Teacher and lover of animals

Hello everyone! My name is Kira, and I’ve been pet sitting through rover for many years now off and on. Depending on the week and time of year, I may not always have availability to pet sit for you. I will be sure to get back to you to let you know why if I’m not able to. I know your pets are a member of the family, so I want to make sure you feel comfortable leaving your pet in my care. I’m happy to get to know your pet prior to starting pet sitting or walking! I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and volunteered for a year at the Charleston Animal Society with cats and dogs. I love getting to know your pets and each of their personalities. I have experience changing litter boxes, feeding cats and dogs, cooking (if you feed your pet something extra special! :)), walking big and small dogs, offering medicine to cats and dogs, and interacting with more timid pets. I’d love to answer any other questions about me that would help you feel comfortable entrusting your special family members with me!

Kira was wonderful!! Took such great care of our 8 month old puppy for 2 nights while we were away. She was so awesome about communication and sending us photos! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Kira is caring, patient, and responsible with animals of all sorts! She owns cats and keeps them happy and healthy, and we grew up around both cats and dogs. She has helped me with volunteering at an animal shelter to walk dogs, and currently volunteers at an animal shelter helping with a variety of animal care. Kira is a true animal lover - critters of all kinds are in good hands with her!

Kira is awesome! My dog absolutely loves her and showers her with kisses! I love knowing that he has someone that cares stopping by to let him out during the day!

Pets

A typical day

I really enjoy spending time playing with pets and offering them extra love when they don’t have the comfort of their owner like they’re used to. I want to ensure your pets are as comfortable as possible when they don’t have you nearby. I’d love for you to give me ideas of things to do with your pets!

I love all dog and cat breeds, big or small! I’d love to know about your dogs personality before walking him/her to ensure I interact appropriately and can walk them safely. I know some dogs are very enthusiastic while others are very laid back or sometimes very timid. I want to be able to make the walk as enjoyable as possible for your pup! I’d also be interested in knowing how your dog interacts with people and other dogs/animals while on or off the leash to ensure his/her safety throughout our time together! I also love just chatting about animals so really any information you’d want to share would be wonderful :)
