What we do
volunteer with us
Want to be a part of Dog Friendly KW? We rely on volunteers and are always looking for more dog lovers to join our team!
Dog Friendly KW was created in 2020 by Justine Sparling and Mackenzie Drinkwater as a fun social media account for two friends and their dogs.
It quickly grew in popularity with local dog owners who were seeking more dog-friendly places to go and things to do in Waterloo Region.
In January 2023, Dog Friendly KW was incorporated as a non-profit organization. From its humble beginnings, Dog Friendly KW has now grown to include a board of directors and a team of over 40 volunteers, reaching thousands of community members across Ontario through fun, educational, and engaging content and events.
