55Exactly as advertised, perfect for a 30 minute run. Note if you have a bigger dog s/he might be able to jump the fence (as my pup tried to do). Emily P.

55I am a volunteer for HRA and I rented this spot for a mini field trip w a shelter dog. Was very easy to find and not too far from the shelter. My doggy that day was Suge and he really enjoyed the free space and lounging in the grass and eating leaves. The fences worked great for us and they left us great details about how to find it and descriptions of the space. I enjoyed lounging in a chair while Suge chewed his ball. I would rent again! Such a chill day w my deserving shelter dog. Thanks again! Betsy F.

55Beautiful yard! Easy to find, easy entry, clean, and so nice to have a hose and water dish on a warm day. The side yard was perfect for a game of fetch, and the back was great to play soccer with my herding pup. So happy to have a nice spot in the city to let my dogs get the zoomies out and get some fresh air off leash! Hosts were accommodating and responsive. Thank you!Rachel K.

FAQ about our East Riverdale 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?
