Dog Walkers in Misty Meadows

Pet owners who enjoy walking their dogs daily will be met with a variety of weather conditions throughout the year. Winters are cold with sub-freezing temperatures and snowfall. When blizzard conditions are occurring, you may need to postpone your daily outing with your pup. Have a warm coat and good footwear for regular winter walks and, if your dog has short hair, your pup might appreciate a coat too! Summers are warm and usually not too hot, making them pleasant for walking with your canine companion. Severe thunderstorms do occur during warmer months, however, and should be avoided as they can produce dangerous conditions.

This roughly square-shaped neighborhood can be divided into four distinct quadrants. The southwest quadrant contains a commercial shopping area, the northwest has single-family homes, the northeast has open fields, and the southeast is occupied by a condominium complex. The single-family homes are well landscaped and have separate sidewalks for pedestrians, quiet roads, and are a good area for walking with your pup. The Trotters Chase Condominium complex does not have separate sidewalks and pedestrians need to share the road with local traffic. 

Misty Meadows is situated on level ground and there are no steep hills to traverse when walking with your pooch in the neighborhood, so people and pets of all ability levels an enjoy walks in the district.

On the west side of the Misty Meadows neighborhood is the Carriage Place community center. The community center has a park associated with it that includes sports fields, tennis courts, and a playground. A paved walking trail is also present and creates a great dog walking destination.

Misty Meadows residents and their pups can walk southeast to Northcrest Park. This 18-acre park has sports fields and athletic facilities, as well as picnic sites and a paved pedestrian loop encircling the park. 

A little further to the south, Misty Meadows residents can access Upper Arlington Burbank Park. With seven acres, natural spaces, and recreational areas, this park has many amenities. Dog walkers will find pet waste bags here and there are also drinking fountains and restrooms as well as picnic sites. The walking trail running through the park is about a third of a mile and there are open and wooded spots to enjoy on walks along the hiking path.
