Mutts and Mocktails
A pet-friendly social hour that brings the whole building together.
The Experience
We set up a relaxed lounge on the lawn or lobby plaza with a mocktail station, water bowls, treats, and a few dog-friendly touches in partnership with a local shelter. Tenants stop by on their way out of the office, stay longer than expected, and leave with new neighbours.
Why It Works
- Pets are a natural icebreaker across companies and floors.
- Mocktails keep the event inclusive and workplace-appropriate.
- The after-work timing catches tenants before they head home.
Additional Inspiration
- Invite a local shelter to bring adoptable dogs and a donation bin, adding a feel-good layer to the social hour.
- Set up a pet portrait corner with a phone-friendly backdrop so tenants leave with a shareable photo of their pup.
- Give the event a seasonal spin — a spring 'puppy promenade,' a summer 'frosty paws' frozen-treat bar, or a fall costume parade.
