James is the man to go to whenever we have to leave our little Zoe. I would always prefer him to sit for my dog and have a peace of mind that she is well taken care of and in good hands.

Central Utica
Chancellor Park is a great, simple park in Utica. This park has plenty of green grass, and leashed dogs are welcome to explore the park with you. Quinn Park is another great choice nestled right into the heart of Utica. This park caters more to children and sports. Bring the whole family for a game of basketball or playing on the playground, but your dog will still love going for a walk in nature! Hungry? Bite Bakery and Cafe offers dog-friendly outdoor seating and water bowls to dogs who join them for breakfast or lunch!

Walking laps of the perimeter is a great way to burn off energy or warm up for a day of adventuring! You can also try the area’s other park, North Utica Park. This park features a small play area, but far more room for you and your dog to roam. North Utica Park is light on amenities, so bring everything you’re going to need into the park with you.

West Utica
Pixley Park in West Utica wins the “cutest park name” contest in Utica, paws down. This park follows up by being a really charming urban park that packs a lot of fun into a small space. Basketball courts and a few open sports fields give this park an expansive feel. It’s still small enough to make walking laps a quick and easy workout for your pup. The Nail Creek Pub and Brewery in West Utica is a dog-friendly place to relax with a good drink. They feature a variety of beers on tap, and also have an outdoor patio that’s pupular with locals whenever the weather is nice!12
Cornhill
Kopernik Park is a gorgeous example of a small community space. Utica has mastered the art of making a small park into a big escape from the world. A statue of Copernicus at the park's center, accompanied by an educational plaque. It elevates the simple park, outfitted with a few benches and wide, expansive lawns that sometimes host community concerts, into a retreat. Don’t leave Cornhill without visiting the nearby O’Conner Park. This small park is a great place to relax under a tree, or pretend to lose yourself on a short path throughout.
South Utica
Roscoe Conkling Park is a huge, rambling park that takes up a big chunk of South Utica. This park is home to a zoo, as well as wooded trails and ample places to stop and play. Your leashed dog will have a blast exploring this vast space, and even though you can’t take her everywhere, such as the zoo, you can have fun with her anywhere. Bagel Grove is a nearby place to rest and recover from your exploration in Roscoe Conkling Park. Enjoy freshly made bagels and other baked goods, as well as a boost of caffeine served hot or iced.Dog friendly neighborhoods near Utica
