55Puppers and his people (My daughter was visiting) were delighted with Janine’s Sniff Spot! Just as the photos show, it is a lovely property, fully fenced with lawn and woods and gorgeous floral gardens amongst lush landscaping. We arrived 15 minutes late due to holiday weekend traffic, and Janine was so welcoming, telling us we could stay later as there wasn’t anybody booked after us. She said there were cold drinks and directed us to the back yard. Puppers wanted to swim but he’s never seen a pool before, so he barked at the dog toy we threw in, and couldn’t bring himself to retrieve it. We sat by the pool and before we knew it, the hour was up. There are poop bags, and a bin, and dog toys. We borrowed a hose to rinse off Puppers who found mud in the woods after a weekend of torrential rains. We’ll be back. A great Sniff Spot! Sarah L.

55Janine’s spot is amazing! I was running late and she was super accommodating in letting me and my pup stay a full hour. She has tons of beautiful flowers in her yard, so if your dog enjoys smelling them like mine does, they’ll love it! Nicole B.

55The pups had a great time! Location is a slightly remote (which is a plus for us) but very easy to find. The yard is large and beautifully maintained and we had everything we needed. It was a warmer day so it was lovely to have some shady spots too. Our dogs mostly just enjoyed sniffing and exploring! It was a fun k-9 adventure, especially for our newest rescue who enjoyed running around off-leash. We’ll be back. Thanks for having us Janine! 😊Diana F.

55Quiet spot with plenty of room for our dog to run and play. There is a pool for swims and the owner even provided towels to dry the dog off. Great experience for off leash fun!Sharon B.

55We loved our time at Janine's place! My dogs made sure that not an inch of the yard was unexplored, some hide and seek under the screened in porch, frog hunting in the fenced off frog pond (the boundary fence was more than secure - this was just a small one around the little pond), and of course some swimming in the actual pool! Janine was so pleasant in all of our interactions and goes above and beyond as a host. We'll definitely be back!Karen C.

55We had such fun here- it’s like a dog resort: a pool, a lovely yard, water, toys, treats, poop bags, a hose to rinse off. And Janine is an angel! She made us feel so welcome. The dogs had a blast swimming, playing on the sprinkler mat, and running around and investigating the yard. Thank you, Janine! Kristin H.

55Absolutely amazing! We visited with our two dogs. Everything was beautiful, clean and safe. It was my younger dogs first time learning to swim and with her little life jacket and some help from myself she got in the pool and did great. An awesome experience overall. I am super jealous of this backyard (small slice of heaven) and wish that we owned this amazing setup. The host thinks of everything and we had homemade dog treats and drinks for the way home. Thank you so much for sharing. Katharine C.

55We are so grateful for this sniff spot. My dogs had the best time. They explored, played, ran, swam, chased bubbles.. it was just everything they could have hoped for. Not to mention that the host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and to make sure we had everything we needed. We will be making this a regular visit from now on! Lili L.

55Maggie the Labs Private Dog Park and Pool is an absolute paradise! The space is gorgeous and Janine does everything in her power to make this a special experience for the dogs and their people. There were dog toys galore and a water bowl and bed for the dogs to enjoy. There was music playing and drinks available for us. We were able to enjoy the pool while Vlad explored. We tried to get him to swim, but he wasn’t ready yet. Maybe next time! And our favorite part is that Janine donates the proceeds to animal rescues. We will definitely be back!Laura S.

55If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I had high expectations after reading other reviews and this surpassed them. I can't believe how nice it was. Melodie answered all my questions almost instantly when I booked it. This will hopefully become a weekly or bi-weekly event for Rudy and I. John H.

55We had a wonderful time here this morning! The snow made the second driveway a little more difficult to find—I didn't realize where I needed to turn until I was driving past it, but I just doubled back and all was fine. The play area is huge and securely fenced, with all sorts of toys and activities for dogs—Clint just wanted to trot around and sniff everything, but it's great to have so many other options available. The barn was so cozy and well-kept, and the outhouse was a bit of a surprise but definitely a welcome one! I also appreciated the multiple stations that made picking up and disposing of dog poo so easy. Our fenced-in yard at home is quite small, so I'm delighted to find a place where I can bring Clint to run around safely off-leash without having to worry about how he will react to the presence of other dogs. We definitely plan to return!Hillary I.

FAQ about our Madbury 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 Madbury 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 159 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 11 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.
