Newburyport's One and Only Private Dog Play Area

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

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!

Tracey's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Haverhill

Fully Fenced
0.1 acres

Private, fully fenced backyard on a corner lot in Haverhill — a safe, quiet space for your dog to run off-leash. The fence is 58 to 64 inches high (chain-link and wood). One corner sits a few inches lower where the ground slopes, so the lowest point is about 4.5 feet — worth knowing if your dog is a determined jumper. Seating around the fire pit area (the fire pit itself is not for guest use). Water hose available in the warmer months; in winter, please bring water for your pup. Parking in the driveway or on the street, whichever is available. The gate is latched. My three dogs will be inside the house during your visit, so the yard is all yours.

Bentley's Private Dog Park In Reading

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Welcome to our backyard! We know how valuable new experiences are for dogs and how being off leash to run, sniff, and play is good for dogs' physical and mental well being - and ours, too! Our privacy fencing and large yard allows you and your dog to have a safe place away from unfamiliar people / other dogs*. It's great for getting your dog some different sniffs and letting them off leash for a game of fetch! *Our neighbor does have a dog who may be outside during your visit. The neighbor's dog is friendly and absolutely cannot get into our yard. Your dog will be 100% safe, but please know that if the neighbor's dog is outside during your visit, she may try to stick a little bit of her snout underneath any of the small openings along the fence line.

Feel free to reach out via text 603-401-3164 with any questions or concerns. Helpful Info: - Amenities that say "Upon Request" are free to use but I don't like to leave them out all of the time. If you would like to use one or all, just message me through sniffspot and let me know so I can have it out for you. - For doggie play-dates, one person should book for all attendees. - You can park on the street or in the driveway when available. - The pool is protected by a fence in the winter and open in the summer. Access to the pool is blocked by a gate on the deck stairs. - After a lot of rain we sometimes get muddy puddles. - The yard has grass, flowers, woods, a kiddie pool, access to a hose, water bowl, dog toys, a place for pet parents to sit and relax while the doggos play. - Its probably a bit more than a 1/2 acre fenced with grass and a wooded trail. There will almost always be someone home during any visit as I work from home. We have dogs and I will lock them inside the house while we have visitors. Rules: 1. We would appreciate a 24 hour notice for all reservation changes or cancellations. 2. If you have more than 2 cars attending at the same time, please park at North Broadway Crossing. 3. Only one booking is in the yard at a time. 4. Due to the pool, no person under 18 is allowed on the property without adult supervision. 5. It is crucial that you arrive during and only stay for the time booked because another family may be booked directly after you or I could have my dogs in the yard if you are there outside of your booked time and I wouldn't want an unexpected encounter.

Melissa's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Watertown

Fully Fenced
0.1 acres

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.

Frequently asked questions about Gloucester small dog parks

What types of small dog parks are available in Gloucester?

Gloucester has 184 small dog parks offers compact fenced areas, small-scale obstacles, and low-barrier entry gates. Whether you need a fully-fenced space for poor recall, a quiet location for a reactive dog, appropriate sizing for small breeds, gentle terrain for seniors, or specific amenities like water features or agility equipment, you'll find options in Gloucester. Filter by fencing, size, distractions, and amenities to match your needs.

When can I book small dog parks in Gloucester?

Gloucester small dog parks are available based on host scheduling—many operate dawn to dusk or even 24/7. Unlike public dog parks with rigid hours, you choose the exact time that works for you. Check individual Gloucester listings for specific availability. Flexible scheduling is especially helpful for dogs with specific needs: reactive dogs who do better during quieter times, working dog owners needing early/late slots, or seniors needing cooler morning hours.

How do I book a small dog park in Gloucester?

Browse 184 available small dog parks in Gloucester, select your preferred date and time, and reserve through Sniffspot. Most Gloucester locations offer instant booking. You'll receive confirmation, exact address, and entry instructions. The booking process takes just minutes—perfect when your dog needs exercise, whether that's a reactive dog requiring safe space, a puppy needing socialization, or an energetic dog burning off steam.

What's the most popular small dog park in Gloucester?

Bentley's Private Dog Park In Reading is highly rated among Gloucester small dog parks, known for excellent amenities and positive reviews. However, the "best" spot depends on your dog's needs—reactive dogs might prioritize privacy and quiet, puppies might need secure fencing, seniors might want flat terrain, while active dogs might want maximum running space. Browse Gloucester listings to find your ideal match.

Can I use Gloucester small dog parks for training sessions?

Yes! Gloucester small dog parks are perfect for training because they're private and distraction-free. Work on recall, practice confidence building in appropriately-sized spaces, recall for toy breeds, or socialization with size-matched playmates, help reactive dogs build confidence, socialize puppies, or work on obedience—all without public dog park unpredictability. Many Gloucester professional trainers use these spaces for client sessions with all types of dogs.

Do Gloucester small dog parks accommodate multiple dogs?

Most Gloucester small dog parks welcome multiple dogs from the same household. Some hosts set limits (check listings for specifics). If you have several dogs—especially if some are reactive toward strange dogs or if you have mixed ages (puppies and seniors)—private small dog parks let them play together safely without outside interference or triggers.

What amenities do Gloucester small dog parks offer?

Gloucester small dog parks feature amenities like compact, appropriately-scaled fenced areas with low-gap gates, smaller obstacles, and spaces designed for toy breeds and small dogs. Many hosts provide extras: poop bags, water stations, toys, shaded seating, parking, even dog wash stations. Each Gloucester listing clearly shows what's available.
