Doggy Day Care in Oaklawn

“We had Lisa watch our young puppy and he left with all wags and smiles! This was our first time leaving him with someone else. Lisa was amazing in making sure I felt comfortable and allowed me to visit her prior to booking. Immediately I felt at ease - she has a sweet and caring spirit and her children are great, too! Already booked our next daycare day. :)”

“EMILY IS INCREDIBLE!!! If we could give her 1 million stars, we would. Her place is nice, her dogs are precious, and her heart is huge. Ana was super happy and comfortable and just fit into the pack beautifully. They all treated Ana and us like family. What a blessing!!! Thank you Emily and Austin and Jo and Fancy and Izzy.”

“Watson loves to visit Sandra and gets super excited as soon as we turn into the driveway. He felt right at home immediately and became part of their family. ❤️”

“Christine was amazing. I had to go on a work trip and couldn't leave our sweet Maggie alone at home while my husband was at work due to separation anxiety. Christine did doggie daycare for us and Maggie adored her. She was flexible, responsive, sent us a ton of pictures, and spoiled our girl. Hopefully we can use her every time moving forward :)”

“We really love Heather! Our regular daycare was booked solid and I'd never looked at Rover before for daycare purposes. But we found a new daycare that Milly loves! We also love getting pictures and videos throughout the day! So fun!”

About: Dogs have been a part of our hearts and lives for as long as we can remember. My husband began breeding, training, and raising Labrador Retrievers during college, and when he moved here, his beloved Labs came with him. They were cherished members of our family until they passed at the incredible ages of 15 and 17. A year into our relationship, he gave me a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel for Valentine’s Day—and that’s when my love affair with Cavaliers truly began. That special gift opened the door to a lifelong passion for this sweet and gentle breed. We are proud foster parents with the Tennessee chapter of Cavalier Rescue USA, where we welcome dogs from all backgrounds into our home. We care for them, nurture them, and help them transition into the loving “furever” homes they deserve. In addition to fostering, we’ve volunteered with the Nashville Humane Association, participating in their “Doggie Day Out” program, which gives shelter dogs a much-needed break from the stress of kennel life. Taking them out for adventures and social time not only lifts their spirits but helps them connect with potential adopters. We’ve always loved dogs of all breeds, they hold a special place in our hearts, each with their own unique personalities. Over the years, we’ve also helped care for the pets of friends and family while they’re away—whether it’s a weekend trip or a longer vacation. With all this experience and love in our hearts, we thought: why not open our home to others who need trusted, loving care for their dogs? Our dogs are our kids. We cherish every moment with them, and we promise to treat your furbabies with the same love and attention as if they were our own. When your pup is with us, you can rest easy knowing they’re safe, happy, and surrounded by people who truly care. My husband works from home full time, so there’s always someone here to provide attention, care, and company throughout the day. I work weekdays from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, and together, we make sure every pup is loved, played with, and well cared for. We love relaxing outside while the pups play in our fully fenced, spacious backyard—there’s plenty of room to run, sniff, and explore! We have two friendly dogs of our own to keep your pup company, and if your dog needs a break or their own space, we’re happy to crate them upon request. You can take comfort in knowing your furbabies will be safe with us and get lots of snuggle time!

“Larissa watched our puppy Ruby last minute and did a great job. I would definitely recommend to anyone that needs their dogs watched.”

“Morgan is incredible - amazing, kind, patient, trusting and reliable! We just got a new puppy who is not yet trained and she’s so wonderful with him. My husband and I highly recommend and truly appreciate her! Thank you :)”

Jessica S.

“Very welcoming, quick to respond. Treated my puppy like one of her own. Super sweet, and really enjoyed the feedback and videos of my pup playing with others.”

Selena B.

“I love how Jamie keeps me updated on how my baby is doing and what she’s doing. She answers her messages quickly which is a plus for me. My dog felt very comfortable with her she knows when she’s going to her house she gets excited in the car on the way there. I am very appreciative of Jamie keeping my baby. Jamie is someone that you can really trust to watch your fur baby. Jamie is very sweet and calm with my baby, I will always trust her to watch my baby and I don’t trust a lot of people watching her at all.”

