Doggy Day Care in Belle Meade

“Robin was amazing! What a blessing that we had the chance to find her. She took great care of our 2 small dogs and made them feel welcome! She was extremely attentive in taking care of them and their needs. Thank you Robin!!”

“Christopher was great. My 1 year old pup had no issues. Christopher was very quick to response to all my questions and provided updates during the stay.”

“Luigi had tons of fun at daycare today, thanks Ashley! Loved seeing all the pictures taken throughout his day and happy to hear he did well on his leash/walks too :)”

“Amanda really came to my rescue when I made plans to be out of town all day. I have two small dogs with their own quirks but Amanda took wonderful care of them and spent time getting to know each dog at the meet and greet to insure a successful stay. I recommend Amanda and will book with her again. Thank you!”

Amelia M.

“Amazing job with my pup!”

Sydney G.

“Elizabeth was so great with our dog and her dog George was a great playmate with Mila! She kept me informed throughout the day and sent us a great video. Looks like they had a photoshoot as the rover card had great pictures. Highly recommend!”

Drew H.

“This was our first time having other folks watch Clemmie and we appreciate the care and photos! Megan and Kerry have a great set up, and our pup had fun playing! Excited to have her go back for more fun.”

About: Dogs and cats are the center of my world! I have over 11 years of paid and volunteered hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets, including my own animals and those I’ve fostered through rescue organizations. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life but over the past 11 years I have volunteered at various animal shelters and provided the services offered on Rover through word-of-mouth and other platforms/websites! I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages—from newborns to seniors—and pets with medical conditions, special needs, and behavioral challenges. I also have experience with birds, rabbits, and some reptiles. My family owns a farm so I have experience providing care for farm animals as well! What sets me apart is my ability to quickly assess and adapt to each pet’s unique personality and requirements. I’m especially patient and attentive with nervous or reactive animals, and I’m experienced in administering medications, maintaining structured routines, and creating calm, secure environments for animals in transition. AND I just might take the cutest/funniest candid photos of your pet that you’ve ever seen. Check out my photo gallery of cute fur babies I’ve loved on! Fostering has also given me valuable experience with socialization, basic training, post-surgery care, and working with pets recovering from trauma or neglect. I genuinely love building trust with animals and helping them feel safe, which is something pet owners consistently appreciate when they leave their companions in my care. IMPORTANT NOTES: *Per request, and with Rover’s support, I have created an additional fees menu. Additional fees allow me to serve a larger population of clients and provide more specialized services (e.g. long distance, around the clock housesitting, 90-120 min walks or drop-ins). Long distance fee- +$20 per visit for 15-24 miles away and +$35 per visit if 25-35 miles away (this will differ if the booking is housesitting) 90 min visit- +$16 2 hour visit- +$30 24/7 house sitting (I will only leave your pet in the event of a personal emergency)- x2 the booking cost of traditional house sitting; for traditional house sitting we will discuss a plan that you’re comfortable with for how often I will leave your pet(s), and how long they will be left alone. **Meet and greets strongly suggested/required in some cases if: A) You have a pet with extreme anxiety, behavioral issues, or unknown reactions to being left in the care of a new person. B) You live in an apartment complex—mainly if you’ve been told your complex is difficult to navigate. I want your pet to have all of their first visit spent with me there. If I have a commitment that would prevent me from being able to spend extra time with them, I won’t be able to give them a whole 30 min (or hour if that’s what you are booking) if I’m unable to locate your apartment. C) You have particularly unique preferences for your pet’s care. I love detailed instructions, actually I prefer this. I would love to get a feel for and see what this will look like during the meet and greet though. ***as of 2/20/26 I will have moved from Franklin, TN 37069 to Nashville, TN 37215. Availability to repeat clients (without an additional distance fee) is contingent on driving time to your location. **** if you find any part of the booking is not meeting your standards/expectations, please communicate this to me so I can adjust the issue or potentially request a refund via customer support for that visit. I strive to individualize care to match the needs of every client. Furthermore, I want my clients to always feel heard and supported. *****Boarding and day care information if you have a medium to giant size dog, pets who don’t react well to cats, and/or you prefer a yard and large quantities of exercise during the booking: My family owns a large property and farm about 10 minutes from my apartment. I am able to stay there in their guest house with your pets rather than board them at my apartment. This is honestly preferable for any large dog/dogs who become activated around other dogs, mainly because my complex is heavily populated by dog owners and we would encounter other dogs each time we go outside. I can still