Wunderland Private Dog Park In Southfield

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Welcome to our “back 40,” featuring an evergreen alcove, a small wooded walking path, lots of room to run, and tons of sticks to play with. For the humans we have a picnic table and two lounge chairs for relaxation. Special note for June and July: it’s mulberry season, and boy have we got ‘em (fortunately they are not toxic to dogs). Please note that our parking spot and part of our Sniffspot are covered by mulberry trees, so you *will* get berries on your shoes. Dress accordingly! 👍🏼

Arron's 0.5 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Royal Oak

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

My backyard is a half-acre haven that's perfect for both wildlife and pets. With plenty of space to roam, it’s a paradise for dogs, offering endless opportunities for play and exploration. The area is bustling with life, as squirrels dart up trees and across the yard, adding a lively charm to the serene space. Whether you're tossing a ball for your dogs or simply enjoying the natural surroundings, I hope you have a great time! If you would like a coffee just let me know, I usually have a pot brewing ☕

Sale! Jennifer's Private Dog Park In Livonia

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Spacious backyard with grass, some dandelions, a patio, and some chairs. There are a few trees for shade and a stick pile. Reach out with anything you need and I will make sure to provide the best I can for you and your pup! I hardly use the backyard at all except to add leaves or compost to the compost tumbler or occasionally to mow. That means it is all yours. This spot is definitely OPEN and no need to verify that with me beforehand. I will mark if it is occupied. Water spigot is outside of fenced area, on left side of house (viewed from street) near gas meter.
