The Best In Atlanta. Built on Trust.

As Atlanta’s only membership only private Dog Walking company, we bring years of expertise and dedication to prioritizing your dog’s well-being. Our enrichment-based approach to dog care is customized to meet your dog's physical, mental, and instinctual needs, ensuring they lead happy, fulfilled lives while strengthening the bond between dogs and their families.

Our approach to dog care goes far beyond a quick walk around the block. Each visit is designed to engage the many ways dogs experience the world — through movement, scent, exploration, problem-solving, and purposeful interaction. Some days your dog may follow an interesting trail of smells along the sidewalk. Other days they may search for treats hidden in the grass, practice balance on natural surfaces, or work through a simple puzzle that encourages curiosity and focus. These moments of exploration engage the different forms of enrichment dogs naturally seek — physical activity, scent work, foraging, mental challenges, and environmental discovery. When dogs regularly use their instincts in healthy ways, something powerful happens: they return home calmer, more confident, and deeply satisfied.

Behind every visit is a carefully trained professional team. Our dog walkers are dedicated employees who earn a living wage and receive ongoing education in canine behavior, safety, and enrichment practices. Each team member is thoroughly screened, professionally trained, and certified so you can trust that your dog is always in capable and compassionate hands.

Where Dog Walking and Enrichment Become ROutine

PB Atlanta Dog Walkers' Difference

Praline’s Backyard helps Atlanta dogs settle into routines that support their bodies, their minds, and the rhythm of their family’s life. Our care is designed around a membership approach that makes it easy to build consistency for your dog. Families typically choose between our Starter routine of 8 visits, our Balanced routine of 20 visits, or Unlimited visits for dogs who benefit from support throughout the day.

Visits are flexible and can be used in the way that best supports your dog’s week. Members use them for private enrichment-based walks or a mix of dog taxi visits to the groomer or veterinarian, or to complement a day of structured daycare. We recommend a select few Atlanta daycares that focus on thoughtful engagement rather than simply letting dogs run freely all day.

Seeing your dog regularly allows our team to truly know them — their pace, their instincts, their energy levels, and how their behavior changes over time. Dogs who experience predictable routines and familiar caregivers often become calmer and more confident. Each visit is tailored to your dog’s needs that day. Some dogs benefit from slow, grounding walks. Others need time to sniff, explore, and engage their natural instincts. Senior dogs may enjoy gentle movement and extra patience.

Your dog is cared for by a dedicated team of Fear Free trained employees, not a rotating app walker. The same professionals build a relationship with your dog over time, so you never have to start from scratch with someone new. During every visit, you receive real-time updates, photos, and care notes, so you always know how your dog is doing. Members also gain access to pet sitting and dog field trips, giving your dog opportunities for new experiences while keeping their routine consistent. Our goal is simple: thoughtful, reliable dog care that keeps your dog fulfilled and gives you peace of mind throughout your day.
