55We had a great time! The yard is fully fenced, and large enough for bigger dogs who like to play fetch. The host was also very friendly and responsive to any questions or concerns that I had. Danielle D.

55Really nice backyard with lots of trees, grass and boulders for your dog to explore. The main reason we booked this spot was because they have a fence my reactive dog can’t see through. The host was really nice and informative about getting to her place, she even went out of her way to inform us her dog and family would be out of sight/sound of our reactive dog. So overall a really nice and peaceful place with lots of room for your dogs to run around. Courtney B.

55This host’s yard was well kept and perfect for my dog to run around in. We did not see or hear any other dogs/people during our visit. It was a very nice, quiet neighborhood. Definitely recommend!Megan L.

55Fantastic lot with plenty of spaces for the dogs to run and sniff. They really needed the release after being on the road fishing with mom for several days. They’re passed out in the car hard.JB C.

55I highly recommend Amanda's place for your furbabies! The yard is huge, and our dogs had plenty of space to run, and enjoy themselves. We did not see or hear any other dogs while we were there. The directions to enter the property were clear, as well as a place to park our vehicle. Pamela P.

55Easy to get to and secure yard. Dogs next door came out but they’re nice and owner is too. FYI there is lots of road noise and mini construction project going on next door so it’s not super quiet if that matters to you, but good space to let our pup run around. Tracy B.

FAQ About Anchorage Dog Parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are 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 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. 1025% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Anchorage area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 22 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 41 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
