55Large connected paddocks with trees for shade and a stream for paddling. My two small dogs had a blast - the escape artist (mini poodle) ran the boundary and couldn't get through the fence. Thanks! Olivia R.

55A great experience. My reactive dog loved it and so did his younger brother. It was really easy to find. The fencing was great, and the horses are lovely. Cannot wait to visit again. Thank you 🤎Tailo D.

55I love this site for my reactive GSD. We didn't actually make it this time because of traffic, so I can't speak to the current conditions, but it's always been great in the past and we'll be back very soon.Michael K.

55My 2 dogs had such a great time. It was nice to be able to let my reactive dog roam around without having to worry about 2 dogs. There were even horses, that were two fences away. Will definitely be back, wish I lived closer. Dinushi S.

55Great location with many options for size of area your dog can be in. Area was well fenced, tidy, clean and had great sun. Easy access, good communication from host, and my boy had an awesome time. Shea W.

55This was the perfect spot! Plenty of space to run around and explore. The shallow water was great for keeping my dog cool and busy in the heat. Maybe beware of the dip to the water in the first paddock as it’s quite a steep drop off and some dogs may struggle getting up and down. We will definitely be back! Megan S.

55Our two pups had an absolute blast they had a big play and got to practice recall with our new pup as it was her first time off lead since we got her 3 weeks ago and she was in her element. They have poop bags available and a bin to discard of your dogs poop which is great. Highly recommend this place we will definitely be back.Tamika K.

55Great spot! Perfect for my nervous/anxious dog to just let loose and have fun off leash! There were two dogs in the property briefly welcoming us as you drive in but that was not a problem for us at all (as my dog doesn’t have any issues with other dogs) and they were moved inside pretty quick. My dog also found a gap in the fence big enough to slip through (we were warned) but again not an issue for us as I was able to easily get him back. My dog loved it and we will definitely come back to this spot! R B.

55Peppa and I love this place, but for me, it is disappointing to see today the amount of dog poop left out in the field. I mean frikken mountain's of the stuff!
Gummon people, we're lucky to have such a spot for our fur babies to run freely.
Lets not lose it because some people are too lazy to clean up after their babies. 😔Frances K.

55Such a great Sniffspot, they supply doggy poo bags and a hose to fill up the paddle pool. My dog has so much fun. I did notice that even though they supply the bags some people haven’t been cleaning up their dog poo’s, please pick up after your dog and respect the Sniffspot it’s really not that hard, there is even a bin to put the bags in at the gate! ☺️Debbie B.

55The dogs love their time at the farm. Even though it was hot, there was lots of shade and the creek cooled them down. There is a hose to wash them off before they get into the car. Other people need to be mindful and pick up their dogs poo, otherwise it was great. I’ll definitely be coming back! Monica S.

FAQ about our Auckland 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?

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 92% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Auckland 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 20 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
