Buster set the standard.

Black Dog is owner operated out of Melbourne, Florida, working across Brevard County since June 2021.

Buster, bed bug detection K9. The business has carried his name since 2021.

Black Dog Lawn & Pools was founded in June 2021, inspired by Buster, a working K9 who spent his days helping people as a bed bug detection dog.

After Buster passed, we wanted to honor his legacy and his work ethic by building something new: a business rooted in the same values of loyalty, service and drive.

What started as a small operation has grown into a trusted name across Brevard County, serving both residential and commercial properties. From lawn care to pool maintenance, our team approaches every job with the same dedication and attention to detail that Buster brought to his work.

We genuinely enjoy the customers we serve, and we take pride in delivering high quality, dependable service. The strong relationships we have built and our high customer retention speak volumes. At Black Dog we are not just maintaining lawns and pools, we are carrying on a legacy of care, trust and hard work.

Best of 2026.

BusinessRate named Black Dog a Best of 2026 Award Winner for Lawn Care Service in Melbourne, FL. The award is scored from Google review data, which means it was decided by the people whose lawns and pools we actually look after.

That matters more here than a logo on a website. Every one of the 108 reviews behind our 4.7 average came from a real property in this county.

What customers keep describing.

They go above and beyond

I've been using black dawg landscaping & pools for the last 2-3 months and today I asked them to retrieve the dead palms that fell off my palm tree and how much it would cost. They said it's provided in their service and immediately had the crew start hauling the palms. I've had excellent and consistent service. They even mowed my lawn on 4th of July! I've had children's toys in my yard on mowing days and they move them if we forget. They go above and beyond!!

Most reliable service I've had

Most reliable service I've had. Others have missed cuts and offer all kinds of excuses but not Black Dog. Always leave a good looking yard.

Courteous and professional

Zach and his crew are always courteous and professional. Just this morning, they took the time to help me with clearing debris from our yard from yesterday's storm. It made my job easier for sure...many thanks!
