55Awesome sniffspot experience! There was so much to see and do, from feeding (and chasing) the ducks to the numerous hammocks and swings to the trails around the pond. We had a great time and even ran into the owner who was super nice. I also ran into a neighbor and he was also very sweet! I highly recommend this sniffspot if you have a reactive dog or one who needs to burn off lots of energy. We booked an hour but could have stayed all day. We will definitely be back!Julie S.

55This is a really fun sniffspot. The property and pond are HUGE, and my dog loved exploring. People with reactive dogs, be aware: there is a trail that passes along the back (fenced) edge of the property where we did see a few people and dogs, so you may want to keep an eye out to manage barking or fence fighting. Really cool place overall, we will definitely be back! :) Arabella R.

55Seriously this place is such a gem! My dog loved swimming and exploring and there were so many places for us humans to sit and enjoy as well. Easy to find, easy to follow directions. I will definitely be coming back here!Kristina H.

55Beautiful spot with so many fun things to explore. Hammocks, tire swings, rock climbing wall, archery, and duck feeding! We had an absolute blast. There were a lot of very nice people milling about. The side gate was open and my dog got out briefly, so maybe check that it's closed before you let them loose if you have a runner. We had a beautiful afternoon stroll around the pond and the dogs were so dirty and exhausted! Tara A.

55Beautiful property. Our dogs had a great time swimming. There is a home on the far end with people within the interior of the property. Just to be aware of it in the case your dog doesn’t have good recall. We moved back to the other end when they arrived. Otherwise, the owner is super nice. It was great to have a hose to rinse the dogs off. Ty!Gabby K.

55This is a lovely property with lots to sniff. Plus your dog can swim, jump off the docks, run, and check out the ducks. There are hammocks, a tire swing, regular swing, bathrooms and more. We will be going back a lot! Thanks for making your property available!

55Great space, has almost like a mini summer camp feel with boats, hammocks, swings. We were there for 1.5 hours and it was perfect for my dogs. We did see a few people during our time there. I walked around the found several times while my dogs were in and out of the water. Jennifer N.

55Great spot! There were people visible on the property, but the space is so big we were able to avoid them. Our pup was so intrigued by the ducks and chicks that he didn’t mind at all! Booked on fairly short notice and had no issues.Trevor M.

55Such a great spot! Our dogs love it here. The pond has ducks that our younger dog swims and chases. There is a fence at the end of the property with people and dogs walking, so just keep that in mind if you have reactive dogs. There were also some people that arrived towards the end of our time that seemed to be going fishing in the pond. Cris & Eik M.

55This place was great! They had towels out near the hose off station and a bucket of toys which was super thoughtful. Next time I’d bring biodegradable dog shampoo for a quick wash before leaving. We had a great time and I definitely recommend this location. Kallen S.

55It’s a really great spot! They mentioned there may be Airbnb guests in the back so I stayed away from there but a woman came out of the front house so I did end up leashing my dog. Overall a great property though! Kristen S.

55This place has a nice pond with lots of ducks. My dog went nuts and had so much fun swimming around, trying to chase the ducks. We saw 2 people while we were there but for the most part we had a lot of privacy. Cam H.

FAQ about our El Centro dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
