Top public and private fenced dog parks in Essex, Maryland

Fully fenced large-ish yard w/ a native garden. This space is not overly manicured, so let those pups rip 😁. Also, the garden is hearty, so feel free to let the pups roam in there if they want. There are a couple of trees to help provide shade, a shallow kiddie pool to cool off in (as an extra), and the hose nozel has various settings to help chill your pups out. I have phone chargers and wifi, if you need them while you are here.

There are plenty of chairs, a picnic table, a firepit (if you use, please make sure it is completely extinguished before you leave), a deck, a hammock, dog kiddie pool, dog water pad with sprinkler, and plenty of yard to roam!

Welcome to our yard… and home to our “$10 guarantee.” We love our animals above all else and want to make sure everyone can afford to have a large, safe place for their pups to run and play. That’s why, despite our overwhelming growth in popularity over the past year, we pledge to all our visitors that we won’t raise the price above $10. This is a very large fenced yard behind a single family home close to the end of a cul de sac. Back of yard is up against a small stream and a tree line. There is a small grassy trench that runs part of the yard so be careful if running with your dog! If you share a post or story of your dog(s) using our space to your Instagram, feel free to tag us @dominoandfosters and/or use the “Domino’s Digs” location tag! We love seeing pics of happy pups.

Please add a flat pool fee of $20 as an extra if you intend to be IN the pool with your pet for supervision. This is not a public pool or pool lease or public pool but private service donation/fee for maintenance of pool ( line there added for nosy HOA) we have needed to add this to clear the pool filters, maintenance the liner and avoid large families having a pool party :) for quiet use of home space—sorry. But I do thank you. If it’s just the pet then don’t add the fee. Thank you. Let my neighbors know that my friendly coop with Sniffspot clients is a service to others and my rights with a great review of how peaceful and non disturbing it is!! If the driveway is open park on the side pls also! Thanks-USAF Disabled vet 🇺🇸
