Noreen is remarkable! She was so patient and loving with our senior dog. Noreen also became best buddies with our parrot! I am so happy that I know I can trust Noreen if I need to be out of town.

Canterbury Hill
Canterbury Hill is on the northern edge of Rome, and although it does not have a hill, it does have lots of places Fido can run around and exercise. One of those places includes Eddy Park, a small, square park with lots of leg room, tennis courts, basketball courts, a playground, and picnic shelter. The area is surrounded by trees for privacy and gives Fido a safe place to run around and play, although he must remain on a leash. There are water fountains, trash bins, and benches at the park. For a longer walk, you and Fido should head out on the Canalway Trail. This trail is a whopping 279 miles in all, with 9 miles of the trail resting in the city limits of Rome. Dogs are welcome on the trail which can provide a great place to go for a short walk, or long adventure. Owners will have to bring clean-up bags and water on the trail.36
Colonial Park
The neighborhood of Colonial Park can get pretty busy, with bustling streets and active residential homes. To conteract the busy atmosphere, the Riverside Park provides a completely forested area for residents to head to, offering peace and quiet, 2.3 miles in nature trails, river access, and best of all, its completely dog-friendly. Dogs must remain on a leash at the park and owners must bring clean-up bags and water. The park also has access to the Mohawk River Trail, a multi-use trail for bikers, hikers, and dog walkers.
