“Had a AWESOME experience with Alyssa and her family watching my 2 year old pup. I was anxious to leave her with someone since I had never before. Alyssa made me feel comfortable and secure during the process. She sent me little reports and photos daily of my pup and kept me in the loop with everything. My pup definitely misses her sweet new friend “Bella” and had a great time running around all day! Will 10000% be using Alyssa and her family in the future!”
“Charity gave Nash a wonderful week! He had a ton of outside time, played with other dogs, and was able to explore the barn and surrounding spaces every day. I received lots of pictures and updates so we never had to worry about what Nash was doing. We will definitely use Charity again!”
“Ariel was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog, Patches! From the very first time we met her, she made us feel comfortable and confident that Patches would be in great hands. She took the time to ask questions about his needs and routine, and she was happy to answer all of ours as well. When we dropped Patches off, he was immediately comfortable and seemed right at home. Throughout his stay, Ariel kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to see how much fun he was having. It was clear that Ariel genuinely cared for Patches and treated him like one of her own. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for a five-star dog sitter on Rover, Ariel is the one! We highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with Patches again.”
“Erin and Joseph are amazing!! We don't normally board our GSD but had to do so 2x in the same month as the locations we were headed were not pet friendly. Our girl loved them, from the meet and greet to both stays, she was well loved and cared for. Erin and Joseph sent daily pictures of her playing with the other dogs and having a blast. When we picked her up this last time, she didn't want to leave. We totally recommend these guys and will certainly be using them again!!!”
“My Izzee had such a great time with Tyler and his beautiful family. I could tell right away that they genuinely love dogs. I frequently visit Tn, would definitely rebook and refer Tyler, he was awesome! Thanks again !”
“Misty is my go-to dog sitter! i’ve booked with her multiple times and she’s always great. She has a nice house with a spacious backyard and a flexible schedule for pick up and drop off. My dog loves her and her dogs and I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Dixie had a great stay. Cyndie and her family were so warm and welcoming and it is very clear how much they care for animals. They were wonderful and we will certainly use them again!”
About: I am an RN, used to looking after folks since 1987, I have fostered for several dog rescues over the years also. My care and concern for dogs welfare is huge! I’m part time working so have plenty time to spend with the dogs. I have a large country homestead setting, with safe fenced in areas for play and exercise! My two dogs are used to playing with other dog friends - all under supervision, with crates for rest time, and separate areas for mealtimes in case of issues.
“Hayley and her family were the perfect hosts for our pets. What a personable experience and the dogs seemed to have enjoyed their overnight stay with them and their dog pools ;-) We will be sure to make this their home away from home when we are visiting Nashville in the future.”
“Ms Sandy was so great with our senior dog, Vixen! I never worried about her and Sandy sent several pictures of her happy! Ms Sandy also was great with some of the senior dog issues Vixen sometimes has. Overall I felt extremely at ease with Vixen staying there and would definitely have her watch our dog again!”
“Scott helped us out over the Christmas holiday. He sent photos everyday of our dog to let us know she was having a fun time in his fenced in yard. Will use his services again. Thanks!”
“Shiloh was so good to us and our pup. She went above and beyond with caring for him and making him feel at home while we were away. He had an incident with a groomer before his stay and she was SO helpful with administering his medicine. Highly recommend!!”
“We have nothing but great things to say about Kaitlyn! She was very easy to communicate with and took many adorable pictures of our pups during their stay. We got daily updates on their progress which was so comforting our first time away from them for more than a day or two. Definitely recommend!!”
“I am so glad I could find someone who I can rely on at any time and trust to watch Yukon when I need to go out of town. I could tell right away Yukon enjoyed staying there. Also enjoyed the random updates and photos throughout his stay. Thanks again and look forward to scheduling a day care and/or dog boarding again.”
“Luffy had a wonderful vacation! They were so accommodating to our needs even though it was a super last minute booking! John communicated really well, I will definitely be boarding luffy here from now on, so blessed to have John care for my dog.”

“Spent lots of time with my kitties was just what the doctor ordered! They are so needy and lovey and Rob gave them the attention they desired. They are also usually weary of men but not Rob, they were completely comfortable hanging out together.”
“Thanks Ariel! We'd be happy to use you again as our cat sitter as long as you're still available! Ariel took lots of videos and photos of our cats, even though they mostly hid from her - she was still able to find them. She also was able to operate and clean out our Litter Robot and have them tuna wet food treats. We were on a very long vacation and this brought a ton of peace of mind to us.”

