Great price

Have to hand it to Jake and team, they really take pride and care when watching our 15 week old Havanese.
After reaching out to him he responded in about 5 minutes and set up a meet and greet at our home. Not only Jake, the owner), came by, but the sitter’s Natalia and Isabella came to the house and answered questions, met and got comfortable with our puppy and us. Natalia visited our puppy twice during the day and sent 4 photos with an update on what they did and how he was each visit. She was just great and you can see she enjoys her visits.
This team is wonderful for taking care of our puppy and our own peace of mind. They just care!
Thanks you guys. See you next time.

Jacob has been absolutely amazing with our dog! We have had him come by for walks and drop-ins during the week while my husband and I are both at work. We are so grateful for the peace of mind he gives us and couldn’t recommend him more highly! He’s super responsive, and sends pictures and a little summary for every drop-in. Our pup has loved him!

Jacob was amazing!! He always makes sure to speak with you before his care for your pet to ensure he has the perfect plan set to execute! I always received updates and pictures of my pup when he took care of him! He went above and beyond caring for my dog. I highly recommend and will be using him again! 10/10

Alliyah is absolutely incredible! She has worked with our dog Stella in multiple capacities, but most recently with training her. Alliyah is a fantastic trainer, she is firm, yet loving and our dog absolutely ADORES her. Stella is a sweet and smart dog, yet struggled with recall and leash walking, but she has grown so much since we have been working with Alliyah. Now Stella has multiple levels of training and is working toward becoming a therapy dog! Alliyah is also helpful in training us as the dog parents, because let’s be honest, the dog parents need to be trained as much as the dogs. I highly recommend Alliyah for any of your dog’s needs!

Jacob is awesome and knowledgeable at what he does! He communicated with me prior to meeting my pup just to get a good idea of how his daily activities operate. When I was away, I had no issues he took pictures and always ensured me that my pup was in good company. Will definitely use again and recommend!!

Jake was absolutely fantastic. He took great care of our boys. We were given daily photo updates and he even cleaned up before he left. We will definitely use Jake again.

Just returned from a trip where we needed a new pet sitter and decided to go with Atlanta Pet Pal. Jake and Anna were fantastic!

Jake made the booking process super easy for us as first-time customers, and Anna took wonderful care of our pets while we were away. Everything went smoothly, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. We have 3 big German shepherds that require lots of exercise and lots of work. Anna made sure to exercise the pups daily and even swam in the pool with them.

They also gave us daily report cards which we really liked. I highly recommend Atlanta Pet Pal! Thank you!

00% recommended!
We had never left our dogs with anyone other than one specific family friend, but once we did the meeting with Jacob we could tell this would work out. He was very patient and sweet with the dogs and you could tell he knew how to handle situation with dogs like ours.
We left for 4 days, and he was always in contact and sending us pictures, and our dogs looked so happy and spoiled!
He was also very respectful of our home, which we really appreciate.
We will definitely use his services again!

Alliyah is amazing! Our girl Raya was very nervous and lacked confidence and she connected with Alliyah almost immediately, the progress she has made in the past few months is more than we expected, she continues to grow and build on her skills each session. Raya also loves her enrichment walks with Alliyah, she comes home tired and ready for a good nap which is perfect! We couldn’t ask for a better trainer!

Jacob was amazing! He dog sat for us for a week and we could not have asked for a better experience. Jacob is great with the dogs and very professional. We had an initial meeting to introduce ourselves, our dogs, and set expectations. That is when we learned Jacob is really The Dog Whisperer! One of our boys tends to be a little shy but from the moment Jacob walked in the door, our guy was right there asking (and of course receiving) scratches. We received text updates, photos, and videos of our dogs while we were gone, and came home to a clean house where Jacob more than cleaned up behind himself. We cannot recommend Jacob highly enough.

Jake did a great job and was very professional! My dog loved him right from the start. I will definitely use him again for the various services offered!

Working with Alliyah has changed everything for our lives with our dog. Our dog was so reactive, we couldn’t take her anywhere. She would even get herself out of her harness. After just a few short weeks working with Alliyah, I can take her anywhere. I highly recommend Ga Pet Pal. We also use them to come into our home and take care of the dog while we have a long day away from her.

Jake is phenomenal! He takes great care of my German Shepherd Thor and Thor loves him as well! He pays attention to our requests and sends very detailed updates with every visit. I am so glad to have found someone I can trust with my fur baby!

We couldn’t be happier with the training our dog receives from Alliyah! She is knowledgeable, patient, and truly cares. She took the time to understand our dog’s needs and gave us the tools and confidence to continue the training at home. We’ve seen a huge improvement in our dog’s behavior, and training sessions are always positive and enjoyable. We highly recommend Alliyah to anyone looking for a dedicated and talented dog trainer!
