55Great shade and cut field. Nice escape from the heat!
55I'm a helicopter dog mom so super cautious with them. I was so happy with this space! Secure and large enough for them to run until their hearts were content. Plenty of shade with hammocks, chairs, toys, water, and even dog shampoo. Thank you for offering your space to other dog lovers! Jones and Luna had a great time!
55Such a nice spot! Kiddie pool for the dogs, hammocks with shade, and lots of room to run! We loved it!
55Had an awesome time today!!! Water hose was great since it was so hot! Doggies are back at home taking a well deserved nap!
55Always a great time for our pups and us!!
55Heather’s place is GREAT! I took Tyten there to test him off leash as a new dog to me. He loved exploring, and we were lucky enough to see the train pass by! It was really extraordinary. Heather is a great host with spare toys in a covered bucket, a bathing area with freshly rolled towels, garden hose, drinking tray, and very secure! Loved our time here!
55Another great playdate. So love the shade trees, makes the heat bearable with a light breeze today! The boys needed to stretch their legs. 🐩🐩
55We just loved this park. Everything that a pup or pup parents might need! Toys, balls, swimming areas, wash area and lots of shade to rest. We will definitely plan another visit soon!!
55The best Sniffspot we have been to! Secure fenced in HUGE area for your dog to run in. Shady spots in the yard, toys to play with and always so clean! My dog and I love it there!
55Peaceful morning out in nature. We love coming here!

We are a local family and love animals! The Painted Porch -Pooch Park- is just minutes from downtown Punta Gorda. We live on 5 acres with a barn and chicken coop. We raised and said goodbye to our 4 kids, a horse and 2 goats and now want to share our gorgeous land with your sweet pooches. We have 2 dogs, one of which had a very hard time at dog parks and leashes, this property was the answer and he's so happy! We understand the amazing benefits of a Private place to run your dogs, you can relax under heritage oaks, sky-high slash pines while you play with your dog(s) in a safe natural space. You may see eagles, hawks, rabbits, squirrels and many bird species. Fun Fully Fenced 1.5 acres. My hubby Chris and I are Army Veterans, grandparents to 3 boys, love Pickleball, travel, art, beaches and mountain visits. (Dogs smaller than 15lbs are welcome, just walk the perimeter with leash to get familiar with the large layout and fencing type.)
