About: Hi, I’m Kira, a lifelong dog lover and recent dog parent! I offer dependable walks, daycare, and in-home sitting that keep your pets active, comfortable, and cared for like family. I believe every dog deserves personalized attention and plenty of playtime. You can count on clear communication, safe routines, and extra snuggles along the way. Whether it’s a quick walk or a cozy overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pup feels right at home. I’m available Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for dog walks, whether your pup needs a quick potty break or a long, active stroll, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise and love. On weekends, I offer walks by appointment and house sitting, giving your pet consistent care and comfort while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to let someone care for your dog, and I don’t take that lightly. Before any booking, I love doing a meet & greet to learn your dog’s routines, personality, and comfort needs, it helps me create a calm, consistent environment where they feel at home. I live in a cozy one-bedroom condo with no yard, but dogs get plenty of outdoor time through regular walks and potty breaks. I choose safe, quiet routes and tailor each walk to your pup’s energy and comfort level. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, loved, and completely cared for, whether we’re out exploring or relaxing inside.

Douglas Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kozue was incredibly friendly with my 6month old puppy during our meet and greet and was exceptionally willing to accommodate my specific requests for the walk. She was very communicative before and after the walk, and I will absolutely be requesting walks with her in the future.
Emily is wonderful! I asked to her to walk my Maggie when our usual walker was out of town and couldn’t be happier! She’s extremely responsive and caring, and is great with Maggie. I’m not part of Emily’s usual schedule but I would request her as a walker anytime! Thank you, Emily!!!
