A typical day

I love to go on walks with the dogs I’m watching. There is a nice walking trail by my home which makes for a great adventure. I’ve even visited local dog parks if pet owners are okay with it.

Energetic & trustworthy pet lover

Pet care experience

12+ Years of experience working with and caring for both dogs and cats. Briefly worked the summer at the Lake Forest Kennel Club taking care of and spending time with boarded cats and dogs. I’ve personally cared for numerous family pets. In addition, I have also had numerous "exotic" pets from rats to snakes and have taken car of numerous other "exotics" as well. No pet is off-limits to me! I have volunteered at numerous animal shelters in the Chicagoland area and gained valuable animal care experience. I'm an animal lover at heart, and enjoy taking care of and spending time with all animals!

Kira was absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning, she was kind, friendly, understanding, and incredibly flexible. She made the entire experience stress-free and kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos of our dog playing with her dogs, which gave us so much peace of mind. Honestly, it never felt like we were leaving our dog with a stranger. Kira made both us and our dog feel so comfortable, and it was clear that she genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she watches. Our dog looked so happy, relaxed, and well cared for throughout the stay. I’m beyond impressed with the level of care and attention she provided. I wholeheartedly recommend Kira to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again whenever we need a sitter. Thank you, Kira, for taking such amazing care of our furry family member!

Kira recently watched my dog Nalla for 2 weeks while I was on a family vacation. While I was away Kira kept me updated often and sent plenty of pictures! Her dogs were very friendly with mine and they loved to play, I was kept a peace of mind my entire vacation knowing Nalla was in good hands. When I returned, Nalla was just as happy and healthy as always and I could tell that she was well treated. I will definitely rebook with Kira if I need a sitter in the future!

Kira was great with communication and addressing our concerns. Rocco enjoyed playing with her dog. He was a happy dog when we picked him up.

Super responsive from the start—quick replies and kept us totally relaxed. Ellie (who’s shy with new people) was clearly well-loved: patient care, exact feeding schedule, and she came home happy. Highly Recommended.
