55My 2 big boys are total sniffers so this location was heaven for them. Our puppy was so free to run and exhaust himself. They did want to keep going right up to the house to say hi😬 So much room to roam, sprint, extremely clean and a cute, welcoming sitting area. We would absolutely come back and definitely worth a visit. Imaikalani R.

55My dogs absolutely love this spot. To be able to watch a Malinois run at full speed for a ball is magical. The girls love watching the chickens and sniffing the large amount of space this location has. You won’t be sorry giving this spot a visit. The hosts are lovely and worth driving to visit. They go above and beyond to make sure you feel welcome. Lindsey F.

55Amazing spot. Very beautiful and relaxing. It may be difficult to keep a close eye on your dog due to the size and layout of the property. Plenty of toys, bags, and water provided. Chickens can sometimes be a problem for my dog, but this coop is very secure, enough so that he quickly lost interest. We’ll be back! Melinda C.

FAQ about our El Cajon 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the El Cajon 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 151 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 15 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.
