We'll set up a free intro visit at your home so we can meet your dog, learn their personality, go over your routine, and make sure everyone's comfortable.
That's it! We handle the rest. You'll get photo updates, daily report cards, and a very tired, very happy pup when you get home.
Your dog gets a walker who knows their name, their pace and their favorite hydrant. No packs, no rotating strangers, no rushed laps around the block. Just real attention and a photo of the fun when it's done.

Melissa
Founder & Lead Walker
When Melissa's dog Benji was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer, everything changed. The world got quieter. The walks got slower. And every single minute together became something she held onto with both hands.
Watching Benji fight β and beat it β Melissa felt something she couldn't unfeel: our pets pour every ounce of their short, beautiful lives into loving us. Unconditionally. Without hesitation. Without ever asking for anything in return.
Happy Tails was born from that experience. Melissa started this to give back β not just walks, but presence. Real, attentive, joyful presence β the kind your dog gives you every single day. Because they deserve nothing less.
βBenji taught me that love looks like showing up, tail wagging, every single day. That's exactly what I bring to every walk.ββ Melissa
Line lives in Rockaway Beach and is leading Happy Tails in New York. Same promise as back home: one dog at a time, a photo update every visit, and a walker who actually shows up. Se habla espaΓ±ol.
