Shayla's Paradise Fully Fenced In Middletown

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Welcome to Shayla’s Paradise — a peaceful, fully fenced backyard created out of love for a very special golden retriever named Shayla. She inspired the purchase of this home because of the spacious yard she adored so much. Though Shayla has passed, her spirit lives on here through happy paws, wagging tails, and endless playtime. Today, the yard is still enjoyed daily by her siblings, Zayn and Lola Bunny, who love running, exploring, and relaxing in the space. Your pup will have access to a large fully fenced yard perfect for sniffing, zoomies, fetch, or simply relaxing in the sun. The space also includes fresh water access, a kiddie swimming pool for the pups, a cozy hammock for owners to unwind, and a beautiful two-tier patio/deck area to sit back and enjoy while your dog plays safely. Chuck it balls and thrower provided! Thoroughly washed after each use for the next doggies to enjoy! Whether your dog needs a quiet private space, exercise, enrichment, or just a peaceful outdoor adventure, Shayla’s Paradise was made with dogs in mind and welcomes every wagging tail like family. Poopie bag dispenser attached to post under deck. See pics! My 2 dogs will be kept inside during your visit. You may hear them bark at first arrival.

My pets will be indoors at the time of your booking. Thank you! :) Here on SniffSpot I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where your pets can feel comfortable, socialized (if you wish) and cared for. I’m a proud dog mom of five Cockapoos and a cat mom of one, with hands-on experience raising puppies from birth (including assisting with a litter), as well as caring for senior pets. My home is an LGBTQ+ friendly space, and I’m also a Fairfield University graduate. At my home, your pets will enjoy plenty of space to run, play, and relax in a calm neighborhood that’s great for walks. My goal is to create an stress-free, fun, and safe experience for you and your pet(s). It would be much appreciated if you could book ahead of time so that we can ensure the space is clean and ready for your visit as we like to clean water bowls and fill with fresh filtered water before each visit and do a quick walk through. This will also allow us to locate our cat if he is outdoors and bring him in, as well as our resident dogs. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Durham dog parks

What types of dog parks are available in Durham?

Durham offers 720 diverse Sniffspot options including fully fenced dog parks, small dog parks, and dog fields. Whether you need a fully-fenced yard for a dog with poor recall, a climate-controlled indoor space, a swimming pool for hot days, or an expansive field for running, you'll find it in Durham. Filter by fencing, size, amenities, and "fewer dogs seen/heard" to find your ideal match.

Are Durham dog parks safe for all dog types?

Yes! Durham Sniffspot locations are designed to accommodate every dog: energetic puppies, cautious seniors, tiny toy breeds, giant breeds, social dogs, and yes—reactive or selective dogs too. The completely private bookings mean each dog gets the exact environment they need. Whether your dog thrives with stimulation or needs calm and quiet, Durham has 720 options to match their personality and needs.

How do I book a dog park in Durham?

Browse 720 available Durham dog parks, select your preferred date and time, and reserve instantly through the Sniffspot platform. Most Durham locations offer instant booking, while some hosts prefer to approve requests. You'll receive confirmation, exact address details, and check-in instructions after booking.

When can I visit Durham dog parks?

Sniffspot's private booking system lets you reserve Durham dog parks based on host availability, and many operate dawn to dusk or even 24/7. Unlike public dog parks with rigid hours, you choose the exact time that works for your schedule. Check individual Durham listings for specific availability and any seasonal considerations.

Do I need a membership for Durham dog parks?

Sniffspot operates on a membership model with monthly or annual plans that include credits for bookings. Members get discounts at participating spots. New users can start with a 7-day free trial. Don't worry, there are no additional booking fees! Your credits cover everything.

What's the most popular dog park in Durham?

JJs Private Dog Park and Agility Field exit 37 off I-84 is highly rated in Durham, known for excellent amenities and consistently positive reviews. However, the "best" park depends on your dog's needs. A reactive dog might prioritize privacy and secure fencing, while an active dog might prefer acres of running space. Browse Durham listings to find your perfect fit.

Can I use Durham dog parks for training?

Absolutely! Durham dog parks are excellent for training because they're private and distraction-free. Work on recall, practice agility, socialize puppies, or help reactive dogs build confidence, all without the unpredictability of public dog parks. Many Durham professional trainers use Sniffspot for client sessions.

Are Durham dog parks fenced?

Many Durham Sniffspots are fully fenced, but not all. Use the "fully fenced" filter to find secure enclosures if your dog doesn't have reliable recall. Listings show fencing details including height, gaps, and type so you can confirm it'll contain your escape artist. For reactive dogs who need visual barriers, look for solid fencing options.
