Mind Your Manorville Private Dog Park

Fully Fenced
1 acre

The pool is OPEN. Welcome to our 3/4 acre fully fenced yard. Foliage provides a large amount of privacy and our spot is generally quiet, with rare sightings of neighbors and wildlife (hawks, birds, squirrels). We have a hose you can use, and a pergola with seating and chairs to relax. Two gates are located on either side of the house which are latched. A third gate is present along our neighbors fence which is latched and secured with a zip tie and bungee - a small gap exists. We have reactive dogs and know the struggle of finding a quiet place to enjoy. Our neighbor has a young dog that sometimes barks along the fence until they come and retrieve her. We communicate with them to avoid this as best we can. If you’d like to avoid tall grass, our yard is mowed/trimmed every other Thursday. Send us a message to determine what days it’s been mowed to enjoy a manicured yard visit. If you plan to enjoy the pool, please be sure your dog is wearing a life jacket and supervised at all times. Do not allow them to scratch at the side of the pool - guide them to use the stairs for entry and exist. NO GLASS near the pool or in the yard. Be sure to check yourself and dogs for ticks after a visit! Continuous tick preventatives are recommended for your outdoor pets! Let us know if you have any questions. We hope you can enjoy Mind Your Manorville! *If you are bringing a foster dog to SniffSpot- they sniff for free! Please let us know. **If you are Black, Indigenous and/or queer, your dog sniffs for free- please let us know! **Our next door neighbor has rare visitors that bring their dogs- if this ruins your Sniff, please let us know and we will comp your Sniff! We are on Unkechaug land.

Skarlett's Private Dog Park In Stratford

My pets will be indoors at the time of your booking. Thank you! :) Here on SniffSpot I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where your pets can feel comfortable, socialized (if you wish) and cared for. I’m a proud dog mom of five Cockapoos and a cat mom of one, with hands-on experience raising puppies from birth (including assisting with a litter), as well as caring for senior pets. My home is an LGBTQ+ friendly space, and I’m also a Fairfield University graduate. At my home, your pets will enjoy plenty of space to run, play, and relax in a calm neighborhood that’s great for walks. My goal is to create an stress-free, fun, and safe experience for you and your pet(s). It would be much appreciated if you could book ahead of time so that we can ensure the space is clean and ready for your visit as we like to clean water bowls and fill with fresh filtered water before each visit and do a quick walk through. This will also allow us to locate our cat if he is outdoors and bring him in, as well as our resident dogs. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Shirley dog parks

Are there dog parks in Shirley for reactive dogs?

Yes! Shirley has 642 private dog parks specifically designed for reactive, anxious, or dog-selective pets. Unlike public dog parks where unexpected encounters can trigger your reactive dog, Sniffspot offers completely private bookings. That means only you and your dogs will be there. We enforce 30-minute buffers between visits so you won't run into other park users when arriving or leaving. This makes Shirley Sniffspots perfect for reactive dogs who need safe off-leash exercise.

How many private dog parks are in Shirley?

Shirley has 642 private Sniffspot locations ranging from cozy backyard spaces to expansive properties spanning 4+ acres. You'll find fully fenced dog parks, small dog parks, and dog fields options, each offering complete privacy during your reserved time. Browse listings to compare sizes, amenities, fencing, and reviews from other Shirley dog owners.

Are Shirley dog parks friendly for all dog types?

Absolutely! Shirley Sniffspot locations work for every type of dog: puppies learning socialization, senior dogs needing gentle exercise, small dogs who feel safer away from large breeds, high-energy dogs requiring space to run, and yes, reactive or anxious dogs needing privacy. Because bookings are completely private, you can customize the experience to your dog's specific needs—whether that's careful puppy introductions or stress-free exercise for nervous dogs.

Will there be other dogs at Shirley dog parks?

No, that's what makes Sniffspot different from public dog parks! We only allow one booking at a time, and host dogs must be kept away during your visit. When you book a Shirley dog park, you have the entire space to yourself (plus any dog-owning friends you invite). This privacy is crucial for reactive dogs, puppies in training, or any dog who needs space from other animals.

What makes Shirley dog parks safe for anxious dogs?

Shirley Sniffspot locations provide controlled, predictable environments without the chaos of public dog parks. There are no aggressive dogs, no inattentive owners, and no unexpected encounters that could traumatize anxious or fearful dogs. All guests must have vaccinated dogs (or titers), and hosts maintain clean spaces. 93% of Sniffspot reviews are 5 stars, with many highlighting how safe their reactive or anxious dogs felt.

Can puppies use Shirley dog parks?

Absolutely! Shirley dog parks are ideal for puppy socialization because they provide controlled, distraction-free environments. Puppies can practice recall, build confidence, and explore without the overwhelming chaos of public dog parks. Just ensure your puppy has age-appropriate vaccinations before visiting any Shirley Sniffspot.

Are Shirley dog parks good for small dogs?

Yes! Many Shirley Sniffspot hosts mark their spaces as "small dog friendly," meaning they're appropriately sized for toy breeds and small dogs. Unlike public dog parks where small dogs risk being overwhelmed or injured by larger breeds, Shirley private bookings give your small dog the entire space to themselves. Look for secure fencing with minimal gaps and hosts who understand petite pup needs.

What are the requirements for Shirley dog parks?

All dogs must have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. Each Shirley host may have additional requirements listed on their booking page. Most welcome all breeds, sizes, and temperament levels, including reactive dogs who can't safely visit traditional public dog parks.
