55Millie and Bruce had a great time exploring and running around. There is only one area that is not fenced but it was blocked my a large tree and they did not seem interested in trying to escape through it. Lots of great sniffing !!Gabriela C.

55Really interesting spot with lots of levels and plants and sniffs for the dogs, and great views for the people.
There are lots of meandering paths through and to get you from level to level, and hills the dogs will run, so watch your step 'cuz some of them aren't paved well.
Nina was awesome - really communicative and helpful.
All in all great host and spot!

55Love this spot. Lots of nooks and crannies for sniffing. Agree with other users, yard is not ideal for fetching or throwing a ball. But my dog couldn’t fetch to save her life, so this spot was great for us.Quynh L.

55My two Basset Hound rescues loved it! They were rescued from a Basset breeder and hoarder in a rural area and were never socialized, so they’re still terrified of the sights, sounds and commotion of the city and parks. This was perfect! They were able to sniff, explore and be dogs, and they were exhausted by the time we left! We’ll be back for sure.Debbie G.

55We loved visiting Nina’s yard. It’s a large, varied space that was fun for our dog to explore. I agree with the comments that it’s a better on-leash environment since there are some hazards (open hot tub, tall ledges). If you’re with your pup and helping them avoid things they shouldn’t get into, you’ll have a great time. Elise B.

55The yard is big and lots to sniff. Definitely a watch-your-step kind of place - not a lot of even walkways. Great for the dog and lovely views for the humans. Jami S.

55Perfect place to let my girls run free ! Lots of different levels / terrain to explore. While not a perfectly manicured yard, it was a relaxed space where we will definitely go to let the girls get their sniff on Alexandra B.

55Scully loved the yard! Lots of interesting things to see and sniff, and enough space to chase her ball. Easy to locate, park, and enter. Fence around perimeter looked totally secure and I felt quite comfortable letting Scully off leash to explore. Definitely plan to come back. Thanks Nina!Melissa C.

55This spot is just perfect for the city! It’s a large yard, fully fenced in, with lots of different terrain to keep them interested. Nice little trash can to dispose of your dog poop and a tap for water fills (bring a little bowl). I have been here often and the host of this spot has put a lot of work into keeping this yard up. I could imagine it is a challenge with such a large and unique spot. Thanks Nina for creating such a haven for my pups!Aleah T.

55Chewy had a great time at this spot. Lots of places to sniff and dig. It was nice not having to worry about him running off or getting overstimulated. He did find a treasure trove of poop by the side fence up towards the top but that was the only thing I would poo poo about this place. Joleen M.

55Nina’s sniff spot was perfect! An amazing view of the city, fully fenced with lots to sniff. Very easy to access, and had plenty of space!
We could hear cars passing if your dog is sensitive to that, but they couldn’t be seen so we didn’t have a problem. Will be stopping by again!Kelsey P.

55Private & quiet spot. Located on a hill so lots of different terrain for a pup to explore -- Made playing fetch more of a game of hide & seek as the ball goes rolling.
Easy to find, easy to come & go.
Trash bin available for poop bags. Adrienne U.

55Lovely spot, packs a lot of different experiences into a smallish space - a little hill and a mulch pile to zoom up and down, paved paths and fruit trees to sniff around, structures to explore behind or under. Great bird watching spot for humans, too. No holes in the fence, not a lot of street noise. Kaya loved it. Me too. Kate H.

55Thanks so much to Nina for this wonderful SniffSpot in the city! Lots of varied plants to sniff, shady and sunny areas, and tons of space. Couldn’t be happier with our experience - we’ll be back! Note for those with mobility concerns: the area is hilly and dogs will want to jump between the different elevations. The fence is also a bit hard to reach for shorter folks. Anu R.

FAQ about our Alameda dog agility parks
Are dog agility parks safe?
While public off-leash dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than city parks. Contrary to a typical dog park, 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 safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. As always, ensuring you use park dog agility equipment safely is also key to an enjoyable experience.
How do I know if a dog agility park works for my dog?
Owners commonly wonder about whether a park works for their dog. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a fenced dog agility park that works for your dog. You can also filter on size to find a larger park or neighborhood parks. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog agility parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog agility parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can read the description of the spot to see the details of the set up, such as whether there is commercial grade park equipment, and other amenities, such as park benches. Browse photos to get a sense for park design. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking agility park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot agility 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. Treat all park equipment with respect and care.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot agility 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.
How much do Sniffspot agility parks cost?
