Kiara’s Pet Sitting
About
I love animals and have been around them for all of my life. Therefore, I am very passionate about each and every job I get. I am reliable, organized, responsible, friendly, and I have a flexible schedule. I offer multiple levels of service and always make sure that I go above and beyond for both the animals I'm watching and for my customers. I am 17 years old and enrolled in an online academy with a 4.0 GPA. I am a two time recipient of the Kiwanis Club Hope of America Award. I am also a licensed driver. I have experience volunteering with Simi Valley Missing Pets for about six years, and I have four of my own dogs. Feel free to text or call me at (805) 823-3320.
I love getting to spend time with animals, getting to play with them, and getting to see their different personalities. Each animal is different, which makes my job very exciting and ever-changing.
