Vet Tech and a bulldog
Pet care experience
We have a hyper 2 year old bulldog puppy named Rose and a sweet lazy 11 year old pibble mix named Stella. Rose's favorite thing is to run around in circles in the backyard with her toys in her mouth and Stella's favorite thing is sleeping while smiling. The main reason we dog sit is to find great doggy buddies for our puppy Rose. We love having doggy play fests and obviously Rose loves having puppy playtime too. We look for puppies that are about the rough and tumble life. Rose plays like a small hippo and needs friends who wrestle as hard as she does. As a general rule, we've found that medium sized (20-60 lb) compact high energy pups fit her playstyle (examples: bully breeds, Boston terriers, small pitbulls, Australian shepherds/border collies, smaller sized labs/retrievers, etc) though this isn't to rule out other breeds and sizes. Rose also has made great friends with an 8 pound jack russel terrier mix that uses her entire body weight to play big and an 80 pound Great Dane puppy that played while laying down. If your dog requires any medication (oral, otic, optic, etc.), injections, is diabetic, or has any medical conditions you treat daily at home, as a vet technician I would be happy to administer these to your dog as needed. I am also fully willing to discuss adding on nail trims, ear cleanings, baths, and anal gland expressions, if your dog requires during their stay with us. Whatever your dog needs during its' vacation, whether it is a comfy quiet relaxed environment, or a fun-filled exercise rompus, we are able to cater to you and your dog's needs. Our dogs lie on opposite ends of the crazy energizer bunny to lazy lump spectrum and so wherever your dog falls, they will have a buddy to hang out with. If you have any questions, concerns, or special needs requests, please let us know so we can be sure to provide the best care for your pet.
Reviews
Anika & Grant are awesome. They took excellent care of our little Boston.
I can’t say enough good things about Anika and Grant. I had to evacuate my home to Savannah due to Hurricane Florence and could not find a pet friendly hotel. I reached out to Anika and Grant and they were extremely accommodating and kind. When we met, I instantly felt comfortable leaving my dogs in their care and their home is set up well to accommodate visiting dogs. Anika sent constant updates and was very knowledgeable about dogs. I visited my dogs during their stay and saw that they were very comfortable and affectionate with Anika and Grant. My only regret is that they do not live near me so that I could use them more often. I do not hesitate to reccomend them for dog boarding in their home.
They were so good with our boys!! Definitely going to use them from now on!!!
Anika has watched my dog several times and she's always great! I know my pup is in good hands and he loves playing with her dogs. She's very communicative and accommodating.

Information Anika & Grant R. would like to know about your pet
We do require a meet and greet before each new pet boarding or daycare. Like people, dogs have different personalities and not all of them get along perfectly. We also prefer dogs that are crate trained, as our girls are. Staying in a new place can be very confusing and stressful for your pup and having their crate as a familiar space in our house can be very calming for them, as well as allowing us to be able to run out to the grocery store without worrying about an overexcited or nervous puppy trying to nibble on a chair :)
