About Me

During her ten years as a professional dog walker, founder Vanessa Ivey realized that the dogs in her care really wanted and needed more outside time—more than a typical dog walk allowed. A thirty-minute stroll through the neighborhood didn’t do much to help their boredom or release their pent-up energy from being indoors for hours on end. After partnering up with a fellow dog walker for all-day, year-round play group for three years, it was time for Vanessa to branch off on her own, using all the knowledge she’s acquired to bring her personal vision to life…

OUTSIDE play group is dedicated to giving your dog an ample amount of exercise and playtime in a safe, outdoor, and off-leash setting. With our affection and guidance, they get the socialization and mental stimulation they deserve, while also building confidence as a member of a pack.

Together, let’s help your dog have some doggone fun.
