Pet Friendly Villa Park, IL

Hello, Pet Parents! The Pet Lady here, we are thrilled to share the pet friendly gems that make Villa Park, IL a great place for pets and pet parents.  So, leash up your pup, scoop up your kitty and let’s dive into the fun that awaits in Villa Park!

Parks and Trails

The village of Villa Park has plenty of parks that are friendly to on leash dogs. From Lufkin Park on south Ardmore to North Terrace Park on north Westmore there is a lot of green space for your pup to stretch their legs and check out all the smells

One of our favorite trails is the Great Western Trail.  This beautiful trail is perfect for long walks, runs or leisurely strolls with your pup!  The trail is about 12 miles, it provides plenty of space for you and your pup to enjoy nature.  This trail is also a bit less traveled than the Illinois Prairie Path, which also runs through Villa Park.  The Illinois Prairie Path is a multi-use path with beautiful natural flora and space for dogs to explore.

Dining and Shopping

After a fun filled day with your pup, head over to Crazy Pour Sports Bar where leashed dogs are welcome on their outdoor patio.  You can sit and enjoy a meal and drinks with your dog right by your side! Fuel & Creme along the Prairie Path offers outdoor patios with cool treats and drinks you and your pup can enjoy on a hot summer day.

For a bit of retail therapy, head over to Pet Supplies Plus where your pet is always welcome! This local spot offers everything from pet essentials, nutritious pet food to do-it-yourself grooming stations. 

Community Events

One of the best things about Villa Park is a strong sense of community, which extends to our four legged family members as well!  The Villa Park Paws on the Path is a great annual event where pet parents and their dogs can participate in a fun run/walk, complete with pet-themed vendors and activities.  The annual Villa Park Summerfest brings a fun pet parade to the community and a place for fellow pet owners to meet and enjoy the company of their pets!

Pet Friendly Living
