What people say about dog parks around Madison, Wisconsin

Miranda L.

March 2023

We had such a wonderful time with our three pups. Easy access to the yard, clear instructions. Beautiful large yard with secure fence. Toys, water, poop bags, and comfy spots to sit. We will visit again!

Hannah D.

March 2023

This is a great spot! We really liked that the yard was big and open with plenty of space for playing ball, frisbee, and running around. The host also left out thoughtful accommodations like water and a fun selection of toys. The only dogs we could hear were waking past on a sidewalk outside the fence, which our dogs barely noticed.

Jessica M.

Every time we pull up, my pup knows he gets to run and sniff around! Plenty of open space and toys. The host is always pleasant and openly communicates any necessary information. Great spot!

Katherine M.

July 2023

Very spacious and there was toy and water for the pups! My dogs and I had a great time!

Our puppy absolutely loved playing here! It's a large area with plenty of shade. Stocked with all the supplies you could need, along with toys. We didn't come across any sights of others dogs or humans. I would highly recommend!

Great as always. I will bring a new squeaker toy at our next visit - Ted somehow broke the new squeaker toy 5 minutes after getting it. 🫣

September 2023

This was our first time here! We had so much fun (even with the light rain)! Plenty of room to play frisbee and get some running in, and ample room for relaxation. We’ll definitely be back!

A really great spot! Clean backyard with lots of shade. My dog had so much room for zoomies and sniffs. All amenities were exactly as described for the dogs and owners.

Alice B.

Newly adopted pup had a great time running around in the big yard. He LOVED the spikey balls they provided. Will definitely come back!

Abby Q.

Great yard!! We rented the yard during our road trip and our Dogs had a great time exploring and playing!

Elizabeth J.

October 2023

Great space for 2 young dogs to run and play. Fresh water, clean toys, clean towel (my favorite,Norwex!) and a 30 minute slot. We will be regulars, for sure! Thank you!

Chelsea S.

October 2023

Perfect spot! Plenty of room for my dog to run, plus some great toys and fresh water for her, and a hammock for me. Extra beautiful in the fall!

Carolyn G.

November 2023

Such a perfect place to bring your dog! Totally enclosed with a wooden 6’ fence, so very private (which is so nice for reactive dogs!!). It was neat and clean, with water, poo bags, and toys left out. There’s also a plastic pool that would be fun, in warm weather. My granddog had so much fun! I look forward to returning!

Ann K.

We had a great time in Charles’ yard! It’s a huge and gorgeous space with toys, water and nice seating area. Thanks!

Diana M.

November 2023

This was our first Sniff spot experience. It was a wonderful location with clear directions. The taller fence gave us piece of mind. Our dog loved looking up at the trees at the squirrels.

Jordann M.

December 2023

A quiet, safe space for our pup to run! Fully fenced, with plenty of privacy from the road/sidewalk on the other side. This allowed our nervous dog to hear and smell other dogs walking by, without having to see them. Great communication from Charles as well. We will definitely be back.

Cece S.

Spacious green yard with trees is fully fenced. Owner graciously supplied H2O, toys, poop bucket and a towel. There are chairs to sit on in this pleasant spot

Nancy U.

February 2024

This is a very nice spot that is just as described. Very secure, very safe. The host leaves several extras such as towels, blanket, water, etc. It was sprinkling when I arrived and he had put everything under an overhang to keep it dry. Very considerate.

Kelly N.

March 2024

Super clean and open space, toys, water and poop bags provided. I have a small puppy so there were a couple of spots under the fence that she may have been able to squeeze through but other than that, a solid wood fence for great privacy.

Nicki L.

March 2024

Spacious yard, my boy was so happy to run around and chase his ball, though there were lots of toys to choose from! This was a great first experience for us.

FAQ about our Madison 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.
