55We had a lovely time on Cathi’s property. It was our puppy’s first romp in the woods. He saw squirrels and his first deer! He looked back at us like “Did you see THAT?!!” Adorable! Our fence is being installed soon so this was a great way for our pup to get some off-leash time this weekend. It’s always wonderful to have firsts. Cathi’s offered us just that! :)Kristin W.

55First time using Sniffspot and had a great time. The instructions to access the dog park was easy to understand and the amenities (clean trash can, poop bags, water bowl, pitcher of water, and fragrance-free baby wipes) were amazing. A lot of area for our dog to run around and quiet. A bit of a drive if you're coming from the city, but would highly recommend this location!Christina K.

55Beautiful sniff spot location and perfect for 1st timers! Quiet and very few distractions for those who may have rather reactive dogs. My 9 month old pup was carefree, excited and burned off a ton of energy! We will definitely be back!Veda W.

55Lots of room for running and playing fetch! Two comfy chairs, fresh water for the dogs, poop bags in case you forgot some (oops), and a trash can. Our dogs loved it. They even enjoyed hearing the rooster crowLily M.

55We had a great hour at Dragonfly Hollow! Our dog, who does not get to be off-leash at home, had a ball! He swam in the pond and ran around like a banshee. It is a beautiful setting. We will definitely return!! Thanks so much!Elaine C.

55Dragonfly Hollow is the best find. Not only is the property beautiful, and a good distance from any roads, but Sarah is amazing. We will definitely be visiting again! Britni B.

55What a wonderful experience! I showed up a few minutes early and had a nice chat with the owner, Sarah. She is very kind and hospitable and an absolute dog lover. The area was absolutely beautiful and provided a lot of space for my girls to run but minimal opportunities for them to get into trouble! We will definitely be back!
As a heads up - if you are driving a sedan or a lower vehicle you might have some issues driving down the road. It’s not impossible but do so with caution! Stephanie M.

55First time using this app. Met Sarah briefly before letting my dog off leash. Gracious and welcoming. She went inside after offering some suggestions and assurances and her property was essentially ours for the next hour. Gorgeous spread. I could go on, but will crystallize it by saying this. You know how when you drive by farms with tons of land and think, ‘Man, my dog would love running in those fields’? Well, we did today. We had our own personal farm for an hour. He had a blast, smiling while sprinting like only a happy dog can do. Did my heart good to see my boy stretch his legs like he’s intended to do. Russell S.

55It was my first time using a sniff spot and it was fantastic! The host is so sweet and kind. My dog loved running around the fields and had a great time at the pond. The driveway is a bit bumpy but it's worth the fun. I would definitely recommend it and go again.Shana S.

FAQ about our Jarrettsville 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 Jarrettsville 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 408 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 36 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.
