Pet Savvy
Jersey City is the pawfect place to raise your furry (or not) family members. We are home to a variety of pet supply stores and boutiques, dog friendly restaurants and businesses, and several well-reviewed veterinarian clinics and emergency animal hospitals. Jersey City boasts a supportive pet community with regular meetups and events to celebrate the diverse pets in our families. There are even several social media accounts dedicated JUST to JC Pets. The city also has many great dog parks and dog-friendly parks and walking paths. To accommodate their busy lifestyles, pet owners will find a comprehensive list of daycares, dog walkers, and at home pet care providers. Because of the large pet population, many luxury buildings are now offering in-house pet sitting as part of the concierge services.
