The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Chester

2nd St/ Trainer St

If your pooch is itching for a walk, help her scratch that itch by taking her to Ethel Waters Park. Named after Ethel Waters herself, this small park pays tribute to the famous singer and actress who was born in Chester. The park sits right on the banks of Chester Creek and is on the smaller side. Although your pup won’t get a rigorous workout here, she will enjoy a scenic waterfront stroll. Be sure to check out the historical monument that marks the spot where William Penn first landed in the territory of Pennsylvania back in 1682. That’s a woofin’ long time ago!

Edgemont

Chester Park is the town’s largest park. Your pooch will keep plenty busy as he explores this 72-acre green space. Take your leashed pup for a walk or jog around the rolling lawns and through the shade trees. Although it’s located in a busy city, this urban oasis is quiet and great place to enjoy nature. But, walking isn’t the only activity at this park. Locals enjoy the outdoor roller rink, tennis courts, soccer fields, and playgrounds. There are also benches and picnic facilities scattered throughout the park. Be sure to bring clean up bags and water for your furry friend. A trip to this park will definitely make your pup’s day!

Upland

Looking for a new place to walk your dog? Upland Park is located in the neighboring community of Upland and is just waiting for your pooch. Clip on her leash and head over for some fun in the sun. Let your pup be the guide as you follow the trails through groves of trees. She can hunt for the perfect stick or try and track a squirrel or two. Picnic benches are tucked away in the wooded areas, so bring a sandwich and a couple biscuits for your pal and paws for a break. The park also features a playground and softball fields.

Garden City

Taylor Arboretum is just 10 minutes away from Chester. Located in Nether Providence Township, this 30-acre park is part of Widener University. It’s also home to a wide variety of trees and plants. Your pooch can commune with nature as she meanders through the forests and meadows and along Ridley Creek. She’ll discover pawsome places like Anne’s Grotto, Rhododendron Walk, and, of course, the Dogwoods. If she’s in a contemplative mood, be sure to stop by the Meditation Grove. Pick up the self-guided walking tour brochure for information about the flora and fauna. No bones about, this place will make your pup’s tail wag!

Clearview

Just 20 minutes east of Chester sits the John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge. The main entrance to this expansive preserve is in South Philadelphia. Despite being located right next to Philadelphia International Airport, it is serene and full of wildlife. Fur-tunately, leashed pets are welcome to explore the 10 miles of trails. Follow your pup as he wanders through the freshwater tidal marsh or along Darby Creek. With such amazing scenery, this is a great spot to get some furrific photos with your pup. The refuge is home to raccoons, skunks, rabbits, river otters, and so much more. So keep your eyes peeled for critters!
