Canine Handler and a Dog Groomer

I am a professional dog groomer and canine colorist. I work from home by providing boarding, grooming and dog photography I G : @ anais_hayden I have been creative and dog grooming for 24 years. I have grooming certifications from Penn Foster, Creative Groomers Association and Nash Academy and Opawz. I have been featured in Groomer to Groomer magazine, Southern Living magazine and Jezebel magazine. My work has been on tv shows and movies such Martha Stewart, ABC's 20/20, ULIAD, USA Today, Daily Mail, Vh1, Well Groomed, Family By the Ton, Opawz ifashion book, Ripley’s Believe it or not, Anderson Cooper and Haute Dog Season 1 on HBOMAX. I have been on CBS News and did Creative Grooming for the movies The Hunger Games and Triple 9. I won my first Creative Grooming competition in 2011 with my Chinese Crested Powderpuff name Swinger at the Atlanta Pet Fair. My most recent achievement is becoming an ambassador for Wahl. Aside from my grooming business, Swinger and I attend many festivities throughout the city. We attend dog parties/events and parades such as Gay PRIDE, Lupus Awarness, and holiday themed parades such as St. Patrick's Day where I have him colored and designed to match the themes. Swinger and I go to art shows and Human Hair shows like The International Bronner Brothers Hair Show. I have also done pro bono work with the Atlanta Humane Society and Angels Among Us to help get sheltered dogs adopted. Business hours are 8am-8pm. When boarding your dog if your flight or travel plans are before or after my business hours then please plan to pick up and/or drop off accordingly so that your not trying to come after or before my business hours. I understand that you are trying avoid paying for an extra night but please be courteous of the hours of operation. Upon constant supervision the dogs roam free inside with me and my family as well as be able to play and socialize in the fenced backyard during the day. All you need to bring is food at drop off. My home with my family will be their home away from home as they enjoy their own canine vacation 🤗❤️ **During the holidays I book up very quickly so it is imperative that you book early and as soon as you can.

I knew from the first moment we met that Anais was going to be just the energy Dolly needed to watch her: calming, knowledgeable, took instructions seriously, etc. When it was time to pick up Dolly she wanted to stay with her and wouldn’t get in the car! I will be inquiring about her schedule again very soon as I travel abroad for work a few times a year.

Anais is AMAZING! I really enjoyed how she provided quality care for my anxious pup. We will be coming back soon and this time we’ll include grooming care as part of our package. Thank you SO much, Anais!

Anais was phenomenal! She took care of my elderly chihuahua for 10 days while I was on vacation. She was professional, responsive, and fairly priced. Fenced yard in a beautiful neighborhood, and she even did a tropical photoshoot for my pup! I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Anais again!

Carmy had a great stay with Anais, would definitely book again. She provided updates on how Carmy was doing and sent a sweet vacation picture of Carmy. The drop off and pick up were super quick and efficient, which I really appreciated.
