Day trips

Who is the day trip for?

This is the day trip. Looking for the shorter group walk? That's group walks.

For owners in Antwerp who have little time during the day but want their dog to move, sniff and socialise for a full day — without sitting in traffic themselves.

  • you work long days and your dog waits home alone
  • you want a full day in nature — not a short loop around the corner
  • your dog loves playing and moving with other dogs
  • you want home pickup without driving in traffic yourself

The day

What does your dog do on an OHH day?

A full day outside: pickup, nature, play and rest, then safe home. No overnight stay — same-day return.

  1. Home pickup

    We pick up your dog with our dog van — you don't have to drive.

  2. Off to nature

    The group heads to forests, fields or open countryside — not a lap around the block.

  3. Walking & adventure

    A day full of movement and stimulation in nature, with our team.

  4. Rest moments

    Between play sessions there's time to catch breath too.

  5. Social contact

    Your dog walks and plays with other social dogs in the group.

  6. Back home

    We bring your dog home safely — often tired, content and calmer.

Group & safety

Group, safety and calm

We match social dogs, keep the group small enough to read behaviour, and choose nature with space — so tension usually stays at signals, not fights.

  • Groups of max. 6–10 social dogs — full means full
  • Free intro and one trial day before regular days
  • Fixed, trained team with backup and dog first aid
  • Insured during outings
  • Routes in nature with room to sniff, play and rest

Price

What does the dog walking service cost?

One clear day price: pickup, the outing, drop-off, insurance and updates on Instagram — not an hour's walk.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

I'm looking for dog sitting in Antwerpen — can One Happy Hound help?

One Happy Hound is not classic home pet sitting in Antwerpen (no home visits or boarding). We offer group day trips with home pickup. Available in Flanders — routes in Antwerp, Kalmthout and Zandhoven. Live elsewhere in Flanders? Sign up — that's how we grow toward your city.

Where do you pick up in Antwerp?

Ophalen in alle districten van Antwerpen: centrum, Linkeroever, Berchem, Borgerhout, Deurne, Hoboken, Merksem, Wilrijk, Ekeren, Borsbeek, Berendrecht, Zandvliet en Lillo — plus directe rand zoals Edegem, Mortsel en Schoten. During the intro we check whether your street fits a pickup route. Transport is included in the day trip price.

Is this a short walk in the city?

No. This page is about the day trip: home pickup, a full day in nature with 6 to 10 social dogs, and drop-off. For a shorter guided group walk see our group walks page.

Don't the dogs fight in a group?

Dogs are social: most tension is resolved with signals, not a fight. We take social dogs in small, carefully matched groups.

What does the day trip cost?

€45 excl. VAT per day, including pickup and drop-off. No subscription: you plan regular days when it suits you.

How do I get started?

Free intro, then a trial day in the group (you pay afterwards). If it doesn't fit, we stop there with no further costs.

Are you a boarding kennel or dog sitter?

No — not boarding where your dog stays for days, and not an individual sitter at home. One Happy Hound runs day trips: pickup and drop-off, a day outdoors in a group. No overnight stays.
