We have been using Waterfront Walks for our little guy Teddy since moving to Jersey City in April 2016, and couldn't be happier with the service. The owner Lauren was incredibly helpful in getting us setup when we first started, and went out of her way to meet with us in person and answer all of our questions. We have found everyone to be incredibly friendly and accommodating, and have never had any issues. Our walker Alex takes great care of Teddy on his daily walks, and we always look forward to the entertaining notes and photos he sends each time. They use an online system called Time To Pet which makes scheduling and payment super easy. Overall, you won't find a better option for Dog Walking in the Jersey City area - highly recommend! read more

We have been using Waterfront Walks since we first got our Siberian husky puppy Reiley in July. Lauren always goes above and beyond to accommodate us weather it is a short notice walk, weekends or late at night, she makes sure our Reiley is taken care of! Our walker Fran is amazing. She always sends us a detailed description of how the walk went with adorable pictures! I am so happy to have found a dog walking service that we can always depend on! Thank you Lauren and Fran! read more

Waterfront Walks - Reiley enjoying her walk! - Dog Walkers Near Me

Lauren and her team are amazing! We've had a couple different walkers and each is equally caring and great. I really like how they treat your dog like family and not just a business. Plus they never walk your dogs in a pack! You'll get a detailed note and pictures after every walk and can track via their system where the walk took them that day. They're very transparent and easy to work with! If you're looking for a dog walker in the area, I highly recommend checking them out! read more

Contacted her several times about starting walks for my dog. Would respond once and never follow through.

Lauren has gone above and beyond for our beloved Frenchie Baxter every time we need a walk or a sitter for an extended period of time. Baxter, like most Frenchies, has some special needs and Lauren's attention to detail has kept him looking and feeling great every time we pick him up. She comes highly recommend and I wouldn't ask anyone else took look after our little guy! read more

Very disappointed. We booked 3 days of 60minute walks and were invoiced $22 for each walk (despite the advertised amount being $20). We recently had a nest camera installed and we found our dog was only gone for 30 minutes one day and 15 minutes another day. We had no communication that our dog had to be returned early or why just simply invoiced for 60 minutes. When I queried the invoices I was given a number of excuses as to why our dog had to be returned early but this still did not justify invoicing for 60minutes and by that time the excuses had lost all credibility. Very unprofessional and totally lacks integrity. If you are hiring a dog walker, install a pet camera to make sure you are not being conned! read more

We have been with Waterfront Walks for over 2 months now and it has been an excellent experience. We work long hours and often require late night walks for our puppy. Lauren made sure we never had to worry about a walker not showing up, even on in the toughest weather condition. We get detailed updates about our puppy with awesome pictures. They also carefully follow our frequently changing instructions about our puppy's care. Call out to Seanita, Nancy and Alex - all great walkers! The prices are competitive and fair. Nothing to complain about - highly recommended! read more

Lauren (the owner) has taken care of my dog since she was a puppy. They say you can tell a lot about a person by the way a dog will respond to them, and I believe this to be true. She has an amazing way with dogs and my pup goes absolutely CRAZY whenever she arrives at my home. She gets so excited - it's amazing! She won't leave her side either. my dog is a rescue that has special needs and Lauren is very attuned to this. It's hard for me to trust anyone else with her. Lauren and her company not only have special training, but use all of the latest dog technology to keep me updated on walks. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for the BEST in quality and service. read more

Waterfront Walks has been so great for us and our pup, Juno. They are professional and available for even last minute walks (always a plus!). Kian always sends up photos of Juno after her daily walk which I always look forward to receiving. She's able to walk with a dog similar to her age (asked beforehand by Lauren is this was alright) and Juno lovesss her dog friends so I know she appreciates having a dog pal to walk with. Reasonably priced and reliable, what more can you really ask for? Thank you! read more

My puppy Ben adores his walker Fran. Highly recommend Waterfront walks. Ben loves spending time with Fran. She is very reliable and rates are excellent. She is also available on short notice. read more

Fran and Lauren provide us with the best service. Our puppy is a 10 month old Bernese Mountain dog that just can't get enough of their walks. Every picture they send Chewy is smiling ear to ear! We can't stress enough how wonderful they are! My husband works once a week in the city and is unable to walk Chewy. It was so difficult to find a dog walker that would accommodate us. Lauren has gone above and beyond to work with our schedule. read more

