55The space was great and very clean! They had two water bowls already filled and toys available. There was shade under the main patio and an extra canopy set up for us. Will use this spot again and try the pool next time! Stephanie S.

55Sniff spot is definitely the right name. Munchie did not stop sniffing almost the first 30 minutes! She didn't have much interest in the water or the ball pit. But she loved the tennis balls that were available to us and the toys we brought. Plenty of open area and different textures for the dogs to run around on. Definitely will be back to check out that pool! Thank you so much for opening your home to us! Emily O.

55It was a very well put together place, there was even a welcome note with our dogs names on the sign. Water bowls were placed out when we arrived and some doggy pool toys as well. There was seating by the pool, the fence is well built and it’s a quiet neighborhood. Very thought out and planned by the host. 😊 Highly recommend. Charlotte D.

55Hazel and Babe had the best time! They got in lots of good sniffs and loved playing with the toys provided. The yard was nice and spacious and perfect for fetch. Taylor was even kind enough to let us park in the driveway. The add-ons were tons of fun and my pup had a blast searching for treats that I threw into the ball pit. We’ll definitely have to visit again!Christine F.

55Hoagie loved this yard! There was a cute little welcome sign for him on the gate, a huge box of toys, and a water bowl for him to enjoy while we were there. He did a bunch of zoomies and was exhausted by the time we left. Mission accomplished for me and 10/10 for Hoags!Haillie P.

55Super fun! Thank you for having us. Dogs had an absolute blast. And you live so close by South Park, San Diego where we live. So, we'll definitely be back. Appreciate the dog towels and toys you left out. Big yard with tons of room. The 4 Aussie boys used every part of the yard and and had fun playing ball too.
Unfortunately, the pool was only a hit with the paws the Aussies. Two had never seen a pool before and fell in by accident. Then they wanted nothing more to do with it. But, I had fun going in and retrieving them. Pool was at a great temperature. Thanks again!Barbie N.

55This spot was great! We added pool access to introduce Otis to water and he had a blast. After the pool, he dried off by playing fetch in the grass. Towels, water, and toys were provided and everything was clean making it a seamless process. We will be back! Alliy S.

55Our dogs had so much fun! They really enjoyed the grassy area to play fetch & there was a lot of space for them to roam around. The toys were a big hit and we appreciated the towels & SPF that were provided.
My boyfriend and I loved the pool! It was super clean and the water was the perfect temperature! The doggies didn’t want to do much swimming and one of our Aussies was very concerned for our safety while we were in the pool but we all had a great time nonetheless!!
Just be cautious of foxtails & stickies in the outskirts of the yard. Our fluffy dogs game home with a few but it wasn’t too bad. We were able to get them all out no problem.
We can’t wait to visit again soon!! Ashley C.

FAQ about our Descanso dog water parks
Are dog water 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 guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Descanso?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water 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 dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training 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.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
