We had a great time! The space was wide open for lots of playing and roaming around. Host was so accommodating- we arrived on a rainy morning and there was an umbrella, towel, water and treats waiting for us. Such a lovely experience! Thank you for having us ☺️

FAQ about our Gardner 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.
