55My dogs and I had a lovely hour visit this afternoon at a Private dog area in Forest Hill. We could not have asked for nicer weather. It was our first visit to this spot. We entered a private driveway at the end of a cul-de-sac and about 1/4 of a mile in the drive opens to a beautiful home and nice large spot for dogs to run, play, and investigate. The home owner, Linette came out to greet me and my dogs. She was friendly and did a wonderful job making us feel welcome. In the shade, she had a large patio umbrella, wicker/rattan chair and small table set up for us. On the table, she provided a large metal dog bowl, cold water bottle, and a small storage bag with dog treats, doody bags, and map of the spot. Immediately, my dogs were ready to check everything out. Linette was super nice and did not mind when my dogs, Tyson and Chloe decided to check out her garage and patio. There was a pool but it was fenced/gated so dogs would not wander in. The yard backs to woods and my furbabies did find a path to wander onto and sniff around. My dogs enjoyed their off leash time and towards the end of the hour they were relaxing in the grass.
As we were leaving, we were able to meet 2 more super nice family members. They gave my dogs lots of attention and Tyson was ready to move in.
I am very happy I found and visited this gem of a spot today. I will definitely be back. Thank you to Linette and her family for allowing us to enjoy their beautiful property. Rita C.

55Beautiful day and large yard for my dogs to play. I love that it is so private and quiet. The host graciously provided dog bowl, water, dog treats, poo bag, and sanitizing wipe… everything a dog parent would need. My dogs ran to greet the owners once they saw them. Luckily, they love dogs and gave mine the attention they wanted. My dogs rolled in the leaves and enjoyed using their keen sense of smell to check things out. Truly a great spot!!Rita C.

55My dogs enjoyed a fun day of play today. The grass was mowed short, the yard was clean, and thankfully the temperature was in the the low 50’s. The owner provided us with a clean bowl, bottle of water, and a goody bag. We always feel so welcome when we come!! We will definitely come again!!Rita C.

55Beautiful, well-kept run in the country -- huge open skies overhead.
Loved the thoughtful set-up. We chilled under the huge shade tree while our dogs had a blast running and running.
5+ out of 5 for chill vibe and thoughtful hosts!

55Beautiful sniffspot! Very clean and peaceful. We saw chickens and pigs, so if you have a reactive dog that is something to take into consideration. Zooey Wasn’t bothered by them at all, will absolutely come back!Emma G.

55This was our first time using Sniff Spot. We set up a play date for our puppy and the two had a great time. The host added extra touches like a pitcher of water. It’s such a peaceful spot for dogs to get some energy out. We’ll definitely be back!Jillian B.

55This was a very nice place. We drove 50 minutes to take my 2 pitbulls and they both seemed to have a great time. They had water, wipes and poo bags as well as a trash can to dispose of it. There was some poop in the grass which IMO is at the fault of the people who use this place not the person who let's us use their property. So please clean up after your pet peeps! We will definitely be back when the weather is nice next year. Nina G.

FAQ about our Forest Hill 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 Forest Hill 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 418 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 36 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
