Apple Watch stuck on logo and not responding

How can I reboot Apple Watch Series 3 that is stuck on the logo and not responding? I’ve force started it a few times but it’s still stuck on the logo. I tried resetting and erasing data by using my iPhone but it says that it couldn’t find/locate the watch. Does anyone know what to do?
