Heidi dropped in to let my dogs out a few times a day while I was on vacation. During that time, Mother Nature dumped a lot of snow on us. This obviously had me worried about whether or not she would be able to make it. Heidi had no issues making it there and took great care of my fur babies. She even played ball with them in the snow. Highly recommend her.

The best dog friendly neighborhoods in Independence

Doggie Date Night

Are you tired of the dating scene and the swiping left and right? Do you wish you could just take the town with your furry friend by your side? Do you have $20 and a desire to treat Fido to a three-course meal? Look no further than the Doggie Date Night at The Courthouse Exchange in partnership with the Brookside Barkery! This event benefits the Great Plains SPCA and invites humans and their four-legged companions to enjoy a lavish meal on The Courthouse Exchange patio. Advanced booking is required.

Twin City Drive In

Revisit the magic of childhoods past at the Twin Drive-In movie theater. The Twin Drive-In theater shows both an afternoon and evening showing for both the early birds and the night owls. Guests are encouraged to bring blankets, chairs, and other camping gear to set up shop at this blast from the past. There are concessions for sale, but guests are welcome to skip the line and bring their own cooler of goodies. Leashed dogs are welcome to showings as long as they stay with the humans. Settle into a retro night out at just $10 for both showings.

Heritage Festival

Each year, the City of Independence partners with the Parks and Recreation Department to put on the Heritage Festival and subsequent skateboarding competition that usually follows. This festival is the intersection of music, sport, and culture, highlighting the diversity in Independence! There will be live music and dancing demonstrations, ethnic food vendors, and activities for the children to participate in. Heritage Festival brings the community together to celebrate our differences through storytelling and art, and leashed dogs are welcome to join.

Howl-O-Ween Trunk or Treat

Sponsored by Titos Vodka at the dog-friendly Foundry, Howl-O-Ween Trunk or Treat welcomes dogs and children to trick-or-treat while mom and dad enjoy a cocktail. No Howl-O-Ween event is complete without a dog costume contest, so be sure to dress Fido in his spooky best to compete for the prizes and the glory! There will be live music, beer, and a full food menu available at The Foundry. One hundred percent of cocktail proceeds go to the Great Plains SPCA, so while admission is free, donations are greatly appreciated.

Hummingbird Festival

With school’s start just around the corner, the George Owens Nature Park hosts their annual Hummingbird Festival for bird-lovers and novice watchers alike. The Hummingbird Festival invites guests to come see an assortment of different hummingbird species sipping on the numerous feeders throughout the park. There will be wildlife rehabilitators present giving presentations on nursing hummingbirds back to health for rerelease, and how to identify the different species. Leashed dogs are welcome at all of the outdoor facilities, and admission is free!
