55A beautiful spot with fair amount of shades and sun. Very clean relaxing atmosphere. Being able to release our very excited pups off leash safely from the driveway is a plus. Our pups find the hilly landscape an interesting terrain to run, sniff and explore. We ended the day with two exhililarated and happy malamutes. Will definitely be back for more visits. Thanks for hosting.Le L.

55 First time using Sniffspot with both my dogs. Our Mugsy doesn’t do great on a leash, so this was perfect for him to be in a new environment for fresh sniffs and more room to roam. It was fun to watch them just enjoy playing around the yard which is very spacious. A lot of interesting trees, plants for them to sniff. We are definitely going again.
The host was very responsive to all my questions. Danielle B.

55I brought our foster dog for a meet and greet with potential adopters and Snow’s spot was perfect! It’s lots of land for them to run and explore with very secure fencing. Plus they have a larger yard and a smaller yard that makes it perfect for dogs meeting for the first time to make friends or for smaller dogs in the smaller yard and bigger dogs in the bigger yard. She also had a kiddie pool setup and water bowls and toys. Plus there is a playground for kids and a cool tree swing for people. It’s a beautiful spot with lots of beautiful landscaping and plenty of shade. We will definitely be back! Jill B.

55Great yard and well maintained! If you have a dog-reactive dog, stay to the inner yard as neighbors do walk their dogs along the street the outer yard bumps up to. But there’s plenty of space and it let Squee have a fun hour of sniffs and playing Liesl K.

55We fell in love with Snow's beautiful property. Our 3 dogs ran and played nonstop while we were there. There was so much space for them to run and sniff and catch balls ... they had a blast! The property is totally enclosed and provides a large, safe area for the dogs to exercise and explore. It was a beautiful day and we all enjoyed our visit and can't wait to return. Linda S.

55Beautiful, clean yard! A lot of space to run and explore. My dog loved it! We had no issues with holes in the fence. There were occasionally other dogs walking by on leashes with their owners past the road, but the fence is secure so that your dog can’t run out. Easy, clear instructions for entering as well! We will be visiting again! Thank you! Samantha K.

55Really great spot, plenty of space for dogs to run, plenty of landscape features to make it interesting. In early autumn one of the trees does drop spiky things, but it’s in a small part of the yard and easily avoided. Rachel K.

FAQ about our Hockessin 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 Hockessin 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 575 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 42 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.
