Employee Appreciation Puppy Yoga — we come to your office
One 75-minute visit. Zero work for you. We roll into your Houston office with vetted puppies, mats, a certified instructor, and handlers — your team gets the best hour of their work month, and you get the credit. From $900, covering up to 20 team members. Proper invoice for easy expensing. Custom quote within one business day.
Appreciation that doesn't feel like an HR checkbox
Your team can tell the difference between appreciation and an obligation. A pizza lunch where everyone eats at their desk is an obligation. An email that says "great quarter, everyone" is an obligation with a read receipt.
Thirty seconds after the first puppy hits the floor of your conference room, nobody is checking Slack. People who haven't spoken outside of standups are laughing on the floor together. The team group chat fills with photos. For weeks afterward, "remember the puppy day" is the shorthand for the best day of the quarter — and you're the person who made it happen.
It's also the lowest-lift event you'll ever organize: you book a conference room and forward us the parking instructions. We do everything else, including disappearing without a trace before the 2 PM meeting.
Occasions Houston teams book us for
Employee Appreciation Week
The first week of March books out fast — this is the marquee moment to do something the team actually remembers. One session covers up to 20; we stack sessions for bigger offices.
Milestones & goal celebrations
Shipped the product, closed the quarter, survived the audit. Mark it with something better than a cake in the break room.
Onboarding cohorts
New-hire classes bond faster on yoga mats with puppies than in any icebreaker. The fastest way to make a new cohort feel like a team.
Nurse & teacher appreciation
Hospital units and school faculties are some of our favorite bookings — the people who care for everyone else, finally getting cared for. Admin can split sessions across shifts.

Employee appreciation FAQ
How is this different from your corporate wellness page?
Our corporate page covers recurring wellness programming — quarterly series, Wellness Wednesdays, HR-planned initiatives. This page is the simpler thing: one 75-minute visit to say thank you to your team. No program design, no recurring commitment, no committee. You pick a date, we show up, your team loves you for it. If you ARE thinking bigger, see our corporate & team building page.
What does the office need to provide?
A patch of floor — a conference room with the table pushed aside, a break area, a lobby after hours, or a covered patio. Roughly 1 mat per person plus walking room. We bring literally everything else: mats, puppies, handlers, instructor, cleanup. Most offices are back to normal 20 minutes after we finish.
How many employees does the base price cover?
The $900 base covers up to 20 team members. Bigger team? We run back-to-back sessions so everyone gets real puppy time instead of a crowded room — tell us your headcount and we'll quote it.
Do employees actually do yoga, or is it really about the puppies?
Both, and nobody has to choose. The flow is gentle and office-clothes-friendly — plenty of people skip poses entirely and just sit with a puppy. Participation is whatever each person wants it to be, which is exactly why it works for mixed teams.
Can we expense this? How does billing work?
Yes — we provide a proper invoice and receipts, and most clients file it under team morale, appreciation-week budget, or employee engagement. A 50% deposit confirms the date; the balance is due 7 days before.
What occasions do teams book this for?
Employee Appreciation Week (first Friday of March — book early), quarterly goal celebrations, post-crunch decompression, onboarding cohort welcomes, admin professionals day, and nurse and teacher appreciation weeks. Also: 'the team has had a brutal quarter and deserves something good,' which is our most common booking reason.
How does pricing work?
Appreciation events start at $900 — covering up to 20 people at your office or chosen venue — and are custom-quoted from there based on headcount and location. Written quote with invoice within 24 hours.
