55This spot is really fun! There are lots of different activities so ideal if you are looking for opportunities for enrichment. It was raining pretty hard when we went so we didn’t do everything but will definitely be back to try more things!
There was a dog next door barking at us for a little bit, but there are multiple fence lines in place which provided excellent distance and I was able to use it as a training opportunity with my reactive dog.
Both dogs loved the catwalk and there is a fun little bridge they went over and a tiny beginner teeter totter. Both of my dogs tend to be a little nervous so the chance to try new obstacles helps build their confidence and the experience is priceless.
This really is a great spot and I can’t wait go to back and try more things!
It was very clean also! Kimberly D.

55We had lots of fun visiting here again! This spot is full of wonderful confidence building opportunities and this time my dogs even ventured on to the trampoline. The goats and pigs can out to say hello and the double fenceline gave my dogs a good chance to see and hear and smell something new from a safe distance. The dogs played on the catwalk and the little bridge and went over the jump in addition to experiencing the new surface of the trampoline. My dogs can be nervous about new things and it’s wonderful to be able to practice managing new things in a safe environment. This is a great spot! Kimberly D.

55This is a great spot!! Lots of sniffs and mental stimulation for the pups. The only thing I’d mention, is it maybe a little much for an anxious dog. One of mine is very anxious and it was a lot for her, but I’m planning on bringing her back to build her confidence. My other two LOVED it. It’s very nice and fun for them. Adri B.

55This spot was great! It was clean, easy to access and lots of activities for all types of dogs. There are clearly marked bins for waste disposal, a fresh water spicket, shade areas, places to sit while your dogs explore. My dogs were particularly interested in the pigs and goats on the other side of the fence. Will definitely use this spot again.Robert B.

55This was our first Sniffspot experience, and it was fantastic! Our dog, Oscar, had a blast exploring the yards, watching the farm animals, and enjoying all the doggy amenities. The space was very clean, with plenty of toys and activities. Joanne obviously put a lot of thought into her space, and we look forward to returning!Jill R.

55My dogs had so much fun here. They played a little fetch, did the obstacles, and sniffed all the smells. I’ve said it before, but oh my gosh, working little obstacles is such a great confidence builder. They were a little nervous about the farm animals even though we have been there before but redirected easily to all the other fun activities. The double fenceline is so great. My little girl decided the trampoline was the dog bed she has been waiting for her entire life. They were exhausted afterwards from using their brains so much which is the best kind of tired.
Also, the flowers in the yard are blooming and there are a couple of spots that are perfect for really pretty pictures if you can get your dogs to hold still, which I could not. Kimberly D.

55We had another really fun visit! This time we did the bath add on, but I asked Joanne if we could just have a tub of water instead of bath supplies and she was so accommodating and wonderful about it! My dogs just love climbing in tubs of water and laying down and it was so fun for them to get to splash around on top of all the fun things they usually do. This is such a great spot for building a relationship with your dogs.
It was supposed to be a pretty warm day, but with the breeze and the big sun shade that is up, it was just perfect. I’m so grateful to Joanne for accommodating us and being so lovely about wanting dogs to have the most fun experience possible! Kimberly D.

55Our pups loved this place with all the agility obstacles which they’ve never done before. Also seeing the farm animals which one hasn’t encountered any before so it was nice to see how she reacted to them. They had so much fun will definitely book another visit Nikki S.

55We brought our small dog Nala to Joanne’s Private Dog Park for her first Sniffspot visit yesterday. As a recent rescue, she’s still a bit reactive and anxious, so a Sniffspot seemed like a great concept. She did well and enjoyed her first visit. There are two separate, fully fenced-in yards with toys, agility equipment, water, and chairs for the people. They even brought Nala treats. Mostly she wanted to track down all the smells and bounce from one yard to the other. We did get her to use the equipment a little. By the end of our time she was worn out from all the excitement! We’ll definitely be back. Marla A.

55This is fantastic property! So grateful!!
We played ball and hunted for lizards (didn’t catch any).
I parked on the side and was able to walk pretty much directly right in the big, side gate. Super easy!Chandler P.

FAQ about our Nipomo 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.
