About

A Better Way to Care for Your Dog

At Praline’s Backyard Dog Services, we help busy Atlanta dog parents who love their dogs but don’t always have time. Long days, work trips, and changing schedules happen—and that’s where we come in.

We don’t just walk dogs. We make each visit fun and calming. We play games, give brain boosters, and help dogs feel safe and seen.

Why Dog Parents Choose Us:

✔️ You’re not just hiring a walker—you’re getting a trained team
✔️ We’re certified in Fear Free care, dog CPR, and dog behavior
✔️ We send photos, videos, and updates after each visit
✔️ We work with shy dogs, energetic dogs, and every pup in between

Start with a quick phone call!  We’ll learn about your dog and see if we’re a good match. You’ll get peace of mind, and your dog will get love, play, and care.
