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 Orange

Downtown Orange (Downtown)

When searching for a place to walk your pooch, the Monte Irvin Orange Park is located on South Center Street and provides a paved walking path. You can stroll with Fido along the man-made lake, and then relax on a shaded bench with a bottle of water. The kids can play on the playground or basketball court, and your pooch can roll around in the grass. You will need to make sure Fido stays on his leash, or he may want to chase the geese and ducks. Also, be sure to bring your own doggie waste bags and enjoy a day at the park with Fido and the family.

Colgate Park

West Orange features a great area to walk Fido in Colgate Park. You can access the park from Franklin Avenue and Cherry Street, and there are wide open ball fields where you can throw a ball and Fido can play a game of fetch. If you are out with the kids, they will love hanging out at the playground. You can stroll around the perimeter of the park and enjoy a peaceful afternoon. A pup-friendly place for dinner is Jimmy Buff’s. You will love the Italian pizza bread and a variety of other dishes. You and Fido can relax on the patio and enjoy your meal.

Eagle Rock Reservation

Just four miles north of Orange, the whole family will enjoy a day at Eagle Rock Reservation in West Orange. There is a three-mile trail that meanders through the park where you and Fido can admire wildflowers and trees. Your pup will have a snifftastic time in the grassy areas, and you can even find a spot for a picnic along the way. You will want to keep your pooch on a leash. While hiking to the top of the hill, you will be rewarded with an amazing view of New York City, and Fido can run around and get rid of all his excess energy.

Watsessing Park

About two miles northeast of Orange, Watsessing Dog Park can be found in the town of Bloomfield. Your pooch will love to play off-leash in this large park where he can run around and socialize with his doggie friends. Pup parents can relax on one of the benches while their furry family members play, and the park even has a water fountain and separate spaces for large dogs and smaller pups. If you need dinner after playing at the park, stop by Bloomfield Steak and Seafood House for burgers, pasta, or a variety of other entrees. You can sit on the outdoor patio with your pooch, and the staff will even bring a water bowl for your pup.

Lower Roseville

On the eastern border of Newark, the Branch Brook Park is just seven minutes from Orange. This is America’s oldest county park and offers a great area to walk your pooch and get some exercise. There is a large lake where you can relax and your pooch can roll in the grass, and the kids can hang out at the playground or ball field. The cherry trees bloom in the spring and provide a beautiful view where you can take pictures with your pup. Keep your pup on a leash and bring your own doggie waste bags.
