The Weenie Wonderland

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

We have an amazing large backyard with a large deck. The deck can be blocked off with dog gates so you can just enjoy the yard. We have a dachshund but he had an accident and is paralyzed now so we don’t spend as much time in the yard as we used to. Please pick up your dogs poop if they use the bathroom in the yard.

0.5 acres

Large private backyard in 28205 — a spacious in-city yard with mature oak trees providing shade across nearly half the property and open skyline views of downtown Charlotte. With no homes behind the property and one neighboring house currently unoccupied, the yard feels surprisingly open and private despite being close to the city. Ideal for: • Dogs that need room to sprint • Owners looking for private off-leash space • Apartment or small-yard dogs needing extra room Features: • 6’ privacy fencing around the majority of the yard • 4’ fence section along the driveway (not recommended for known escape artists or high jumpers) • Flat, well-maintained grass • Large shaded areas from mature oak trees • No rear neighbors + skyline view • Simple, low-touch access Please Note: • Property is located near an active rail line. Trains pass intermittently every few hours and the whistle can be loud. Most dogs are unbothered, but noise-sensitive dogs may want to consider before booking. • Property includes a rope swing. Use at your own risk. • Dogs must be supervised at all times and waste must be removed. • Please ensure the gate is securely closed when entering and exiting. Spacious. Private. In the city.

Dog Paradise in Northwest Charlotte

Fully Fenced
2 acres

**The pool is closed for the season.** Welcome! We have a fun property your dogs will love! We have a 2 acre property, which includes approximately a half acre fenced area, a 1 acre unfenced area, and a separately fenced inground pool area. Only dogs are allowed in the swimming pool (unless you're actively helping or playing with them). Two creeks outline our property and dogs are welcome anywhere on the property. We tend to keep the grass in the back of the property a bit longer to support the bees, but it also makes for lots more sniffing for the pups! If you're using the unfenced portion of the yard, dogs must be on leash. We have dogs of our own, but we will keep them secure in the house when you're using the property so you'll have the whole yard and pool to yourself. Please see the amenities and access instructions portions of our profile for more information! We bought our property specifically for our own dogs to enjoy, so we know yours will love it too. We look forward to having you!

**UPDATE** We have made the difficult decision to sell The Ponderosa. We will continue offering Sniffspots until we have a new owner. *************************** Wide open for dogs that need to run. Our guests have highlighted that they appreciate that they have easy visibility to keep eyes on their dog. The pasture was originally used for goats so there are lots of interesting smells. Picnic table and outdoor furniture for humans or dogs underneath shade trees. Climbing structure. Currently we have had to shut off the well due to a leak. The buckets will have water in them. Trash and poop bags available. Entrance is 80 yards away from residence. Minutes from 485/Lawyers Rd - easy to find, easy to get to!

Your Complete Guide to Dog Parks in Charlotte

 

Pulled into the Frazier Park off-leash area on a Sunday afternoon and couldn't even find parking? Or watched your dog turn into a mud monster at Ray's Fetching Meadow after one of Charlotte's famous afternoon thunderstorms? Charlotte, NC is booming, the dog population is exploding right along with it, and the off-leash dog parks infrastructure is struggling to keep up. Between the humidity that makes summer walks miserable and the crowds at every decent public spot, exercising your dog shouldn't feel this complicated.

 

Charlotte's got public options scattered around like Frazier Park, Ray's Fetching Meadow, McAlpine Creek Park, Reedy Creek Park, Renaissance Park, and Shuffletown Park, but they all share the same issues. Overcrowding, inconsistent maintenance, and plenty of codes and signs reminding you about vaccination requirements, collars and tags, and current tag information. Even popular spots like Swaney Pointe K-9 Park, Ramsey Creek Park, and the commercial Skiptown Dog Bar & Park get packed. Dog owners across South End, NoDa, Plaza Midwood, and throughout Mecklenburg County are ditching the public park lottery for private Sniffspot bookings. Fully fenced yards where your dog isn't one of fifty trying to share the same fenced-in areas. No dog bite incidents with strangers' dogs, no fighting for a shady spot, just dependable access.

 

Why Charlotte Dog Owners Love Private Dog Parks

 

Here's what public off-leash areas can't always guarantee. Dog still working on coming when called? Solid fenced-in land means they're secure instead of potentially running toward Sharon Road. It's July and the heat index is pushing 100? You need water stations and actual shade trees, not asphalt and direct sun. Dog doesn't handle large dogs well or gets anxious in chaotic play areas? Private yards eliminate those variables completely.

 

Charlotte, NC Sniffspot hosts get what dogs need in the Queen City. Properties with pools and water features for brutal summer days, covered areas for the random thunderstorms that roll through, agility equipment for breeds that need jobs to do. Nobody's verifying if other dogs are spayed or neutered. No exposure risks to communicable diseases in overcrowded spaces. Training sessions with food or treats? Way more effective without twenty distractions in shared play areas.

 

What Your Charlotte Dog Actually Needs

 

Charlotte dogs need better than the typical off-leash dog parks experience. Fully fenced yards that are actually maintained, not just chain link with gaps. Water stations that work year-round, especially during humid summers. Reliable dog defecation cleanup with bag stations and waste stations, not overflowing trash cans you find at public walking areas. Space that matches your dog's energy and temperament instead of one-size-fits-all chaos. And honestly? They need fenced-in areas that feel secure, not spots where you're constantly scanning for escape routes.

 

Where to Find Dog Parks in Charlotte

 

With nearly 600 Sniffspots across the Charlotte metro, there's coverage everywhere. South End, Dilworth, Myers Park, NoDa, Plaza Midwood, University City, Ballantyne, SouthPark, Uptown. Matthews, Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, Concord, Indian Trail, Waxhaw, Fort Mill. Even Lake Norman and Belmont areas have multiple options.


Filter for dog fields if your dog's a runner, water features for cooling off, smaller secure spaces for anxious pups.

 

Pro Tips for Charlotte Dog Park Visits

 

Book early morning or evening from May through September because midday heat is rough. Bring more water than you think necessary (humidity dehydrates dogs faster), poop bags for dog defecation cleanup at waste stations or bag stations provided by hosts, and towels if afternoon storms are forecast. Spring and fall are perfect for longer sessions. Food or treats for training? Pack them, and use that private time effectively.

 

What sets Sniffspot apart: your time slot is exclusively yours. No off-leash dogs appearing while owners are on their phones. No navigating social dynamics with random people and their pets at crowded walking areas or near the fishing pier at parks like McAlpine Creek. No wondering if that spot will even be available when you drive across town. Just secure, fenced-in land that works around your schedule. Browse the hundreds of Charlotte options above and book your new regular spot.

55So perfect! My pup is a rescue with a backstory and has difficulty going to public parks. Patrick’s place was just what she needed! Secure fencing, so clean, lots of space to run around, and he even had treats, water, and some toys! We will be back!

55Patrick has a really nice yard. He was friendly. The yard is fully fenced and gives no opportunity for escape artists. It’s in a safe neighborhood. We’d love to come back another time!

55Kate has been amazing! We were displaced from Asheville with Hurricane Helene and she has been so generous with theuse of her space. It’s a great spot, clean, and Kate is extremely responsive. Lots of toys and access to water and poop bags.

Frequently asked questions about Charlotte dog park

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. 10% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Charlotte 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 417 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 649 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.
