Great service and scheduling platform is really easy to use. Kai is extremely reliable and I know I can trust any of her staff with my dog.

Kai and the Happy Paws team are without question the best dog walkers in the area. I’ve been working with them for several years now and they’ve shown nothing but love and compassion for my pup the whole time. They’re flexible, easy to work with, and the self-scheduling tools are super convenient. Their communication is also top notch - I love the post-walk report cards with pictures! I’ve used several dog walking companies in the area over the years and I only wish I’d found Happy Paws sooner; they are incomparable!

The Happy Paws family is absolutely wonderful! We stumbled upon them about two years ago, and boy, are we glad we did! Kai and her team aren't just dog walkers; they're dog whisperers that provide enrichment, structure, and fun on every walk.Our pup, who's a bit on the anxious side, has truly blossomed with Happy Paws. His walkers give him the attention he needs during walks while allowing him to explore and socialize with his pals. Scheduling is a breeze and the daily photo updates are a bonus--we love nothing more than seeing his happy face on our phones!When life gets crazy, the Happy Paws team is there to save the day. From last-minute walks to weekend boarding, we've always felt like they've got our backs. Not only are they so loving and caring for our pup, their reliability is rock-solid and they treat our home with tremendous respect.What really sets them apart is how invested Kai is in providing training for her team so that they are well-prepared to provide the right level of care for our beloved fur baby and to manage any expected or unexpected behavioral issues. It's evident that the whole team genuinely cares, and that means the world to us!In addition to the walks, the boarding service is a game-changer. Our pup isn't just kept in a kennel and watched over by a stranger while we're away, like most typical boarding services. He has enriching days that combine structure, fun, and monitored socialization with team members that he knows and loves. He always comes back from his stays with a wagging tail and we get regular updates throughout the overnight visits to keep our minds at ease, so everyone is happy :-)! The whole experience has always been so seamless and convenient.For us, Happy Paws isn't just a service; it's a family that loves dogs as much as we do and makes it a priority to provide the best care for pups and their humans!! If you want your pup to have enriching walks and stress-free boarding, look no further. Happy Paws, you guys rock! ?

We’ve been working with Happy Paws for about 6 months now. We originally reached out due to our rescue dogs timid behavior. Kai met with us and suggested we begin pack walks. Archie walks with the pack twice a week, and he has improved tremendously on walks. Where he use to not be able to walk around the block, we can now do 2.5 miles with only a few moments of unrest. Recently, Kai has taken the time to help us training Archie through tips and tricks that have already made a huge difference. We are very thankful to be clients at Happy Paws!

We wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for the exceptional care and dedication the Happy Paws team has shown towards our beloved furry family member.We were experiencing some behavioral challenges with our energetic 3 yr old dog. Our dog trainer had referred Happy Paws to us given their structured walking services. From the very first day we entrusted our dog's well-being to you, we knew we had made the right choice. The Happy Paws team’s professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals have been evident in every interaction. It brings us great peace of mind to know that our dog is in such capable hands when we are at work.Their commitment to providing regular exercise, mental stimulation, and socialization for our dog has made a tremendous difference in his overall well-being. We have noticed a significant improvement in his behavior, happiness, and overall health since you started walking him.We also appreciate the detailed updates after each walk allowing us to feel connected to our dog even when we are apart.It is heartwarming to witness the bond that has formed between our two consistent walkers and our furry friend.Big thank you to th Happy Paws team and Kia!

We love Happy Paws! Kai is such a wonderful person and super knowledgeable & professional. It’s been so wonderful to trust someone to care for my fur baby. Matt was our walker and we love him. He is professional, kind, and trustworthy. I have a Great Dane and he always took great care of her on walks, and sent photos with updates after the walk with buddies. We are moving and I am truly sad we can’t continue to be clients. Thank you Kai and Matt! Daisy and I will miss you. So grateful for you.

100% recommended, I could not be happier with Happy Paws Boston! I randomly found them through Google and I have used their walking services for nearly a year and it has been great. Kai and Matt were fantastic and my dog, Bear, was always happy to see Matt!

Kai and her team at Happy Paws are absolutely amazing! They truly understand how important my dogs are to me and everything from their easy booking and payment process, seamless communication, thoughtful updates and detailed reports put me at ease when I have to be away from my fur babies. I have two anxious senior pups adopted as seniors and Kai, Ashlie and the whole team are true professionals when it comes to handling my (sometimes difficult) 12 year old babies. I can see how happy my dogs are to see Ashlie every time she picks them up, and her pictures and sweet updates let me know they are happy and relaxed with her.I cannot say enough good things about Happy Paws — don’t hesitate to make your pups and your life easier with their reliable care, it’s worth every penny! ❤️

Happy Paws has been amazing with my dog, Duck. He loves going on his buddy walks and I always feel like he is in the best hands when with someone from Happy Paws. Kai is reliable and quick to respond when I need something. Duck just adores Kai and his dog walker, Joey.The best days are the days he gets to go on a walk with Happy Paws!! Best dog waking company in Southie!

Happy Paws is by far the best dog walking service in Southie! Kai and Matt were great from the very beginning. We always had Matt as our dog walker whereas a lot of other services will have different people walking your dog constantly. Matt was always on time and reliable and our dog clearly loved him and all of the other dogs in the pack. We also boarded our dog with Matt a few times and had a great experience. We would highly recommend Happy Paws - they are truly the best!!

Happy Paws is an amazing resource for busy dog owners who want to ensure their pup is safe and under a trained environment. I started using them back in 2021 when I got a puppy and have continued consistently over the years. I now attribute my dog's leash walking and socialization skills to Happy Paws, they've even provided leash suggestions and can help with suggesting additional training resources. All walks are extremely structured and well controlled. No crazy dog parks. All walkers are well trained on how to handle dogs and how to properly walk on leash. Pack walks are very important to your dogs growth, personality, socialization, and happiness. I always know my dog is well cared for, as they treat the dogs like their own. In addition, the online portal makes it very easy to book/change appts. You also get an email after the walk with a picture, which are very entertaining. Happy Paws is amazing! Have recommended them to so many people

I can't recommend Happy Paws more! Kai and Matt are amazing and treat our dogs like their family. We have used them for both walks and pet sitting. Our dogs look forward to their pack walks. Happy Paws is reasonably priced, trustworthy, and simply the best.

Our experience with Happy Paws has been amazing! Kai (the owner) is incredibly responsive, great at communicating and goes out of her way to accommodate. We primarily worked with Emily as our walker and sleepover host and I can’t rave about her enough. She was reliable & honestly became a second mom to our dog. She always gave us updates, provided guidance, and cared for dog tremendously (and he’s not the easiest dog)! Thank you for everything!
