Dog Walking & Hiking in Scarsdale, NY
Adventure Pack provides professional dog hiking and walking services throughout Scarsdale, NY. We offer small-group trail hikes and personalized 1:1 walks designed to give your dog real exercise, enrichment, and socialization — not just a loop around the block. Every outing includes safe home pickup and drop-off, experienced handlers, and photo updates so you always know your pup is having the time of their life.
Why Scarsdale Dog Owners Choose Adventure Pack
Scarsdale is where Adventure Pack began. Founded here in 2020 by Dany Torres, we know this community inside and out — the quiet residential streets off Popham Road, the wooded trails just minutes from the village, and the families who want more for their dogs than a quick leash walk.
Scarsdale dog owners tend to have active, social dogs — Goldens, Labs, Doodles, Shepherds — breeds that need real physical and mental stimulation. A 15-minute walk around Chase Park doesn't cut it for a two-year-old Goldendoodle with energy to burn. That's where our trail hikes come in.
Our team picks up your dog from your Scarsdale home, drives to one of our curated local trail locations, and leads a 60-to-90-minute off-trail adventure with a small, carefully matched pack of 4 to 6 dogs. Nearly all of this time your dog will spend out in nature and not in the car. Your dog comes home tired, happy, and calmer — and you get photos and videos of the whole thing.
Our Scarsdale Dog Services
Trail Hikes (Group Adventures)
Our signature service. Your dog joins a small pack of compatible dogs for a guided hike through Westchester's best trails. Hikes run 60 to 90 minutes, and every dog is evaluated for pack compatibility before their first outing.
- Pack size: 4-6 dogs, sometimes up to 8-10 depending on compatibility and terrain
- Duration: 60-90 minutes on curated trails
- Includes: Home pickup and drop-off, photo/video updates, basic cleaning and towel dry
- Pricing: $60/hike (1x/week) or $50/hike (2+ times/week — save 15%)
Off-leash hiking is available for dogs who pass our recall and behavior evaluation. Many Scarsdale dogs earn off-leash freedom within their first few weeks.
1:1 Dog Walks (Personalized Attention)
For dogs who prefer solo outings — or puppies, seniors, and shy dogs who benefit from undivided attention — we offer private walks through Scarsdale's neighborhoods and green spaces.
- 30-minute walk: $45/walk (or $40 with 3+ walks/week)
- 60-minute walk: $70/walk (or $63 with 3+ walks/week)
- 90-minute walk: $90/walk (or $80 with 3+ walks/week)
Every walk includes the same home pickup, drop-off, and photo updates you get with our group hikes.
Trails and Parks We Use Near Scarsdale
We rotate through a variety of trail locations so your dog never gets bored with the same route. Some of our favorite spots accessible from Scarsdale include:
- Saxon Woods Park & Golf Course — One of Westchester's most popular parks with wooded trails and open space, just minutes from central Scarsdale
- Weinberg Nature Center — A 10-acre preserve right in Scarsdale with walking paths through wetlands and woodlands, ideal for dogs who love to sniff and explore
- Bronx River Pathway — A scenic multi-use trail following the Bronx River, perfect for longer walks with water access for dogs who love to splash
- Colonial Greenway — Connecting parks and green spaces across Scarsdale with varied terrain that keeps hikes interesting
Trail selection depends on weather, group size, and the energy levels of the dogs in that day's pack. Our handlers know these trails year-round — the muddy spots in spring, the shaded routes in summer, the leaf-covered paths in fall, and the safest footing in winter.
