About the Park
Plainfield, a Hendricks County town on the western edge of the Indianapolis metro near the airport, is where you will find this free off-leash area. It operates as a public space at no charge. The local climate follows central Indiana's pattern of hot summers and cold winters, so carry water on warm days and be ready for muddy ground after rain. Because our records list no set hours, the reliable move is to check posted signage at the entrance or contact Plainfield's parks department for opening times and rules. Bring waste bags, confirm your dog's vaccinations are current, and supervise closely in the group. For residents on the west side of the metro, it is a practical, cost-free outlet for active dogs.
infoWhat to Know Before You Go
Pet Run is an off-leash area without full fencing. Make sure your dog has solid recall before letting them loose, and keep an eye on them near any roads or boundaries.
Best of all, Pet Run is completely free to visit — no membership or daily fees required.
backpackWhat to Bring
Fresh water and a bowl
Even parks with water fountains can have them out of service. Bring your own to be safe.
Poop bags
Most parks provide them, but don't rely on it. Always come prepared to clean up after your dog.
A folding chair
This park may have limited seating, so a portable chair can make longer visits more comfortable.
A reflective collar or light-up leash
If you visit near dusk, visibility gear helps you keep track of your dog and stay safe.
High-value treats

Your dog's favorite toy
