The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Manhattan

Upper West Side

The Upper West side is one of Manhattan’s prime residential areas. Fur-tunately, it is also home to several dog parks. The iconic Central Park is perfect for a stroll with your leashed pooch. But if he’s itching to run, take advantage of the off-leash hours. In 23 areas of the park, dogs can ditch the leash before 9:00 am and after 9:00 pm. Riverside Park overlooks the Hudson River and has three off-leash areas. Choose between the West 72nd, West 87th and West 105th dog runs. Bull Moose Dog Run is also in the area. Situated inside the Theodore Roosevelt Park, this off leash area is right next to the Natural History Museum.

East Village

After walking the streets of the East Village with your four legged friend, stop off at the Tompkins Square Dog Run. This off-leash area was NYC’s first dog park and provides ample space for your pooch to get some exercise. A gated small dog area is a pawsome place for little pups to mingle. During the summer months, the pools in this park are a perfect way for your dog to beat the city heat. Be sure to visit Unleashed Spa. With both self-service and full service grooming options, this dog spa caters to all schedules. They also have a pickup and delivery service. After your pup gets pretty, let her choose a new toy from the retail shop.