“Nicole was fabulous with our three senior kitizens. Two of them need medications (one liquid, one pill) and she did great with both. She even got my timid one in her good graces right away. She was great at communication, and I felt reassured that if there was an issue, she would reach out. Will absolutely be using her again.”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life. In fact, I’ve dedicated my career to it! With my progressing degree in wildlife conservation and animal behavior I have devoted my time to promoting the well-being of animals of all shapes and sizes. I’ve been the first on call for family and friends when it comes to taking care of their pets needs for my entire life. I’m looking forward to building that trust with you! I’m a zookeeper by trade! In my spare time i’m hoping to provide the same exemplary care and companion ship in your very own home as I do in the zoo. Being a full-time animal keeper, I work long daytime hours on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, & Sundays. However, my Wednesdays and Thursday are completely open! That being said, i’m more than willing to have a conversation about an evening visit if your furry, feathered, or scales friends need a check-in. Just send a message in advance! My fiancé and I live in Lebanon, TN with our very spoiled tabby cat Flounder. Flounder mostly spends his days relaxing in the comfort of his home, eating his carefully curated meals. As a retired adventure cat travelling the country, it is well deserved! I love to be outside and adventure myself so I am more than happy to serve as an adventure buddy for your pet as well! I know many dog friendly parks & trails in the area that can accommodates us outdoor lovers for hours. If you have an exotic pet, I’m happy to spend the time incorporating handling and enrichment specially designed for the species. In my personal and professional career, i’ve worked with hundred of species from snakes, birds, to tigers! Though, I hope you don’t have one of those in your home… ;)
“This was my first time using Rover.com and I could not have been more pleased with the service or our sitter, Theresa. Charlie is currently undergoing medical treatment for a condition which required someone with experience. Theresa's knowledge was spot-on and I left our dog confident he was in excellent hands. It's obvious Theresa was a huge hit with Charlie because upon our return, he was slightly disappointed it was not his new friend walking through the door!”

I also have two friendly dogs who love playing with other dogs. If I am in your home I’ll respect whatever rules and schedule you like to keep for your pets.
“Ashlynn did an amazing job taking care of our pets while we were gone. I was so nervous about leaving them and having someone stop by because we have never done it this way before, but she showed up on time for every drop in and she made our animals feel loved while we were gone. She communicated with us very effectively as well. We left for 4 days and when we returned there were no messes to clean up and our pets were so happy to see us, but acted like they were shown plenty of love while we were gone. She made sure to show each of them affection and attention on every visit. And, that says a lot considering we have 3 cats and a dog she was tending to. We will definitely rebook with her in the future and I highly recommend her for anyone wanting to make sure their fur babies have the best care!”

“This request was last minute & we really appreciated her taking Dolly for the day. Dolly always seems to be happy to be there. We were delayed with returning & once again we were met with understanding. We really a appreciate having a great place to leave our sweet "baby"!”
“Carri is just amazing! She was very understanding of my anxious dog with separation anxiety and made dropping him off a breeze. Would def recommend and will rebook again in the future. She even sent my Hershey home with a mini dog care bag. She goes above and beyond and you can really tell that she cares for the dogs.”

About: I have had animals in my home since I was born. I have had small to large dogs, and believe that each requires love, nurture and one to one time to live the best life. I am adamant about taking my dogs out for exercise regardless of the weather, and thoroughly enjoy cuddle time! Any special needs your pet has, I can accommodate, whether medical or for comfort. I am flexible in my care routine, and open to feedback. I work from home and have a very flexible job that allows me to play with and care for my animals at ease.

