55What a fabulous property! I went with both my dogs, one being reactive & I was a bit nervous because there are neighbouring dogs but Shawna was fantastic & sent me videos of the grounds & the areas to avoid. We ended up exploring every inch of the property including all the trails and the creek. Mason is a senior dog and has mobility issues & was happily able to do all the areas. I left with two happy, tired dogs. We will definitely be back!Rebecca L.

55Shawna and Hayden are such lovely hosts! A very thoughtfully arranged Sniffspot that we will definitely return to. The property is gorgeous, quiet, and away from roads and other houses and there are some trails and a small creek to explore. Not fenced but if you’re comfortable with a long line or have an off leash dog (with bomb proof recall even from wildlife) still a wonderful place for dogs and their humans to enjoy a little peace and relaxed fun.

55Shawna was so great - sends videos to describe the different areas ahead of time, and areas to avoid if your dog is anxious about other dogs. And the space is amazing!!!! My dogs had a wonderful time running and sniffing around. We will definitely be back!!!Cait W.

55It was a nice place to visit! My pups love running and chasing each other and were tired out quickly. Hope they could tie out some ribbons at the boundary as we we’re not sure if we entered into their neighbor’s place.anita l.

55Nes and I had a great time! She enjoyed the field and trails. There were less trails than I expected, but we still had fun and spent a bit more time in the field. If your dog has a solid recall then the field is a great place to let them run around!Daniela F.

55Such a great space! Shawna was a great host, so communicative when I had questions. Very well kept. Has garbage and bags if you run out. I have a fear reactive dog who’s recall is 90% and I felt fully secure and safe to have him off leash the whole time. Robin P.

FAQ about our Garibaldi Highlands 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.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Garibaldi Highlands area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog field is Ballard-Fenced-Yard-Near-Locks. The most expensive dog field is Ballard-Fenced-Yard-Near-Locks. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
