55For our first visit to this huge puppy playground, I booked 2 hours (we came from Alexandria). It was a smart decision, given at the end I had to go hunt down my 2yo pittie princess. She saw me starting to open up the car and put things away, and immediately tried to hide in the vast, fenced space so she could stay longer.
When we pulled up, the driveway gate was secured. It was very easy to open, pull through, and re-secure. Then you pull further up the drive, and the pups get to run free! There was a huge area that was recently mowed and cool, breezy shaded spaces. We walked the perimeter several times together, and the pups were nothing but smiles the entire time.
Note: There are horses living next door! Yay!!They have a fence, the Sniffspot is fenced, and the most my pups could see them was when the horses poked their heads out of the stable windows to say hi. I could also hear a rooster, but I don't think the dogs even noticed. They were too excited about the smells! And the large, funny-looking dogs in the stable. LOLKammy K.

55This is a gorgeous spot. All three pups loved it! We have a 100lb GSD, a 60lb pittie and a 20lb Jack Russell—all had plenty of time to run, play and sniff. We sat in the comfy chairs all around the yard and just sat in the comfy, space. So peaceful. Very gracious host!! Thank you!Sharon B.

55Really amazing spot. Oodles of room for my two doggos to run and play, and lots of different areas to explore and sniff. Host goes above and beyond with amenities for both dog and human. Far and away our best SS experience. We're only sad we didn't find earlier in the summer. Julie F.

55My pup and I had a great time visiting Monja’s Sniffspot! Monja is a very attentive and accommodating host and makes the whole experience wonderful. I highly recommend checking this sniffspot out! The spot is well cared for and absolutely beautiful. It’s also spacious enough to allow my dog to explore independently and decompress from city living. We both love it here and will be back soon!

55Another beautiful visit! Dogs had a fun reunion. So much to sniff and see. Thoughtful water & trash can placement, plus tidy bin of toys and towels. I love how the landscaping breaks up the view, but there are still long zones for a full-on run and chase. We were careful about spots of tender new grass. Thank you for the heavy blankets in gazebo! Comfy, clean, classy.Tia M.

55Truly a SniffSpot! Lots of room to run, but the dogs also loved sniffing every inch of the yard. Several seating areas for humans to choose from while watching the furry ones explore. The host even has towels to clean them off if they get wet or muddy. Will definitely be back! Tara K.

55Fabulous space for the dogs to run, play and explore the beautiful yard. Lots to see, smell and engage the curious canine. Charlie and Scout had a grad time and left tired. Monja thought of all the amenities - blankets to keep warm, towels, toys and treats for the dogs. Definitely on my list of places to frequent! You won’t be disappointed. Kay O.

55AWESOME!! I’m so happy that I went to this Sniffspot. If you have Rat Terriers or any terrier for that matter, this is a great spot. Mine don’t like to chase balls or frisbees, but they enjoy a flirt pole that I always take to a Sniffspot. At this location, there are birds and squirrels and lots of scents for them to sniff. They ran and ran, and now they’re resting like angels. I didn’t have to play too much with the flirt pole because they were so engaged with items in the yard and chasing birds.
Monja was great. She meet us and explained everything before we got started. There are benches and chairs to sit on. I normally like to keep an eye on my dogs when I’m out, and I don’t want to miss them pooping. Anyway, there are toys, treats and water available. There towels in case your pups need a wipe down. She really has thought of everything. I have been to quite a few locations, but this is the first one that the dogs didn’t need me, but I played with them anyway. I will be back.
You will love it!!Nonie H.

FAQ about our Indian Head dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 253 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
