55Hadn’t gotten a chance to bring the pups for a while… and it’s just as wonderful as I remembered!!! Of course it’s not green anymore but it is clean and wide open and wonderful. We brought five of our best-est friends and had a glorious time 🤩♥️🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶♥️Marie B.

55Wow. This was my first Sniffspot experience and I couldn’t be more happy with my experience at Pepper Play Park. The gate was very secure, the grasses were well maintained (brown, because it never rains, but short), there are poop bags provided if you need them, clean water bowls of various sizes with a source, and there was more than ample space for the cattle dog to wear himself out. I can’t wait to return for future visits with Audio and some of his pup friends.
Big thank you to the hosts for providing such a great spot for our furballs. Alexander S.

55My dogs were so happy, and so tired at the end of 45 minutes. They have toys, a huge yard, and plenty of water. I only had 3 dogs, but the people before us had about 20+ dogs. I will definitely go here again. It is only a dirt field, no grass, but that is understandable considering the water situation.Terri H.

55We just love coming to the Pepper Road Lay Park. My dog, who is reactive and can’t be off leash just gets to run and run! Occasionally, we bring pup friends. They have a ball!Stephanie D.

55This is by far our fave sniff spot! Always clean, mowed down, no foxtails or anything unsafe for our dogs… they have extra tennis balls, poop bags attached to the fences, and water bowls to fill from their faucet…❤️

55Another great visit. We are in a severe drought and no one is allowed use thousands of gallons daily simply to keep grass alive. So don’t be surprised and don’t complain to Sniffspot that the ground is hard. Fencing is great. Very clean facility. Lauren D.

55This was Oso’s first sniffspot so I wasnt sure what to expect, but it was great! The fencing was totally secure. I had no concerns that Oso would get out. A previous guest had missed 2 poop pick-ups but both way off to the side near the fence so it did not affect our visit at all. The signage and parking instructions were clear. The ground was a bit uneven in places with some small holes, so if your dog has sensitive joints, be aware of the potential for them to step in a hole while running around. We will definitely be back!!!Alli B.

55This was our first time ever using Sniffspot and our two Jack Russell Terriers had a blast! A huge amount of space to run around and a nice big tree to sit under for shade. We would definitely visit here again in the future. Kyle K.

55Great spot for our high anxiety girl and working on her counter-conditioning to anything moving. If you have a dog with similar tendencies, this is a great spot, and it provides plenty of space to work with!Reuben A.

55This is a great spot! Dogs loved running the open space. Water readily available. Easy to offload dogs as you drive right into the area, shut the gate and then turn the pups loose!Cathy P.

55I’m just so happy that there is a place I can run my pup. She’s reactive, so it’s hard to let her play with other dogs. This sniff spot is super fun and safe for my girl! It’s always so clean and well taken care of.
Highly recommend!!Stephanie D.

55Great place to let the dogs run around. We were so relieved the grass is very short so I wasn’t worrying about foxtails the entire time now that it’s summer. One addition that would make it a perfect place is a table to go with the chairs, as we would love to bring lunch out there next time. We look forward to visiting again. Kristin W.

55Another great visit to this space. It provides a much needed spot for training for our dog and he just loves the running he's allowed to do also. Love that the field is recently mowed. With new fencing in several places!!! And, the gophers provided so much entertainment for Loki!! :) My only suggestion is to trim up the new foxtails that are just starting, mainly around the edges of the shed in the middle. Other than that, everything is fabulous. Appreciate the chairs and the bench by the shed for the shade :) Thank you so much for offering this space. We will be back!!!!

FAQ about our Cloverdale small dog parks
Are small dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Cloverdale?
There are 21 small dog parks in the Cloverdale area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
