Qualified, experienced, passionate!
Pet care experience
I am Level 3 qualified in Animal Care, which provided me with in depth knowledge of husbandry and welfare. I also have a domestic animal first aid qualification, and a good basic education in healthcare and triage skills for cats, dogs and small pets. I have worked in both daycare centre and animal shelters with a range of breeds and species from great danes to bunnies to kittens! At home, I own a 4 year old staffie x greyhound (a literal handful at 35kg!), a 17 year old collie x whippet, a senior special needs cat, and a gaggle of lizards, rodents and creepy crawlies. For me, no breed or need is too difficult to care for! I am extremely passionate about animals, and genuinely enjoy creating safe, comfortable and positive experiences for the pets under my care in previous work placements. I am working towards my degree in Animal Behaviour, and am very confident working with behavioral and welfare needs of pets with reactivity, training requirements or medical complications.
Reviews
Excellent service again from Keira today, Barney always enjoys his walks with Keria, and he falls fast asleep a happy dog after them. I would definitely recommend Keira to take good care of your dog too. Thanks Keira we will definitely be booking another walk soon.
Keira was brilliant walking my six month old border terrier, Wilbur! Keira was very professional and trustworthy, providing updates and photos. Wilbur had a great time on his walk! Would definitely recommend.
Brilliant, trust worthy and Caring sitter. Keira looked after Barney overnight and we were totally relaxed knowing he was in good hands. Keira kept us updated with all of his antics and we loved seeing all of the photos she sent to us. Definitely recommend Keira
Keira was brilliant, very easy going and trustworthy. She looked after our 10 month old Labrador (Murphy) over the course of two days, asked lots of great questions during the pre-visit and sent plenty of updates with photos of everything she was getting up to with Murphy, including some training she helpfully offered. We will definitely use Keira again! 😊

I’m happy to follow or develop any behavioral/training strategies, just let me know!
A typical day
I love taking my dogs for new adventures in exciting places, we particularly enjoy a place with new smells and sights to wear them out! I am a big fan of enrichment activities both food and non, and my dogs are no stranger to a snuffle mat or a treat treasure hunt. I love teaching new tricks (to both cats and dogs!!), and would be happy to work on both trick training and behaviour management training as requested.

I currently study full time, though my lecture schedule is very flexible week to week and my weekends are always available. I generally have plenty of weekday availability, and am happy to make pet care a priority alongside my studies.
