55I love Heather's wonderful Private Dog Park.
Unfortunately, it proved to be too hot outside for my Stella to stay long today but I filled the doggie pool with some water and Heather also had a mister hooked up on a canopy providing a great shady area to cool off. Now Stella didn't really get into that today, I guess she is spoiled with AC... ha! But it was all so great, and we will be back! Mari B.

55Heather is a very friendly and responsive host, typically answering questions within minutes! On this visit, I didn't bring our pup - because she is very frightened of new situations and I wanted to get the "lay of the land" before exposing her. The space is open with mowed grass and shade on the side of the house. The fence looks new and seems very secure. I found it to be relatively quiet apart from the usual lawn mowers. I think it will work well for our dog and I look forward to bringing her soon!Annie K.

55Even in a Honda Civic we were able to by pass the pot holes to a very nice backyard. Our boy is very anxious and reactive to other dogs. It’s big enough for him to have his big zoomies and small enough to train with him. Plenty of dogs toys for him to play with and even a little kiddie pool to cool down. Will be back again! ❤️Mariella G.

55Today's adventure was all about the new smells that were brought out by all the rain we've had lately. It was an endless treasure chest of exciting scents, not to mention there were baby lizards everywhere, which was a huge bonus for Maisie, the Lizard Queen. 🦎🐶🫶Charly M.

55It was clean and had lots of toys. The only thing I would say to beware of is her neighbor’s small dog sometimes roams around. It’s no fault of hers but if your pet is reactive like mines just be careful before you let your dogs out. The dog eventually went away on their own. All in all, great experience!Miley G.

FAQ about our Jacksonville Beach 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. 99% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Jacksonville Beach 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 157 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 22 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.
