55Gorgeous GIGANTIC yard with ample space to run and play. We loved the long rectangle layout of the yard and how clean it was. The house is easy to find and we felt so welcomed by the thoughtful accommodations left out for us. Our little guys went home with a sweet note and bag of treats addressed to us, completely exhausted from getting their zoomies out. I am so happy to have been able to spoil our two apartment dogs taking them to Penny’s place. Hang C.

55This spot was perfect. Ton of space, the longest yard I’ve probably ever seen! We brought our own ball, etc. but they have everything you need. The privacy fence was a godsend for my reactive shepherd. We will definitely be back (and we have to go across the tunnel to get there-WORTH IT!)Molly S.

55This was such a great Sniffspot! The yard is huge and my dog had a great time sniffing around. It was so nice to have the toys already there. We didn't hear any dogs in neighboring yards, which was very nice for my reactive dog. We will certainly be coming again! Alex D.

55Very secure fence, well maintained yard, and so much space for my pup to run. Water bowl available and filled, chuck-it balls with a thrower, several other toys, and places for me to sit. Poop bags are also available with a garbage nearby. They’ve thought of everything! Will absolutely be back again, my pup thoroughly enjoyed himself. Katrina H.

55We loved this spot being so convenient to where we're visiting. Solid fence, relatively quiet so my reactive dog actually focused on running around instead of flipping out over other dogs, definitely a great yard if your dog loves to play fetch (with a stock of balls to match).

55This was my first time using Sniffspot and I can not believe I have not heard of this sooner!!! Anne's place was perfect. I wish you could do 30 minutes instead as my dog is a Frenchie and there's no way he's going to play for an hour before having a heatstroke LOL. But he was ready to go within 10 minutes. I understand that probably wouldn't really be worth it though. I will definitely be bringing him again! Their yard is huge and they have all kinds of tennis balls and toysEmilee C.

FAQ about our Norfolk 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 Norfolk?
There are 69 small dog parks in the Norfolk 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.