My husband and I can't praise Lauren, Fran, Alex, and everyone at Waterfront Walks enough! We've switched our dog, Dani's, walk schedule a couple of times, so we've had experience with a few of different walkers; and we have loved them all. They are more than dog walkers; they really are our puppy Dani's friends. We've each had the chance to witness just how excited she gets when they come to get her for her daily walk, and it thrills us to know she is happy, safe, and taken care of while we are at work. The reports they send after each walk have a complete summary, and the pictures brighten up our day. Dani has been walking with Waterfront Walks since she was a puppy, and my husband and I truly credit the team and their regularity and dedication for helping us with her potty training. During that messy time, they would always clean up any accidents they found when they came to get Dani for her walk. And during an emergency situation when we spotted Dani being destructive in our apartment over the puppy cam while we were at work just after her walk, they rushed back to help. Now that she's older, Dani gets to socialize with some local friends on her walks, which she absolutely loves. Waterfront Walks is a group of professional, dedicated, and loving people who provide an amazing personalized service that gives us puppy parents not only peace of mind, but true joy! I'm so glad we found them read more

Lauren, Chad, and Jeremiah have all done a great job walking our dog Lincoln. They are extremely flexible and reliable. Their appointment website is easy to use and I am able to see when Linc has been picked up and dropped off. I have only used Waterfront Walks and will to continue to use them as long as we live in Jersey City. read more

After years of working with dog walkers including in Manhattan Waterfront is the one I consider best. Lauren is great at running a business and all the walkers really care about the health and well-being of the animals. I was lucky to find them while I lived in Jersey City! read more

We have been using Waterfront Walks for about 3 months. Really amazing group, Seanita our dog walker is GREAT, responsible, and gets along great with our rescue lab Porter. Once our dog got sick and had to go to the hospital (long story), Seanita was able to let us know at work (even cleaned up his mess) so we rushed home and took him to the emergency room. Long story short, she likely had a hand in saving his life, and furthermore Seanita and Lauren (I think she is the owner) checked in with us while he was in the hospital. Porter is out now, healthy, and loves his walks. They were accommodating while he was on the mend. Now he does pack walks, Seanita does a GREAT job getting his energy out as he naps the rest of the day till we get home. They use an App that gives you updates after their walks complete with pictures, and lets you message back and forth with the dog walker. They were able to get us set up with a dog walker within 12 hours. And you can really tell they care about and love dogs. Could not recommend highly enough. read more

Waterfront Walks has been walking Madison since we moved to Jersey City over 4-months ago. Fran, Jeremiah, and Lauren have been excellent; I really can't say enough about them. I loved how Lauren did a meet and greet with Madison and myself at first, answering any questions and putting me at ease. I then also got to meet Fran and Jeremiah who walk Madison daily. Everyone is friendly, responsive, timely, courteous, and amazing with animals. I look forward getting my daily updates and photos; they are some of the best photos of Madison we have and this is something that no other dog walking service has ever provided us. Madison walks a lot with her regular buddies and she always looks forward to it, running to their apartments even when she is walking with us. She looks like she is having so much fun and playing all of the time! In addition, the online system makes it so easy to book walks, send messages, and payment is seamless. They are also very affordable for the time they spend with Madison. Finally, they are always on top of what is going on in the area and do their absolute best to accommodate in emergencies. I love Waterfront Walks and would recommend them to anyone. read more

After having a few terrible experiences with dog walkers in our new neighborhood, we researched and tried Waterfront Walks. Lauren, the owner and also a dog walker came over to meet our baby (10 year old Vizsla), she spent time with our dog and with us so we could get to know her. We instantly fell in love. Unlike other dog walkers, Lauren and her team take your dog out for a real walk. She doesn't just go to the dog park and let the dog run around. One time we left our garbage out and Lauren tied it up and threw it away so the dog wouldn't get to it. (Even my husband wouldn't do this...). Trust is very important and we have trust in Lauren and her team. We give very clear instructions because our dog has high maintenance needs, and they follow the instructions. Also, and equally as important, Lauren and the team LOVE dogs....and treat our little girl just like their own. read more
