Welcome to Northport, a charming waterfront village on Long Island that’s perfect for a day out with your pup! From pet-friendly shops to outdoor dining and scenic parks, there’s no shortage of places to explore with your furry best friend. This month, I took Aurora & Zero on an adventure through Northport—here are the top spots we discovered.


 

🛍️ PETPORT – A Must-Visit Pet Boutique

📍 Location: 405 Main Street, Northport, NY


Why We Love It: Petport is a locally owned pet boutique filled with unique treats, high-quality pet supplies, and adorable accessories. The staff is incredibly friendly and always has a treat ready for visiting pups. Aurora & Zero loved picking out some new goodies! They got their fall clothes here, (featured in the picture above).


🐾 Pro Tip: They carry locally made dog treats—grab a bag for the ride home!


 

🌳 NORTHPORT VILLAGE PARK (COW HARBOR PARK)

📍 Location: End of Main Street, Northport, NY


Why We Love It: This waterfront park is a perfect place for a stroll with your dog. There’s a large grassy area where you can relax while watching the boats in the harbor. Over the summer, the park hosts live jazz and music events, and pups are welcome to join!


🐾 Pro Tip: Bring a blanket and enjoy an outdoor concert with your pup during the warmer months.
