WALKING

We are the best upper west side dog walkers that you can find! 


At Harlem’s Happy Hounds, we offer competitive dog walking rates for private and semi private walks with our small, thoroughly trained team of professional handlers. 


We’ll pick up your dog from your apartment and take them out to enjoy some fresh air, have some fun, and get some relief. As Manhattan dog walkers, we have special techniques to ensure that your dog is always safe and comfortable. 


We are proud to say that we never pack walk, never leave dogs unattended, and are always highly aware of our surroundings, to ensure your pet is always the top priority.


Private walks are solo – just your pal and a professional handler. 


Semi private walks include a small group of up to three dogs per handler.


Semi private walks are great for socialization, while private walks are best for dogs who prefer to be alone. 


We are always concerned with safety and we carefully match dogs on the basis of size and temperament. 


As per your preference, we will walk your dog in the park, on the sidewalk, or even let she/he get some energy out in the dog run. 


We have male and female dog walkers, who we can assign based on your preference since some dogs are more comfortable with particular people.


Your dog and his/her walker will get to know each other well since we avoid changing particular dog’s walkers as much as possible. 


We’re happy to give treats to your dog after every walk, in addition to feeding and watering per your directions.


We will write notes to let you know how the walk went, and will send photo updates upon request. 


Your best friend will have a blast, and you’ll feel at ease entrusting your dog to the best Manhattan dog walkers. 


Contact us for an appointment to learn more about our rates and to introduce us to your happy hound!

WALKS ARE IMPORTANT

  • Physical exercise: Walking helps dogs burn energy, maintain a healthy weight, and stay fit.
  • Mental stimulation: It provides opportunities for dogs to explore new environments, scents, and sights, keeping their minds sharp.
  • Socialization: Walking exposes dogs to other dogs, people, and various situations, helping them develop good behavior and confidence.
  • Behavioral benefits: Regular walks can reduce anxiety, boredom, and destructive behaviors.
  • Bonding: Walks offer a chance for dogs to spend quality time with their owners, strengthening the bond between them.
  • Bathroom breaks: Walks provide opportunities for dogs to relieve themselves outside, particularly for those who may not have access to a yard.
  • Natural nail trimming: as your dog walks on the sidewalks and grassy areas, it helps file their nails in a gradual and easy fashion, that keeps them from needing trimming from groomers/vets
