Kira was very accommodating with my dog and our schedule. We were running late on our way back and she stayed up late to watch our little guy. She’s a fantastic sitter

Kira and her family have been taking care of my Sooki for a number of years now, so I trust her immensely. You can tell immediately that Kira loves animals. She is kind, conscientious, and follows directions perfectly. If you have a request she follows up quickly and follows through. Your pet will be well taken care of ! I highly recommend her for all of your pet care needs.

Kira watched our Lola multiple times, caring for her as if she was her own dog. Lola is a loving dog so it was no surprise that she took to Kira quickly, but of all the dog sitters we've had Lola would get the most excited about Kira. Lola is a 60lb pit mix and Kira had absolutely no problem handling her and caring for her. Can solidly recommend Kira for watching dogs of similar size and temperament. Five stars :)

Kira is a very good friend of mine. She had walked my dog and it was the best experience! 10/10 would recommend! She’s the best!
