Hi! My name is Emily Gilinger and I am a graduate student at the University of Scranton! I currently volunteer at Griffin Pond Animal Shelter but would love to help owners care for their dogs in the community! I love animals and have been trained on how to walk all different breeds and types of “leash walkers”! I wish I could have a dog of my own, but living in an apartment prevents me from doing so. Instead, I’d love to help you with yours!

Dog Walking in Duryea
Duryea is a borough in Luzerne County. This rural community stems from humble beginnings. In 1770, one of the first settlers to the area built a single log cabin on what is now known as Main Street. As more settlers arrived, the town became a mining and farming community. Today, Duryea is a rural community that enjoys the beauty of being set against both the Susquehanna and Lackawanna Rivers. Although it doesn’t have its own veterinary clinic, local dogs know care is just minutes away in the neighboring community of Old Forge.
Healey Park may be on the smaller side, but it’s a great place to go for an afternoon stroll. The park features a playground and a couple basketball courts. Your pooch can practice socializing with two legged friends as she sniffs around. This park also hosts special events throughout the year like Easter egg hunts and Halloween Parties.
The Community Park is another pawsome walking locale. Take your furry pal for a brisk walk around the paved trail that runs along the outside of the park. She’ll get to watch the action in the park while getting in some doggy cardio.
With such puptastic places to walk, it’s no wonder dogs love living in Duryea!
