Moving to Atlanta with a Dog? Here’s How to Keep Your Pup Happy While You Settle In

You just moved to Atlanta — welcome! The boxes are everywhere, the GPS is your best friend, and you’re still figuring out which coffee shop is your new favorite. But there’s one family member who’s even more overwhelmed: your dog.

Maybe you’ve noticed the anxious pacing, the extra barking, or those longing eyes when you grab your keys. If your heart aches with guilt every time you leave for work, we see you — and we’re here to help.

At Praline’s Backyard Dog Services, we believe that when your dog is calm, happy, and cared for, you can breathe easier too. That’s why we specialize in enrichment-based dog walking for Atlanta’s busiest pet parents.


Busy Days, Guilty Feelings, and a Longing for Balance

Let’s face it — moving to a new city is a lot. Between work, unpacking, and navigating Atlanta traffic, you barely have time to walk your dog, much less give them the mental stimulation they need. You’re not a bad dog parent — you’re just stretched thin.

That’s where the guilt creeps in.

You know your dog deserves more than a rushed bathroom break. You want them to feel at home here too. And deep down, you believe what we believe: a balanced life is a happy life — for both of you.


Atlanta’s Premier Enrichment Walkers

At Praline’s Backyard, we’re not your average dog walkers. We’re certified, GPS-tracked, enrichment-loving professionals who treat your dog like our own.

From sniff breaks and brain games to sensory activities and pup-approved field trips, we tailor every visit to your dog’s unique personality and energy level — because enrichment isn’t extra, it’s essential.

We’ve helped hundreds of busy Atlanta dog parents — including new residents — build a new rhythm that keeps their dog engaged and their schedule sane.

Avoid the Downside

Don’t wait until your dog’s behavior starts to change or your stress gets too high. Without daily enrichment and structure, dogs can become anxious, destructive, or withdrawn — especially after a big move.

Picture this: You head to work confident that your dog will be exercised, mentally engaged, and happy — even before the boxes are unpacked. You’ll come home to a calm, content companion… and no guilt.
