Point Pleasant and Point Pleasant Beach sit at the northern tip of Ocean County, where the Manasquan River meets the Atlantic. From the mile-long Jenkinson's boardwalk to the quiet lakeside streets around Lake of the Lilies and Little Silver Lake, there's a route for every dog. Happy Tails provides professional, one-on-one dog walking throughout Point Pleasant — rain or shine, 365 days a year.
Quick Answer
Happy Tails offers solo dog walking in Point Pleasant, NJ starting at $30 for 30 minutes. Every walker is insured, background-checked, and sends a photo update after each walk. Book online at gethappytails.com.
Point Pleasant gives dogs a real mix of terrain. The Manasquan Inlet and riverfront on the north end offer breezy, open walks with boats and fishing piers to watch, while the residential grid inland is flat, shaded, and sidewalk-lined. Lake of the Lilies — a bird sanctuary — and Little Silver Lake anchor calm neighborhood loops, and Green Acres Park and Pleasure Park add open green space. In the off-season, the Jenkinson's boardwalk becomes one of the best long walks on this stretch of coast. Happy Tails walkers know both Point Pleasant Borough and Point Pleasant Beach and build routes that fit each dog's pace and the time of year.
Happy Tails assigns you a dedicated primary walker who gets to know your dog — their pace, their preferences, whether they're reactive on leash or need extra time sniffing. Before your first walk, we do a free meet-and-greet at your home. Your walker learns your dog's quirks, your house entry routine, and any special instructions. That information stays on file so nothing gets repeated or missed. Every walk ends with a photo update and a brief post-walk report covering behavior, bathroom, and energy level.
Beyond daily dog walking, Point Pleasant clients also use Happy Tails for drop-in check-in visits and adventure trips along the Manasquan riverfront and inlet. Our pet taxi service covers vet runs and groomer appointments throughout Ocean and Monmouth Counties — including clinics along the Route 88 and Bridge Avenue corridors and nearby Brick and Brielle — so your dog gets where they need to go without you having to leave work. (Summer note: Point Pleasant Beach enforces seasonal dog rules on the beach and boardwalk, so we route around them in peak season and use the lakes, riverfront, and side streets instead.)

Yes. We cover both — from the inland residential streets and Lake of the Lilies area in the Borough to the boardwalk and inlet neighborhoods in Point Pleasant Beach. If you're near the Brick, Brielle, or Bay Head borders, just ask; we likely cover it.
Off-season, yes — the boardwalk is a great long walk. In summer, Point Pleasant Beach enforces seasonal dog restrictions on the beach and boardwalk, so we use Lake of the Lilies, Little Silver Lake, the Manasquan riverfront, and quiet side streets instead.
Both work. Single walks are available at $30 for 30 minutes or $50 for 60 minutes. If you need regular walks, our 5-pack ($125) and 10-pack ($230) options bring the per-walk cost down significantly.
Let us know during booking. We work with reactive dogs, anxious dogs, and seniors regularly — the quiet loops around Lake of the Lilies and Little Silver Lake are ideal for low-stimulation walks. We'll match you with the right walker and make sure the meet-and-greet happens before the first walk.
Yes. Happy Tails pet taxi covers vet runs and groomer appointments throughout Ocean and Monmouth Counties, including Point Pleasant and nearby Brick and Brielle. Pricing starts at $30 plus $3 per mile. Book alongside your walking service or as a standalone.
Takes 2 minutes to book online. We'll confirm same-day and schedule a free meet-and-greet before walk #1.
