Every Single Visit

What Your Dog Actually Gets

Enrichment, not just a walk

A walk moves your dog's body. Enrichment uses their instincts — sniffing, foraging, problem-solving. Every visit does both, with a new activity each month.

A fulfilled dog, not just a tired one.

A routine that doesn't depend on you

Your timeslot is held and your care team is assigned. Vet at 2 and you can't leave work? We drive them. Flight delayed? Text us — we're with your dog by 6.

Travel or work without the guilt.

You see every single visit

Photos, video, GPS and a written update after every walk — what they did, how they were, and anything that seemed off.

Always know how your dog is doing.

We’ve been using Praline’s Backyard since Feb 2026 and can’t say enough good things. First and foremost, every single walker is incredibly loving, kind, and patient with our dogs. I feel like they treat them with the love and care they treat their own dogs. We have cameras, and whenever I have rewatched a clip, I am always so impressed. It’s clear that the dog walkers are vetted and trained carefully. They even did a few visits at the tail-end of my puppy recovering from major emergency surgery, and they were so careful and incredible with her. On the more logistical side, they are extremely communicative and the owner is so responsive. I love the app they use because it notifies me when they arrive for a walk, leave, and all walkers leave great after-visit notes with some of the most amazing pictures and videos. I also love that I can see a GPS map of where they walked and that they can message me when they’re with her in case anything comes up. I think they are worth every penny and highly recommend!

Orazie and her team at Praline's Backyard Dog Services are truly exceptional. I have four fur babies, each with a big personality, and they care for them as if they were their own. Knowing my dogs are in such loving and capable hands allows me to travel with complete peace of mind and fully enjoy vacations with my family. Not only do they make sure my pets are well cared for, but they also spend quality time with them, playing with them outside and giving them the attention and exercise they need. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. What impresses me most is their reliability and flexibility. On more than one occasion, I've had unexpected family emergencies that required me to leave town on short notice. Even when reaching out through the app at the last minute, Orazie and her team have gone above and beyond to accommodate my pets' needs. Another thing I greatly appreciate is the respect they show for my home. Every time I return, my house is clean, organized, and left exactly as I left it. That level of care and professionalism gives me even greater confidence in their services. Their compassion, dedication, and attention to detail are unmatched. I am incredibly grateful for the care they provide and highly recommend Orazie and her team to anyone looking for trustworthy, dependable, and loving pet care. Thank you for your amazing care and service -Brittany

I came in on a promo and had the best experience! Orazie started off with my dog Milo until he got use to the new routine where he was then introduced to a new walker! Both were amazing. Milo enjoy his daily walks, puzzle time, and all the love and attention when I was away at work. Definitely saw a difference in his behavior and overall seemed like a much happier dog. They take pictures and send a daily report of your walk and all the activities they did….loved the updates and the cute pictures. Unfortunately, I moved out of the city, so wasn’t able to keep up with the service. But when I do move back in the area this is the dog service I would definitely use again and I highly recommend them if you’re curious about adding some extra fun to your dogs routine.

The Praline’s team has been great to work with from our initial background meeting through our weekly walking services. They are super attentive to our pups needs who can be anxious, and they do everything they can to make him feel safe and comfortable. We love to see post-walk pictures and videos from Michael who has become one of our pups best friends in just a short time.

Worth every penny. We've been using Pralines the last few months after our older dog walker retired and could not be more pleased. Very responsive, easy to navigate app to book services, top-notch customer service, we (and our dogs) could not be happier.

I had such a fantastic experience with Praline’s Backyard! Their professionalism and true dedication to pet care really stood out to me. I had to head out of town for a trip, and Orazie (the Founder, CEO and president) completely put my mind at ease. She personally made sure my dog was taken care of from start to finish, no stress and no worries on my end at all. She picked him up right from my home, safely transported him to his boarding facility, and even kept me updated with the cutest pictures and little updates about his journey. What really impressed me was that she did the exact same thing on the return, picking him up and bringing him safely back home. The entire process was seamless, easy, and honestly such a relief while I was traveling. You can tell she truly cares, and that level of attention and dedication means everything when it comes to our pets. I highly recommend Praline’s Backyard for any pet services, especially if you need a reliable pet taxi, dog walking, or just someone you can truly trust with your furry family member!

