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 [email protected] 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: [email protected]/973-377-2295x300. Doggy Day Camp & Rompin' Rovers Adult Dog Playgroups: [email protected]/973-524-9098 Adoptions, Donations, Volunteering, Children's Programs, etc.: [email protected]/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.

Gracie's Playground in Long Hill

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Private dog park for your pups! Approx half acre, fully fence 6’ aluminum fencing, with 3.75” between vertical rods. There may be some very small gaps (under 4”) under fencing as it was installed this year. We are facing The Great Swamp wildlife refuge with various animals living behind us, so they may be tempted with scents. 😊 While there is secure fencing under the deck, please also do not allow your dog to dig and create gaps, for safety reasons. This is a private home, the bookings are allowing me to recover from this new fence for my greyhound mix. Please be respectful and do not let your dog urinate on the house, deck, deck stairs, etc. This is a beautiful location against the Great Swamp, and I’d like to share it with other four-legged friends. We just moved from nyc to have a yard, so I understand the importance of off-leash freedom! There is a small trash can at end of the carport (near back steps) for potty bags. Please pick up after your dog. We may be home, but we will not bother you. We are located on a dead end, and it is typically very quiet and peaceful here. You are welcome to park in our driveway. Thank you for considering our Sniffspot!

Frequently asked questions about Maplewood small dog parks

Where can I find small dog parks in Maplewood?

Maplewood has 472 private small dog parks available through Sniffspot, offering appropriately-sized exercise in completely private settings. These locations range from compact spaces to properties spanning 2+ acres. Whether you need a space for your reactive dog, puppy socialization, senior dog gentle exercise, or high-energy play, Maplewood small dog parks provide safe, private environments. Filter for "fewer dogs seen/heard," specific amenities, or fencing types to find your perfect match.

How many small dog parks are in Maplewood?

Maplewood offers 472 small dog parks ranging from compact spaces to properties spanning acres. You'll find options such as fully fenced dog park, indoor dog park, dog agility park, and more. Each Maplewood small dog park listing shows detailed photos, amenities, fencing specs, and reviews from local dog owners.

Are Maplewood small dog parks good for all dog types?

Yes! Maplewood small dog parks work for every dog: puppies learning socialization, senior dogs needing gentle exercise, small dogs who feel safer without large breeds, high-energy dogs requiring space, and reactive or anxious dogs needing privacy. The completely private bookings mean each dog gets the environment they need. Browse Maplewood's 472 options to find spaces matching your dog's specific temperament and needs.

Will I encounter other dogs at Maplewood small dog parks?

Not a chance. Maplewood small dog parks operate on a strict one-booking-at-a-time system, so the space is entirely yours during your reserved slot. Host dogs are kept away, and there's a mandatory 30-minute buffer between bookings—meaning you won't cross paths with the previous or next guest. For Maplewood owners with reactive dogs, puppies, or any dog needing privacy, this makes all the difference in providing safe, stress-free exercise.

Are Maplewood small dog parks safe for fearful or anxious dogs?

Yes! Maplewood small dog parks provide controlled, predictable environments without the chaos of public dog parks. Since bookings are completely private with 30-minute buffers, anxious dogs can explore a space specifically sized and designed for small breeds under 25-30 pounds without overwhelming encounters. Many Maplewood dog owners specifically choose small dog parks for fearful dogs who need gentle, stress-free exercise environments.

Can puppies use Maplewood small dog parks?

Absolutely! Maplewood small dog parks are excellent for puppy socialization because they're private and controlled. Puppies can explore a space specifically sized and designed for small breeds under 25-30 pounds, practice recall, and build confidence without the overwhelming chaos that can create fear or reactivity in young dogs. Just ensure your puppy has age-appropriate vaccinations before visiting.

How do I choose the best small dog park in Maplewood?

Start by filtering Maplewood's 472 small dog parks for your specific needs: secure fencing for escape artists, "fewer dogs seen/heard" for reactive dogs, flat terrain for seniors, appropriate sizing for small dogs, or specific amenities for training. Look for "Top Spots" like Maplewood's Wayfinder's Private Dog Park in Montclair with excellent reviews.Read feedback from other Maplewood owners with similar dog types to find your perfect match.

What are Maplewood's small dog park requirements?

All dogs must have basic vaccinations or titers. Each Maplewood host may have additional rules on their listing. Most small dog parks welcome all breeds, sizes, and temperament levels, including reactive dogs who can't safely visit public dog parks. Adult supervision is required at all times.
