55Huge open space with beautiful views. Stocked with tennis balls, water & poop bags for the dogs plus chairs for humans. Both sunny and shady areas to choose from.
Clear instructions on how to get there and swift communication from the owner when I had a question.
Highly recommend this spot for a dog that wants to get out and run free!Cindy C.

55Great spot with level ground which is amazing for my tennis ball loving dog! They can run without worry of holes. Freshly mowed grass and a beautiful setting. Ashleigh D.

55Plenty of room to run, clean, nice and private, instructions are detailed and easy to follow! Amenities were appreciated and as a fun bonus, the view of the cows on the other side of the fence was a nice treat for our pup! Can’t wait to book our next visit!Andrew P.

55Another fabulous day for Loki! He was so excited and ran for the first 10 minutes, after our cruise around the perimeter. Then some ball playing, pointing at birds, locating some people on the road talking (and Loki NOT barking!!! win!!) and then some training. All together an excellent day. For Loki, in training to show him the world is not frightening, this is a perfect place for him to experience all the distractions - wind, animals, smells, people - and see they will not hurt him. He even engaged his brain :)
Field was medium length green grass and dirt, not too muddy. Water available to wash off shoes if necessary. Fencing is secure and tall. Plenty of room for dog and human to have a great time. We will be back!!Kathleen R.

55Out of the 3 sniff spots we went to, this has by far been our favorite. You can tell they really want you to have a great time….I swear there’s 100 tennis balls. We will be regulars!Kayla M.

55Private, large and secure. Only saw cows (maybe 10ft from one side of fence) and neighbors pulling into garage. Pretty basic space but the features listed above made it everything we needed for our pup to have a good time. Christine W.

55Big grassy area, very well fenced. Looks like the grass had just been cut so nice and short for finding balls etc… No negatives for this place. It was great!Pip T.

55Couldn’t actually make it do to a last minute situation. The host was great about it. Obviously was our fault so no need for a refund but she was very understanding and said we where welcome back. Thanks for being great! Roxanne S.

55One of the brilliant qualities of this Sniffspot is the owner is always ahead of things. Spring time means foxtails grow, but Nancy is keeping grasses growth managed by mowing. It's a pleasure to enjoy this space without fear of later vet visits. Thank you Nancy. Penny L.

55Absolutely gorgeous idyllic setting in Petaluma, surrounded by farmland as far as you could see. The directions were clear and the park was easy to find. Although the property is right by the main road, it is a secluded country road with very few cars, and the fence seemed very secure. My two reactive dogs had tons of space to run, roam, and sniff: they had such a ball they were zonked for a solid day and a half. Host thoughtfully provided poo bags, balls, and fresh water for the dogs, and a couple of nice shady spots to rest. I am so grateful for this place, and will hopefully be back soon.Mona S.

55Great place! Will definitely be back. The fencing is nice and study/high in all places. I like the doggy bags hung around the fence line in case you forget them. We had an amazing time.Maggie L.

55Another great play session at Pepper Rd Play Park! Love coming here so much and my dog has a great time burning off his wild shepherd energy! This time around there was a cat close by in the field that got my dogs attention but it did not try to come close to the gate. There were children playing and yelling by the fence (the house’s backyard) which didn’t bother my dog at all luckily as he is not human reactive but just something to be aware of as there are children who live in the neighboring house next to the field that share the same fencing that could be bothersome for some nervous pups when they are at play :-) but nonetheless such an amazing experience!

55First time coming to this location and I was blown away! So easy to find and my pup had a great time! You can tell the location is very well taken care of/maintained. The grass was recently mowed and clean. No fox tails or noticeable holes that can cause injury for the pups. Fencing was secure and high, which made me feel safe letting my boy run free. Trash cans and dog bags provided, and also water which was nice! Really enjoyed our time here and we will be coming back for sure! Thank you! Megan L.

FAQ about our Nice 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?

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 29 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
