Reliable💜Attentive💜Compassionate

Hi, I'm Kira! I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I've developed a natural knack for building fast trust and strong bonds with pets of all shapes and sizes.My background includes caring for a massive variety of animals. If it has four legs, feathers, scales, or a tail, there’s a very good chance I’ve safely cared for one! My experience spans across: Dogs & Cats: All sizes, ages, energy levels, and temperaments. Exotic & Farm Pets: Birds, chickens, chinchillas, turtles, frogs, fish, and lizards. 💊 Medication & Senior Care Experience:I am comfortable and experienced with administering pet medications (oral, topical, or mixed with food), ensuring your pet never misses an essential dose while you are away. As the proud owner of a sweet 11-year-old Husky who is my absolute world, I also have extensive personal experience with breed-specific behaviors, hip/joint awareness, and the exact patience and routine required for aging pets. Because of my background, I've always been the go-to person for friends and family when they need someone they can completely trust with their homes and animals. I deeply understand that every pet has their own unique personality and routine. I bring a lifelong background of animal handling to every visit, ensuring your pets are kept safe, comfortable, and thoroughly loved. I’m available 7 days a week! My first appointments begin at 7:00 AM, and my last appointments begin at 8:00 PM. Same-day requests are welcome when my schedule allows.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable trusting someone with your furry family member and your home. When caring for pets in their space, I treat their routine and environment with the utmost respect. I follow your instructions carefully, keeping safety my top priority, while making sure your pets receive plenty of genuine companionship and affection while you are away. I am also fully insured, providing you with an added layer of safety, professionalism, and absolute peace of mind while your pets are in my care.

Dog Walking • Sep 20, 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kira was absolutely AMAZING! She walked my two dogs, Simon and Sophie, for five consecutive days, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the very beginning, Kira was warm, loving, attentive, and genuinely wonderful with both of them. Simon and Sophie absolutely fell in love with her, and it was clear that the feeling was mutual! ❤️🐾 There is something incredibly comforting about knowing your fur babies are in the hands of someone who treats them with the same love and care that you do. Kira went above and beyond, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the attention, affection, and kindness she showed my two little loves. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, and truly loves animals, Kira is your person! Simon, Sophie, and I give her five stars and a million tail wags! We can’t wait to have her back! 🐶💕

Kira's first visit with our 3 great danes went beautifully. They were happy, calm, and well behaved with her. I feel confident that they are in good hands and with someone who truly understands and loves them. We will all be happy to have her visit again.

Kira cares for our pets when we are away. She is trustworthy and reliable. I trust her over the big companies that charge an arm a a leg.

Our dog Austin adores Kyra and is always so excited to see her. She sends ridiculously cute photos of their walks together. She has been flexible and we are so appreciative of her assistance in taking care of our dog.

We were out of town for a week and Kira did an amazing job! We set a time of 11:00AM each day we were gone to come visit, give our fur babies some food and attention, and she delivered each and every day. We also received cute daily pictures of Kira hanging out with our babies. We were worried about leaving them at home all day and Kira set all of our worries to rest. We look forward to hiring her again!
