What people say about dog parks around Mathews, Virginia

November 2024

Very nice medium sized yard, great communication, water was made available, and a few balls too! Solid fence all around, sunny space with just enough shade to cool down. Thanks for having us!

Penny's Place checks all the boxes! It is within a 10 minute drive, spacious enough for my off-target Chuck-It! throws, has spots of shade, fresh water access, enough balls to outfit a batting practice, and wonderfully maintained grass coverage throughout. Did not encounter any potential escape or intrusion concerns with the fencing. Summary: Ideal spot for expending seemingly incessant dog energy productively.

Truly the perfect spot all around! Easy to locate, access was smooth & the pups had a blast running around & splashing in the kiddie pool! Super clean, tons of toys to play with & the privacy gives an enormous peace of mind for their needs. Highly recommend & will definitely be back! 🐕‍🦺🐕‍🦺🐾❤️

Pennys place was the perfect spot for our girl to run free. The spacious yard, made us pup parents so happy to see her just be a dog! There was clear communication and easy directions, followed by a TON of chewy balls to play fetch! There were some puppers next door but I assure you the gate is secure and there was plenty of space to play instead of bark. We will love to book for our girl in the future!

Such a great set up! Loved the little pool and all the toys. Sadly, all my dog wanted to do was smell everything, but maybe next time he will play.

This is my 2nd time booking this yard. My dogs love it! Everything is great and I have no complaints. I accidentally left my wallet on the porch and one of the homeowners ran out and gave it to me. Thanks again!

Pennys place was the perfect hangout spot for us! They had everything we needed and more. This will definitely become a regular place to visit for us!

Maggie C.

Backyard is HUGE!!! It was sooo amazing to let my girl run free. She’s an apartment dog and we don’t do dog parks. It was the best to see her chasing balls off leash and still protected by a fence. I will definitely be back! Easy to access and they left out toys. So nice!!

What a wonderful spot for our dogs to run their hearts out! The yard was clean, there was water available for them to drink and even toys! There was a cute porch for us to sit on and chat while we watched them. We will DEFINITELY be back!

FAQ about our Mathews dog parks
