*pet sitting only* Hi there! I am a 5 star rated pet sitter in the South Austin area, and I love animals! I have cared for my pets and friends/family pets since I was 12 years old. I am a reliable, friendly, and kind animal lover. I understand fully how your pet is a part of your family and should be cared for as such. I look forward to making your life a little easier by checking in on your cat or walking and visiting with your dog. I am happy to watch animals in my home or happy to watch them in their home. I have recently moved to South Austin, but I am not against still watching pets up north 🙂 Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have. Hope to hear from you soon 😁

Crystal is a phenomenal pet sitter! She is very responsive and provides daily updates and photos when watching my pup. I highly recommend her!

I have interned for 2 years at Riverplace Elementary being apart of the Ready, Set, Teach program when I attended Vandegrift High School. I worked with a classroom full of first and second graders. Additionally I have volunteered with pre-k (4 year olds). I have also babysat family friends children in the past ages ranging from 1-7 years old. I have also nannied for a little over a year with two kiddos since they were 4 months and 2 years old.I would say I am a quick learner, very outgoing and caring. I love working with kids and will find multiple activities to make sure they are happy and having a great time. My major is elementary education early childhood to 6th grade.

I retired 6 years ago and moved to Austin after living in Dallas for 35 years. I raised 4 kids, 3 and under while working full time and maintaining my sanity ;-) My kids are all grown and now I have two grandkids 4 and 10 months here that I help out with when needed. My 4 year old grandson spends the night with me and is always asking to come over to my place. I also tutor math at one of the middle schools. I have hosted 9 international exchange students for a year of high school and still involved in the program though I don’t host any longer. I speak passable Spanish as well. I learned when raising my family how to be flexible, organized, creative and loving. I like to have fun and interact with my grandkids. We don’t watch a lot of television but instead play age appropriate games that are fun and interactive. I can bring the same fun, loving experience to you.