board larger and/or reactive dogs, dogs who don’t mix well with cats, and dogs requiring extra exercise. ____________ More about me (if you’re curious): -Outside of pet care I am a licensed social worker (non-practicing at the moment) and a part time esthetician student. My social work career mostly includes providing individual or group mental health therapy, and case management for individuals experiencing homelessness, previously incarcerated, and/or with mental health and substance use disorders. As you can probably imagine, shifting towards Rover and esthetician school has been a major change! -During my free time I love working out—Pilates, barre, & running/walking. I’m relatively athletic so I can provide exercise tailored to each pet’s needs. With pets whose owners would prefer more exercise, I am able to provide more fast paced exercise, such as speed walking or jogging. And you’ll never have to worry if your dog happens to be a larger dog and/or pulls on the leash. Still haven’t met a dog I haven’t been able to walk! -I’m very big on volunteer work since I am not currently practicing social work. I have a very nurturing side, and while I’m so excited to become an esthetician, I would love to still be engaged in service of others. Right now I am developing an outline for a “pay what you can” farm-to-table service using the products of my family’s farm. Also in progress is an incorporation of my skincare, beauty, and wellness services into a larger ministry that serves survivors of trafficking, addiction, and/or DV. -During my free time I also enjoy binging thrillers and crime dramas during my free time. I’ve been getting into true crime podcasts. So yes, I’ll most likely be listening to Dateline while driving to our meet and greet at your house when I’ve never met you before. As if I need to be any more nervous about that part of this job! Happy to do it though. I love this job. But if you do happen to want to meet at a dog park or coffee place, I won’t object! - I’m a Nashville native and the oldest of four kids in my family. I’m a bit of an extroverted introvert. I enjoy my alone time and being home as much as possible. But if you bring me around social situations, I could talk to just about anyone about anything. - I have a baby kitten, older kitten who is almost an adult, and a senior kitty that live with me full time. I have a senior (family) dog that lives with me a few months out of the year when my parents snowbird in Florida. I commute to a night school M-Th 5:30pm-10pm and work another job remotely. Rover is my main obligation outside of school and I prioritize my rover bookings over most things. Alongside client satisfaction, self-care is imperative to me. While I am finishing school over the next few months, I typically will not accept early morning bookings unless there is flexibility with the times. However, I am able to offer late night visits on days off from school due to my routine sleep schedule. Quite a few of my repeat clients work night shifts and I’ve provided care for their pets between 11pm-4am. I try to avoid committing to any visits between 5am-10am so that I can keep a consistent sleep schedule, and be punctual for you! When caring for pets, safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions from the owner, including dietary needs, medications, walking preferences, and any behavioral considerations. I have gained a good amount of experience over the last few years in the area of taking care of senior pets and pre-adoption pets. My pup, Pasco, is currently receiving medications and palliative care, so I have personally experience in this area. Before adopting my kitten, Ocean, I recently fostered three pre-adopted kittens that needed bottle-feeding and gentle help with passing stool. I make sure the home environment is pet-proofed—keeping hazards like wires, cleaning products, and choking risks out of reach. I also monitor pets closely for any signs of distress, illness, or unusual behavior and will notify the owner immediately if anything seems off. Building trust with both the pet and their owner is equally important. I take time to get to know each animal’s temperament, routines, and comfort zones so they feel safe and secure in my presence. Whether in my home or theirs, I maintain a calm, structured environment, offer plenty of positive attention, and create a consistent routine that pets can rely on. Regarding trust and safety, as a sitter I also request that you disclose any video and/or audio surveillance inside your home before officially booking with me. It goes against Rover’s guidelines (and federal law) to not disclose indoor surveillance. In today’s world, 90% of clients I work with have some form of video surveillance. As an owner myself who also hires Rover sitters to care for my pets, I understand completely and have never not booked with a client due to disclosed video surveillance. For in-home services, I’m respectful of the client’s space—leaving things clean and secure, and keeping communication open with daily updates, photos, and check-ins so the owner feels confident their pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. I love dogs of all sizes. We have two black labs and a shepherd mix. We also have a cat and several aquatic creatures. I’m currently working part time from home and have plenty of free time to care for your pets. My schedule is fairly flexible and I look forward to meeting your furry friends! I’m very detail-oriented and happy to follow your instructions for the best care for your pets. I love walking so happy to do neighborhood walks or hit the local hiking trails or dog parks.

