55Our Australian Shepherd loved running in the spacious fenced-in backyard. The two neighbor dogs did want to join in on the play. They barked and jumped over the fence next door. However, we were able to leash our dog and move him to the corner of the backyard until the neighbor was able to retrieve his dogs. Once the other dogs were brought inside our dog continued to enjoy the space. Abbie G.

55My senior loved sniffing everything and did a few laps with a big smile. My younger dogs enjoyed some open space running. They managed to find something dead to roll in which made a stinky ride home but I'm sure it was a huge bonus for them! They are sound asleep now.Steph F.

FAQ about our Des Moines fully fenced 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
