Highlights
Pet care experience
Work from home sitter!
***PLEASE NOTE: I only take dogs up to 25lbs for the safety of my two 6lb chihuahuas. Larger senior dogs with low energy and calm demeanor are welcomed**** Your pet's safety is my top priority, and with over 18 years of experience, I've encountered a wide range of situations. I firmly believe that many 'accidents' can be prevented by understanding an animal's body language, using common sense, and taking a proactive approach. In 2023, I completed a 10-week, in-person dog training course, an animal CPR course, and a 6-hour online Master Class with expert trainer Brandon McMillan in 2024, further enhancing my knowledge and skills. When your pet is in my care, you can rest assured that their well-being is top of mind, and they will receive the love, attention, and structure they deserve! I also have hands-on experience in fostering dogs from the Maricopa Animal Control helping them find fur-ever homes. Fostering shelter dogs has given me the honor of working with various dogs such as senior dogs, special needs dogs, fear-based dogs, previously abused animals, and dogs with food aggression issues. While your fur-baby is with me they will be treated with the same love and care as my own pets!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kiki took such amazing care of our senior dog, Felix! She shared timely updates, great photos/videos, and made sure he was well loved at his home-away-from-home over a weekend stay. We highly recommend Kiki and look forward to rebooking soon!
Kiki was fantastic and treated our dog as if it were her own. Would highly recommend her!
Thank you so much Kiki for taking such good care of our babies While we were gone. We have never left our dogs this long and felt so comfortable with Kiki and knew they were being taking good care of. We got pictures videos and updates each day and it made all the difference for us knowing they were so happy and getting their walks and so much love and attention. Highly recommended Kiki! She is So natural and good with dogs making everything so comfortable for them. Such a wonderful experience we will use her again and could not be more happy and grateful! Thank you for such a wonderful and trusted experience!
This is just the second time I booked with Kiki. At drop off, Lucky behaved like it was visiting an old friend. She is typically nervous when we leave her but IMO she was torn when we left her. Kiki pays attention and seems to observe the temperament of the pup to know what’s needed. She is wonderful and I will definitely book with her again.
My pup had a great stay with Kiki while I was away. Kiki sent photo updates throughout the stay and was quick to respond to any questions I had. I love that Kiki has such a thorough process to get to know the pet prior to staying with her to ensure that my pup and I felt comfortable. Overall I would highly recommend Kiki for all of your pet sitting needs!
If I could give Kiki 10 stars, I would. She truly loves dogs and took amazing care of our little pup, which ended up requiring some extra TLC because of an allergy breakout. She kept us up to speed with photos and other info, and it was so comforting to know Jojo was in such good hands. Will definitely book with Kiki again next time we need a sitter!

Schedule
My partner and I both work from home full time so our dogs are by our side all day! We do not have a doggie door but we do let them outside every two hours.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home has a large fenced-in backyard with a swimming pool. We also have various grates installed in our home to block off rooms in order to separate new dogs that may need a day or so of decompression while adjusting for their stay. We keep our Rover dogs in our bedroom at night to sleep while our dogs stay crated at night in the kitchen area. Your dog will have free range of our home while they are here and will most likely be in either of our home offices while we work so we can keep an eye on them.
Pets
A typical day
I love busting out the snuff matte and watching the dogs hunt for treats. - Going to the park right by my house to run free on the tennis courts. - Walks - Lick mattes - Tug of war - Fetch - Conditioning with known commands - Couch cuddles
