55My two dogs had a great time at this spot! We mostly stayed in one corner that felt the most secure in terms of fencing, but we walked around the pond a few times because they are relatively good at staying near me. I wasn’t expecting them to get into the pond, but one of them surprised me and decided to lie down in the shallow area. Luckily the host provided towels for drying off :) we will be back!Mickie T.

55**Sniff Spot Review**
We had an awesome time at this gorgeous Sniff Spot facility! It's an absolutely cool little place to hang out with the dogs. There’s only one thing the facility is missing, and they clearly let you know from the get-go: unfortunately, it is not completely fenced off. However, this is not a dealbreaker for our awesome pack. The host is amazing—thank you so much for taking great care of our canines. We appreciate you and will be back in the future!

55It was the perfect size to run around and play but not so large that you would worry about your pup being somewhere they shouldn’t be. The hose was great and had an attachment that my pup loved to play in. Grass was overall well maintained and large hole free. The property was clean and in a quiet area. If your pup loves the pool then this is a 10/10 place to go.Anthony R.

55This yard is AWESOME! Kim is quick with responses to questions and our dogs had an absolutely blast swimming and running around. We are so thankful for an option like this. The yard is beautiful, well kept, and large. The pool was a great temp and our dog kept begging for more frisbee throws. The steps for the pool were easy for our dogs to find and they were large enough for both to be on comfortably. We will absolutely be back and absolutely would recommend Kim’s yard!Breanne C.

55It was very spacious for my dog to play fetch both in the pool and out in the yard. Also has shaded areas which is a plus. Very nice to leave a cold water bottle outside for the owner as well as a dog bowl for the pet. Definitely recommendRuby S.

55We had an amazing time! Kim was such a wonderful and kind host, and her backyard is stunning. It was my pups' first time swimming in a pool, and they were yipping with excitement. There was also plenty of grass for them to run around. It truly couldn’t have been a better experience. Thank you for sharing your beautiful backyard with us, Kim!Liz C.

55Kim’s yard and pool is lovely. There were plenty of shady places to sit. The pool was sparkling clean. My senior (12 years old and still going strong) GSD had never been swimming before, so I thought it might be a nice change of activity for her. She did get in the water a few times to retrieve her balls, but mostly enjoyed the grass and sniffing every square inch of the yard. I highly recommend Kim’s yard and pool. 😊Mary D.

FAQ about our Elk Grove 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Elk Grove 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 181 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 16 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.
