Dogs welcome

Taking your pet outdoors is important, especially in high-density dwellings where outdoor space can be hard to find. Regular exercise will benefit your pet as well as you.

The City of Sydney knows the value of having a furry friend and encourages pet owners to be responsible with their dogs.

We have put together the table below to help you find an off-leash park closest to home. Companion animals are welcome at many different parks. While some on-leash restrictions do apply, many allow your pet to be off its leash at all times.

You'll find clear signage and dog litter bag dispensers at all off-leash parks.
