What Makes Taka Dog Walk Different?
We’ll love your dog as much as you do. Truly.
Taka Dog Walk began with one very special dog — Mischa — and a promise: no dog in our care will ever feel lonely, ignored, or like just another slot in a schedule. Every walk, every visit, every play session is personal. We know our dogs’ favorite routes, their quirks, their fears, and their happy dances. We build real relationships, with both the dogs and their humans.
Heart-Led, Family-Owned Since 2009
This isn’t a franchise. It’s a labor of love built one dog at a time, one trust-filled relationship at a time.
Small, Consistent Teams
Your dog isn’t meeting a new face every week. They bond with their walker and feel safe, seen, and happy.
Quality Over Quantity
We keep our group sizes small, our daycare capped at four dogs, and our attention fully on the pups in front of us.
Balanced Walk & Train Options
For dogs who need more than just exercise, we offer walk & train sessions to work on leash skills, manners, social skills, and confidence. Your dog will be mentally stimulated.
Two Homes, One Heart
Serving Weehawken & Oakland with the same loving heart.
Weehawken & Waterfront:
From the beautiful waterfront community of Lincoln Harbor, we’ve spent years walking these streets and paths with your dogs, helping to build an awesome, vibrant dog centric community. Whether it’s daily midday walks, evening strolls, or vacation coverage, our Weehawken team brings calm, reliable, joyful energy to every visit.
