Pet care experience

Your Best Friend's New Best Friend

My field trial champion and service animal trained Golden Retriever Miles Davis is my resume. I love animals. I am strong enough to handle large dogs, and gentle enough for smaller breeds; though I specialize in golden retrievers and all doodles. I make sure all my active dogs get 3-6 miles of structured walks every day with accompanying video footage, a quality advantage I offer; critical moves to keep your pups: healthy, happy, and learning you won’t get anywhere else. I've been pet sitting and training dogs for decades and I'm currently looking to assist a few dog families near me. Ask me about puppy training sessions as well!

Jonathan was great and Winnie seemed very happy. We really appreciated him offering a solution for the last night we were away, during which time he wasn’t available. It was seamless and easy!

Rayland had another great stay with Jonathan and Miles Davis! Plenty of play and exercise for our energetic dood. We appreciate the fun walks, love and fenced-in play. Rayland gets well cared for here.

Peaches had such a good stay. Jonathan was so patient with her, and even threw in some training which was greatly appreciated!!! 10/10 would book again.

This was Maggie and luna’s first stay with Jonathan and it was great! Communication was simple, meet n greet went well, the dogs had a great time. They got plenty of exercise and I know they had fun. Relieved to find such great care on Rover and will definitely use again.

My rates are dependent on how much work is required. Some dogs require a lot, some do not. My rates on site currently reflect the latter but are subject to change after I meet your dog. I am probably not going to be your cheapest option unless you have the chillest dog in Nashville but I likely will be able to provide the most value for your dollar. Let’s set up a meet and greet to find out!
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.