About: 🐐 The Pet & Farm Nanny: Constant Care & Custom Visits 🐾 Hi y’all! I’m Ariel. I offer a unique "Nanny" experience for your pets, whether they are staying with me or in the comfort of their own home. I recently moved to Lebanon and love providing the reliable, heart-centered care that every animal deserves—from senior dogs needing meds to hobby farms needing a helping hand. How I can help: • At My Home (The "Workday" Companion): Since I work from home (10 AM – 7 PM), your pet will never be alone! I offer a cozy, attentive environment in my apartment for smaller dogs or cats who love constant human company. • At Your Home (Mornings & Weekends): I am available for early morning walks, drop-in feedings, and farm chores (milking goats, feeding horses, collecting eggs). I also offer Overnight House Sitting on weekends to keep your pets in their familiar routine! • Specialized Care: I am fully comfortable with senior pet care and administering oral medications. My Commitment to You: I stay within a 15-20 mile radius of Lebanon to ensure I’m always close by. You can expect high-quality communication, plenty of photo updates, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing a "Nanny" is looking after your family. Note: Due to my apartment setting, I am unable to offer puppy training/boarding, but I’m a pro at cuddles and routine! As a project coordinator working from home (10 AM – 7 PM), I’m the ultimate full-time companion! Your pet will have my company all day long while I’m at my desk. For house calls, walks, and farm chores, I’m an early bird and a weekend warrior! I’m available for drop-ins and farm visits before 9:30 AM or after 7:30 PM on weekdays, with completely open availability on Saturdays and Sundays for longer visits or weekend house-sitting. Safety is my top priority! When pets stay with me in my apartment, they enjoy a calm, pet-proofed environment with plenty of cozy spots to nap near my workspace. I’m a pro at maintaining strict routines, whether that’s a specific feeding schedule or administering essential medications for senior pets. I am an avid walker, so if your pup is with me, we will get plenty of exercise. When I’m at your home or farm, I’m hyper-vigilant about double-checking gate latches, ensuring fresh water troughs are full, and keeping a 'Nanny’s eye' on everything to make sure your home is as secure as your pets are happy!

About: I’ve always loved animals, (especially cats, I’m a huge cat person), so I’ve had at least one or two ever since I was little, and throughout the years I’ve learned how to take care of them. I’ve also owned a few dogs here and there, including a chihuahua. (I have more experience with small dogs.) As of now, I am completely free all Monday through Sunday, so feel free to book me anytime. I do go to church on Sundays around 10:30 to 1 so anything after that is fine. I can take care of animals indoors. I have an animal gate to help prevent them from going upstairs and having access to the stairs.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for quite some time now anything from a dog to farm animals. I take great care and quality in what I do to ensure everyone’s pets have the best care!

About: I come from a farming background, and have cared for dogs and cats in a variety of environments. I worked as a livestock manager for farming operations a total of 5+ years, besides having owned and raised many of my own pets since I was a kid. I have often volunteered to pet sit for friends and relatives, including both dogs and cats. I can handle all basic daily needs, feeding, walking, monitoring, and even administer medications if required. I am on a seasonal break for the holidays, and looking to supplement my income. I can visit daily within a reasonable distance, or stay overnights when required. Aside from some dates I will block out around Christmas, I have open availability! I will come to you for pet care. Cats will be fed according to their schedule, litter cleaned daily. Dogs will be walked at or near feeding times, and let out for potty breaks as needed throughout the day. Lots of love given at all times! If there are other medical needs I will need details of their care when setting up an appointment.
About: When I’m dog sitting your best friends, they will receive daily Trips to the park, Constant Attention, Affection, Love, as well as a safe environment to be in. Dogs are my passion and a ginormous part of my life. I will go above and beyond for your four-legged friend 💪🏽 after all…. It’s what they deserve for their undying loyalty. I’m currently a student who studies virtually from home. I have open availability throughout the entire week. Being a student allows me to have a lot of free time. Your dog will be exercised, loved, and be safe at all times with me. I look forward to taking care of your best friend I have a dog myself who’s an absolute sweetheart. His daily schedule is eating supplements, vitamins, and his food once in the morning and once at night. He takes 1-2 hour daily trips to the Dog Park, and well as receiving constant affection and love. Your dog will receive the exact same kind of treatment as my own.
About: I've had 4 dogs in total. I got 3 right now, I love when it comes to taking care of them like brushing or giving them their supplements. All my dogs have different personalities, I would love to meet yours. I work almost full time, but I would love to spend time with pets on my free time. I am available 5 days a week maybe some weekends too. I have a fenced yard and 3 dogs who love meeting other dogs. All my dogs are fixed so no worry and they get fed 2 big meals. Inside the house it is small but cozy enough for the dog.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other animals for over 18 years, and it’s truly something I love doing. Throughout that time, I’ve had the opportunity to care for puppies, senior dogs, and every age and personality in between. From daily walks and feeding schedules to bathing, playtime, and overnight care, I’ve worked with dogs in a variety of settings and understand that each one has unique needs. I’m also a dog parent myself. My 8-year-old rescue pup has taught me so much about patience, trust, and helping a dog feel safe and loved. Supporting her as she healed from past trauma has deepened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced my belief that every pet deserves compassionate and individualized care. Whether your pet needs a walk, companionship while you’re away, or someone to keep up with their daily routine, I will care for them with the same love that I give my own. I currently work full-time remotely in the Lebanon area, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and be available throughout the day for pet care needs. Whether your pet needs drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or overnight care, I’m often able to accommodate a variety of schedules. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets while you’re away, and I strive to provide consistent, attentive care while keeping their routine as normal as possible. Feel free to reach out with your specific needs, and I’ll do my best to find a schedule that works for both of us. I strive to provide a safe, warm, and trustworthy environment where pets can feel at home. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to leave your furry family member with someone who will care for them as their own. My 8-year-old rescue pup helps make our home a welcoming place for visiting dogs. Whether they want to play, explore, lounge on the couch, or simply enjoy the company of another dog, she’s great at meeting them where they are. Together, we create an environment where dogs can feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

