Caitlyn was so sweet and the dogs were comfortable with her right away which put my mind at ease that my babies were in good hands! As a first time user I wasn t sure how the process worked but she took the time to answer my questions. I will definitely be using her from now on!

Why book dog walker in Lincoln

Busy Pet Parents sometimes need a hand when it comes to ensuring their pup is getting the potty breaks and exercise they need. That's where Wag! comes in! Local Lincoln, NE dog walkers are background checked and registered on the Wag! platform, ready to take your dog on an adventure when you need them. Your dog can make a friend in the neighborhood, and you can re-book with the same dog walker easily in the app. Lincoln, NE has "pawlenty" of parks and neighborhoods that your dog is itching to explore!

The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Lincoln

Van Dorn Street / South 84th Street

Rickman’s Run at Holmes Lake provides everything pups need to stay entertained. The terrain is varied, including both hills and a creek! The park is large and entirely off-leash. Dogs can splash, sniff, and explore to their hearts’ content. Holmes Lake Recreation Area provides more challenging hiking trails for leashed dogs in need of a workout--and their owners! When you’re done, head to Carmela’s Bistro & Wine Bar for a fresh salad lunch or glass of wine at one of their seven dog-friendly patio tables.

Woodlawn Estates

Oak Lake Dog Park, located in Woodlawn Estates in Lincoln, is a city dog’s dream. The park is fully fenced. The spacious off leash park offers lots of opportunities for running, fetch, and playing with other dogs. There are some shade structures, but it’s BYOWB (Bring Your Own Water Bowl) all the way. After working off some energy, you and your dog can build endurance by leashing up and heading into Oak Lake Park proper. Leashed dogs can enjoy the walking trails around Oak Lake and through the park.

Nebraska Highway / South 40th Street

Nature is great, but some dogs crave the finer things in life. If your pup is more suited to a silk cushion or refined garden than a park, head to south 40th Street and Nebraska Highway and a trio of refined choices for your pup. First, visit Earl May Nursery and Garden Center. Leashed dogs are allowed among the plants and flowers, so enjoy the center and think about landscaping the backyard at the same time. Next, head to The Parthenon for outdoor dining complete with water and treats for canine guests. If your pup prefers the common touch, Lazlo’s Brewery and Grille has a large patio and regional brews.

Bethany

Bethany in Lincoln is home to beautiful Bethany Park. This park is a large, multi-use space right in the middle of a bustling neighborhood. Leashed dogs will find plenty of stimulation in the sights, smells, and varied terrain of the park. A few loops should help cut boredom and work off some energy! For longer walks, head to MoPac Trail. Part of the Rails-to-Trails conservatory line, this multi-use trail once housed trains. Now it houses joggers, dogs, hikers, and even equestrians! Walk as far as you like, just remember that the path doesn’t form a loop!

Indian Village

Indian Village is a densely populated part of Lincoln. The neighborhood dogs flock to two locations: Rock Island Trail, and Bishop Heights Park. Bishop Heights requires leashes on dogs, but with wide lawns and a break from the bustle of the neighborhood, it’s still a great place to take a dog for a walk. For a longer walk, Rock Island Trail is the place to go. This converted rail line provides lots of interesting hikes for dogs and humans. Stay aware--this multi-use area is popular with many outdoor enthusiasts!
