Esther was amazing! She was kind, punctual, and so gentle with Benjamin Franklin. She followed all instructions perfectly and made me feel completely at ease, especially since this was a last-minute booking. Benji was happy, calm, and well cared for when I got back, which says everything. I really appreciated her communication and care, she s someone you can truly trust with your fur baby. I d absolutely book with Esther again and highly recommend her!

The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Irvington

Upper Montclair

Irvington doesn't have any off-leash dog parks, so when your dog needs to burn some energy and stretch her legs, head to Brookdale Dog Park. The park is located just 9 miles away from Irvington in Upper Montclair. Plenty of space and separate areas for different-sized doggos are the main advantages of this park. There is also water available so you don't have to bring any. Poop baggies are provided, and there is agility equipment that will entertain your pup all day long. The park has also a lot of trees, which provide mutts-needed shade on those hot summer days.

Lower Manhattan

Sirius Dog Run is another place that can offer a nice time for your fur baby. It is located in Lower Manhattan, around 15 miles away from Irvington. The park was named in honor of one of the rescue Labs that gave his life during the search and rescue operations after the 9-11 attack. The park is not very big, but it is properly fenced and has a little pool where doggies can cool off in the heat of the day. There are plenty of trees and benches, but make sure you bring your own poop baggies. The ground is paved, so no muddy paws!Keep reading
