A Lifelong Dog Lover Ready to Care for Your Furry Friend of Any Size! I have always been around dogs of all sizes for as long as I remember but mainly larger breed dogs so size is no issue! ! I live literally right across the street from a good size park in East Nashville and will enjoy playing with your pup there!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Murphy had a great stay with Gary, it was easy to coordinate and he was very communicative! Would definitely use his services again!
He is very kind with our two dogs thank you!
Gary is a great sitter. He sent pictures and updates and Bartley always looked happy.
Gary sent great updates of Margot throughout the week & was flexible when our pickup time changed. Would definitely ask him to watch her again - looked like she had so much fun!
Always so accommodating and flexible, and our dog comes back happy as can be!
Gary is a great guy & took amazing care of my 2 dogs for a week. My pups enjoyed themselves so much they were hesitant to come home. My dog Atticus turned 5 while I was away, and Gary made his day extra special w some very special treats.. which was much appreciated!!

Schedule
I work from home full time and can easily adapt to your pups routine! I typically do 5 potty breaks and atleast a walk a day!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced in back yard and I live in front of a park with a two baseball fields that I use for extreme fetch!
A typical day
I love to make sure every dog gets the physical and mental stimulation they need, so please let me know what they enjoy and bring toys! For High-Energy Pups (regardless of size): We'll go on longer walks followed by playing in my backyard. I really enjoy fetch with pups but please let me know if your pup struggles with recall. I will stick to my enclosed yard rather than the baseball fields. For Smaller/Mellow Dogs: We'll enjoy leisurely park strolls for scent work and exploration, gentle play, and dedicated cuddle/snuggle time indoors, providing the gentle attention they need. For All Dogs: I incorporate positive reinforcement and basic command practice into our playtime to keep their minds engaged.
