She was absolutely wonderful with my girl!!! I can express how worried I was with my dog being reactive to other dogs, but hearing that she took to her right away made me feel at ease: I ll definitely be booking her for future walks. When an animal feels comfortable immediately around someone, it s a sign someone has a gift with them <3

The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Burtonsville

Leo E Wilson Community Park.

Just five miles east of Burtonsville, you and your pooch can have a ball visiting the Dog Playground at Leo E. Wilson Community Park! This bark park charges an annual fee of $30 to help with the park’s upkeep, but locals say it’s worth the price. With two separate sections for small and large breeds, you can rest easy knowing your pooch is staying safe while having fun. Each section of the park has water fountains for your dog, and there’s also plenty of seating for dog moms and dads. Waste bags aren’t provided, so make sure you bring your own.

When someone tells you to “take a hike,” it’s usually not good, but trust us: take a hike! Just under ten miles from Burtonsville, you and your nature-loving dog can access the Patuxent Branch Trail. At only five miles long, this trail is perfect whether you’re just starting to hike or you’ve been doing it for years. Fido is welcome on the trail with you, as long as you clean up after him and keep him on a leash. You wouldn’t want him running off from you! Have plenty of water on hand for both you and Fido, as you’re sure to work up a sweat.

Wheaton Hills

If you head south from Burtonsville and drive about 20 minutes, you might find yourself at Silver Spring’s Wheaton Regional Dog Park! This spacious, off-leash dog park allows your dogs to socialize with some furry friends, which is great for developing your dog’s manners. With agility equipment, even the most restless dogs won’t get bored at this bark park. There’s a lot of shaded seating for dog parents, but water isn’t provided for you or your pup; you’ll want to bring your own, along with some waste bags to clean up after your dog.

Riverdale Gardens

Ten miles south of Burtonsville, you and Fido can access yet another trail; this one can be found in the College Park. The Northeast Branch Trail is 3.5 miles long, and it’s mostly paved. This means hikers of any experience level will be able to enjoy a leisurely walk along the trail. Fido can walk with you, too! He’ll need to be on his leash, and if it’s hot out, make sure to protect his feet from concrete, which can reach extremely high temperatures. Watch out for bicyclists, who frequent the trail as well. Don't forget to bring some doggie waste bags!

Greenbelt Park

If you’re willing to travel a bit further from Burtonsville, visit Greenbelt Dog Park in Greenbelt, which is 20 miles away. This dog park requires a permit for use, but it only costs $5. It’s a small price to pay for all the fun your dog will have. Greenbelt Dog Park usually isn’t too busy, according to locals, which means your dog will have plenty of room to run around and play with the few dogs who will be there. You can even bring your dog’s favorite toy, if he doesn’t mind sharing. You’ll want to have some water and waste bags on you, as none are provided.
