Pet care experience

Wide variety of Pet Services offered! We have Daycare, Drop ins, House sitting, Boarding, Grooming, Training, and Walking! We also run a rescue and rehabilitation for unwanted or stray animals! Follow my Instagram @ Groovy Shiba I have been caring for animals since I was a child of about 7 years old. My family frequently rescued and rehabilitated stray animals and I have continued that legacy here in my own home with my rescue/rehome programs, rehabilitation for strays, dog training, and foster care programs. I am partnered with the humane society of greater Savannah as a foster for troubled and sick animals and I have trained and raised many puppies and kittens from bottle. I am passionate about dog breeds and could talk about them for hours! I love Shiba Inus with all of my heart and have two of my own that I have fully trained from rescue pups. I have a fenced in massive yard with lots of shade trees and chicken wire to prevent great escapes. I also have two dogs of my own and a rescue pup that are super friendly and would love to act as a doggy daycare style play group for your pets! (I am able to separate dogs if needed or requested, I have a separate part of the house for special needs care and separate access to the back yard for shy or reactive dogs.) I am fully equipped for puppy and kitten/cat care as well! Your pets will have a vacation of their own here with holistic home made treats and food available upon request and a huge basket of bark box toys to play with! For our feline friends, an entire separate bedroom with cat tower, scratching posts, high quality food and treats upon request, and tons of toys and beds for snuggly naps! All of your pets get devoted playtime and personalized training as well!

We left our pup for the longest she’s ever been left with Kylie, and she took wonderful care of her! She was a little anxious but Kylie made sure to give her extra love. Would definitely use Kylie again!

This experience was great! We were traveling from out of state already due to work 2.5 hours away. We wanted to visit Savannah but needed to find accommodations for our little guy. Kylie was great with last booking & helping with whatever we needed. Totally recommend! I have no doubt that my dude was in good hands for his overnight stay and I was not worried one bit.

DO NOT BOOK THIS SITTER. I honestly don’t know how she has 5 stars. We booked Kylie for a doggie daycare in preparation to use her for a long trip we have planned in the future. We have one dog who does not get along with dogs until he gets used to them. Kylie seemed like the perfect fit, and said everything that I needed to hear to feel comfortable about leaving our dogs with her. We dropped them off and returned a couple hours later to pick them up. After knocking on the door, we quickly realized no one was home and her car was gone. I messaged Kylie twice, and called twice, all with no answer. After knocking on the door for a fourth time, her boyfriend (who we were not introduced to) answered the door and gave us our dogs after spending 15 minutes standing in their yard trying to get ahold of Kylie. It was very obvious we had woken him from a nap and our dogs were not being watched. We watched them through her window for the 20 minutes we stood outside knocking on the door. An hour after we finally got our dogs, Kylie reached out saying she had an emergency at her second job and had to go in. I get it, shit happens, but we paid her to do a job and she did not do it. She left our dogs unattended and failed to communicate with us whatsoever. If you are expecting a boarder who actually watches after your pets while you are gone, I would suggest using someone else. If you don’t care if the boarder is home or not to actually do the job you’re paying them to do, Kylie is your gal.

Information Kylie R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any medical issue, food/resource guarding, dog/people reactivity, or dietary needs. I am willing to provide specialized balanced home made food an treats for you dog upon request with an additional fee. Please note: I welcome dogs of all sizes, medical/behavioral backgrounds, and spay/neuter status; however, if your dog is an unneutered male or a female in heat there will be an additional $10 per night fee for boarding and doggy daycare. Please understand that I occasionally host several guests at once and believe in fostering socialization and exercise through outdoor activity: Unneutered male dogs tend to disturb the other dogs by excessive humping, aggression, or extreme stress/anxiety which brings out reactivity in other dogs. This takes a lot of work to mange. Thank you for understanding!

A typical day

I enjoy taking the dogs to our two close parks nearby and walking them around our friendly neighborhood to get some exercise. We also engage in play and training in the house with lots of toys, kongs, and chews for mental stimulation. Our yard is a great place for the dogs to get some play time together while I monitor from the deck and subroom area. Go follow our Instagram "Groovy Shiba" for even more pictures and videos of your pets while they are are with me!
