In the News!

Barbie hangs out with Ashly Kirklen and Stephen Shiveley. 
Wag Atlanta Pet Resort and Dog Day Care was invited to appear on the WGXA Morning News in Macon, GA.  Host Rick Devens featured us for our convenience to Macon travelers who need a safe place for their pet while they are away.

Barbie waits patiently for her 15 minutes of fame.
Rick had fun with special guest Barbie, who is one of 6 rescues adopted by one of our owners and a favorite on set.  Barbie along with Wag Atlanta team members, Jodi and Logan, explained the services we provide and what sets us apart.  Topping this list is Wag Atlanta’s hours, open 24/7.  We also boast a relationship with Park’N Ticket, an airport parking and shuttle service, who provides Wag Atlanta guests with free parking during their pet’s stay. 

The luxury suites were the main topic, recently added and made popular by their over the top furnishings and style.  The suites include flat screen tv’s, plush beds, sofas, and fun décor.  Each room has a different theme and your pet is sure to find the perfect one for their personality.  This village of suites surround 2 large indoor play yards and are steps away from the huge outdoor play yard, featuring toys, equipment, and pool. 

Jodi and Logan also discussed the photo shoots that happen every day at Wag Atlanta.  Team members capture professional quality candid shots of pets as they play.  Guests can download these images from their individual Facebook albums and stay updated with their pets and have a beautiful keepsake.


Rick Devens completed this segment and helped Barbie pose with Ashley Kirklen and Stephen Shiveley  on the news set for some fun.  You may find Barbie and her friends playing at Wag Atlanta at 3872 College St. in College Park, GA.

Welcome to THE VILLAGE at Wag Atlanta!


Wag Atlanta is bursting with excitement about our newly opened VILLAGE at WAG ATLANTA, which in addition to our standard dens, features 20 luxury dog suites surrounding Central Bark, our indoor play yards.  This little city comes complete with a ring of brightly colored houses, each one with it’s own personality. 

With themes ranging from the nautical S.S. Brady to the high society The Diva, every pup will find a premium suite that fits their style and individuality.  We wanted our luxury suites to feel more like your dog’s home so we filled them with beds, couches, carpets, plush blankets, and pillows, and do feel like a home and certainly not a dog kennel.

We love to give tours!   Creating this village has been a true labor of love and we are just beaming when we get to show it off and see everyone’s reaction.  Our guest’s reactions reflect this feeling with typical comments stating, “I can’t believe this is for dogs, can I stay here?” 

Wag Atlanta is the perfect choice for travelers using Atlanta Hartsfield Airport.  We are conveniently located just blocks away from the airport and offer free airport parking with our sister company, Park’N Ticket.  We are open 24/7 with team members always watching over your pet and on site for those late night trips.

Oliver and Lilli


Wag Atlanta has been the backdrop for an unlikely love story.  Two doggy day care campers met in what can only be described as kismet. 

Oliver loved being the young prince of the palace.  He received lots of attention from our team members, because he did not get along with ANY other dogs.   We felt bad that he didn’t get to participate in any play groups, but it could not be helped.

Lilli loved hanging out, but needed a lot of encouragement to run and play.  Her eyes often looked sad and lonely, like something was missing.

But that soon changed. 

They first met through a fence, and we were all astounded that Oliver did not try to intimidate Lilli, but instead wooed her with a tilt of his head and a blink of those big puppy eyes.   After being completely convinced of their match, we let them hang out ‘in person’. They sniffed and they frolicked and they played.  It was love.

Little Oliver is head over paws for the more mature and three-times-his-size lady.  He even whines for her while watching their video! We love seeing them come in each day excited to see each other, pining after one another until they get to play. Both look so happy and that brings us SO much joy!

Share the Love

Do you have a friend searching for pet boarding or doggy day care?  Well, you’re BOTH in luck!  ReFUR them to us and you will receive 1 FREE dayof boarding for each new customer you send our way.   That’s 1 FREE day for each reFURral!  Your friend will receive 50% their pet’s entire first stay.

Simply have your friend tell us you reFURred them, when they check in their pet.  You will be notified of your free day and can use it whenever you like.  Your free day is good for 1 pet’s stay for 1 day of pet boarding or doggy day care at the Wag Atlanta.

Thank you for sharing the love!

Trained to Treat

Wag Atlanta is committed to excellent care for your pets.  Our team members are cat and dog CPR certified and first aid trained, thanks to master instructor Jennifer Perry of PetTech.  

Jennifer taught our team essential skills to keep their own pets and the pets at Wag Atlanta kennel safe.  The course covered lifesaving CPR, handling a choking situation, and other first aid and care. They learned techniques to handle a variety of emergency situations, as well as treating injuries.  The team practiced “saving” many stuffed animals during their course and now feels prepared to step in during a real emergency. 

Jennifer was truly informative and full of helpful tips, she is a fantastic teacher.  We are so grateful for her passion and dedication, and giving our team the skills and the confidence they need to give your pets the highest level of care, while they are boarding or in Dog Day Care at Wag Atlanta.
