Flexible & compassionate dog lover
Pet care experience
Dogs can make any day brighter. Their companionship is invaluable. Whenever a dog crosses my path, they stir up love and compassion in my soul. That’s why, in addition to owning dogs for more than 20 years, I have also opened up my home to fostering stray dogs--ensuring that they are in robust health, then re-homing them with great families. Playing with dogs brings me joy! I love that by playing, exercising, and cuddling together, I can make dogs’ lives better, too. Separation is a challenge for pets and their humans alike. My goal is to make sure that your dog is happy as can be, and that you have a wonderful trip knowing your loved one is in great hands. I’ll keep you informed and involved from our first contact through the end of your stay: meet-and-greets, follow-ups, photos, updates, and so on. The experience will be completely personalized for you and your dog. My schedule is flexible, so I’ll have lots of time to devote to your pup. One of the advantages of my approach is that we’ll form a fast friendship, bonding through shared activities, games, exercise, and snuggles. They’ll trust me because my actions show that I am there to keep them safe, provide love and comfort to them, and give attention and care so they know they’re loved at all times. I’m quite active; I’m actually a health coach, too! I love exercise, and will walk or run with your pup to ensure that their energy is put to good use. I love to explore new neighborhoods--I’m still new to Nashville, and there’s so much to discover. Depending on your preferences, we can hike new trails, go to the dog park, and take daily jogs. I’ll check in about exercise needs and restrictions to make sure that your dog gets exactly what she needs! I’ve owned large breeds such as Bernese Mountain Dogs and Great Danes. Currently, I have my 9-year-old little man, Gilbert, who is a Min Pin. I love working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’ve also owned cats and horses and spent time on farms, so please contact me if you have other pets who need looking after. I’m comfortable with most furry animals out there!
Reviews
Sumer was AWESOME with my pup!!! He warmed up to her almost immediately, which is not common for him. She was super easy to communicate with, and she was really accommodating when I needed help last minute. I would recommend her to everyone!
My German shepherd pup loves Sumer! She takes time to visit with my baby while I'm at work! So grateful for her :)
Love Sumer! She is so good with my rott. We would be lost without her help!
Sumer is the best! My dogs received the highest level of love and care. Thank you Sumer!

Information Sumer A. would like to know about your pet
We’ll do a meet-and-greet in the home or neighborhood where I’ll be caring for the dog. I’ll want to know any personality quirks the dog may have so that I’m prepared to give the best care possible. I don’t have any breed restrictions. Health concerns, food allergies, and medication needs will be discussed. Exercise needs, including your usual schedule and any potential limitations. Can I take the dog running, or are walks better? Let me know where your dog most likes to go--including how she does at the dog park--as well as favorites like games, toys, and treats.
A typical day
I work for myself, and my flexible schedule means more fun for everyone! I love to go for walks, go to dog parks, snuggle, and play games indoors and out. I also like to jog, so if the dog likes to run with me, that would be great. We’ll plan our day around your daily routine to help your dog feel completely at home with us.
