The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Roxbury Crossing

Lower Roxbury

Madison Park High is the place to go for a quick walk in Roxbury Crossing. This park is mainly geared towards sports fields. There are grass and turf football fields, as well as a set of basketball courts. These courts are perfect for playing, but when they’re not in us,e are also a fine place to walk your dog. Even if the fields are taken, the size of the park is great for walking laps. Set a brisk pace and you could cover ground, turning a 20 minute double-loop of the park into great exercise for you and your dog.

Mission Hill

The Kevin W. Fitzgerald Park in the Mission Hill neighborhood of Boston is a one minute drive from Roxbury Crossing. It’s a beautiful, well maintained 5.5 acre park that’s great for getting lost in. Bring a picnic to eat with your dog on the expansive lawns, or just bring the water bowl and hit the trails. This park has the space to make you feel like you’ve left the urban crawl, even though you’re still in the heart of a busy residential and academic neighborhood. Shy dogs might prefer Back Of The Hill Urban Wild, a less frequented green space in the Mission Hill neighborhood instead.

The park is mostly grassy fields and walking paths that circle Fort Hill Tower. There are great photo ops of this local landmark from the park! Your dog will love rooting through the grass, and you will love that you don’t have to go far to get him to work off steam. Dogs should stay leashed in the park. You’re also going to need to bring your own water and doggie bowl with you, as this park is light on amenities.
