55This is the greatest place to let your dogs off leash. My dogs are used to plenty of room to roam. However, we are at a location with no room and can not be off leash. They sniffed and explored the whole time we were there. I traveled 50 minutes to get here and plan to do so often.
The area is safe for both pooches and their mom's. There is plenty of shade and water is available. I am grateful that I have found the Painted Porch Pooch Park.REBECCA A.

55The space was clean and well maintained. It offered our two bull terriers so much room to run and play together. It was enjoyable to watch the boys have fun in a safe and open environment.Vickie D.

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! Jennifer M.

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!Jennifer M.

55We recently moved to SW Florida from Indiana. Our new yard is way smaller than our previous yard. We feel badly that Sam and Ivy don’t get to run as much as they used to. This was perfect for them to run their hearts out! We felt they were safe the entire time and loved having seating for us to watch them have so much fun! They even had a water bowl and hose for us to use! We will definitely be back!Brandi A.

55Beautiful Land. Shaded with interesting things for the dogs to explore. Peaceful and safe. Real little dogs may escape so keep an eye on them but anything over 15lbs should be good. It is an amazing treat for our pups to run off leash and for us to watch them play. We hope to be back every week. This beautiful place does not disappoint.Christine B.

55Chairs were provided under a nice shady tree. They were laid down so they werent at risk of getting wet which was a nice thought for the next person. There was so much space. Much of it shady, and lots of toys provided as well as a bowl for water. I will be back!Allamanda P.

FAQ about our Punta Gorda dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Punta Gorda area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 98 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 14 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
