“Aimee was a pleasure to work with. She came to our house and met Daisy before her scheduled drop in visits. It was the first time that we have used Rover and Aimee. We couldn't have been more pleased. Aimee sent photos and updates during the evening. When we got home Daisy was calm (as calm as a (Havanese could be) and was one happy girl! I will use Rover and Aimee again!”


About: I take the time to bond with each pet and treat them with the same care I’d give my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I focus on making every visit stress-free and enjoyable for both the pet and the owner. I’m currently a full time chiropractic student, my schedule allows me to be pretty open either by 12pm or at the latest 3pm. My schedule changes week to week but I’m pretty flexible! In the client’s home, I make sure to follow their pet’s routine exactly—this includes feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, and any specific instructions. I aim to keep their environment calm and consistent to reduce stress. I also keep the home tidy and send regular photo updates for peace of mind.

About: I have had experience with caring for animals my whole life. I have experience training puppies and older dogs as well. I am well experienced with senior dogs! I also have experience in grooming/bathing different breeds of dog, if that is something you would be interested in. I am experienced with cats, horses, guinea pigs and a variety of reptiles. I have volunteered at my local animal shelter, caring for several cats and dogs. I have also completed veterinary science/ animal science classes to learn more about animals in general. Over time I notice that animals sense people, most animals love me and sense that I am a genuine, caring person right off the bat. I don’t have a very busy schedule. I am not employed, so I have a lot of time to care for your fur babies. I am an online student at NKU. So I do all of my school work at home! I have a large fenced in area in the back of my yard. I have large/medium/small kennels if needed for boarding. I will spend a lot of pictures too!

“I was looking for someone to provide drop in visits every other day for our two dogs and so lucky I found Kyra!! She did a great job ensuring my bigger dog was eating as she’s a picky eater, bonded with my small nervous dog right away (which was amazing to see), picked up poop, played with them, did extra things around the house, provided them with their enrichment, and was super communicative. I had no worries that my dogs weren’t in good hands. She even left such a great and beautiful gift for my family! Definitely will be using her again in the future! Thank you so much again!”

I work as an Adjunct Instructor, teaching online classes, while still working part time at the daycare and walking one of my longterm dogs. My schedule is flexible! I don't do overnight visits because of my own animals. However, I like to spend at least half an hour with my furry friends. We can go for a walk or take a play break in their yard/house [weather depending!], whichever is preferred. I usually end my visit with a little time to cuddle, if the pet likes that extra attention.

I would never trust a kennel for my pets but I would most definitely trust Tiffany with not only my pets but my actual kids as well.”
