55Our puppy Luna had the best time here. Gorgeous backyard with so much space to run around and sniff. Really appreciated the amenities of poop bags, toys and waste disposal.
We’ll definitely be back very soon! Liz H.

55A sniffspot with a pool and HUGE lawn is a rare find in the bay. The pool is COLD, refreshing for a dip but couldn't swim much this time of year. My small dog kept me on my toes. He was so excited to explore every nook and cranny in between zoomies. I brought a blanket to sit in the shade. I'm glad I did because there isn't much seating. However, your dog will likely keep you busy playing with the toys for dogs of all sizes. I rented for two hours, I could have stayed much longer. Definitely a good find. Connie C.

55A beautiful space in San Rafael! We enjoyed the large, lovely yard, beautiful lawn, gorgeous pool, and so many flowers in bloom. The entire area is fenced, and it was nice to relax and know that the dogs were safe. The host was friendly and communicative. Absolutely enjoyed the experience.Sue Ann R.

55This place is paradise. My dog had the best time ever. He spent the entire 2 hours playing like a maniac w sticks (yes they have a stick library 😆!), various ball toys, and swimming. He thoroughly enjoyed it and we did too. The host is wonderful, gives good instructions and does not interfere with visitors, which is great for my reactive doggo. I would give this Sniffspot 5 million stars! Rebecca C.

55Another great visit! I can't recommend this spot enough, especially this time of year when the foxtails are out in abundance. The lawn and garden are so well maintained. Not only did the dogs enjoy our visit, but I got to enjoy the beautiful roses in bloom. Thank you Karin for sharing your lovely garden. It's so nice to have a safe space for my little dogs.Angela R.

55My dogs remembered the spot from the last visit and were jumping with joy before we even got in the yard. They love it so much. This time they discovered the dog toy box and it was a huge hit. They made good use of their hour. Kathryn V.

55A lovely spot! Sunny and 70 when it was overcast and 58 in Sausalito. My dog had a great time — sniffing all around, rolling in the nice green grass in a flat yard, and playing fetch and tug with his favorite rope ball. Looking forward to return visits.Kelly K.

55Beautiful space, with different areas for exploration. Kieran (currently awaiting his forever home at Berkeley Humane) had a great time 💖.
There were lots of toys but Kieran loves his blue ball, so passed on those available. I would definitely return and recommend. Awesome hosts, beautiful views, very relaxing for the two legged guests also. Ellen J.

55Beautiful place and feels very safe and quiet for dogs with sensitivities to other dogs or people. Has given my dog a chance to swim that he would otherwise not get. We have been 3 times and every time was great. Love it! Rebecca C.

FAQ about our Mill Valley fully fenced 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
