Happy Trails Ponies and Petting Zoo

Had Happy Trails for my daughters first birthday, cannot recommend enough! The kids were so excited and the handlers of the animals and pony were wonderful. The animals were so friendly - a chicken even rode on the donkeys back the entire time. Book them, I certainly will again!

We hired Happy Trails for a birthday party- the birthday boy (5 years old) had so much fun and all the kids were excited to see and pet the animals. It was a hit! The handlers, Leslie and Paul were great- kind and patient with the kids!

This was the perfect addition to our party. The kids were in awe at being able to touch and play with the animals. I would HIGHLY recommend!!!

My kids and their friends enjoyed every minute of our Petting Zoo Birthday Party. The staff is amazingly friendly with kids. Would definitely recommend to everyone.

Fantastic experience

Booked petting zoo and a pony for daughters 2nd birthday. You don't need a huge yard or budget to throw an epic childrens party with them. The guys who came were super nice all day. They were on time, took care of everything and helped the kids who were shy around the animals. Highly highly recommend.

The kids all had a great time. They were here on time and were very patient and kind to the kids, who excitedly watch them set up. They answered all of the kids questions and all of the animals were friendly and well taken care of. The point was lovely as well. They also did a great job cleaning up.

Hired them for my daughters 2nd birthday. They arrived on time, the animals were adorable. Everyone loved it!

The animals were great, kids had so much fun! The staff was very nice and polite.

I’m absolutely enjoyed every minute of the pony rides. The owner and her assistant were so nice and the ponies were well taken care of. They even came out while it was raining. I would definitely recommend this company.

The handlers were extremely friendly...the kids at my grandaughers party had a great time...the unicorn ponies. Looked amazing

It was great

We had a pony and petting zoo for my son’s first birthday party and we absolutely love it! All of the guests had such a great time with the animals. This company is very professional and would recommend to anyone who is interested!

My entire party loved the zoo and pony rides, even the adults. Everyone was very nice and very knowledgeable about all the animals.

This past Sunday, my bday boy (7 year old son) and our guests loved the petting zoo and pony rides. It was great to have a pony and horse to accommodate the various ages in our party (2-10)
I highly recommend Happy Trails.

Happy Trails sent Steve & Cat to handle my son's birthday. They arrived a half hour early to setup and were incredibly courteous & helpful. Took time with my son even while they were in the middle of setup to let him see the animals. They were super friendly to each and every child at the party. Everyone had nothing but good things to say about the overall event. The animals were all well behaved even with some over excited kids (my son kept chasing the ducks...). Would absolutely hire them again

I had a party at my home yesterday in Old Bridge and just wanted to write to thank you for the wonderful experience. The workers were amazing! They were patient, helpful and kind!!! Everyone had a great time and commented how clean and calm the animals were and how nice the workers were. I was nervous because we had never done anything like this at our house before but it was an organized and stress free process. We hope to see you all again in the future!

Thank you,
Amanda

I wanted to thank you for providing our camp and our children with such a wonderful Pony Ride experience. It was a great day and one that our campers will not be so quick to forget. Not only were the animals the perfect size for our small campers, but they were well groomed and very approachable. Your staff was also exceptional with our campers. Both staff members were interactive with the children, teaching them about the parts of the horse and their names, showing them how to feed them and were very fun while the kids were riding them. The kids loved that they were encouraged to say “Giddy Up, Poki!” Given how hot it was that day, your staff was always smiling and friendly. Our kids had so much fun and were talking about it for days.

We appreciate your business and we will keep Happy Trails in mind for all our Pony Ride needs. Thank you again.

WORTH EVERY PENNY! I surprised my 7 yr. old daughter with hiring Happy Trails for pony rides at her western themed birthday party... and the kids were jumping up and down with excitement before they even unloaded the animal from the trailer. Each of the kids had several turns and I couldn't have been happier with the service. Steve was friendly and easily engaged them in conversation as they rode around. He was also careful and competent as he lead the interaction between pony and child. Then, when the pony proved to be experiencing a little bit of a belly-ache, out of concern for the animal I encouraged Steve to leave shortly before the appointed hour was fully over... so he could make sure the pony was okay. I was already very pleased with the service and he was extremely apologetic and made sure to thoroughly clean up before he left. The following day I received a phonecall from the owner Michelle offering to arrange another free ride for my daughter at our earliest convenience to compensate for the pony feeling poorly... she was so sweet about the whole thing and of course I took her up on the offer... making an already fun and memorable experience even moreso for my daughter and whole family!

We wanted to thank you for all your support and contributions to our most recent event; the Midsummer Night's Faire. As we continue to develop family friendly events, we look forward to future opportunities to work with you and your group. Your pony rides added a great element to our event. Thanks again for all of your support.

I hired Happy Trails for my daughter's birthday party last week. I have 4 children, but this was by far the best party yet. They came out with a pony and a petting zoo and after 2 hours, the kids still wanted more. They arrived early and were very professional. They answered all of the kids questions about the animals (over and over again) and seemed like they had fun playing with the kids too. They made sure all the kids were safe and even kept one hand on the little ones while walking them on the pony. When they were done, they cleaned up and left the yard spotless. I have recommended Happy Trails to quite a few friends already. It's an experience we will never forget. Thank You!!!
