55This was our second visit, because the pups had such a great time the first visit! There’s lots of area for them to run, as well as a creek that they love going into. The trails in the back of the property are fun for them to explore also. We will definitely be back again!Deb C.

55This spot was absolutely perfect! I have a senior dog who doesn’t love other dogs or strangers and doesn’t have a perfect recall so normal parks aren’t always great for us. This location was fully fenced in so he could run free, play in the creek, chase butterflies, and lounge in the shade. Bug spray and tennis balls were provided by the host which was an added bonus! This was such a fun and peaceful experience and we will definitely be back!Kristiana A.

55This was our first time using this app and it was awesome! We got to show our doggo that there’s a bigger world than our .2 acre yard. We were curious about his reaction to the stream since he loves water and he’d never seen one. He loved it and jumped right in!
Thank you Sara! We will be back soon. Jesse E.

55Super enriching space! Watch out for the stinky wild animal piles that dogs love to roll their face in 🤢 💩
The water creek in the back is a total bonus and perfect! The seating area was super comfy and accommodating for the humans. The hosts are super kind and we definitely loved our visit!Kristy B.

55The yard was HUGE!!! A tiny bit buggy, so maybe bring bug spray. Sara had an amazing sitting area with doggie bags, a couple toys, and a clean bowl for water. Walking the whole yard was very fun, lots of room for running and fetch. Will DEFINITELY be returning!Erik C.

55This sniffspot is amazing! The creek was a big hit with our golden retriever. The trails in the back were very fun. The yard is very well maintained and our dogs had a blast running off leash. I would recommend this sniffspot to anyone! Shannon K.

FAQ about our Rochester 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 Rochester?
There are 38 small dog parks in the Rochester 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.