“Ute was great proving day care for our new puppy. As he was in a new home and trying to adapt to life without his mom and littermates, Ute went the extra mile to attend to his needs as a young puppy. I highly recommend Ute!”

“Ginger loved Kathy and so did I. Ginger is a rescue dog and this was her first experience away from our home. This was also my first experience with Rover. I was extremely pleased!”

About: I have taken care of countless dogs and foster animals for many years! Have had a lot of family pets and also volunteered with the humane society for many years. I am currently unemployed so I am very available for walks or doggy day care during the day! Whatever works best for you and your dog. I have a large yard with a run and air conditioning inside along with lots of leash walking experience. Plenty of room for a crate as well if needed.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and could not imagine life without them! Pets deserve all of the attention and love even when you’re gone. I understand the stress of having to leave your pup and can assure you they’ll be in great hands! We’ll go on walks, play throughout the day and snuggle at night. I work from home full time. I am here to hang with them and keep them busy while you are gone. I take my own pup on daily walks and Riley loves to have a friend around. I have lots of grass around my apartment and a big dog park for them to play. I also love going on walks with them and being active if that’s what they like!

“Ally was awesome!! Thank you for making our first experience so good!”

Kristy D.

“Melissa was so good with Blue. He played well with Hudson and she sends lots of photos and updates. Her yard is the best we have ever experienced. Both her front and backyard are fully fenced with lots of shade and room to run and play. I will definitely be leaving Blue with Melissa and Hudson again.”

About: PA, pet sitter, and paw-fessional treat-giver! I grew up surrounded by pets (including helping care for my neighbor’s nine cats—yes, nine!) and have since cared for cats and dogs of all kinds, from cuddly kittens to lively multi-pet households. My style? Reliable, loving, and fun—because pets deserve playtime, not just full food bowls. Whether it’s daily check-ins or overnight stays, I treat every furry friend like family—belly rubs, lap naps, and games of fetch included. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and a little spoiled while you’re away. Bonus: I’m also great at sending cute photo updates so you never miss a tail wag or happy purr! 🐶🐱🐾 I’m a full-time travel PA, but when I’m between assignments, I’m available for endless playtime with your pups and plenty of cuddles with your cats! I have a small backyard where dogs can safely play and use the bathroom. Inside, cats enjoy a calm, clean environment with plenty of cozy spots to relax. I supervise all pets closely to ensure they’re safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.

About: Hello! Thank you for visiting my profile. I love animals and have been a pet sitter and dog walker for five years. I specialize in energetic walks, fun doggy-play during the day, and loving supervision until you return home. I work from home and will ensure your pet gets a lot of attention. I offer the following services: *Walks: I can come by while you are at work or away to take your pet for a walk. Walks range from 30-60 minutes. I can walk up to two dogs at a time, and I can accommodate the level of speed your pet needs. I am trying to expand my walking services on Rover, as I have primarily been boarding, but I also have a lot of walking experience. *Drop-in: If you pet isn't a walker, I can come by and play with them and let them out to the bathroom. *Doggy Day Care: This service is perfect if you need pet care for just the day. I can host your pet at my home. *Boarding: NOTE due to high demand for this service, I am not accepting new clients at the moment. I live in West Nashville, in a townhome with a small fenced in yard. If your pet needs more exercise, we can go for a walk around my neighborhood or I have several parks within miles from house. Feel free to bring their favorite toy or bed, and crates are also welcome. I only board one pet at a time. If there are any behavioral issues I should be aware of, I trust the parent will tell me. *Pet Sitting: I can come to your home and sit for your pet. Meet and greets are available upon request. Thank you, and I look forward to meeting your pet! I work from home so I will make sure your pet will get a lot of attention and exercise throughout the day. There is always time for walks. I treat my clients pets like they are my own. Whether I’m watching them for a few days or just taking them for a walk, I will make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention.

“Tara was amazing! Cleo went with her and didn’t look back. She came home happy. Highly recommend.”
