About Krystal
Hello and thanks for stopping by!

I am an avid pet lover who has lived with doggies all my life. I have a big heart for all living beings and truly believe doggies are a HU-mans best friend. I have looked after pets for family and friends on numerous occasions- even one week old newborn puppies!
I started pet sitting semi professionally in the summer of 2021 and haven't stopped since! I now have experience attending to a range of dog breeds and sizes with different temperaments, particularly those that are anxious and have just recently expanded my services to cats.

I will treat your little one as if they are my own fur baby with lots of attention, cuddles, treats and playtime.
I am happy for them sleep with me at night if you allow this in your home.

I provide a free meet and greet service before accepting a booking (unless it is short notice), so that I can get to know you and your pet and understand their needs.

My Services
Walks - adjusted to the requirements and age of your little one (discounted when booked with another service).
House Visits - approx. one hour (any walk booked with this service will be provided in addition to this time).
Overnight Stays - generally from late evening to early morning (walking can be added to this service).
Pet Day Care in your home - my listed fee covers approx. four hours (for additional hours I charge $20 per hour).

With all services I am also happy to take in mail, put the bins out, water the plants, or attend to other small maintenance items, free of charge.

Once a booking is approved, please be sure to process payment within 24 hours so the booking can be solidified. Mad Paws will then hold onto the funds until the booking has been completed upon your approval or trip return. After 24 hours I will no longer be able to hold the dates you have selected.

I am currently located in Parkville, and travel frequently to the North and West so am happy to care for pets in surrounding suburbs.
I am willing to travel to other areas however there may be extra costs involved.

Please note: 20% surcharge applies for public holidays.

Absolutely love Krystal looking after my Quinny. He’s so much more mellow when we come home from a few days away, as he’s been comfortable with his carer.

We had a very happy doggo when we arrived home, plus a lovely tidy house. Krystal sent regular pictures and updates while we were away which was great. Thanks Krystal for taking care of Muddy while we were away 🤩

Krystal was amazing with our cat Quinny. She sent me daily updates and photos and I could see how much he trusted her. Will definitely be using her services again.
