Paw Pals Pet Sitting is inviting you to be a part of something wonderful. Paw Pals in the Park is a group of active dog owners that meets for on-leash walks to explore and enjoy our area parks. Not only will this provide exercise for you and your furry friend but it provides a place for socialization and the opportunity to meet new doggie friends. Paw Pals in the Park meets once a month (generally the 3rd Saturday of each month) year round. Walks are determined by the weather, we will email members at least 2 hours in advance if the weather doesn’t permit walking this would include days of rain, snow, or extreme hot or cold.
To become a member contact us at park@localpawpals.com with a brief introduction and photo of yourself with your dog. This is for safety reasons so that we can recognize members when we meet for walks.
