FOR ADVENTUROUS DOGS 🥾🌲
ATL Trail Adventures
A 90 minute guided outdoor adventure for dogs who need more than an ordinary walk. I’ll pick up your pup and explore dog-friendly Atlanta favorites like Morningside Nature Preserve, Zonolite, Medlock Park, Lullwater Preserve, and more. With over a decade exploring these trails with my own dogs, I know the quieter times, hidden creek access points, and peaceful spots that make for a calmer, more private and enriching experience.$115 • *Limited availability

Vince Foster
FOUNDER / OWNER
Hi, my name’s Vince, and I’ve lived in Atlanta for over 10 years. Professional acting work originally brought me here from LA, but growing up in North Carolina, the South has always been home.I’m 100% solar powered and thrive being outdoors walking, hiking, and adventuring with dogs. Nearly anywhere you can think of in Metro Atlanta, I’ve probably walked it with a pup. I absolutely love everything about dogs and have two Belgian Malinois, Turbo and Thomas, who keep my life filled with excitement and laughter.I also have a deep affinity for cats. I’m endlessly fascinated by their playfulness, independence, curiosity, and their ability to comfort and calm.Want to get to know me a little better? You’ll find Turbo and Thomas’s Instagram below, where you can see the adventuring and playfulness that inspired a lot of Porch Paws. You can also find my personal Instagram for a closer look at who I am outside of pet care.

A richer outdoor life.
Built for curious, active dogs.
ATL Trail Adventures are for dogs who thrive on exploration - discovering new paths, navigating natural terrain, and engaging their body and mind in meaningful ways. From shaded forest trails and creeks to peaceful nature preserves, these outings give dogs space to sniff, explore, climb, splash, and engage their instincts far beyond an ordinary neighborhood walk.Each adventure is a guided experience, tailored to your dog’s energy, comfort, and confidence level.After more than a decade exploring these trails with my own dogs, I’ve learned which environments work best for different personalities, energy levels, and comfort zones. You get peace of mind knowing your dog is in capable hands, having the kind of day that leaves them fulfilled, content, and ready to rest.
