When you adopt a pet, you also adopt a huge responsibility, and part of that responsibility includes making your pet a part of your decisions. It’s important to make sure that wherever you choose to call home is just as pet-friendly as you are. Fortunately, Stonybrook Luxury Apartments is one of the most cat and dog-friendly apartments in Deptford, New Jersey. We know you consider your pets a part of your family, so we’re sharing some helpful tips to get you and your four-legged friend acquainted with the area.

Animal Hospitals
 

No one enjoys going to the doctor, but it’s important to keep your pet healthy and up-to-date with their vaccinations. No matter the time or the urgency, there’s always an animal hospital close by in Deptford. Greenfields Veterinary Associates offers wellness exams, special care for puppies, dental care, microchipping and even acupuncture. Gray Fox Animal Hospital is another nearby option. They provide anything from on-site surgery to nutrition counseling, to nail trimming.
 

Daycare and Boarding

It’s nice to get away every once in a while, but you might not necessarily want to bring your pet along. Halo House Animal Resort was founded on the idea that if you’re going on vacation, your dog should, too. Activity-based care ensures that your pet won’t be confined to a tiny crate. The Pet Care Services Association-affiliated resort has a play yard to keep your pet moving, private pools during the summer and even a “snuggle story time.” Another option is WOOF Day Care & Boarding, which offers cage-free daycare has a park-like setting with both indoor and outdoor play areas. They even offer exit baths at the end of your pet’s stay.
 

Grooming

If your pet needs a trim or a good bath, why go to the groomer when the groomer can come to you? Dog Gone Stylin' is a mobile pet grooming service that serves parts of Southern New Jersey. All services are performed inside Dog Gone Stylin’s custom van. They offer baths and brushing, quick touch-up services and styling. The aforementioned Halo House Animal Resort also has an on-site pet spa. Their pet stylists have over 40 years of grooming experience and provide standard grooming and a la carte spa treatments.
 

Parks

Exercise is as important for you as it is for your pet, and there are several dog parks near Deptford, NJ, that will keep you and your pet moving. Washington Lake Park has a dog park with countryside walking trails, but all dogs must remain on a leash. A great off-leash option is Timber Creek Park, which has a nine-acre, fenced-in dog park, as well as miles of nature trails throughout the rest of the park.
