Hello there! My name is Kira Erzen and I am currently a senior nursing student at University of Portland. When I lived at home I had an English springier spaniel, cat, and beta fish. I have also own hamsters, hermit crabs and a variety of birds. In addition, I have experience house sitting for a variety of dogs and cats. Currently I have one 2 year old Australian Shepherd mix and a 6 month of kitten at home that I take care of and love like crazy. Exercise is a big part of my day and I would be happy to take your dog out to a dog park, play with them indoors or whatever you are most comfortable with. I also have experience with cooking dog/cat friendly foods if your beloved pet is having a birthday I would be sure to bake something fun and healthy for them! I have some training with house breaking puppy's and have no problem cleaning up any messes they may create. I am extremely flexible with whatever services you want from me and will be sure to fulfill those duties to the best of my abilities. Finally, being a college student I am no stranger to a textbook and research. If your four legged buddy happens to have a certain disorder, disease or any type of special need out of the norm I will be sure to do plenty of research on your pets breed and special need so that I can come fully prepared. What this also means is that I have no problem with working with more difficult animals in regards to needing a very special diet or have behavioral issues or whatever may be the case. I look forward to working with you and having an amazing time with your pet(s)!
