I have known and worked with Crystal for nearly 20 years and she is an excellent physician and great animal owner. She and husband Karl have raised and cared for dogs, goats, chickens, and pigs. I love to get "the tour" when I am at her home. Her doggies have always been been well cared for and loved and when she has been at our place, she has gotten along famously with our pups- even when our son's young, very large, male Artic Shepherd was here. Her calm and warm interaction with pets is apparent and she and Karl are top in responsibility and reliability. She could care for my pets any day!
