Shelby went above and beyond, cleaning up when dogs got sick in the house before she arrived, and closing extra doors to prevent further mess. So grateful for dog walkers like her caring so thoughtfully for the pups and our home!!!!

I was out of town and Ross went above and beyond to save the day with a last minute issue. He was prompt to respond and helped tremendously in terms of easing my anxiety. Thank you, thank you Ross - 12/10 recommend!

The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Metairie

Bonnabel Blvd

Located on the banks of Lake Pontchartrain, Bonnabel Boat Launch Dog Park will satisfy your pup’s desire to be free outside. Cool breeze from the lake refreshes you as you watch your pup roam around the off-leash park. Play equipment keeps your doggo entertained, and a water fountain keeps them from overheating after a long afternoon of running. There are benches and portable restrooms for dog owners. It should be noted that there is not separate areas for small and larger dogs; the fenced-in space is just one big grassy area. The park is open daily from dawn to dusk.

Lafreniere Park

Featuring a spacious 5 acres, your dog will quickly fall in love with Lafreniere Dog Park, an off-leash dog park. A smaller fenced in area allows small dogs less than 22 lbs. to roam freely, while another space is dedicated to larger dogs. Think twice before you bring all the neighborhood dogs on a stroll, though; you can’t bring more than three pups at a time. Water, benches and shade are there to help you and your pooch out when things get sweaty. Park hours are Monday through Sunday from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The park also includes a disc golf course, ball fields and a patio garden.

Downtown Metairie

Zita's La Pizzeria is just the option if you’re looking for a casual, pup-loving diner. Enjoy a calzone, burger or sandwich off the grill, while your happy pup sits at your feet at one of the four hound-friendly outside tables. Their hours are Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Once you’ve had your fill of pizza, take the 5-minute drive to Lafreniere Bark, a dog park that give your furry friend five acres to roam around to complete the day.

Lakewood

Take your pup and explore the miles of pathways through Metairie Cemetery, one of New Orleans’s largest and historic graveyards. Over 9,000 tombs fill the resting grounds, some dating back to the 1800s. This low-key stroll allows you to honor those who came before and you what’s important in life, which is the fact one year for dogs roughly equates to 15 human years. Don’t ever take your pup for granted! The cemetery is open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Dogs must remain on a leash. After your walk, you can walk the half-mile to The Bulldog, a dog-loving pub with plenty of canine-friendly tables.

Navarre

What dedicated dog lover doesn’t love eating at a restaurant named after one of the most loveable dog breeds? The Bulldog, a well-known pup-friendly establishment, offers a host of casual pub food and drinks, from burgers to nachos to more than 60 draft beers. The restaurant isn’t just dedicated to feeding you quality food while hanging out with your pup. They also care about the well-being of canines in the Mid-City area, showing their love and support by hosting dog-themed events around town, along with hosting occasional “Yappy Hour” nights, in which a portion of the proceeds go to local nonprofits that help hounds.
