Welcome to Your Pup's New Favorite "Day Date" Spot. Tired of crowded public parks? I get it. Sometimes you just want a safe, relaxing space where your furry family member can be a dog without any drama. That's why I opened The Old Seminole Heights Private Dog Park.

Our mature trees provide tons of natural shade, so even on a hot Florida day, you can both stay cool and comfortable. This isn't just a place to let your dog off the leash; it's a peaceful sanctuary where you can both unwind. We prioritize safety and a relaxed atmosphere, so you can enjoy some quiet time while your best friend has the time of their life. Come see why our private park is the ideal spot for a little quality time with your favorite pup. Parking arrangements: Please pull right into the driveway. I do ask that you keep your vehicles off of the concrete area in front of the fence right next to the house. If the driveway is not available, pull into the front yard parallel to the road.
