Newburyport's One and Only Private Dog Play Area

Welcome to Newburyport’s High Street private yard dog play area! I am a secure 100% fenced half-acre private dog park close to a coffee shop, a natural food grocery store, a gas station, the waterfront rail trail, and two large beautiful public parks. Enjoy all Newburyport has to offer before or after your dog(s) run and play leash free in my yard for a more enjoyable and relaxing day. I offer seasonal refreshments and treats for humans and ice cold, fresh water for dogs along with chicken-free treats. There is a community ball bin where you can take or leave a dog toy/ball. We have a stick library and a dedicated dig zone. Guests love the 1/2 acre being open and clear to see their dog(s) wrestle and fetch without colliding into other objects. We are set back from busy High Street with plenty of parking and direct access to the yard through a large gate. Because we are in a popular city neighborhood, Saturdays tend to be loudest with neighbors doing lawn work and kids and dogs can be heard in the distance. There is plenty of space in the yard to avoid the view, in the distance, of people walking by but if your dog is super reactive to everything it might take a few visits for the dog to relax and enjoy the yard. I have made my space affordable and accommodating to owners who appreciate the hard work that goes into making my space available. I hope you enjoy, return often, and spread the word!

The neighbor's dog is friendly and absolutely cannot get into our yard.

I love dogs, and have been providing pet care for 3 decades. We have a great fully fenced in yard space that just recently had beautiful artificial grass installed. No need to worry about muddy paws, ever! The fencing is tall (vinyl) with no spaces or gaps. There's shady spots, chairs, tables and umbrellas for people to enjoy while your dog(s) runs and plays. There are plenty of toys and balls, plus a kiddie pool, sprinkler, hose, bowls, pooper scooper, trash cans, and a great dog house. Great space to host a doggie birthday party. Good alternative to a local dog park. If you don't have a fenced in space, and your dog doesn't do well off leash... this is a good yard space for you. A solution for those dogs who don't do well on the leash and/or pet parents with mobility issues. Available early mornings, and some weekends and week nights. Schedule availability will be posted on a week to week basis.
