UNAVAILABLE NOTICE: I’ll have no internet access from March 2-9, 2024. Sorry for the inconvenience. Please email me at crystalscozycare@gmail.com during that time in regard to anything after March 10th since text and phone mail will not download correctly when we get back. If you don’t hear back from me by March 10th, please try me again since that means your email got eaten by the hordes.

If you’re an existing client, you can text Taylor or Amanda directly and they’ll let me know of any booking changes when I get back. Thanks!

Services

I started Crystal’s Cozy Care Pet Sitting out of Spring, TX in late February 2014 and we have had hundreds of furry and scaly clients since then! We cover a 15 minute radius from Louetta and Kuykendahl, which is a big chunk of Spring, TX.

We provide 30+ minute vacation visits, 15 or 30 minute midday potty breaks, litter box scooping, and other basic sorts of home visits. Just a heads up that we are not the dog walkers for puppers that pull much since I feel old. We are definitely the sitters for you if you just want your pets truly loved on while you travel or need some midday help!

– We’ll make a specific plan together before you leave based on your pets’ routines (including medications).
– We can also put out your trash, gather your mail, bring in the newspapers, and turn on or off your lights as requested and this is included in the basic price.
– We will send you updates and pictures during or after each visit, so you always know your little ones are doing well.

Experience

– We’ve taken care of more than 650 pets professionally since February 2014 and have made literally thousands of visits.
– My husband and I were foster parents for SMART Animal Rescue
– I volunteered with the Houston SPCA for 2 years.
– We fostered for Pughearts: Houston Pug Rescue for a year.
– We don’t just love on dogs and cats.  We visit and care for rabbits, ferrets, Guinea pigs, hamsters, other small mammals, snakes, other reptiles, amphibians, birds, spiders, and fish.
– Taylor Herman has been our full-time sitter since March 2022 and he covers 100-200 visits PER MONTH!
– Amanda Martinez is our weekend pet sitter since August 2023 and she covers mostly Sundays, our bunny clients, and thankfully helps out during our busiest times as needed.

General Pricing

Our rates are job specific.  We will work out all of the details in advance in text or email and again during our initial consultation (aka, pre-meet) with you and your pets.

  • Generally, our basic visit rate is $27.50-$32.50 per 30 minute visits or $22.50-$27.50 for 15 minute potty breaks/litter box scooping for 1-2 pets.  Your specific rate is based on location, how many pets, their exact needs and routine, etc.  For example, 2 pups with no special needs about 10 minutes from Louetta and Kuykendahl would be $30 per visit for a half hour or $25 per visit for 15 minutes. Additional pets would be $2.50-$5 each per visit depending on their needs.
  • There are $5 per visit fee additions for special needs that require special services like doggy insulin injections and/or based on your location in respect to our coverage area.
  • Holidays and jobs scheduled with less than 72 hours (3 days) notice come with a $10 additional per visit fee.
  • If you cancel us with more than 72 hours notice, there is no charge.  If you cancel us with less than 72 hours notice but more than 24 hours, there is a 50% fee on the visits in that window.  Any visits cancelled with less than 24 hours notice will need to be covered in full.

“Holidays” for Crystal’s Cozy Care are defined as these exact calendar days – New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Day, Easter Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Veteran’s Day, Thanksgiving Day, Black Friday, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day.

Initial Consultation

This initial consultation/pre-meet is free and usually lasts around an hour.  All further meet-and-greets with new pets, key drops offs, key pick-ups if you didn’t have the copies made already, etc. are $20.   Please only schedule the initial consultation if you are 99% sure about hiring us.  This meeting is to:

  • Verify that we are a good fit for each other
  • Work out the visit details
  • Give us our key copies (2) or code access to your home
  • Secure your needed visit/overnight times in our schedule by giving us your 50% deposit

Feel free to ask us anything you want on the phone or in email in advance to ensure that we’re the pet sitters for you before scheduling the pre-meet.  In order to book a job with us the first time, at least 50% of your total payment is due in advance (usually at the pre-meet).  Without the minimum 50% deposit, your needed times are not locked in.  The remaining balance it due upon the first visit (either left in your home or paid electronically).

I promise we will impress you.

We do accept cash, checks made to “Crystal’s Cozy Care”, Venmo, Zelle, or credit cards via Paypal:

We Accept Cash and All Major Credit Cards!
