Hi, I'm Melissa! I'm currently an NYC college student looking forward to giving lots of love and attention to your dog! I became a vegetarian when I was twelve years old because of the animal abuse I saw online. I have grown up with 3 cats and my grandmothers 6 dogs, so I am an all around animal lover! I spent my time in middle school volunteering at animal shelters and donating portions of my pay checks in high school to these shelters! I love animals and I will make yours feel nothing but loved. I look forward to meeting with your furry friend soon!

Hi, my name is Jordan. First of all, I love dogs! I have been walking dogs on a regular basis since 2009. This includes walking my neighbor's dogs. I also acted as a long term dog sitter for an elderly woman who had to move into a home. I literally moved in and took care of her dog and her home full time! They had to sell the home and asked me to adopt the dog (Barkis) which I was thrilled to do and we are best buddies :)

Hi there! I am a huge animal lover and especially love dogs! They are bundles of joy and I appreciate each dog's unique personality. Sadly, my parents would not agree to getting a pup of our own, so I started to volunteer walking/sitting a friend's rescue Pit-bull mix and developed a deep bond. I have experience with all breed types and there’s not a dog I don’t love! I'm excited to meet and care for your furry friend! :)

Dog Walking in Orion Charter Township
The Orion Township is known as a resort town. The city's motto is even, "Where living is a vacation", due to how many short-term residents live there at any given time, thanks to its forested areas, recreational preserves and nature hikes in and outside the city. Most of these places are dog-friendly, which attract long-term, and plenty of short-term, four-legged residents.
The Orion Oaks Dog Park is one the best dog parks out there, with over 14 acres of fenced-in land for Fido to run around off leash. The area includes a double-gated fence, and a separate area for smaller dogs. Usually, that would be enough for most residents and their dogs, but the park offers even more, with a designated doggie swim area that provides an extensive beach and waterhole for dogs. The park also has features like dog-sized water fountains, trash bins, and clean-up stations.
For a more urban exercise destination, head over to the Jesse Decker Park, a 24-acre, dog-friendly park with grassy fields, paved walkways, and a picnic area. Fido is welcome, but must remain on a leash at the park. Park features include water fountains, benches, and trash bins.
The town even offers seven veterinarians, and much more in the way of outdoor activities for you and Fido! Make Orion Township your vacation destination today!

36The South Lapeer Road and Waldon Road neighborhood is in the heart of Orion Township, and consists mostly of dense forests and natural fields. If you're looking for a walk with Fido through these woods, then the Polly Ann Trail will be the best place to go. As a rails-to-trails path, the trail is made up of old railways and travels north for over 32 miles. Dogs are welcome on the trail while leashed. After a few short miles, the path will lead straight into Camp Agawam, a dog-friendly campsite with over 140-acres of land. Owners will have to come prepared with water and clean-up stations for both activities.

There is 1 mile of paved trails in the park, and access to restrooms, picnic areas, a fishing pond, 8 soccer fields, 4 baseball fields and barbeque stations.

Lake Orion Village Center

One of those places is the Atwater Park, a 3.14 acre park with small open areas and paths. Dogs must be on a leash and stay out of the picnic areas and children's play areas. For something a bit more secluded, head over to the Paint Creek Trail, an 8.9 rail-trail that travels the northern length of Lake Orion. The trail has benches. Be sure to bring clean-up bags and water.
Hadley
0Population DensityHadley
0The town of Metamora is 6 miles northwest of Orion Township, with a favorite dog-friendly activity located right in the Hadley neighborhood. Ortonville Recreational Area is a 5,400-acre park with plenty of dog-friendly options to enjoy.

Dogs can even go into the picnic area and shelters, campgrounds, and the boat launch, and adventurous pooches may even try a boat or kayak on the lake. Throughout the park, Fido must remain on a leash or under voice control at all times.
