The best dog friendly neighborhoods
in Tacoma

Sunset Beach

Sunset Beach is one of the premiere neighborhoods in Tacoma, featuring beautiful views of the water and plenty of space to walk Fido. Whether you are taking a stroll through the neighborhood or heading over to the Chambers Bay Off Leash Park, your pup will thank you for spending quality time together. This 1-acre off-leash area is adjacent to the golf course, and provides amazing views while you stroll. A separate area for small, shy or senior pups creates a peaceful atmosphere for your dog and his friends.

McKinley Hill

Home to many historic buildings and quaint shops, the McKinley Hill neighborhood offers some of the best views of Commencement Bay while walking your pup through the city. While exploring the area, be sure to let Fido sniff his way over to Rogers Dog Park where he will enjoy a fenced in area where dogs can be dogs. Pup parents will appreciate the benches and shelter in the shade as well as drinking water. Not far from Rogers Park, your pooch can get even more exercise at the McKinley Park where the lower portion is fenced. A playground is perfect for two-legged children while your four-legged pals meander along the scenic pathways.

North End

Water views and long sidewalks to take Fido for a stroll make the North End neighborhood a great place to raise your four-legged family. Point Defiance Park is one of the most well known in the area, and features 700 acres of trails through the woods in addition to an aquarium and zoo. After spending time at this park, you and your pooch can traipse over to Wright Park and enjoy the 27-acre arboretum. Pup friendly activities are often scheduled in the park, so be sure to check announcements for these putastic opportunities! Nearby, Standing Stones Photography & Design is a premier pet photographer and will take unique photos of your pooch. For a bite to eat, Odd Otter Brewing welcomes your pup on the patio tasting room so you can socialize with friends without leaving Fido at home.

South End

Located below the city center of Tacoma, the South End neighborhood features parks and sidewalks perfect for taking Fido for a stroll. Making friends with your dog loving neighbors is simple if you hang out at Wapato Lake Park. Covering 1-acre, the park is on the edge of a 285-acre lake where your pooch can dip his feet in the water or chase after a ball. With three different fenced areas, pups of all sizes can romp and play with the freedom of being off leash. Shelters and benches keep puppy parents comfortable while socializing with friends.

West End

Finding other furry friends in the West End neighborhood is easy while walking along the sidewalks. With some of the most spectacular views in the city, neighbors tend to spend hours outside with Fido and family. Planning a trip to Owen Beach is a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Picnic shelters along the waterfront offer grills and a restroom close by. After expelling all your energy at the park, head over to Defiant Goldfish Tavern, where you can enjoy pizza and craft beer with your pooch on the gated patio. You may also want to visit Two Town Pub for drink or evening meal where you and Fido can sit outside and enjoy the breeze.
