My two-story apartment has 3 friendly dogs (1 tiny, 1 small, 1 medium) and all dogs are allowed to roam freely. The basement where my bedroom is has a big living space that's perfect for playing. There's a grassy patch of land across the street where we take the dogs for potty breaks, and we usually take the dogs to Norris Square for their walks.

Information Jhoana "Kira" P. would like to know about your pet

Since there are three other dogs in the apartment, I do require all dogs staying with me to be friendly and up to date on their shots and flea and tick meds. Thank you for understanding!

A typical day

I will play and run around with the dogs in my two-story apartment and take them to Norris Square for a long walk! If your dog needs mental stimulation, I'll be more than happy to tailor playtime to their needs as well.

Worry-free boarding for your dogs ❤

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Kira 🤗 I board dogs under 20lbs and here's what I'm offering: • 3-4 daily walks (more if needed) • Dogs welcome on all furniture and can sleep in bed with me • Lotsa photos and videos during their stay • Playtime tailored to your dog's preferences and energy level • Plenty of cuddles and affection for dogs who enjoy them • Respectful space for independent, shy, or low-contact dogs • Playmates for maximum socialization! There are 3 resident dogs and I host up to 3 boarders at a time. I'm basically running a daycare 🤣 • Meet and Greets are required to ensure all dogs get along! As a devoted dog mom, I know how hard it can be to leave your babies in someone else's care. But I'm here to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where both you and your pup can feel at ease. I'm semi-retired and work from home, so I can give the pups plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. They will enjoy 3–4 walks daily (or more if needed), along with dedicated playtime tailored to their individual personalities, energy levels, and preferences. All dogs are welcome on the furniture and are free to sleep in bed with me if they choose. Whether your pup loves to play, cuddle, explore, or simply relax, I'll do my best to make them feel right at home! I've had two rescue dogs of my own since 2021, both of whom I adopted when they were 5–6 years old. My experience with dog care goes back even further, helping care for a family member's senior dog and was heavily involved in their daily routine. I'm especially experienced with senior dogs, administering medications, basic grooming, and caring for pups who may be anxious, independent, mildly grumpy, or simply prefer having their own space respected. At the same time, I'm active and energetic enough to keep up with younger dogs and those young at heart. I'm happy to match their energy level and make sure they get the physical and mental stimulation they need.

Kira did a great job of looking after my dog. I wasn’t sure he would get along with her dogs, but we did a meetup with them first. I was very happy to see them all getting along so well together. Kira regularly provided me with photos and videos of my dog having fun with her dogs, which I greatly appreciated. The only thing I didn’t like/was surprised by was that she brought another, bigger dog to stay while he was there. My dog is often intimidated by and becomes aggressive around bigger dogs, so I was worried about this. My dog also began peeing (or “marking”, as she called it) in Kira’s house regularly, which he doesn’t usually do when he’s home with me. I don’t know if that coincided with the big dog arriving there. Kira began putting a band (kind of a diaper) around my dog to keep him from marking. I told her that I wasn’t happy about him wearing the band, and she removed it. I don’t know if there were any issues with him marking after that. Overall, I think Kira did a good job taking care of my dog.
