The Gem Project
Private Dog Park
Book your own space.
Let them roam freely.
The Gem Project Dog Park offers a secure, private dog park experience where your dogs can run, play, and socialise freely in a safe, enclosed environment. Book a 1-hour dog park session in a calm, beautifully designed space created for both dogs and their owners to relax, connect, and enjoy the outdoors.
Enjoy exclusive access with no overcrowding - Just you, your dogs, and all the time you need. Book for as long as you like and enjoy the space at your own pace.

Secure Your Slot
Explore the sanctuary behind the dog park and see the difference your support makes.
Set on a 24-hectare farm in Philadelphia near Cape Town, we are a dedicated dog and horse rescue sanctuary giving vulnerable animals a second chance. Our sanctuary focuses on rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming animals who have experienced abuse, abandonment, or neglect.
For those not re-homed, The Gem Project Sanctuary becomes their lifelong haven - offering love, security, and a permanent place to belong.

Your unwanted dog goodies can bring comfort, enrichment and joy to the rescue dogs at The Gem Project Sanctuary. Simply bring them along when you visit and help us give your pre-loved pet supplies a second life.
