Give your pets a better outdoor space with pet-friendly turf in Middle Tennessee.
Back Nine Turf installs artificial turf areas for homeowners throughout Middle Tennessee, including Gordonsville, Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, Spring Hill, Thompson’s Station, Cookeville, Murfreesboro, Hendersonville, Columbia, Lebanon, Lynchburg, and nearby communities.
Whether you have one dog, multiple pets, or a backyard that needs a dedicated pet area, we can help design a turf layout that fits your property and routine.
Pet-friendly turf is not just about replacing grass. It is about creating an outdoor area that works for the way your household actually lives. Pets run, play, rest, and use the same areas of the yard again and again. Over time, natural grass can become worn, patchy, muddy, or difficult to maintain in those high-use areas.
Back Nine Turf serves homeowners throughout Middle Tennessee with artificial turf solutions for backyards, pet spaces, dog runs, patios, recreation areas, and specialty outdoor projects.

A pet area should be planned differently than a standard lawn.
Pets often create repeated traffic patterns. They may run along fences, gather near gates, use certain corners of the yard, or spend most of their time close to patios and doors. Because of that, the turf layout should be designed around movement, access, cleanup, and regular use.
During the planning stage, Back Nine Turf considers:
The goal is to create a pet-friendly turf area that looks clean, fits the yard, and supports everyday use.
Some parts of a yard naturally get more wear than others.
Pets may use the same pathway between the back door and fence. They may run the same route when playing. They may rest in the same shaded area or gather in a specific corner of the property. These repeated patterns can make natural grass harder to maintain.
Pet-friendly artificial turf can be used in areas where natural grass is not holding up well.
Common pet turf areas include:
A pet turf installation can cover a full backyard or only a selected part of the property. Back Nine Turf can help determine which approach makes the most sense for your space.
Homeowners who want a broader lawn upgrade can also review our residential artificial turf options for Middle Tennessee homes. A pet-friendly turf area can be installed by itself or as part of a larger residential turf project.
For many homeowners, the backyard is the main outdoor space for pets.
A backyard may need to support several uses at once. Pets may use it daily, children may play there, guests may gather there, and the family may want the space to look neat from the patio or back windows.
Back Nine Turf can help plan a layout that separates or combines different areas depending on your goals.
A backyard pet turf project may include:
Some homeowners want a pet-specific section. Others want the entire backyard converted into artificial turf so the full space feels consistent. The right choice depends on the size of the yard, how pets use it, and how the rest of the family uses the space.
A dog run or dedicated pet zone can be useful when you want to contain pet activity to one part of the yard.
This type of installation may work well along the side of a house, beside a fence, near a gate, or in a backyard section that is already used by pets. The turf area can be shaped to match the available space and planned around the way your pets move through the yard.
Dedicated pet areas may be useful for:
A dedicated pet turf area can also help keep the rest of the outdoor space organized. It gives pets a specific place to run, play, and use while leaving other areas available for entertaining, gardening, or family activities.
Many pets naturally stay close to the house.
That means the area near a patio, porch, or back door may see more activity than the rest of the lawn. When natural grass near those spaces becomes worn or difficult to maintain, artificial turf can help create a cleaner, more finished transition between the home and yard.
Pet-friendly turf can be planned near:
For homeowners who are improving the area around an outdoor living space, our poolside and patio turf installations in Middle Tennessee can help connect pet-friendly turf with the places where your family already spends time.
The layout should feel connected instead of pieced together. Back Nine Turf considers how the pet area, patio, lawn, and surrounding features work as one outdoor space.
Many families need one yard to serve several purposes.
The same backyard may be used by pets, children, guests, and adults. That means the layout should be planned carefully. A pet-friendly turf project can include open areas for play, separate zones for pets, and connections to other recreation spaces.
When the yard will be shared by pets and children, it helps to think through:
Back Nine Turf also installs artificial turf for play areas and specialty spaces. This can be helpful when a yard needs more than a basic lawn or pet zone.
A well-planned backyard can give pets a practical space while still leaving room for the rest of the family to enjoy the outdoors.
Some homeowners want a backyard that works for both pets and recreation.
A custom putting green can be included in the same overall backyard plan as a pet-friendly turf area. These spaces can be separated, connected with surrounding turf, or designed as different zones within the same yard.
For example, one section of the yard may be used for pets, while another is designed for golf practice or family entertainment. Planning both areas together helps the finished backyard feel more complete.

When combining a pet area and putting green, important planning details include:
This type of project can turn an ordinary yard into a more useful outdoor space for both pets and people.
Pet-friendly turf may also be useful for certain commercial or shared-use properties.
Property managers, business owners, and community spaces may need outdoor turf areas that are planned for regular pet use. These areas may serve residents, guests, employees, or customers depending on the property type.
Pet-friendly turf may be considered for:
Back Nine Turf provides commercial artificial turf services in Middle Tennessee for businesses and shared properties that need custom turf installations.
Commercial and shared pet turf areas should be planned around expected use, access, layout, and the people responsible for maintaining the space.
Not every pet turf project needs to be the same size.
Some homeowners want a full artificial lawn so the entire backyard is easier to use. Others only need a smaller dedicated pet area. Back Nine Turf can help review the property and decide which option better matches your goals.
A full-yard turf installation may make sense when:
A smaller pet section may make sense when:
The best option depends on your property, your pets, and how you want the finished yard to function.
The process starts with a conversation.
Helpful details include:
You do not need to know the final layout before contacting us. The first step is simply understanding what you want the space to do.
Next, the proposed turf area is reviewed as a complete outdoor space.
We look at the shape of the yard, access points, borders, drainage needs, nearby hard surfaces, and how the pet area will connect to the rest of the property.
The turf layout is planned around the way the area will be used.
This may include deciding whether the turf will cover the whole yard or only one section, where the edges should go, how the area connects to gates and patios, and whether other turf features should be included.
The installation area is prepared based on the project plan and current condition of the property.
Preparation matters because the finished turf area should match the intended shape, use, and layout of the yard.
The turf is installed according to the planned design. Borders, transitions, and nearby features are completed based on the approved layout.
After installation, the completed area is reviewed to make sure the layout, edges, and overall appearance match the project goals.

We do not believe every pet turf installation should look the same.
A small dog run needs a different plan than a full backyard. A yard shared by children and pets needs a different layout than a side-yard pet area. A home with a future putting green or patio upgrade may need the turf designed as part of a larger outdoor plan.
Back Nine Turf helps create a pet-friendly artificial turf space that fits your property and your household.
