My dogs had a blast in Aimee’s backyard! The backyard was clean and very spacious. It’s our dream backyard! Aimee was very kind and gave my two dogs a treat. We’ll definitely be back :)

Nice big backyard, Aimee was very nice in our brief interaction. Lots of nooks and crannies and I have a nosy dog so she explored every square inch! Well fenced.

Perfect for my dog! He loves it. Fully fenced, no dogs around in the neighbors garden, the owner even brought some chairs in the garden and have some treats for your dogs. Lovely - I’ll come back again

Loved it! Our Doggo had a great time, and I thoroughly enjoyed admiring the work of a very green thumb. Would love to come back!

Great place with good sized yard to run my cavaliers. Fortunately there were shady spots too for the dogs to rest.

Very lovely and easily accessible private dog spot! Parking was available directly in front of the path that lead to the back yard so very quick in and out. Will definitely be back💕

Great space that is private in the middle of the city. My dog and I had a great time with no distractions and will 100% be back soon!

Such a great spot. So much for Hunter to smell and explore - as well as enough space for a nice run!

Hosted our dog’s 2nd birthday party here! We also did her 1st party here ☺️ Aimee is the sweetest and most accommodating host!

A nice, large backyard in the middle of Vancouver. Some blackberry blushes at the edges with thorns, but didn't bother our dog.

Angela & Jason L.

October 2024

This is a great little spot if you just need to let your dog off leash in a yard. It's fully enclosed and has a decent grassy area to run around. There is a big tree stump in the middle so if your pups are into chasing each other, it's ideal. But not great for longer distance sprints

Saz L.

Awesome little getaway for the pups in the city! Super accessible, street parking, enclosed yard! There were even some toys for her to play with. Me and my dog will be back!

Angela J.

Easy to find and easy access, host was nice and responsive, the space was big and my dog loved running around. There is a large stump in the middle and my dog loved running around it. Thank you!

Erin B.

January 2025

This was such a great play date spot for our dogs! We were able to introduce our puppy to my friends dog in this neutral space. There were lots of places to play hide and seek, and it was great for my puppy to really run free. Thank you so much!!

Erin B.

Another lovely visit to Aimee’s backyard. Perfect for my puppy who is not fully vaccinated yet. We both had a blast. Thank you Aimee!

Cameron F.

Lovely space, clear directions, our dog had an excellent time! Great get away for our pup who needs a little extra space in the city.

FAQ about our Vancouver dog parks