About: I am an absolute dog lover! I recently lost my pit bull Ruby from old age a couple of months ago so I’ve started going over to my sister’s apartment to let her black lab Charlie out to walk everyday! And, it’s helping me not miss my baby as much! I am so loving towards dogs and treat them with the utmost care:) I have had rocky who was a chow mixed with golden retriever and he passed away at 20 from old age. He was my best friend I got when I was 2. Then when my grandpa passed away I got Ruby who was a pit bull and she was my best friend who passed away from old age and a tumor at 18. I loved on them everyday, walked them daily, played with them daily, and the occasional pup cups were necessary. Every dog that comes in my path absolutely loves me and I love them too. They really are angels for us to have on this earth. I am trying I find a way to pay off student debt flexibly with my schedule of music ministering at prisons, high schools, addiction facilities, and leading worship at youth services. I am very intuitive of pets when they are around me so Im able to make sure they are happy and safe. I love giving them love on top of love. I also am very careful with older dogs or dogs with disability and treat them with the upmost patience and gentleness they deserve.

Such as cleaning pens, feedings, cleaning tanks, ear canal cleanings, nail trimming, bathing, and deshedding! The personal pets you see listed on my profile are 100% accurate as well, most people find it shocking but I’ve always been raised around an entire pack of animals and they are all in the best health with the most love we could possibly surround them with! I am completely available to watch your animals! I am hoping to make this a full time job, so please book me for your long trips, and daily walks! I can ensure that I will leave your house cleaner than when I arrived. My parents run 5 AirBnB cabins, and I am the housekeeper for the guests to ensure sanitary sheets, towels, and plates/dishes are provided. As well as a well kept, and clean living environment while they enjoy our stay with us! I was previously a school custodian for South Warren Middle School in Bowling Green, KY, so cleaning was a daily job for me and I thoroughly enjoy it. Now I hope to love on animals and make sure that THEY stay in a sanitary and clean environment.
About: My life’s passion is animals. I started my first career as a vet tech and gained so much knowledge and training to care for not only my personal animals but those of others. Through that job I started to focus on rescue and training. I currently am a dog mom to 3 rescue dogs and a foster who is most likely going to be a foster fail. There is no breed of dog that I do not love! I also have 3 rescue horses. I am experienced in feeding/medicating/animal behavior/training/walking/bathing/nail trimming and cuddles for all sorts of animals from fish,birds,guniea pigs,cats, dogs and horses. I know the importance of making sure your pets life is as stress free as possible when looking for pet care. I would love to be able to help. I’m available for morning and late-evening drop-ins during the week, and my schedule is more flexible on weekends if you need a midday visit. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to help make your pet’s day a little brighter whenever you need an extra hand! I don’t offer services in my personal home, but I’m dedicated to keeping the safe, familiar environment you’ve created for your pet exactly the way they love it. I follow your routines, respect your space, and make sure your pet feels comfortable, secure, and well-cared-for while you’re away.

