Your Dog Takes Priority

Pet care experience

I work for 1 client at a time - and I can board up to 2 of your dogs - so you can rest assured that your dog takes priority. I have 7-year-old mixed breed dog, Ace, at home who is super sweet and great adjusting to other dogs' size and energy. I grew up with dogs, cats, chickens and horses, and my love of animals has stayed with me since my childhood. I believe that pets are part of the family and should be cared for as such. I am patient and energetic, so your dog will have plenty of TLC and exercise! No need to worry about your 4 legged children while you're away. I've been on Rover for a while, and have loved meeting so many amazing dogs and their human companions. I look forward to their visits and am careful to make sure the pups feel comfortable and safe. While at home, your dog is free to roam around and find their favorite spot to relax. We go for walks in the woods, play at the dog park, or stay closer to home, depending on your dog's personality and needs.

First time using Rover....It went very smoothly, and Tina was of course part of that smooth process. Buddy isn't the easiest...aggressive with other dogs, back issues...almost 14 years old now, and still it went smooth. We had updates, pictures....we didn't have to worry. Thanks Tina and Barbara.

We were very very happy having our dog Coco stay with Tina last week! She kept in touch throughout the week with pictures and comments! When we picked her up, it was obvious that both Tina and Coco had enjoyed spending time together . It is very clear that Tina likes animals and takes caring for them very seriously! Hats off to Tina for a job well done! And to show how confident we are in Tina, our sweet Coco is going back at the end of the month for another stay! Thanks, Tina! You are great!!

Wonderful home to board your dog. My lab mix, Cam, came down with an ear infection while staying with Tina, and she handled the situation with all of the courtesy and professionalism that I could've asked for. Would absolutely board with Tina again!

Information Tina K. would like to know about your pet

How is your dog on leash? Do they get along with other dogs? What is their usual routine? Does your dog have any special needs? The more I know, the better!

A typical day

On their stay with me, your dog can feel free to make themselves comfortable. They're welcome on the bed if you are OK with that, and we'll spend lots of time outside. I live close to the Ellerbe Creek trail, and I love checking out new places to go hiking. I love having conversations with dogs, even if they’re one-sided :)
