Dog Walking in Murray Hill, NYC
Murray Hill is MixyPaws' home neighborhood. Our team operates out of Midtown East, right in the heart of the corridor that runs from Grand Central up to the 40s, and our walkers are on these blocks every single day. If you live or work near Lexington, Park, or Third Avenue between 30th and 42nd Street, you have access to the same team that professional Manhattan dog owners have relied on since 2009.
We offer private and semi-private dog walks, puppy visits, cat sitting, and overnight pet sitting, all backed by GPS tracking, real-time photo updates, and a responsive office team. Every walker is bonded, insured, and employee-based. No gig app contractors.
Dog Walking Services in Murray Hill
Private Walks
One-on-one walks for dogs that do best with undivided attention. Ideal for reactive dogs, puppies in training, seniors, or any dog whose owner wants a dedicated walker who knows their route, their building, and their dog's specific needs. Every private walk includes GPS tracking and a photo update from your walker.
Semi-Private Walks
Small-group walks for social dogs who enjoy company. Groups stay small, with a maximum of four dogs, so your dog gets real attention on every outing rather than a crowd shuffle around the block. Semi-private walks are available Monday through Sunday, including early morning and evening slots.
Puppy Visits
Puppies under one year need more than one walk a day. Our puppy visits include a potty break, feeding if needed, and a short play session spaced around your schedule so your dog is not home alone for more than a couple of hours at a stretch. Murray Hill's density makes consistent mid-day puppy care especially valuable in apartments with no outdoor space.
Why Murray Hill Dog Owners Choose MixyPaws
Murray Hill is a dense, transit-heavy neighborhood. That means busy sidewalks, elevator buildings, tight lobby spaces, and dogs navigating more foot traffic than most suburban dogs will see in a lifetime. Our walkers know this. They know which buildings have service entrances, which blocks see the most pedestrian congestion, and how to handle a reactive dog when a delivery truck pulls up without warning.
Our team is based in Midtown East, which means Murray Hill is closer to our operational center than anywhere else in our service area. Coverage logistics are simpler here, and our response time reflects that.

Our walkers are trained to read dog body language and manage urban-specific triggers like other dogs on retractable leashes, sudden loud noises, and high foot traffic. During your meet and greet, tell us about your dog's specific triggers so we can assign the right walker.

Yes. Every MixyPaws walker is bonded and insured. We carry general liability coverage and our walkers are employees, not independent contractors, which means they're covered under our business insurance on every walk.
