“Dog walking is no job; it's a passion!”
Hi there! I have been walking dogs in Hoboken, NJ for over 2 years now, which I absolutely love! I have had an endearing love for dogs since 2001 when my parents finally gave into the many pleas of my two younger brothers and I to get us a dog. We were introduced to Tiki, a magnificent Black Labrador, who became the sister we never had.

I doubt you're ever gonna find anyone who loves dogs more than I do. I've lived with dogs my whole life, walked at least 100 of my friends dogs, read dog books, volunteered at the Humane society in Hawaii, donate to ASPCA monthly, and just love them like crazy. I'm used to walking between 35.000 to 45.000 steps a day and can't wait to start walking your little one.

Hi there. My name is Dan. I go to school at GW, and I'm looking to walk some local pooches to help pay for school. I'm new to the world of professional pet care, but I'm no stranger to caring for dogs. I have a basset hound mix named Bon Bon back home (who I miss like crazy) that I've loved and cared for the past 8 years. I've also had experience sitting and walking dogs for neighbors and relatives. I look forward to getting out to meet some new pups and brighten their days.

Hello, my name is Gideon. I had two dogs when I was a boy, and I have always loved them. As an adult, I personally rescued a 6-month old Pit Bull Terrier who had been abandoned in the street, and she was the best dog ever! Training and raising her taught me a lot about how dogs behave, and how to walk them responsibly. Thank you for reading my bio, I look forward to meeting and walking your dogs!

Dog Walking in Cedar Grove
Commuters in Cedar Grove, NJ certainly appreciate it’s convenient location, but the town has much more to offer than simply being twenty miles from Manhattan. Clustered around a reservoir and close to the shore, Cedar Grove has plenty of nature for you and your pup to sniff out and explore. There are a couple of beautiful county parks in the area, and the West Essex Trail runs right through town! Cedar Grove also has a strong sense of community spirit -- it’s one of the few towns in New Jersey with a museum dedicated to preserving its heritage. There are two vets in town to take good care of your buddy, with 24-hour care available in nearby Fairfield.
There’s no dedicated dog park in Cedar Grove, but there are plenty of options for on-leash exercise! If the county parks don’t pique your pup’s interest, Cedar Grove Community Park has six acres of well-maintained green space ideal for a more sedate stroll with your four-legged friend. There aren’t any pooch-friendly restaurants in town, but don’t worry -- the town is well served by roads and highways, and you’ll find plenty of doggy dining and opportunities for off-leash adventures just a little fur-ther afield!

Make no bones about it, nature loving pups will love exploring the miles of trails winding through this vast county park, but keep them on a short leash if they’ve a tendency to tear off after squirrels and other wildlife! Despite the name, there’s not much of an incline on most of the trails in the Hilltop Reservation, so it’s suitable for all ages and fitness levels.