About: Hi there. My name is Robyn and I am an animal loving, responsible sitter who would love to help you out with your pets! I have been a dog owner for 18 years as well as a dog foster Mom and a cat owner in the past. I even had a chicken for a couple of years whom I loved dearly and was the neighborhood mascot.:) I know what it is like to have to find loving, responsible caregivers for your pets, as I have used this service for years for my pups. I can come to your house for drop-in visits, walks or overnight stays. I’m happy to help you out with your fur babies wherever I can! Please ask me any questions you might have. I am currently working a job where I make my own schedule, so that makes it very easy to fit pet care into my schedule. I have a 4 yr old boxer and she usually comes along with me for in home stays. She gets along well with all other animals and has made lots of furry friends along the way. I’ve been very lucky to have some wonderful repeat customers and I love seeing the dogs reunite (with the ones who have stayed with myself and my dogs) as they are always fast friends again. I look forward to meeting all the new dogs…and other animals!
About: Hi! I’m Nicole, I’ve had pets all my life and am a huge animal lover! I grew up with dogs and cats and now have two cats and two doggos of my own! My cats are very special as they are completely blind and I will argue that they are the cutest things ever! I am able to give inhalers, medications, and of course am very patient! Also, yes, I live in Lebanon, but I am often in the Nashville area often! Please message if you have any questions, I look fur-ward to working with you! My schedule varies, it’s best to discuss specific dates/times individually. I usually work in downtown Nashville and try to avoid traffic on my journey back to Lebanon! I am willing to work with you for times that best suit your pet! I look forward to caring for your beloved pet! I understand things happen! Let me know after booking if you need to cancel or modify! 😊 I do not have a fee for canceling! Since my cats are both blind I have to be very careful about not moving furniture or placing objects in their way that they could walk into! I am very patient with them when they are learning new places and let them explore at their pace! I will let your pets take the time they need to warm up to me and be very careful with them!
About: I have been surrounded by pets - dogs, cats, horses, cows, birds, reptiles, and everything in between - my entire life! I joined 4H when I was 6 years old as a “clover bud” and have spent the past 10 years learning to care for and train horses, dogs, and goats. Outside of my own furry family, I have assisted my mother with her horse training and pet sitting business, and also started caring for my own homes & farms as soon as I could drive! I work part-time, I am available all day Mondays through Wednesdays, and until 3pm Thursdays to Sundays. My schedule is pretty flexible, and can be available after work if needed. For the safety of your pets and our own dogs and other small pets, we do not currently offer any at home services. Hoping to in the future!
About: With growing up around animals my whole life, pet sitting is nothing new to me. I have been provided the opportunity to pet sit for families, friends, and neighbors my whole life. I provide my own transportation, that allows me the opportunity to feed, walk, and play with your dogs. 😊 I’m a full time pet sitter, so I devote my time working and playing with your fur babies.

I have a fenced in yard, that provides your fur babies the option to run around and play. We have around 2 acres of land, so plenty of room for them to play and potty. If I am at your house, I will keep your pets safe by having them on a leash, and watching them outside. I can crate your pets at nighttime, so it eliminates them getting out and escaping.

