Barangaroo

Wrapped around Sydney's grandest parkland — off-leash lawns, shady avenues and open green for days. The city's best backyard for a dog.

Art deco charm, leafy quiet and Beare Park's off-leash harbour lawn down the hill. The east's hushed corner, glamorous and genuinely dog-easy.

Old warehouses turned cafes and roasters, with foodie weekends and room to spread out. South Sydney's quiet upgrade, easy-going and dog-friendly.

Glebe Point Road runs on coffee, secondhand books and Saturday markets, then spills down to a harbour foreshore walk. Bohemian to its bones and very glad to see your dog.

A harbourside park with marina views and off-leash green, a stroll from the city. Leafy, breezy and easy with a dog.

Warehouse cafes, big skies and Sydney Park's off-leash acres on the doorstep. Industrial-cool with plenty of room for a proper zoomie.

Green Square's high-rise heart, with new parks and wide footpaths threading between the towers. Brand-new, city-close and laid out for a quick loop.

Darling Harbour-close and city-dense, with Wentworth Park's green just over the road. Urban, studenty and handy for a quick lap between the high-rises.

Inner-west edge with Sydney Park's off-leash acres on one side and a craft-brewery strip on the other. Industrial bones, Newtown energy and plenty of green to burn off.

Leafy backstreets, off-leash pockets and a cafe scene that actually wants your dog there. Crown Street's the morning-walk MVP — coffee at one end, a tie-up spot at every other.
