HAPPY PANTS

DOG WALKING, RUNNING, PET SITTING, PUPPY CARE

we know the challenges of owning pets in the city

Let’s face it, Manhattan can be hard at times on our beloved dogs. Dogs are meant to have a lot of space to run and play, and need tons of attention. Such treatment not only leads to a healthier dog, it also leads to a happier, better behaved dog.

Unless you live at the Mayor’s Mansion (BTW… Happy Pants is proud to have been selected to provide care for the Mayor’s Alliance for NYC Animals!) and have 11 acres to frolic, have an abundance of free time, or a designated staff of dog-loving athletes at your disposal, you probably need to figure a way to make sure that your dog gets the daily love and exercise it needs and deserves. (AKA puts on its Happy Pants!)

the natural highs a dog gets from being active and releasing energy

We offer several options for your dog to put on its Happy Pants.

our services

walking

We take your dog outside to relieve itself, get some exercise, and have an adventure in the world’s best playground — New York City. Carefully supervised and never pack-walked.

running

One of our athletes takes your dog for a great run along the water or in a park. Helps your dog stay fit and healthy.

pet sitting

A team member stays over in your home and makes sure that your dog has as good a time as you do while you are away.

PUPPY CARE

We come to your home and see that your puppy gets the love and care it needs to develop into a happy, well-adjusted dog. Outdoor and Indoor play.

NICE WORDS ABOUT US

David and the Happy Pants team are absolutely fantastic. They are wonderful with our dog Jack and we love the daily notes describing his walks. David is also extremely flexible and always able to schedule an extra walk – even on weekends and holidays. It’s so reassuring knowing that Jack is in such trusted hands. We couldn’t recommend Happy Pants more highly!
LAUREN & TED

I found out about Happy Pants when I was researching puppy care options when we got Brady, our yellow lab, last fall. I met David for coffee and was blown away by his professionalism and love of dogs. From that day on – Brady has been IN LOVE with every Happy Panter that walks or runs him. I’ve met most of the team that has cared for Brady in the past year, and not only are they phenomenal with Brady, but are just great people that I feel totally comfortable letting into our apartment. David and his team have been so flexible with last minute requests and most recently saved us by visiting Brady while I was in labor with our new baby, Jack. He was able to find a Happy Panter to come to our apartment at 8am on a Sunday – no questions asked. Happy Pants is a huge part of our daily lives – and I can’t say enough great things about David and his team. LAUREN H.

PUPPY CARE
