Courtney was great! My dog has separation anxiety & is usually freaking out when I get home after being gone all day. But this time, she was calm and happy. She clearly loved Courtney!

Taylor was such an amazing sitter! She gave me detailed updates every time she checked in on the pups. Will definitely hire her again if she is available :)

Sheana came through when I was in a pinch. I needed someone to let the dogs out because I was stuck in traffic in the mountains. She responded last minute and had excellent communication. She’s the best!

It was our first time leaving Skittles with a sitter, and Daniel did a great job of assuaging our fears! He was super communicative and made sure we knew that Skittles was in good hands. Highly recommend!

Kelli was awesome boarding my two dogs. Not only did she give daily updates with videos and pictures she also worked with them on introducing them to her cat and getting used to her big dogs. Can't recommend enough!

West Downtown

West Downtown

West Downtown is a furrific neighborhood for doggies who love their walkies. Here, you and Fido can stroll around six parks, including the world-famous Smothers Park. While there are a couple of restricted areas, you can take your pooch for a leashed walk through most of the park’s amenities, such as the Shelton Memorial, signature fountains, and picnic areas. One spot that you shouldn’t miss is the overlook, where you can catch stunning views of the Ohio River. Within walking distance from Smothers Park are two pup-friendly restaurants, Fetta Specialty Pizza & Spirits and Colby’s Fine Food & Spirits, both of which have outdoor seating.

One of the best ways to enjoy Owensboro’s natural beauty is to hit the Rudy Mine Trails inside Ben Hawes Park. The single and double track trails, which stretch more than seven miles, accommodate all skill levels of bikers, runners, hikers, and puppers. Just remember to keep Fido on a leash at all times. Aside from the Rudy Mine Trails, the expansive, 300-acre Ben Hawes Park is home to a large recreational park with playground equipment and open air shelters, an archery range, a sand volleyball court, the Ben Hawes Golf Course, and a gravity racing track that hosts the Owensboro Lions Club Soap Box Derby.

Dogwood Azalea

Dogwood Azalea

Residents of Dogwood Azalea love their community for being family-friendly and peaceful. A good place to spend a relaxing afternoon with Fido in this neighborhood is Moreland Park, where you can walk or jog along the paved trail and hang out at the open air shelter or picnic tables. One of the bigger parks in the city, Moreland Park also has a playground, a basketball court, 2 baseball diamonds, and 12 lighted tennis courts. Less than a mile away from the park, though technically outside Dogwood Azalea, is Lic’s Deli and Ice Cream. This old-fashioned ice cream shoppe has one dog-friendly outdoor table.

Two large green spaces in this neighborhood make it a puptastic place for humans and canines that love exploring the outdoors. Take a leisurely walk around Horse Fork Creek Park, or stroll along the 6.4-acre stocked lake at the adjacent Yewell Heritage Park. From Yewell Heritage Park, you and your doggo can access the Adkisson Greenbelt, a 15-mile asphalt trail that encircles Owensboro. If all that walking has left you hungry, there are three places where you can grab a bite: Overflow Cafe, Salsarita’s Fresh Cantina, and Culver’s. Salsarita’s and Culver’s do not offer table service, so Fido will have to wait outside when you go in to order, though the latter has a drive-thru window.

Carter Rd

Carter Rd

The Joe Ford Nature Park is an oasis in the city that both you and your dog will appreciate. Open 365 days a year, the walking trails are lined with 40 different trees, flowers, and plants, and are home to a variety of birds and small mammals. The Joe Ford Nature Park also serves as the trailhead for the 15-mile-long Adkisson Greenbelt. Following this asphalt trail will bring you and Fido to various spots throughout Owensboro as it links several neighborhoods, parks, business districts, and schools. Always keep your pet on a short leash and on the right-hand shoulder when walking along the Adkisson Greenbelt.
