"Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened" Anatole Fran

I have been animal lover since I took my first steps. In my time as a pet mum and surrogate pet mum I have been fortunate to love more than 100 animals. You can see some of these in my photo gallery.

My name is Kierra. My pets are my babies and loved members of our family.

My family includes my husband and my teenage son as well as Arlington, (a Cavoodle) Piccolo (ragdoll cross) and a fish or few.

I know all too well the extraordinary love, and at times the heartbreak, we experience with our pets, as well as the worries we have when we need to be away from our pets.

That's why I do this! As your surrogate pet mum, I'm here to love your pets when you are unable, to shower them with cuddles and to ensure their hearts and tummies are full. I will never just feed your pet and be on my way, and I pride myself on leaving your home as clean as it was when I arrived.

There is no such thing as a difficult routine. I get it... our pets are routine focused so I'll do my best to accommodate whatever you need.

I've always loved animals of the furry variety and am equally comfortable around the feathered and scaley variety (except those that go "sssss").

I'm experienced in amateur pet photography (you'll get lots of pics), "walkies", cuddles, feeding, medicine and care, and am up for a furry bed companion if that's how they prefer it. I'm also experienced in caring for palliative or ailing animals. I can work with you to ensure any special needs are catered for.

I have a full time but flexible M-F job but caring for animals brings me joy. Let's chat.

Check out my profile gallery for pics of my fur bubbas and those I've cared for and reviews from other pet owners.

***** Christmas 2025*****

I am available for bookings over the Christmas and New Year holidays (until my books fill up). So get in quick!

I may only be able to offer 1x day visits at this time (home visits or 2x visits per day will be dependent on bookings and availability).

*****************************

A few extra details to help answer your questions:

My visit typically includes:

- Feeding your pets

- Filling water bowl

- Offering treats, if a part of your routine

- Cleaning litter areas and refilling litter

- Playtime (with your toys of choice)

- Couch cuddles

- Pet photos (video on request)

- Cleaning feeding areas and utensils

Meet and greet: I am happy to arrange a meet and group to ensure we are all comfortable with the arrangement and most importantly your pet is content.

Keys: The preference is to pick up the keys at the point of meet and greet unless they can be safely left somewhere or we can arrange an alternative collection. I will typically leave the keys inside your home when the booking ends unless advised otherwise.

Multiple animals: I do not charge extra for multiple animals when it comes to house visits.

Length of visit: My visit can be anywhere from 20-45 minutes. I prefer to work with the needs of each animal.

Walks: These are not typically included in a standard house visit. They are included for an overnight stay. We can discuss this at the time of meet and greet. These can also be purchased as an additional booking. A typical walk is 45minutes.

House sits: I can accommodate your pets needs in your own home, and I will treat your home with utmost respect. It is my preference to restrict my house sits to 1-3 days so that I can continue to care for my own pets and family.

Pet stays: Sorry, I'm not in a position to take other pets into my home at the risk of messing with theirs and my own pets' 'zen'. 

Long-term bookings: I can accommodate long term bookings and have minded cats, fish and lizards in their homes for up to 6 weeks. Pet food purchase or prep, litter cleans, parcel management, garbage bins, plant watering, etc. are all part of the service. Let's discuss your specific needs.
