About Kira V.

Communication

3 repeat pet parents
100% response rate
Usually responds in under half an hour
80% bookings with photo updates

Skills

35 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Special needs dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I come with a ADA companion who is very dog friendly, well mannered and behaved (and deaf). I can leave her home when needed, but she LOVES friends and the outdoors. Along with my extensive background with training, I’m also EXTREMELY hyper-vigilant to dog’s emotions and needs. Having a deafie has only heightened the awareness that I already possessed to ensure safety at all times while still enjoying the life of a dog.

Information Kira V. would like to know about your pet

Let me know of any behavioral or health needs for your pet ahead of time so so that I can accommodate for our meet and greet.

A typical day

Lots of love and cuddles will be provided, walks or dog park trips. I carry a dog backpack at all times full of necessities or emergency supplies

Lifetime of dog training with ❤️

Pet care experience

I was raised by a shelter worker and started care and training at a very young age for all types of animals and spent much of my life in the shelter or fostering animals for their new lives to come, because they deserve happiness. Social, behavioral, hand signals you name it. It’s been an enormous part of all of my life. They are not just pets, they are FAMILY!

kira was amazing! i was at an active housesitting booking but something unexpected came up at my apartment and had to go back home and help - i found kira, i was very overwhelmed at the thought of how long id have to be gone but kira was very supportive and communicative, she was willing to help us all out and did a great job at everything. never doubted her skills and kindness for a heartbeat!💗

Kira and her pup were great! Our dog Hatcher absolutely loved having them hangout with him for the week. She was very good about keeping us updated and sending us pictures daily :) We felt very good about leaving our dog in her hands and are looking forward to using her again in the future!!

Kira is awesome! She always goes above and beyond and truly cares about our dogs and chickens. There's always great communication too. The next time we need a pet sitter we will call Kira!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
