55Such a great, big space! The dogs had the best time! There was a cat hanging around, which wasn’t a problem for us but something to be aware of if you have a dog with a really high prey drive. Kailyn L.

55Great spot! Was a bit apprehensive since the hosts home is in the center of the spot but we didn’t have any interactions with them. The fence was secure and had no problems keeping my three boys inside. These spot felt super spacious and there was so much room for everyone to run around and sniff! A really great visit!Thomas R.

55Wonderful Sniffspot! Easy to find, well-marked with an official Sniffspot sign at the gate, and plenty of parking. The fully-fenced yard is secure and clean; there are toys (lots of different ball sizes, tug, Chuckits, frisbees, etc), poop bags, bug spray, and other helpful amenities upon entering the gate.
My two dogs had a fun time exploring and running around here! One is a senior and the other is an energetic 4-year old; this wide, open Sniffspot with fruit trees and a small hill was perfect for both dogs. Rona A.

55We love this spot! It’s such a big wide open space to explore and run and play. We loved the chairs and bench under the shady trees, so we could take a break out of the sunshine. Maro S.

55We had a terrific visit. The spot has lots of open room for running but also a wild area and trees to explore and sniff. The host was gracious about our choice to book an early arrival time to beat the heat. We hope to return soon!Amy B.

55Went late at night and brought a few lights so was perfect. The host is so accommodating I can’t say enough good things about her. She really wants everyone and their pup to enjoy her space, just so great. Always responds right away even when it’s late evening. Katie K.

55Very spacious area for my large pup to run around and chase tennis balls. No animal or people distractions. Great for dogs that get overwhelmed by those things. Loved the space and will be back!Jessica Q.

55My dog is sooo picky about spots and she loved this one! She’s an older gal who only needs about 15 minutes and here she sniffed the whole time! She even ran around and rolled in the grass. We felt very safe from triggers and in the fenced in area. Thank you! We’ll be back. Page W.

55The space was bigger than it looks in photos and well-fenced. I was surprised by how many toys there were - my dog immediately fell in love with one of the herding balls and was sad to leave it. Great place to tire him out. Very clean. Hayley K.

55Due to the time of year and lots of dogs playing it’s a bit dry and dusty.
We also saw a dog in the yard next door which we have never seen before. It completely ignored our dogs and they it. Just FYI for any sight reactive dogs. Terri S.

55Our dogs had a great time here! They were exhausted after about 40 minutes. Lots got them to explore and sniff, as well as a variety of toys to play with. We went later in the evening on a weeknight, and it was very calm and quiet in the neighborhood. Definitely will come back in the future! Christine + Jake H.

55We had such a lovely morning here! Very quiet early morning on a weekend. Tons of toys my pup loved digging through. Nice trees and natural areas throughout the yard that my dog loved to explore and roll in. There is visibility to neighbors and the street but we didn't see anyone the whole time we were there. We'll be back!Nikki C.

FAQ about our Ilwaco 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.
