St Hubert's Private Dog Park in Madison

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

READ ACCESS INSTRUCTIONS BELOW! Half an acre of fenced in field for pups to play in privately on the beautiful property of St. Hubert's campus. Great to get zoomies out before or after a leashed hike or training class in our onsite dog training school. Feel free to stop by Buddy's Boutique after playtime for a doggie snack or new toy. All proceeds go to help homeless animals and low-income pet owners! Message before arrival for the combination to the lock on the gate. *Suggestion from host--lock the gate when you enter so no passersby can come in. People sometimes think this is a public space they can walk into when they see guests inside. Our porta potty is also not public if people claim it to be so. PARTY PACKAGES AVAILABLE! If you would like to have a birthday party, breed meet up or family reunion for 5-30 dogs, please message us here or email ddc@sthuberts.org or call 973-524-9098 for details that can be discussed. Love it here at St. Hubert's and want to get involved in our community? Basic obedience and sports training courses: training@sthuberts.org/973-377-2295x300. Doggy Day Camp & Rompin' Rovers Adult Dog Playgroups: ddc@sthuberts.org/973-524-9098 Adoptions, Donations, Volunteering, Children's Programs, etc.: frontdesk@sthuberts.org/973-377-2295 ACCESS INSTRUCTIONS: The entrance gate to our Sniffspot is on Woodland Ave beside the sidewalk. Park on the street rather than the shelter parking lot for easier access! If you HAVE parked in the shelter lot, walk down the driveway to the street and turn left. Walk down the sidewalk until you see the gate with the SniffSpot sign and lock.

Large fully fenced yard for your dogs, thoroughly cleaned, fresh water, etc..

Fully Fenced
0.17 acres

Thanks for checking out our space. The backyard is fully fenced with plenty of room for your dog(s) to run around. The entire space is covered with multi-sport flooring tiles and is perfect for running or just hanging out. We only allow dogs with basic vaccinations and the space is cleaned in between each visit, in addition to a weekly, thorough power washing. I do like to meet each guest for their first visit, but this is not necessary, so long as there is clear communication prior. There is a bag dispenser and trash can available. I provide fresh water and organic apples and other snacks for each visit, but please bring your own food/water/snacks and toys if needed. There are lights surrounding the entire backyard if you plan to visit at night time. I hope you enjoy your time, and am always open to feedback and improvement ideas. For any questions or rental requests, you can reach me directly via call or text at 929-598-7903. happy sniffing, -Anthony

Frequently asked questions about Hillside small dog parks

Why are private small dog parks better than public dog parks in Hillside?

Private small dog parks in Hillside eliminate major public park risks: unpredictable dog encounters that scare puppies, aggressive dogs that trigger reactive behavior, chaotic crowds that overwhelm seniors or small dogs, and disease transmission from dozens of unknown dogs. Hillside's 467 private small dog parks offer complete privacy, professionally maintained cleanliness, and controlled environments. Whether you have a fearful puppy, a reactive adult, a fragile senior, or simply want peace of mind, private bookings give you control.

How safe are Hillside small dog parks compared to public dog parks?

Hillside small dog parks are significantly safer than public facilities. Public dog parks risk: aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission, overcrowding that triggers reactive behaviors or injuries. Private Hillside small dog parks eliminate these concerns—bookings are completely private, all guests have vaccinated dogs (or titers), and hosts maintain clean spaces. 93% of Sniffspot reviews are 5 stars.

Are Hillside small dog parks safe for reactive dogs?

Hillside owners of reactive dogs choose small dog parks because they offer safe, private environments for off-leash exercise without the triggers of public dog parks. Complete privacy means no unexpected dog encounters, no overwhelming chaos, no aggressive dogs. Reactive dogs can finally enjoy appropriately-sized exercise while building confidence in a controlled setting. Many Hillside reactive dog owners say Sniffspot is their only safe exercise option.

Can anxious dogs safely use Hillside small dog parks?

Yes! Hillside small dog parks provide controlled environments perfect for anxious or fearful dogs. No other dogs means no triggers, no overwhelming situations. Anxious dogs can explore a space specifically sized and designed for small breeds under 25-30 pounds at their own pace without stress. Many Hillside small dog parks offer quiet, spacious settings ideal for building confidence in nervous dogs who struggle at chaotic public dog parks.

Are Hillside small dog parks good for small dogs?

Absolutely! Small dogs benefit enormously from Hillside small dog parks because they can explore without fear of being trampled or intimidated by larger breeds. Many small dog owners in Hillside avoid public parks entirely due to safety concerns—small dog parks eliminate that worry. Filter for appropriate sizing, secure fencing with no gaps, and hosts who understand petite pup needs.

Do Hillside small dog parks work for senior dogs?

Yes! Senior dogs thrive at Hillside small dog parks because they can move at their own pace without being knocked over by rambunctious puppies or young dogs. Look for Hillside small dog parks with flat terrain, easy access, shade, and smaller sizes if your senior has mobility limitations. The privacy means your older dog can rest when needed and enjoy gentle exercise without stress.

What do Hillside dog owners say about small dog parks?

Reviews of Hillside small dog parks consistently highlight: excellent privacy for all dog types, secure fencing that prevented escapes, clean and well-maintained spaces, responsive hosts, and safe environments for anxious, fearful, reactive, senior, and small dogs. Local favorite Wayfinder's Private Dog Park in Montclair is particularly praised in Hillside. Read reviews to see real experiences from Hillside dog owners with similar needs.

How clean and maintained are Hillside small dog parks?

Hillside hosts maintain their own small dog parks and take pride in providing excellent experiences. All guests must have vaccinated dogs (or titers). Many Hillside hosts provide poop bags, trash cans, and regular cleaning. Reviews highlight maintenance quality—browse Hillside small dog park listings to see real feedback about cleanliness and upkeep.
