I work full-time M-F, so morning, evening, and weekend care for pets is most ideal for me. I can provide morning or night walks during the week, but I am unable to commit to anything long term during weekdays.

Safety, trust & environment

I always prefer to meet the dog/cat before I start services so we can get to know each other and gain each other’s trust. I will also ask client what the pet’s day to day routine is so I can follow it as best as I can to help reduce any stress the pet may experience.

Information Tierney K. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dog is friendly with dogs and people; this will let me know who/what I should avoid while walking the dog. I don't have any breed preferences. I prefer medium or small sized dogs.

A typical day

I will take dogs for long walks to help them release energy. If client has any enrichment items, I can provide this to pets to help stimulate their minds.

Pet care experience

I have a degree in Animal Sciences from Ohio State University. I have 10 years of experience in animal care working in a professional setting, including cleaning living areas and providing medications to animals. I have cared for many pets for up to two weeks at a time. I don’t have my house sitting services turned on at the moment because I prefer not to leave my dog home alone overnight; however, I may be able to work something out if the client would allow me to bring my dog to their place. He is dog/cat friendly and potty trained (this would only be for overnight visits)! I have no greater passion than my love for animals. Please consider letting me care for your fur baby. 😊

Tierney was friendly and a great communicator. My cat warmed up to her immediately. She followed all care instructions and made sure my purrbaby was well cared for while I was away. My cat was content and relaxed when I returned so I know he got ample play time and attention (and food!)

Tierney was great! She was able to help me last minute and take off my pup for a weekend and seems like she and my dog did so well together!

Tierney is an absolute life saver! I was recommended to her by another Rover on a very short notice. She made herself available to come over and watch my dogs for a couple hours at a time. She was fabulous with my two small dogs and made them comfortable, ensured they had time outside, treats, and cuddles. I am so grateful for Tierney! Can’t wait to use her services again in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
