Crystal’s Pet Sitting

Pet sitting, or doing drop off visits at the owners home. Hello everyone! I am Crystal Van Daalen. Please let me know if you have any questions!
(4)

I started watching pets really young, mainly for my parents friends, and then word of mouth traveled and more people would ask me to watch their pets and it recently turned into a small business! I have always loved animals, and it's like I understand them on a deeper level and try to really understand them. I have worked for two animal shelters, voluntered at many, donate as much as I can, and tr

ansport rescue animals. I come to your home, and pet sit them in their own home so they are more comfortable. I love to do a meet and greet before hand, meet everyone, understand the animal (s) personality, food, watering, potty habits (fenced in yard, or leash), if they take any medicine, and anything else you want me to know! Rates are $40 a night, and an additional $10 a night if you are 30+ miles away from Waverly.

Hello everyone, I am Crystal! I have pet sat for over 15 years, worked in two animal shelters, transport rescue animals, volunteer at my favorite animal shelter, and I am obsessed with animals! I have some available dates still, and would love to meet new animals and watch them! I live in Waverly, and travel up to 30 miles to pet sit, if it’s over 30 miles it is an additional $10 per night. Stays within 30 miles are $50 per night. First we set up a meet and greet at your home so I can meet your animals and learn everything about them, where their food is, how much food they get, where they go potty, any fun quirks they have, and how to care for them! I stay at your home with your pets, so they are more comfortable and less changes for them. I do work 3am-8am on the week days, but usually the animals stay sleeping.😴 Let me know if any of these dates work with you, or to see if any other dates beyond April work! December 9th-16th, January 1st-3rd, 6th-14th, February 10th-13th, 24th-27th, March 10th-14th, 17th-26th, April 1st-4th, 7th-17th, and 21st-24th. Thank you!! Last picture is my dog after going outside in the rain. ❤️

UPDATED: Hello everyone! I am booking up, and wanted to share my availability. For pet sitting, first I do a meet and greet with you, and your animals, to learn about your pets, where they go to the bathroom, how much they eat and when they eat, and talk about when you are leaving and come back. I come to your home, watch them in your home, stay the nights with them and treat them like my own pets! ❤️ I charge $50/ night and take Venmo, cash or check. If you are over 30 miles away from Waverly, it is an additional $10/ night. I do work 3:30am-8am Monday- Friday, but usually they stay sleeping! 😴 Let me know if you have any questions!

I have had so much fun the last couple weeks with these four little cuties!! One thing they are so not, is boring! They are all playful, and love to shred anything they possibly can, especially paper plates and napkins! They are so cuddly, and love to all sit in my lap at once. 🥰

What do you guys think of Mollys bangs? I brushed her fur forward so it looks like she has bangs 🤣

This month I am watching these four fun, active, wild 😜 pups! They all love when I get in the recliner chair and all of them jump in my lap! They all are so sweet and love being pet and cuddled! ❤️

Hello everyone! This is my updated schedule, almost a year of dates. The shaded gray means I am not available. Let me know if you have any questions! 🥰

I got to watch these two kitties, and they were so good! Ollie is the handsome orange tabby, and Catie is the beautiful long haired. They were such great cats, I hope they open up to me more on their next stay! Thank you for letting me watch your babies! ❤️🐾

When the love of animals first started. This was my first pet, a sheltie puppy named Jasmine. I was so excited that we got our very own puppy!! Since then. I have felt a strong passion and love towards almost all animals (jury is still out on geese, they can be pretty scary), and wanting to help and play with them. Animals are way more than just pets to me, they are a part of family, and they show emotions, and care, just like we do. 🫶🏽🐾

This is one of my favorite cats (don’t tell the others!) to visit, she is very vocal, and pretty independent. She does love her pets! Tonight she was kneading with only one paw! 🐾

Hello everyone!! This is my availability right now. I am full for October, and I am not booking anymore stays for January because I am hoping to do something, and it will take up some time. So what do I do for pet sits? I come to your home and do a meet and greet with you and your animals, learn about them, and your home. Then we set up when I pick up keys from you, or give me a code for the doors, and then I come and let the dogs out, feed and water them, clean up any messes the animals (or I😆) make, and I stay at your home, so the animals have less changes, and are more comfortable. I love to send updates and pictures to the owners, and stay up to date with them. I charge by the night, so if I get there on a Monday and you come back home on Friday, it would be Monday night, Tuesday night, Wednesday night, and Thursday night, so $50/ night it would be $200. Let me know if you have any questions!

09/12/2024

November 4th-14th, 18th-22nd, December 9th-12th, 20th-31st, February 10th-13th, 24th-27th, March 10th-14th and 17th-27th.

Willie being silly

Is that a goose? No it’s just Willie asking for food 🤣

Is he staring at me?

We met a puppy at the hotel!!

Hello everyone, I just got back from Vegas and trying to catch up on my sleep, which is hard when you walk over 40 miles and do so much in such a short time!! We were SO EXCITED when we saw this baby!! 🫶🏽🫶🏽

I call this TIPPY TAPPY!

Willie was so excited he was running around and it sounded like a tap dance! So cute Willie!!

Maisy and Bella are so cuddly and so sweet! They have 4 cat siblings, two chinchilla brothers, and one Guinea pig sister! I have never felt a chinchilla and wow he was sooo soft!!! Thank you for letting me watch them!
