Two walks everyday built around your dog's instincts: scent trails, foraging, puzzle games. Their own three-person care team means their routine never depends on your schedule. Zero missed walks in six years.
Free 15-minute call.
Why people call
Back in the office three days, or five. The dog who had company all day suddenly doesn't, and nothing else about the house changed to make up for it.
Somewhere around eight months the chewing stopped being funny. Most of what looks like a behavior problem at that age is just an unspent day.
A move, a new job, a baby, a surgery to recover from, a dog who is quietly getting older. The routine went with it and hasn't come back.
They're fine. You know they're fine. You also know that fine isn't what you pictured for them, and you think about it most days on the drive home.
None of these sorts itself out. A dog with an empty day doesn't wait quietly for it to end, they fill it, and by the time you're annoyed about the baseboards it has been a habit for a month. That's the part that gets harder to undo the longer it runs, and it's the first thing a daily routine fixes.
Most dogs have their first walk within a week of the assessment.
If one of those weeks is yours, keep reading. If two of them are, book the call.
Every Single Visit
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.
Your timeslot is held and your care team is assigned. Vet at 2 and you can't leave work? We drive them. Flight delayed? Add a visit in the app and we're with your dog by 6.
Travel or work without the guilt.
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.
Inside a visit
Enrichment is a word that gets used a great deal and explained almost never. Here is the real answer, and the framework underneath it.
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.
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.
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.
Foraging, licking, chewing. The things dogs are built to do all day and almost never get to do in a house.
Puzzles, nose work, problem solving. Real mental effort, which tires a dog more thoroughly than distance ever will.
Decompression, calm, settling. For the dog who never quite switches off, learning to rest is the work.
Handling confidence and cooperative care, so the vet and the groomer stop being something your dog dreads.
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
Balanced is one membership, seven days a week. Two walks are on the calendar every day before you wake up. If your dog needs more, you add them whenever your day calls for it, at no additional cost.
Most dog parents tell us they notice a more settled dog within two weeks. The dog who used to meet them at the door wound up is lying down, ready for cuddle time.
What your membership includes
When you buy a set number of walks, you start counting them. Is today worth using one? Should I save it for Thursday? With Balanced, you never run that calculation.
Two walks are already on the calendar before you wake up. Then the meeting runs to seven, or the flight is delayed. You open the app and add a visit, and your dog is covered for the whole day. No phone call, no scramble, and nothing added to your bill.
We have never once told a member they'd used their last walk, because there isn't a last one. You don't have to know what your week looks like to know your dog is covered.
One dog or two. Every day, weekends included.
At your assessment you tell us your goals for your dog and your life, That's our measure of success. If you're not seeing it in 30 days of visits you get a full refund.
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.

The THRIVE Profile
Some dogs need to sniff. Some need to solve something. Some need to settle. There are six pillars, and your dog leans on one or two harder than the rest.
Two minutes, and you'll know which one your dog is and the pillar they're most likely missing right now. For a lot of people that turns out to be the first real explanation they've had for something their dog does.
You'll understand your own dog better tonight than you did this morning, whether or not you ever call us.
Find out what your dog is missing → Free. Two minutes. Nothing to book.What actually happens next
We talk about your dog, your week, and whether we have room in your neighborhood. Nothing to sign, nothing to pay. If we're not right for your dog, we'll say so on this call.
About an hour in your home. Twelve points about your dog and your household, and four enrichment activities drawn from the THRIVE pillars so we can watch how your dog responds to each one. Their care plan comes out of what we see.
You keep the four enrichment toys we use, a Praline's Backyard bandana, a documented 20-minute walk with photos, video and GPS, and your dog's written care plan. Yours, whether you join or not.
Most dogs start the day after their assessment. The first thirty days are covered by the Happy Home Guarantee.
Before you book
One plan, two walks every day, add more anytime
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.
Two walks auto scheduled everyday takes the question away. The walk is already there. If your day gets away from you, add another one, and using it costs you nothing.
You're not buying walks. You're buying the end of thinking about it.
No. No term, no cancellation fee.
Memberships are month to month and you can cancel any month. We'd rather you stay because it's working than because you're stuck.
And for the first thirty days, the Happy Home Guarantee means that if your dog isn't happier, we refund your first month in full. On Concierge, cancel in your first month and we refund every day we haven't served.
About an hour at your home, and you keep everything from it either way.
We introduce your dog to four kinds of enrichment and watch how they respond, then take them out for a 20-minute walk to see how they are on leash, documented with photos, video and GPS.
You keep the four toys, a bandana, the documented walk and a written care plan built for your dog, whether you join us or not. It's also how we assign your care team. Walks start the same week.
Your assigned care team. The same faces every visit.
Everyone is a W-2 employee, background checked, first-aid trained and on our payroll. Not a gig app, and not a stranger who accepted a job on their phone twenty minutes ago.
If your walker is out, someone else on your dog's care team covers it, and it's a person your dog has already met. That's how we've gone six-plus years with zero missed walks.
We serve Intown Atlanta, within seven miles of Midtown.
That includes Midtown, Old Fourth Ward, Grant Park, Inman Park, Virginia-Highland, Kirkwood, East Atlanta Village, Reynoldstown, Cabbagetown, Ormewood Park, Summerhill, West End and the neighborhoods around them.
Because we hold a daily timeslot for every dog, availability is by neighborhood. Book the call and we'll tell you exactly what's open near you.
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
Fifteen minutes on the phone. You'll hang up knowing if we are the best fit for your dog, how we help dogs THRIVE, and whether we have room in your neighborhood.
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.
The founder, who started this because of her own dog, Praline, and brings thirty years of experience in public health and animal welfare. Not a sales team.
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.
Your dog changes in about two weeks. That part we can more or less promise, and it's the part you came here for.
What takes a little longer is you. Most mornings right now you run a small calculation: is today a long one, will he be alright, should I feel bad about leaving. Somewhere in the first month you notice you've stopped running it.
You stop being the person who does that math every day. That's the thing that's actually for sale here. The walks are how we get you there.
That's the cap, and it's the reason a timeslot can be held for your dog daily. What's open depends on your neighborhood, and the call is how you find out.
