About Kiara

Kiara, a passionate animal lover in her late 20s, has a heart full of compassion and a keen eye for detail. Growing up surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes, she developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. With experience caring for a wide range of animals, including horses, pond and tank fish, dogs, cats, birds, and bunnies, Kiara is well-equipped to handle the most opulent of tails. 

Kiara has lovingly adopted three dogs and two Siamese fighting fish. Today, she shares her home with two rescue cats, each with unique personalities and stories.

As a self-employed professional, Kiara offers flexible scheduling to accommodate your furry friend’s needs. Her caring nature and over a decade of experience in the detail-oriented events industry ensure that she notices even the smallest changes in an animal’s condition, providing timely and effective care.

Kiara is also a committed advocate for animal welfare, studying animal and wildlife courses to expand her services. In her free time, she enjoys exploring vegetarian recipes, bushwalking, rock climbing, and participating in community outreach programs. Kiara’s unwavering commitment to animal well-being ensures your pet’s happiness, comfort, and safety with every visit. Arrange a no-obligation phone call to discuss a tailored pet care plan that fits your busy schedule. 

Owners of Komatsu, Shiba Inu puppy: “We can’t recommend Kiara enough for any services with animals. She was amazing with our puppy Komatsu, not only giving him dedicated attention but also taking him on mindful walks, finding safe new experiences to stimulate him, and loving him like he was her own. Komatsu adores her and always sleeps so soundly after time with Kiara!” 

Owners of Kafka, rescue cat: “Kiara took excellent care of our cat, Kafka while we were away. Despite him being a skittish former stray, she handled him with patience and care, ensuring he was comfortable and well-looked after. We highly recommend her as a reliable and attentive pet sitter” 

Walks - Personalised to your schedule. Potential group walks or dog park visits for friendly pups to socialise. Implementation of prescribed training e.g. sitting prior to crossing roads.

Transportation - Going on holiday and short on space in the car? Need a ride to or from the vet? Looking for someone to pick up and deliver your pet’s essentials like food, litter, toys, treats, or medication?