This service has blessed me and my dog Louie so much. I know they care for my dog and they take care of him. He loves to see them coming and I appreciate them leaning in especially when I’m traveling. Thank you so much! Please consider using this service - you won’t be disappointed.

Inside a visit

So what is your dog actually doing for forty minutes?

Enrichment is a word that gets used a great deal and explained almost never. Here is the real answer, and the framework underneath it.

Forty minutes, one dog, and no two days the same

Some days it's a trail of smells down the sidewalk, followed at your dog's pace instead of ours. Other days it's treats hidden in the grass to hunt out, a low wall to balance along, a puzzle to work through, or ten quiet minutes of settling in the shade because that's the harder skill for your dog.

Your specialist also reinforces what you're working on at home. Sit at the curb. Loose leash past the dog that barks. We use the words you use, so your dog isn't learning two sets of rules from two sets of people.

The THRIVE framework

Enrichment isn't one thing, and a dog who gets plenty of one kind can still be missing another entirely. We work from six, and we profile every dog against all of them.

T

Tactile & Sensory

Sniff walks, scent games, new textures and sounds. A dog takes in most of the world through their nose, and most walks never let them use it.

H

Health & Movement

Coordination, body awareness, and movement matched to their build and their age. What a young shepherd needs is not what a twelve-year-old needs.

R

Rooted Instincts

Foraging, licking, chewing. The things dogs are built to do all day and almost never get to do in a house.

I

Intellectual Growth

Puzzles, nose work, problem solving. Real mental effort, which tires a dog more thoroughly than distance ever will.

V

Vital Balance

Decompression, calm, settling. For the dog who never quite switches off, learning to rest is the work.

E

Engagement & Bonding

Handling confidence and cooperative care, so the vet and the groomer stop being something your dog dreads.

How your dog's mix gets chosen

During our in home assessment we watch your dog against all six and identify your dog's interests and opportunities to expand and we adjust as they age.

A high-drive two-year-old and an anxious senior both get enrichment on every visit. They almost never get the same enrichment. One needs a job to do; the other needs to learn that nothing is about to happen.

That's why we are Canine Enrichment Specialists rather than JUST dog walkers.

The BALANCED Membership

You'll never wonder again whether your dog got what they needed today.

Balanced is one membership with unlimited visits, seven days a week. One walk goes on the calendar automatically. You add more whenever your day needs them.

What actually changes

A dog who gets to sniff, forage and solve problems every day settles faster, sleeps better, and paces less at home. That's not a mood. It's what happens when the instincts a dog is built around finally get used.

Most dog parents tell us they notice it inside two weeks. The dog who met you at the door wound up is lying down instead.

What you're signing up for

  • Unlimited visits, seven days a week. Every one a full 40 minutes, private, just your dog and their specialist. No cap, no counting, no per-visit charges.
  • One walk a day, scheduled automatically. It's on the calendar before you wake up. You never have to request it.
  • Add a second or third whenever your day changes. Two taps in the app, no phone call, no extra charge.
  • You pick your window, and it's yours every day. Tell us when your dog needs to go out and that slot is held for them daily, whether you use it or not. Not requested each week, not moved around to suit our route.
  • Dog Taxi whenever they need it. Vet at 2 and you can't leave work? We drive them. Groomer, daycare, the same.
  • Two dogs, one membership. No second-dog fee, ever.
  • Weekends exactly like weekdays. No surcharge, no separate request.
  • The same care team every visit. Not whoever's available. The people your dog already knows by name.
  • Zero missed walks in 6+ years. If your walker is out, your care team covers it. You never get a cancellation text.
  • And the things nobody asks us for. An Enrichment Toy of the Month curated for your dog, a birthday field trip with a photoshoot, bandana and a pup cup, and a printed photobook of their year with us every December.
What "unlimited" actually buys you

When you buy a set number of walks and you start counting them. Is today worth using one? Should I save it for Thursday? Unlimited means you never run that calculation.

One walk is already on the calendar before you wake up. Then the meeting runs to seven, or the flight is delayed, or you're stuck across town. You open the app and add a visit. Or two, and your dog is covered for the whole day. No phone call, no scramble, no favor to ask, and nothing added to your bill.