“Had a AWESOME experience with Alyssa and her family watching my 2 year old pup. I was anxious to leave her with someone since I had never before. Alyssa made me feel comfortable and secure during the process. She sent me little reports and photos daily of my pup and kept me in the loop with everything. My pup definitely misses her sweet new friend “Bella” and had a great time running around all day! Will 10000% be using Alyssa and her family in the future!”
“Charity gave Nash a wonderful week! He had a ton of outside time, played with other dogs, and was able to explore the barn and surrounding spaces every day. I received lots of pictures and updates so we never had to worry about what Nash was doing. We will definitely use Charity again!”
“Ariel was a fantastic dog sitter for our dog, Patches! From the very first time we met her, she made us feel comfortable and confident that Patches would be in great hands. She took the time to ask questions about his needs and routine, and she was happy to answer all of ours as well. When we dropped Patches off, he was immediately comfortable and seemed right at home. Throughout his stay, Ariel kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to see how much fun he was having. It was clear that Ariel genuinely cared for Patches and treated him like one of her own. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for a five-star dog sitter on Rover, Ariel is the one! We highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with Patches again.”
“Erin and Joseph are amazing!! We don't normally board our GSD but had to do so 2x in the same month as the locations we were headed were not pet friendly. Our girl loved them, from the meet and greet to both stays, she was well loved and cared for. Erin and Joseph sent daily pictures of her playing with the other dogs and having a blast. When we picked her up this last time, she didn't want to leave. We totally recommend these guys and will certainly be using them again!!!”
“My Izzee had such a great time with Tyler and his beautiful family. I could tell right away that they genuinely love dogs. I frequently visit Tn, would definitely rebook and refer Tyler, he was awesome! Thanks again !”
“Dixie had a great stay. Cyndie and her family were so warm and welcoming and it is very clear how much they care for animals. They were wonderful and we will certainly use them again!”
“Hayley and her family were the perfect hosts for our pets. What a personable experience and the dogs seemed to have enjoyed their overnight stay with them and their dog pools ;-) We will be sure to make this their home away from home when we are visiting Nashville in the future.”
“Shiloh was so good to us and our pup. She went above and beyond with caring for him and making him feel at home while we were away. He had an incident with a groomer before his stay and she was SO helpful with administering his medicine. Highly recommend!!”
“We have nothing but great things to say about Kaitlyn! She was very easy to communicate with and took many adorable pictures of our pups during their stay. We got daily updates on their progress which was so comforting our first time away from them for more than a day or two. Definitely recommend!!”
“I am so glad I could find someone who I can rely on at any time and trust to watch Yukon when I need to go out of town. I could tell right away Yukon enjoyed staying there. Also enjoyed the random updates and photos throughout his stay. Thanks again and look forward to scheduling a day care and/or dog boarding again.”
“Great loving atmosphere for our young dog. He was well loved and we felt so happy he could be with this sweet family in a loving home environment where he obviously got lots of cuddle time. I would be glad to book with Patti and again!”

“Melanie and James were fantastic with Jax! Jax made himself at home soon after my boyfriend and I left. Melanie and James are very personable people. We will definitely book with them again if/when the need arises.”
“Thankful to be able to find a last minute sitter for our trip! Our dogs had such a great weekend and we would definitely bring them back if we’re ever in the area again!!”
About: I’ve had a dog my entire life. I love loving on these sweet fur babies and my sweet Koda girl who is only 2 loves having a playmate around. I am currently off work for the whole summer so am around majority of the time to care for your fur babies! When I do go back to work in the fall, we are free most weekends and home by 3:30 each day! I have a fenced in yard. I also have a two year-old German Shepherd mix who loves to play with other dogs! We have plenty of room for a crate if needed.
About: Hi! I’m a mom of two, a golden retriever owner, and a devoted plant parent, so I understand how much love and attention goes into caring for the things that matter most. I treat every pet like part of my own home and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. In addition to walks and drop-ins, I’m happy to bring in mail and packages, take care of trash bins, water plants, feed fish or other small pets, and keep an eye on your home so you can come back to everything just as you left it. For boarding, your pup will have plenty of space to relax, play, or just hang out. We have a fenced backyard, a walkable neighborhood, and a friendly golden retriever who loves having company. For safety, I do require that all dogs be comfortable around young children. If any concerns come up, I’ll contact you right away to make sure everyone stays safe and comfortable. Your pet will be well cared for here. 🐾 I work full time at Vanderbilt University and operate on a hybrid schedule, giving me consistent availability throughout the week. With my 2 boys in daycare during the day, I am able to dedicate focused, uninterrupted time to your pet. My husband is also able to work from home on the days I am in office. I care for pets the same way I care for my own, with consistency, attention, and a calm, safe environment. I have an 8-year-old golden retriever, so I’m very used to daily routines, reading dog behavior, and making sure everyone feels comfortable and secure. For walks, I follow your dogs pace or can follow your instructions and handle them exactly how your dog is used to. For boarding, pets become part of our home. We have a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and a walkable neighborhood for regular walks. I supervise interactions closely and make sure every dog has space to relax or play depending on their personality. My golden retriever is friendly and helps new dogs settle in, but I always prioritize a calm, controlled environment.
“Desiree was extremely prompt with communication and was very accommodating with our dropoff and pickup time. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she sent and I know my pup has a great time while he was there. Would definitely rebook in the future!”
“Rumba had another great time at Megan’s house. I never have to worry about her care when she is with Megan. It’s great to be able to travel and know my dog is being loved and cared for.”
