55run don't walk! This is a huge fully fenced horse property with several fenced corrals. (2 horses remain out of sight of the Sniffspot corral, which is closest to the road) ... Owners are dog lovers and very kind.
When we arrived the gate was locked & we almost left, but host showed up near the fence and let us in & showed us around the property. My dog had a fantastic time running and sniffing everything. Hosts have big plans to eventually open another corral, create walking paths, and a seasonal little pond.
Currently one huge fully fenced corral is for sniffspot reservations. My dog had a fantastic time being a dog & it was a relief not to have to worry if she was going to get into something, because the property is completely set up for dogs.
Recommend you message hosts through app to confirm your reservation as they currently are having issues getting support with the app from Sniffspot.
My dog didn't want to leave & we Look forward to being regulars at this spot. Michele S.

55I brought a dog here from the rescue I volunteer at, and he was absolutely in doggie Heaven! I was about 15 minutes late due to traffic but Caren was super accommodating. The yard has everything you need: water bowls, poop bags, tennis balls, etc. The area is completely enclosed. Caren even offered to take Ringo and I on a walk around the property (the larger property the yard is in is also completely fenced and enclosed) and invited us to stay past our allotted time. The dog I brought loved every second he was there. Caren and her husband are both extremely kind and are true animal lovers. They even sent the dog I brought home with a big bag of treats. I absolutely plan on coming back and recommend this sniff spot to everyone!Jayne K.

55We had a lovely visit to this Sniffspot and plan to make it part of our regular routine. Access is through a gate which you close behind you and then drive a short ways to park next to a very large fenced field. The entire property is fenced and has multiple separate fields and a path that circles a citrus orchard.
My dog had the greatest time running and sniffing and then running some more.Vickie C.

55This is hands down the BEST sniffspot I have visited. The lovely couple is extremely attentive to any questions or concerns you may have. (They are having issues with the app so I would connect with them a day or two before planning to visit to avoid any technical issues). Rest assured that everything is 100% fenced in. I am probably the most paranoid Dog mom and I kid you not, I walked every inch of this property to ensure my dog wouldn’t escape. The owners are so sweet. They even had a little treat bag ready for Levi once we arrived. They Kept my mind at ease, and even introduced one of their dogs to mine and it was a wonderful experience to finally see my dog not be reactive towards another and just enjoy himself. We walked around the property off leash. Levi was able to experience Pony’s, chickens, and a beautiful walk. There are toys provided, buckets with water, shade and poop bags. I will definitely be back. Thank you guys for such a beautiful experience. Diana P.

55Really awesome spot! Totally fenced in field for those pups who need that. The owners were super sweet as well and had treats for the dogs upon arrival which was so awesome. Caren even brought down a toy box for them! They even offered for us to walk the property as well outside of the field. Really awesome people with a great property Alyssa S.

55Wonderful experience. Hosts are lovely and welcoming. There is a shaded seating area with balls, toys, poop bags, hand sanitizer. Fully fenced, grass is cut short which we really appreciated. Clean water for the dogs, easy access from the road. It was great for our dogs, one who needs a lot of space to run, chase balls and frisbee, and the other who likes to leisurely sniff around perimeters. Liz R.

55What an amazing place for my big dogs to be able to explore and never have to worry about them taking off!! The entire property is well secured and gated. Caren was so kind to take me and my dogs on a walk around the property and my boys LOVED exploring off leash!!! I thought my one mischievous dog would be naughty but he did so well cause everything is secure. He found himself in the miniature horse stables with them and just thought they weee bigger dogs. But the horses were so patient there was no issue. And my dogs didn’t react to them. Because the horses were so patient and accustomed to dogs. As for the actual sniffspot, my dogs loved running and chasing balls (even though they were pretty tired after the walk). I saw the previous reviews and made sure to reach out to Caren a few hours before the appt time and getting to the place was a breeze. One of the best sniffspots we’ve been to and we’ve been to them in over 3 states!! Susan A.

55This place is a dream come true! The owners are so kind! I'm truly impressed with everything. It's clean and safe, there is shade, toys, poop bags, sunscreen, and several huge buckets of water. This was our second visit, and each time the owner gave us a bag of freeze dried treats to take home! She said it was a New Zealand lamb. The dogs had a blast. The first time we visited, they invited us as their guests. They showed us around the property, and let the dogs run all over sniffing and exploring. Today we were allowed to explore on our own. We had such a great time. We will definitely be back! Adelina C.

FAQ about our Cathedral City fully fenced 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 guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