In practice most members use their one daily walk and add a second when the day calls for it. We have never once told a member they'd reached a limit, because there isn't one.

You don't have to know what your week looks like to know your dog is covered.

$1,999 a month

One dog or two. Every day, weekends included. Join mid-month and your first month is prorated.

The Happy Home Guarantee

Try us for thirty days. If your dog isn't happier, email or call and we refund your first month in full. No questions and you keep every photo we took.

.

We open 10 new memberships a month. Your dog's time is held for them every single day, which means it can't be held for anyone else. When we're full, we'll tell you.

Nothing to sign, nothing to pay. If we're not right for your dog, we'll tell you.

Travelling most weeks, or caring for a dog who can't be alone overnight? Concierge adds unlimited overnights in your own home, every dog in the house, and a specialist who stays with your dog through vet appointments. See Concierge below →

What this costs, in order

  1. The 15-minute call. Free. Nothing to sign, nothing to pay, and no obligation to go further.
  2. The 12-Point Dog Lifestyle Assessment. $150. About an hour at your home. You keep four enrichment toys, a bandana, a documented walk with photos, video and GPS, and the written care plan, whether you join us or not.
  3. Membership. $1,999 a month. Walks start the same week, and you can cancel any month.

Concierge

For the dog whose life shouldn't change when you leave.

Some people travel most weeks. Some have a senior dog on medication, or a puppy who can't be alone yet. Concierge is a dedicated team assigned to your dog and to nobody else, which is why last-minute requests simply work. The space was already yours.

Your specialist stays with your dog at the vet.

Not a drop-off. They go in, they stay through the appointment, they hear what the vet says, and they call you. If you're in another time zone, you still know exactly what happened in that room.

What Concierge includes

Unlimited visits, every day

One is scheduled automatically. Add as many more as the day calls for in the app, seven days a week. No counting, no caps, no charge.

Unlimited overnights at home

Your dog never boards and never adjusts to a strange place. Your specialist comes to them.

Every dog in the house

All of them included. No per-dog fee at any point.

Dog Field Trips

A planned enrichment outing whenever your dog needs more than the neighborhood.

Medication and daily health notes

Given on schedule and logged every visit, with a written note on how they were.

Home watch while you're away

Mail, lights, a walk through the house. You come home to the house you left.

A dedicated Coordinator

A direct line, seven days a week. One person who knows your dog and your schedule.

No surcharges. Ever.

Holidays, weekends, after hours, no notice. The price is the price.

Everything in the $1,999 membership comes with it — the daily auto-scheduled walk, unlimited visits whenever your day changes, the Enrichment Toy of the Month, the birthday field trip and photoshoot, the December photobook, and photos, video and GPS after every single visit. Concierge adds the nights, the vet appointments and the house.

$10,000 a month

All your dogs. Every day, every night, every holiday. No contract, no term, and the same eight promises on every single visit.

If it isn't right, you're not stuck. Cancel any time in your first month and we'll refund every day we haven't served.

A real conversation about your dog and your travel, not a sales call.

2

Concierge memberships open each month. Your care team isn't assigned to anyone else, which is the whole reason no-notice requests work. When both are taken, we'll tell you.

Before you book

The five things people ask on the call.

There's one plan, and it's unlimited. That's deliberate.

The minute you buy a set number of walks, you start counting them. Is today worth using one? Should I hold one back in case Thursday falls apart? It's a small thing to decide, but you'd decide it every morning, about your dog, on top of everything already on you.

Unlimited takes the question away. The walk is already there. If your day gets away from you, there's another one, and using it costs you nothing.

You're not buying walks. You're buying the end of thinking about it.

Everything else is answered on our full FAQ page, or ask it on a free 15-minute call. You can also call us on (404) 702-4453.

The next step

Let's talk about your dog.

Fifteen minutes on the phone. You'll hang up knowing what we'd recommend for your dog, what it would cost, and whether we have room in your neighborhood.

You don't have to have decided anything

Most people book this call to work out whether daily care makes sense at all. Coming in undecided is not a problem. It's the point.

You'll be talking to Orazie

The founder, who started this because of her own dog, Praline and brings twenty years in public health and animal welfare. Not a sales team.

If we're not right, we'll say so

That's most of what this call is for. We would rather point you somewhere better than start a membership that was never going to work.
