About Us

Get to know us…

We believe in the quiet, profound bond between humans and their pets. The way a wagging tail can turn a bad day around or a soft purr can bring instant comfort. Our love for animals isn’t just part of our business; it’s part of who we are.

WHY we do
WHAT we do

Paws in the Peach was born from a simple truth: leaving your pets behind is hard, especially when you love them like family.

Originally a sister company to Paws & Relax Atlanta, this journey began with a mission to ease that very stress for traveling pet parents. When AJ took the reins, he brought a love for Georgia and a whole lot of peachy charm, transforming the business into something distinctly local and deeply personal.

As lifelong animal lovers with nearly a decade in veterinary medicine, we knew firsthand how tough it was to find care that felt both trustworthy and tender. We’d relied on friends when they were available, crossed our fingers with casual sitters, and worried while on vacation.

Eventually, we stepped out of the clinic and into homes across the city, choosing this path not just as a business, but as a lifestyle rooted in care, connection, and community.

At Paws in the Peach, we aren’t just pet sitters. We are animal lovers who feel it’s important to show up for all animals, not just our own. By choosing Paws in the Peach, you’re choosing people who are inspired to care for your animals the way we’d want someone to for ours.

Why Choose Us?

We treat every animal in our care like family because that’s how we’d want ours to be treated too.

Let’s be real: trusting someone with your fur baby isn’t easy. You want someone who shows up on time, knows what they’re doing, and actually cares. That’s where we come in.

This isn’t a side hustle for us. It’s what we love, and we take it seriously. Our Peachy Standard of Care is all about keeping tails wagging, hearts full, and your mind at ease whether you’re across town or across the world.

  • Rooted in Real Experience

    From vet clinics to neighborhood walks, we’ve been caring for animals for over a decade. We know what signs to look for, how to keep pets calm and comfortable, and how to handle the caretaking curveballs.

  • Pet Care Providers You Can Trust

    Every sitter on our team is background-checked, trained, and chosen for their big heart and reliability. They experience pet care training that meets the Peach Standard so that you can ensure that your fur babes are getting the best care possible.

  • Atlanta Focused & Local

    We’re not a faceless app. We’re a small, local team you can text, call, or message anytime. We know the streets, the shortcuts, and the best spots to sniff around.

  • Consistency meets Reliability

    Your pets love their routine and so do we. From breakfast to bedtime, we keep everything on track so your pets feel right at home, even when you’re not.

  • More Than the Basics

    Sure, we’ll feed and walk ‘em. But we’re also here for the cuddles, the silly voices and the “who’s a good dog!” moments. I’m telling you - we’re animal people through and through.

  • We Notice the Little Things

    Limping? Skipped a meal? Acting a little off? We’ve got eyes like a hawk. With over ten years of animal care and veterinary experience, we notice it all and will check in with you to discuss what we’re seeing and are happy to take them to your veterinary office if it’s needed.

  • Peace of Mind, Always

    We believe in over communicating. You’ll get daily updates, photos, and notes that tell you how your pet’s doing, not just “all good” or other bare minimum updates. Our goal is to ensure you’re not missing out on anything when it comes to the care of your fur babe.

  • Caring for your Home, not just your Pets

    We’ll bring in the mail, rotate lights and blinds, water plants and basic home essentials. In a busy city like Atlanta, we find it important to ensure that everything is taken care of and that your house is secure.
