“Dog walking is no job - it's a passion!”
Hi there! I have been walking dogs in Hoboken, NJ for 4 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.

Dog Walking in Far Rockaway
Far Rockaway is a neighborhood in the borough of Queens. This small community is part of what is commonly referred to as The Rockaways, or a series of neighborhoods on the Rockaway Peninsula. Due to its pawsome beach, Far Rockaway was once a thriving vacation destination for those in the surrounding boroughs. Today, the Beach Bungalows Historic District sits as a reminder of the community’s resort heyday.
O’Donahue Park is a green space adjacent to the beach on the east side of the neighborhood. Not only does it have a ball field, splash pad, skate park, and picnic facilities, it also has a large green space that’s perfect for walking your pup. Your canine companion can enjoy some fresh air and sunshine as she trots along the grassy field. Since this is a pup-ular community hang out, she’ll have plenty of opportunity to practice her socialization manners.
The Rockaway Beach Boardwalk runs parallel to the famed
Rockaway Beach. Although pups aren’t allowed to swim or frolic on the beach,
they are able to walk along the boardwalk and on the sand between October 1 and
May 1.
With beautiful ocean views, a pupperific boardwalk, and two veterinary clinics, it’s no wonder dogs love living in Far Rockaway!