About: I have owned and cared for animals most of my adult life! Mostly dogs and cats, but a few rabbits, fish, and other oddities here and there (no snakes though!). Pets are my passion! I never had children of my own, so fur babies ARE my kids! Recently, I helped my baby girl, Dollie, deliver her first litter of Shih-tzu puppies. They are PRECIOUS and raising them was one of the biggest joys of my life so far! Prior to getting Dollie and Porter (yes, they are named after Dolly Parton and Porter Waggoner), I rescued a Shih-tzu named Nash and had him for 11 awesome years. He had a lot of medical issues, including surviving cancer twice, so I am also well-versed in caring for senior dogs and giving them medication, feeding special foods, etc. Additionally, my friends and family don't hesitate to call on me when they need help caring for their four-legged friends. I have two precious Shih-tzus as noted in my "Pet care experience" and am able to devote extra time to them because I currently work from home. That also means I have great flexibility to help care for your fur babies! I have a fully fenced-in yard where your pup(s) can run and play. My two Shih-tzus are also friendly and love to play and keep their four-legged friends company. I can also crate your pup if you or it prefer.

“They are the best in every way possible. I never worry about my dog with them. My dog is always happy to be at their house and always good and tired when she gets home.”

“Vanessa took great care of my golden! I appreciate that she also allowed us to “meet and greet” all her fur babies beforehand. Will be using her again for sure!”

Hannah R.

“Emily is fantastic! She communicated before and during my dog's stay with her. She sent pictures throughout the day as well. We will definitely book with her again!!”

About: Hi, I’m Brandy, thanks for visiting my profile. I am an experience Rover pet sitter. I’ve been doing this for years now and love it. I am also very experienced with animals.

I’ve rescued strays, cared for seniors, and raised energetic puppies. 🌸What Makes Me Different I specialize in both puppy training basics and senior care, including meds and mobility support. I’m experienced with anxious pets and multi-pet homes, and I pay close attention to each pet’s unique personality and needs. 🌸Why You’ll Love Booking With Me Your pet will be treated like family.

“I have been taking my two terriers,Ozzie and Cricket, to Alicia for over two years. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is authentically invested in the care of my animals. I have one dog who has low level anxiety and requires a lot of attention and reassurance. Alicia is great with him. My younger dog can be extremely high energy and requires a certain amount of exercise during the day in order to be calm at night. Alicia’s “pack“ gives them acceptance and that they need to do well around other dogs and be socialized well. I have shopped a lot of different sitters and services. I find that many times you get what you pay for. There are people who are less expensive than she, but provide far less service if any at all. Alicia understands a dog‘s nature, she is versed in k9 training and does not crate the dogs EVER (unless you request it). Her home is centered around your dogs. I find that she provides the comfort and individual care my animals need. Her large backyard is secured and safe for them to play and sniff and be dogs! She supervises them and also provides a lot of individualized attention. She will customize her services to what you need for your dog – which is exactly what I was looking for. Other sitters sometimes have many, many dogs under their care in any given day, kennel them or don’t supervise well. We learned this hard with our last dog. Alicia limits the number of dogs that she has so that her environment is – #1- not dangerous or scary for your animal and #2 are personalized for each dogs requirements. My dogs are my babies and they mean a lot to me. I was searching for somebody who Could provide them safety and comfortable care while I travel for business, go on vacation or sometimes just for doggy daycare. They love going to her house and cannot wait to get rid of me once we get there! That tells me everything because the last Sitter I used that was not the case. 100% recommend”

About: I've been taking care of our dogs and cats for over 50 years. We've had as many as 5 dogs and 3 cats at one time, all Rescue-all sizes and temperaments and living in our house. I walk the dogs most mornings and play with them in our fenced in backyard. We both volunteered at a Cat Rescue in Nashville for over a year. Mostly handling 30-40 kittens with feeding, cleaning & watering, but also some adult cats and general cleaning of the facility. We've Adopted many "Rescue" dogs/cats over the years and have Fostered several dogs. In addition we've donated our time/money to many of these organizations. Nashville Pittie, Clk/Mont County Humane Society, Middle Tennessee German Shepherd Rescue, True Rescue in Nashville, etc. I love dogs and cats and hope to spend my free time with them! I'm retired, so I am available except for occasional appointments or activities. But, I can work around my schedule. My wife is also retired, and she will be help out when I'm not available. I am the Primary. Between each of us we can cover 24/7 needs. We've got a fenced in backyard for the dogs to Potty and Play in. I clean up after our dogs multiple times/day. We've also got an upstairs apartment with a separate entrance for Boarding. We've kept our Granddogs multiple times over the years and they needed to be separate from ours. I am able to spend time upstairs in the apartment and spend the night with them. If they get along with other dogs and want playmates we are happy to have them join our crew for either playtime or staying full time with us.

About: Because I live on a farm I can care for cats, dogs, plus farm animals and more! Love puppies and caring for senior dogs and cats! I’m retired and can work any day of the week and can stay overnight if timing works out. I can also bring my dog or cat for a companion play date! I have dogs and cats that live inside our house and barn cats outside. To stay at my house I would use the stalls in my barn if inside did not work for your pet
