Pet care experience

Dogs, cats, & TURTLES?!

No matter how BIG or small, we welcome all!! BARK! I'm Kira and I have about 15 years of professional wildlife experience. While I travel the east coast for 6 months of the year working with Sea Turtles, the other 6 months of my life is spent being a home maker and working from our house in Upstate NY, Kingston. OUR HOME! We live in a calm and safe neighborhood with little traffic that is perfect for some low stress potty time walks. We also have a fenced in backyard as well as a pet friendly pet play room for dogs & cats. No matter how BIG/ small &old/young, we welcome all!! I have taken time to make sure our home is the perfectly calm and safe space for your pet to stay while you are away. I take care to closely monitor the health, attitude, food schedules and potty times down to the specifications of the owner requests. *BOARDING* Meet “Matt”, my fur friend loving partner. He has years of professional pet care experience from working at a local doggy day care in Kingston, NY. He is a gentle and loving man who loves all animals of all sizes. He will also be active and around to help care for and provide attention to your fur friend like walks and feedings. **FUN NOTE: I play around with some non-professional photography and I would love to keep you updated throughout your time away from your fur friend with photos and videos of how they are doing! Please feel from to reach out with any questions :) With owners permission, there is a dog park within a walking distance from our home that we would love to take your fur friend to during potty times to get out some energy and meet some other fur friends.

House Sitting • Jan 06, 2026

Kira is *fantastic*! Super communicative and friendly, and she took amazing care of our pets and house while we were away. During our trip, we were thrilled to get photos of our very shy cat hanging out with Kira (a rare occurrence for a petsitter), and our very social, attention-loving dog was in great spirits when we got home. We couldn't believe the fresh and clean house we returned home to! We loved having Kira, and will enthusiastically invite her back!

Our pup clearly connected with Kira and was treated as part of her family. We received regular updates and photos. She is great with animals and we highly recommend her.

Kira provided excellent care for my elderly cat! She went above and beyond to make sure the cat had all that she needed, sent super cute photos, and left my home neat and orderly with some much appreciated extra touches.

Kira took wonderful care of our dog Ray — was super flexible, reliable and communicative. Would highly recommend and hope to have her help again in the future!

Kira is the most caring pet sitter. She has helped me with my dog on a long road trip and has also been very helpful with her sisters dog on another road trip. Kira has an affinity for animals and a great understanding of pet needs. In addition to being responsible and trustworthy, Kira also grew up with animals and puts her heart into everything she does. Anyone would be lucky to have Kira as their pet sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and a big home that is built to keep your pet comfortable while you are away. We have lots of pet safe toys for your dog or cat. While being a safe space, we have no other pets in our home for those little guys who don't get along with other fur friends.

A typical day

I believe some of the best walks involves some good sniffs! I take lots of care to meet the exercise needs of each individual fur friend which includes going on walks, games, dog and cat friendly toys, training, and of course the occasional treat.
