The Pooch Pad- FurrBabies Welcomed

Hi! I’m Karee (pronounced kuh-REE), and I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 11 years old. Over the last few years on Rover, I’ve had the opportunity to care for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and it’s become one of the most rewarding parts of my life. I work full-time in employee benefits here in Nashville, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, safe, and at home while you’re away. I’m an active person who enjoys hiking, working out, and spending time outdoors. If your dog enjoys adventures and you’re comfortable with it, I’m always happy to bring them along on a hike or long walk when appropriate. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and photos throughout your pet’s stay. I know how much peace of mind matters when you’re away from your furry family member. My home has a secure, gated patio for fresh air and potty breaks, and I provide at least two walks each day. If I ever need to step out for an extended period, dogs are safely crated (if crate trained or requested by the owner), and I do everything I can to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Before each stay, I’d love to learn about your dog’s routine, personality, medications, favorite toys, and anything else that helps them feel at home. Every dog is different, and I believe great care starts with understanding what makes each one unique. Whether your pup is energetic and loves to play or prefers a quiet place to relax, I’d love the opportunity to care for them. I look forward to meeting you both!

Karee did a great job with my pittie mix Ranger. He’s a rescue and still has some trauma issues. I honestly thought I might have a hard time getting Ranger to want to come home, Karee has such a nice set up for the dogs he cares for. While I missed my boy, it was such a relief knowing he was in capable and caring hands. I will definitely bring Ranger back to Karee when we’re in Nashville again.

Schedule

I conduct most of my meetings from home so I can provide the flexibility and attention that your pet yearns for. I enjoy going for walks throughout the day to keep me energized, so your pet will get plenty of exercise. I ensure that each dog under my care gets walked a minimum of 2x each day during their stay.

Safety, trust & environment

Needless to say, I treat my client's pets as if they were my own. Their happiness and safety will be one of my top priorities. If I need to be away for an extended period of time, I do prefer to keep my guests crated and play soothing music throughout the house to help combat separation anxiety.

A typical day

I am an avid hiker and so if I have a hiking day trip planned then I am happy to bring along a furry companion if the trail allows it.
