FiFi's Dog Park • 2 Acre Fully Fenced • Private • In Lillington

Step into a spacious, playful retreat designed for pups of all personalities. Our 2-acre playground is perfect for sniffing, running, zoomies, and joyful exploration. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ‼️Updates as of Nov. 2025. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 🐾 Smaller but just as fun! Our SniffSpot is now 2 acres instead of 3, as we’ve set aside space for some new community projects we’re really excited about. There’s still plenty of open room for zoomies, fetch, and off-leash fun! 🌲 Privacy updates for reactive pups We’ve planted 20 beautiful Green Giant trees (5 feet tall) to create future privacy. While they grow, your pup might still see people coming and going — but we’re working to make it cozier and calmer every season. 💧 Hydration & Essentials Everything You Need for a Paw-fect Visit: Fresh water, poop bags, and toys are provided so your furry friends can focus on fun, not fuss. *** Once you book, you and your dog(s) will be the only ones there during your time. The “spot” becomes unavailable for everyone when you reserve it. Only one person “rents” the space at a time! Sniffspot automatically builds in a 30 min buffer between sessions as well so there is no chance of overlap. ***

Davey's Private Dog Park In Sanford

King of Cary

***Naturally treat our yard in the summer so that our guests can enjoy As a rescuer, I totally understand some dogs just can't do social (myself, most of the time too), so dog park is a No. SniffSpot is an option for those special pooches. Quiet private Oasis for guests, private 100% fenced yard, sloped grass yard with 3 patio area. A lot to sniff, a lot of stairs to work out those legs. Very clean yard since I pick up after my own dogs daily. You can sit and relax or enjoy your book or bring a date. Squirrels and birds will make your visit more exciting. We're only 3 mins from Fenton, 2 mins from Downtown Cary. Sometimes I provide water (If I'm home and only one booking) you can get water from garden hose just make sure to shut off the faucet, water rate in Cary is outrageous 😳 Please msg us if you don't see any availability 😀8

Hidden River Farm is a 40 plus acre paradise for humans and dogs. We opened our organic orchard 6 years ago and it operates annually from June to October. So we have decided to try to open it up for use year around if possible. We welcome folks to bring their dogs out to run, retrieve, train or just play for awhile to get the energy out. There is an abundance of land. We offer a picnic area with table and chairs. Both tables offer umbrellas for shade if needed. We have water spigots so that the dogs can have clean drinking water. We also are breeders of Champion Labrador Retrievers. We have chickens, ducks, donkeys, horse and more. We are a working farm that believes sharing is a great thing these days.
