Got a new puppy? Getting ready to hit the town with your dog? Liberty Village is home to more and more dogs every year, and the neighborhood is adapting to meet their needs. The people of this community love their dogs and want to ensure they’re getting the best life possible.
From pet supplies to socialization to health and wellness, there are a lot of factors to consider as you raise your dog. This guide can help you figure out where to go in Liberty Village to ensure your dog is getting well-rounded care.
Parks
Liberty Village Park is a beautiful place to take a walk. Be sure to keep your dog on its leash in this area, as it’s not one of the off-leash parks of Liberty Village. Remember to pick up after your dog and dispose of waste in the green bins provided by the city.
Incoming improvements to Liberty Village park include new seating, pathways, and landscaping. Construction is set to be finished in summer.
If you’re looking for an off-leash location, you can head to Liberty Village Dog Park or Bill Johnston Dog Park. Just a block away is Stanley Park, which has a popular off-leash area that’s perfect for socialization.
Village Dog Pack
If your busy schedule doesn’t permit regular walks, Village Dog Pack is the business for you. They also offer pet sitting, which includes pick up and drop off, and walks from 10:30am to 4pm daily. They also have a special package on wedding day chaperoning if you want your dog included in your wedding!
Village Dog Pack exclusively serves Liberty Village, with the goal of socializing your dog with other dogs in the community. They offer pack walks with up to 5 dogs, taking care to make sure that all the dogs in a pack get along well. They are passionate about providing the best possible care for your dog.
