Hi I’m Kira!
Owner & Operator
I have been an animal enthusiast my whole life. While living in the Santa Cruz mountains I had my own dog pack of four pups and two cats. I spent my days adventuring and caring for my dogs and I learned to read dog behavior and body language at a young age, which solidified my passion for dog walking. After college I worked for two years at a dog daycare in San Francisco which gave me hands on experience. I learned how to navigate dog play groups, how to prevent and deal with dog fights, safe dog walking techniques and how to entertain a variety of dog personalities. I also began volunteering at local animal shelters which led to fostering for rescue groups. I have fostered hundreds of animals including dogs, puppies, kittens, cats as well as seniors, sick and injured animals. I am overjoyed to offer full time dog walking services. I graduated from the Dog*Biz Dog Walking Academy in 2018. I have a dog walking permit and I am insured, certified in Pet CPR and Pet First Aid.
In my spare time I rescue stray cats and dogs from the streets of Oakland. I am also the founder and operator of my own non-profit called ‘East Oakland Burrito Roll’ which feeds homeless dogs and unhoused people in the East Bay.
Thank you for considering my services. Please send a message here to setup a meet n’ greet or if you have further questions after reading my FAQ here.
