Happy Tales in the Heart of it All

April 5th, 2024

Let’s face it, our pets are just family members with fur, so why shouldn’t they be allowed to wag along with us on our adventures? Whether they’re on a leash, in a stroller, or perched in a fashionable kitty cat backpack, all pets are welcome. When you live at Savannah Quarters, you’re close to all sorts of pet-friendly opportunities. So, we’ve put together a little list of places for you to explore with your best buddies.

Embark on a Doggy Day Trip

No matter what you’re in the mood for, Savannah is full of dog-friendly experiences. Start your day with some award-winning roasts at The Coffee Fox in the iconic City Market. Enjoy your brew at one of the outdoor tables, or get it to go and enjoy a leisurely jaunt over to Oliver Bentleys Historic Savannah Dog Walk Tour, where “history isn’t just for humans.” Learn about Savannah’s rich history as you meander through some of the city’s most bustling squares punctuated by lush, colorful spaces that are perfect for Fido photo ops.

If you and your pooch are water lovers, roll down the windows and enjoy an hour’s drive to Tybee Island. There are several pet-friendly watersports companies, so strap on your life jackets and paddle or kayak around the island — you may even spot a dolphin or two!

After you’ve rowed up an appetite, hit Tubby’s Tank House on the way back home. There are water bowls and plenty of room for your fuzzy buddy to lounge while you enjoy their fresh, local seafood dishes. 

After a day like that, watch their little legs wiggle while they dream about their best day ever!

Feline Fine at The Spa

We didn’t forget the kitties! No matter how finicky, your feline friend will love being pampered at The Savannah Groom Room. Their grooming menu offers calming foam baths, gentle nail trims, custom haircuts, and luxurious brushings. Your kitten will be purring all the way home to prance around like royalty.

Maybe you’re looking to add to your furry purring brood. There’s no experience more heartwarming than an afternoon at Savannah’s Pounce Cat Café and Wine Bar. Sip a delicious beverage, nibble on a flaky pastry, and get your fill of rubs, snuggles, and cuddles. But Pounce’s mission is what really makes them special. 

Pounce has teamed up with The Humane Society for Greater Savannah. If and when you fall in love with their resident kitties, you can take one back home to spoil rotten. For that, we give Pounce four fuzzy paws up.

When you pal around town with your pets, it’s not just more fun, it’s healthy, too. Giving your pet new adventures keeps them stimulated and happy-hearted.


Live in the heart of it all at Savannah Quarters. Live in a welcoming, comforting community that is close to the thriving, pet-friendly city that keeps our two- and four-legged family members engaged and entertained. Of course, you can always stay home and bring your fuzzy buddies to our leash-free dog park where they can wiggle and sniff to their hearts’ content.
