Courtney was great! My dog has separation anxiety & is usually freaking out when I get home after being gone all day. But this time, she was calm and happy. She clearly loved Courtney!

Taylor was such an amazing sitter! She gave me detailed updates every time she checked in on the pups. Will definitely hire her again if she is available :)

Sheana came through when I was in a pinch. I needed someone to let the dogs out because I was stuck in traffic in the mountains. She responded last minute and had excellent communication. She’s the best!

It was our first time leaving Skittles with a sitter, and Daniel did a great job of assuaging our fears! He was super communicative and made sure we knew that Skittles was in good hands. Highly recommend!

Kelli was awesome boarding my two dogs. Not only did she give daily updates with videos and pictures she also worked with them on introducing them to her cat and getting used to her big dogs. Can't recommend enough!

The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Toccoa

Toccoa Falls

The campus of Toccoa Falls College, a small private institution known for its seminary, is inside Toccoa city limits but set apart from downtown. For a small admission fee that helps support upkeep, you and your on-leash buddy can explore the campus and a short hiking trail to the city's main attraction: the stunning 186-foot Toccoa Falls. This sheer-drop waterfall is higher even than Niagra, and the trail to reach it is wheelchair and stroller accessible. The area has a sad history, though. In 1977, the dam above the falls broke during the night, drowning 39 students, staff, and family members on the campus below in the early morning of November 6. In spite of that somber past, visitors throng to enjoy the spectacular beauty of the falls, and Spot will love it, too.

Camp Toccoa / Currahee Mountain

As fans of the book or HBO miniseries Band of Brothers already know, Camp Toccoa at Currahee Mountain just outside of town was an important training site in the buildup to the D-Day invasion. Take your pup along for a walk through time as you visit the location of these crucial events. The three-mile up, three-mile back journey up Currahee Mountain was a standard training exercise for the parachute infantrymen who trained there, also depicted in Saving Private Ryan and Dirty Dozen. That trek is now the Col. Robert F. Sink Trail. The trail marker was contributed by Tom Hanks, but don't expect any celebrity sightings: this remote location off a dirt road is best reached with good directions (available on the Toccoa city website). Nearby is the Camp Toccoa Military Monument on the site of the old camp.

Tallulah Falls

Let's hope Spot isn't afraid of heights. Tallulah Gorge State Park is only 18 miles from Taccoa, and it offers hiking around the rim of this 2-mile long, 1,000-foot deep canyon, one of the most dramatic in the eastern US. The rim trail includes postcard-worthy views of Bridal Veil Falls, Oceana Falls, and Cascade Falls. Note that dogs aren't allowed Sliding Rock Trail, gorge floor, or Hurricane Falls bridge staircase, and that's for their own protection on this steep terrain. That's okay: pups are welcome on the other spectacular trails near Tallulah Falls, though. The Panther Creek Falls Trail is an 11-mile moderately difficult trail, and a 7-mile roundtrip from the parking area near unincorporated Turnerville takes you to another beautiful waterfall.

Lavonia-Tugaloo

Tugaloo State Park has a funny name, but the 4 miles of hiking trails are serious business. A water-dog's dream, the park is a 400 acres peninsula extending out into the 55,000-acre Lake Hartwell. So, even though the trail network extends into every corner of the park, there's always a view of the water. Dog-friendly waterfront camping is available, too. The nearby town of Lavonia has some amenities if you get tired of ruff-ing it. J. Peters Grill in the old-fashioned downtown shopping district gives you an excuse to window shop for a while. If you're not ready to leave the lakeside, though, try Catfish Johnny's at Harbor Light Marina for a dog-friendly outdoor table with a Hartwell view.

Downtown Cornelia

While it's a drag that the closest off-leash dog park is 17 miles from Toccoa, it's fantastic that the park is located in adorable Cornelia. This fenced dog run on the western edge of Cornelia City Park is free to the public, great for relaxing while your buddy frisks with his new doggy friends. Join in the exercise back on leash on the one-mile roundtrip paved walking trail. When you're parked out, head a few blocks southwest to Main Street for a stroll through the historic downtown commercial district. Make sure you stop by the railroad depot to sniff out the gigantic apple statue gifted to the town by the Southern Railway in 1925 to honor its apple-producing heritage. Let's be honest, how many 5,200-pound steel apples are you really going to see in your life?
