Rent the best private dog parks hosted by locals in West Chester, Pennsylvania

A peaceful location close to downtown West Chester. Lots of shrubs, trees, and open space! The chickens are a fun addition. The area is private and the gazebo is a wonderful space to relax while the pups burn off some steam.

Great spot in the suburbs of West Chester, fully fenced in yard with a deck, a gate on each side, flat level ground, toys provided.

I own 11+ acres in West Chester (bordering Downingtown), although I’m currently offering access to the 4.5 acres that is not fully forested. The side of the property you’ll be enjoying has the mill which was built in the 1760s and converted into a home in the 1970s. This strip of land is bordered by a creek on the one side, and a millrace on the other. The millrace is where the water used to run when the mill was operating many moons ago. Both the creek and millrace have water, although the creek has proven to be much more alluring to visiting dogs. The deepest area in the creek is approximately 8ft. There is a bench there for you to sit and enjoy the view while your dog swims in the water. There is another, more private area, where your dog can get easy access to the creek water. I can provide you with a chair to enjoy this area, and will likely already have it there upon your arrival. There are steep embankments for both the creek and the millrace so it would be an effort for your dog to cross them to “escape.” At the end of my 4.5 acre property, the land comes to a peninsula where the millrace and creek meet to become one body of water. This peninsula serves as a natural barrier although my friend’s young German Shepherd did jump out into this water and after a deer on one frightful day. Fortunately, we got him home/back but I think it’s prudent for me to disclose this harrowing event for the safety of your fur baby. There is an outdoor stone patio where you and your pup(s) can relax in the shade. Here you’ll find a filled water dish for your pup(s) to enjoy and a trashcan for your dog waste. If past dog visitors are any indication of future visits, your pup(s) will likely be thirsty from all the exploring, good smells and open land to run and play. I have one of those tennis ball throwing devices that help you throw a ball super far that you’re welcome to use too. I ask that you don’t encourage your pup(s) to chase after the wildlife here, not just for their sake, but for the safety of your pup(s) too. I think the hawks might have put a dent in the small wildlife around here. You won’t see many small animals like squirrels or bunnies, although you are likely to see deer. If your dog is a young/strong “chaser” you might want to visit with a leash. You’ll also find less snuggly wildlife here like snakes and ticks. I ask that you use your best judgement in supervising your dog(s) and be sure to check them for ticks before leaving. Of course at your first visit, I’ll give you a tour of the layout with your dog leashed to ensure your comfortability with the space. I’d ask you to kindly replace the raft in the creek should your visit cause it to pop. For future consideration: I have about 7.5 more acres of land (on the other side of Harmony Hill Rd) that is forested, rather secluded, and also bordered by the creek. Here you’ll find the remnants of the dam that used to feed the mill, and some amazing water landscapes including large rocks and crystal clear water. I’m slowly trying to establish a walking trail in this area but it’s been hard keeping up with all the overgrowth. I’d be open to bartering where you would help cut back the trail overgrowth in exchange for your dog enjoying the forested area.

Looking for a little off-the-leash freedom for your dog? Look no further! We have a spacious backyard for your dog’s entertainment! We are located in a quiet, minimally-trafficked neighborhood and our yard backs up to the woods. Angus, one of our dogs, loves to play fetch and he has plenty of space to get a good run in! We’d hope your dog would enjoy the same opportunity to run free :) We have a deck for human viewing (if you’d like), with some human and dog treats available. Water bowls are present and there is a hose should your pup need a refill. We’ll have some balls out for fetching in case your dog is like ours! We appreciate if you bring your own poop bags but we’ll have some available should you forget. Easy disposal in our trash can on your way out. Note: We do have security cameras on the house that keep an eye on the yard.

Quiet neighborhood You MUST stay on the property with your dog at all times *Note: I do have a small yorkie who gets along with other dogs & enjoys to play. If needed, he can be kept inside* Neighbors adjacent in corner (not directly next to) of property have dogs who are occasionally outside *** MAX 2 HOURS PER VISIT *** Please message before booking to confirm timing or if you have any additional questions.

Great, 1 acre lot for your pooch. The lot is currently not fenced in, but there is a long dog run and plenty of space for your furry friend to get their exercise!

Welcome to our peaceful, fully fenced haven for dogs. We offer a grassy retreat where you and your dogs can play fetch, sun bathe and relax in the hammock and swing. When the weather is warm, we put out a kiddie pool for water play, and you may also use the garden hose, if needed. You can also have breed meetups, pup birthday parties, dog training, litter mate reunions, photo shoots, and foster or adoption meet & greets in the privacy of your own Sniffspot. Come play!

Hello and welcome! We have a fenced in yard that is safe and secure. If you have a small dog, there are a few areas where he/she could squeeze out so please make sure you watch for this. Have a seat in one of the various chairs or play with your pup - your choice. There will be a few toys and doggy snacks available. There will also be a outdoor faucet where you can fill your furbaby's water bowl. The area is fairly quiet as we are close to a dead end street. I'm here most days so I may pop out to say hello. You can bring a guest or 2. 🙂 We ask that you leave the area as you found it and PLEASE clean up if he/she goes poo. Also, please keep your dog from digging holes. You are a guest and we hope you and your pup enjoy the yard but you're responsible for him/her. Thank you.

**November 2023 We got an outdoor heater for guests to use to keep warm!! Guests responsibility to turn on/off depending on your heat needs** Does your dog love to run? Love to swim? Love to chill in the shade? We have it all! Enjoy 3 acres of fenced in land to run around, a private lake for you pup to swim in or do some dock diving, and a bamboo forest perfect for getting some shade and feeling at peace. We have an active train that can run nearby twice a day. Most dogs don't mind, but if yours does, be mindful that it can show up (: Two people per dog please! Any additional people should be added under "extras". Also: We do have a mole issue which causes holes AND dogs digging holes. Be mindful of any holes! We fill them as often as possible, but want everyone to be safe and mindful of any potential hazards!
