55Great spot! The pool has a shallow area where you can easily stand and help your dog learn to swim. There were some dogs barking across the street which my dog reacted to. Jordyn thoughtfully put a water bowl out. Windchimes are soothing and beautiful but noise reactive dogs may have trouble because they are loud. Overall a beautiful and relaxing spot!Morgan G.

55My dog loved it. She was smelling around everywhere. Very clean place. This is a great place to take your dog after he has gone to the groomers if they dont get in the pool. I loved the fake grass. Rubi C.

55We are repeat Sniffspotters to this beautiful location. Immaculate property with plenty of shade, areas to sniff and the bonus water feature to cool off! I have since added another furry family member to the pack that is vision impaired. She loves to swim and it was super nice to have the time, multiple level pool entrance and distraction free location to let her acclimate on her own to a new pool. I also love the location of this Sniffspot, in the vicinity of so many walking trails.
Thank you Jordyn for sharing your lovely yard and pool with Sniffspotters!Leslie R.

55This place is awesome! Very clean and well kept, and easy to find.
I brought my dogs + a client's dog here (working in building confidence with other dogs present) and it worked out perfectly. She loved the pool! We will definitely be back.
The only thing that concerned me was that the pool/maintenance guy showed up during our session, and didn't close the gate. If there are loose dogs who would bolt, or be aggressive towards a person entering unannounced, I can see that potentially being problematic for others. Jessica W.

55My dog was so excited when we got there - it is a doggy paradise. He loved getting to chase balls and splash around without being anxious around other dogs or people. It was as great as it looks in the pictures. We look forward to coming back!Laura C.

55This place is awesome! It’s the perfect size yard for our dogs to run and play while also keeping them within eyesight! The pool was cool and clean. Humans and dogs both appreciated it during our visit. Love the artificial turf because we have allergies to real grass! It was amazing. Will be back again. Thank you Jordyn for having a such a beautiful home open to us who live in condos/apartments! 💕Sarah S.

55I was looking for a last minute spot to take my little dude Hank and Jordyn was very accommodating. I mentioned that Hankey was a nervous boy and that I noticed her profile said she had fur babies of her own. She assured me that they would not be visible from the outside area and that she understood my situation. We arrived to the property and it was a beautiful well kept back yard completely fenced in with room for him to play fetch which he loves and take a few dips in the pool. Bernadette S.

55We love this spot! Beautiful backyard and easily accessible. Nice private, secure, high fence so my reactive girl can just focus on being off-leash and playing fetch. We'll be back!Rachel W.

55Spot was secure, clean, and as described. It wasn’t super warm today, but nice that there is shade if it were. I could hear dogs barking inside home a couple of times but it was brief, minimal, and muffled—windows are blocked off visually which is nice for dogs who might struggle with that.Jessica S.

55I appreciate that Jordyn so generously shares her beautiful pool with the canines. A great treat for my dog to cool off after running around. Even though the day was a bit cooler, her yard is so nicely protected with trees and fencing that the play area was sunny and warm. My dogs love that the different areas and terrain to sniff and play! A definite favorite!Leslie R.

55Letting my new rescue Molly enjoy an hour in a backyard all to herself was magical. It is a lovely yard; enough room for some zoomies, to play fetch, and enjoy the cool breeze at sunset. I am so grateful there are people who open their yards up so other pups can have this experience. A huge thank you to our host! Kim U.

55Perfect spot for our pup to run around, get her energy out and explore. Our dog is afraid of water so it was good for her to have a positive Interaction with a pool, even though we didn’t use it, it still helped show her water isn’t scary! Jeannie S.

FAQ about our Lakeside 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 Lakeside?
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.
