The slatmills have NO MOTORS, utilize no electricity, are low-resistance and low impact, and move at the speed your dog designates. When they move, it moves. When they slow, it slows. When they stop, it stops. There is no weight limit or size minimum.

30 minutes is the ideal duration, according to veterinarians, to maintain cardiovascular activity, mental attention, and muscle growth without pushing your dog too hard and running the danger of fatigue-related injury. For this reason, we do not offer longer sessions.

If a dog is not physically or medically able to complete a full session, or if their condition prevents them from exercising, then sessions may be shorter. Our canine fitness coaches can discuss the possibility of shorter sessions based on your dogs individual needs and abilities after their first session.

Every dog is different. It is completely normal for dogs to be a little scared or nervous their first time, but with some encouragement from you and our fitness coaches, your dog will be a pro in no time! Each time your dog does a workout with us, their confidence in themselves and the equipment grows, leading to a more fun and stress-releasing session. We have no doubt that your dog's cardio day will be their favorite day of the week!

Always clear any physical activity with your veterinarian first. We can accommodate anywhere from 15 lbs – 250 lbs and have experience with a wide variety of mental and physical concerns; from scared, anxious, stubborn and reactive; to overweight, pre/post-surgery, or otherwise limited in one way or another.

Please let us know your dog’s needs and we’ll do our best to accommodate. We are also happy to work with your veterinarian to create a suitable fitness plan for your dog's specific needs.

Yes! We currently can accommodate 2 dogs at the same time, but groups are welcome! For larger groups, dogs will be ran 2 at a time. Please let your fitness coach know how many dogs will be attending your session so that the booking can be made for an appropriate amount of time.

The benefit of our mobile dog gym is that the runs are completely private 1:1 sessions. The only time we have multiple dogs running together is when they live together or are pre-approved neighbors/friends.

Take a potty break, get leashed up and ready to go! If you have a favorite harness you like to use, go ahead and put them in it for their session. Otherwise, we provide harnesses for safety and comfort during their run. Please make sure that any feedings are handled at least 2 hours before their session. Once we arrive, please bring your dog(s) out to the trailer or let us know if you’ll need help at the door, we are happy to accommodate! (If scheduling a time while you are not home, no need to worry about anything. Just please no feedings within 2 hours of scheduled appointment time).

We come directly to your door with our climate-controlled trailer, pup-powered treadmills (aka NON MOTORIZED slatmills), and an enthusiastic pup fitness coach. We will fit your dog into a padded & breathable harness (if they don't have their own) designed for comfort and better balance.

We will introduce your pup to the trailer and acclimate them to the treadmills at their pace. We focus on ensuring your pup not only feels secure and confident during their session, but also has fun! Their entire session will last about 30 minutes.

Note: most dogs will not make it past a walk their first few sessions. This is totally normal and what you should realistically expect! Running will come with time, practice, and trust in the equipment.

We offer weekly, bi-weekly, and on-demand scheduling. Most people schedule the same day and time once a week for consistency and find it beneficial both mentally and physically.

Some of our clients that have physical or environmental limitations that don't allow for other forms of exercise between appointments, prefer to increase to twice a week in order to keep their dog fulfilled. You are the one who knows your dog and their needs the best!

Of course! We encourage owners to join us for the first session or 2 until your dog is comfortable with us and their new fitness journey. After that, you're welcome to hang out and enjoy the fun, or continue with your day. Your pup will thank you either way.

No, that's part of what makes CCH so convenient! We know pet parents have busy lives, working hard to provide for their dogs. That's why we offer the option to run your dog while you're running errands, at work, or on vacation! We are also fully licensed and insured. We do encourage owners to be present for the initial visit to help get your dog comfortable on the treadmills. After that, you are welcome to catch some waves, run errands, or anything else you want.

Right now we are providing services to dogs in Kaneohe, Kailua, Waimanalo, Hawaii Kai, Honolulu, Ewa Beach, and Kapolei. We hope to be expanding our services to accommodate the whole island soon! If you are unsure if you are in our service area, just send us a message!

Coming from a veterinary medicine background, we understand the importance of proper cleaning and sanitizing protocols. ALL equipment is sanitized after every use to ensure optimal safety for all our pawsome guests.

Yes! Dogs that struggle in typical environments are WHY we exist! We work WITH you and your dog to come up with a plan to make their experience as positive and comfortable as possible.

Dogs may be muzzled at the beginning of a visit if needed, though we prefer muzzles be removed during slatmill work whenever it is safe to do so. We believe gym time is their time — a space where they can be themselves without limitations or unnecessary rules.
