The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Riverside

North Riverside

North Riverside is just minutes from Squantum Point and Squantum Woods State Park. These well-loved areas are frequented by locals with their dogs throughout the year. You will want to bring a harness with you if you plan on walking with your pup in the area, as the terrain can get tricky in places, especially for smaller or older dogs. But nonetheless, your dog will love taking a day trip or a weekend adventure with you through North Riverside to explore all that the nature has to offer here. If you are just looking for a good place to go for a stroll with your furry friend after a long day at the office, you will find the streets here quite scenic with the view of the water in the distance.

West Riverside

West Riverside is right against the Providence River. This makes the area popular with marine-minded folks who love to sail and fish throughout the year. You will find many boats flooding the marinas here regardless of the time of year. You will also enjoy visiting Sabin Point Park for a relaxing day throwing a frisbee or tennis ball around with your dog. You will need to bring a leash and plenty of water. You will also want to pack your dog’s favorite toys and a towel in case you both get excited when you see the sparkling water on the shoreline.

Central Riverside

Central Riverside is a unique part of town with its own sense of charm and flair. Residents with dogs report a peaceful morning or evening walk. There are many dog families here, so make sure your dog is prepared to make friends during your adventure. You will also want to keep your dog leashed and close to you during peak walking times, in case Fido and Sparky don’t see eye to eye one day. But the key to sharing the sidewalk peacefully and successfully can be found with the right mix of space, distraction, praise, and, of course, treats! Your pup will look forward to the leash coming out after just a few days in Central Riverside.

East Riverside

East Riverside is home to its own Willet Pond. This pond is surrounded by grass and walking paths where you and your dog are welcome to explore as much as you like throughout the year. Leashes are required, but with so much to smell and see, your pup will hardly notice! If your dog pulls at the sight of a bird or squirrel, you may prefer to bring a harness with you during your visit. You will need your waste bags for sure. You make also want to keep a few clean towels in your car for the drive back and one or two with you at the pond to dry off your rascal.

South Riverside

South Riverside is home to Richmond Point, a water inlet that is full of happy dogs and happier humans. You will love visiting this waterside neighborhood for a day or looking for your next home! You will find houses for every family and budget in the area, in addition to apartments if you need something a little smaller. If you love the water, South Riverside is the pawfect place for your furry family to put down roots and spend some serious time. Just make sure you keep your pup on-leash as you make your way around the streets, as the traffic can pick up without warning.
