55I booked this for a meet-up with a potential adopter of my foster dog - she was over from E Washington, and I was coming from Port Townsend. I knew on a sunny Saturday public parks would be crowded, with too many distractions, so I decided to give SniffSpot a try! Kim's place was great! Neat and tidy, a nice seating area (though we didn't use it), a nice size dog pool (which my dog DID enjoy!) - it was a perfect private location for an off-leash meet-and-greet! Would definitely book this again and recommend.
Note: I thought I had ordered the pupsicles, and was disappointed not to find them. NO FAULT OF KIM'S!! This was a booking glitch - I had added it, but apparently when I changed the reservation from 1 hr to 1.5 hrs, the add-on dropped off. Again, this was an issue with the booking system, not Kim!! I mention it only as a heads-up for others.
Thanks for a great visit, Kim!Diane A.

55This is a wonderful addition to the SniffSpot community! Today was our second visit, and we had an excellent time. The space is clean, comfortable (including really nice seating for those of us humans who aren’t 20 and whose knees can’t deal with lawn chairs that are low-slung or rickety), and large enough for fetch and zoomies. The fencing is private, solid, and high enough for large dogs. There is lots of shade from mature trees, which my heat-intolerant husky girl really appreciates. The pool is fantastic. (The water looks a little murky in the photos, but that’s because my girl was hopping in and out and washing toys in it. It was crystal clear when we arrived). Parking and access are effortless. My pup and I are very grateful for this new place. Kathleen F.

55Our dogs had a blast taking in all the smells and then chasing some tennis balls. The yard had great shade and was clean. We will definitely be brining our dogs back to have a change of scenery. Erika T.

55Great place for German Shepherd Dogs that need space too run but not too large of yard that it drains your energy chasing after them plus a dog pool which my Roxy especially enjoys and Max loves drinking from!Mike F.

55Very nice, fully fenced. Quiet.
Hosts put out dog toys, but we come with our own so didn’t check them out.
I did not hear, dogs or people while there. It is a neighborhood and may be noisier at other times, but set back from the road with a wood privacy fence. Nice!
I plan to go again.
Thx KimGeorgia W.

55The big open yard was awesome. Goblin loved racing circles around, chasing the ball.
The umbrella was an excellent touch! I'd forgotten mine and was grateful to have it when it started raining!Cheyanne C.

55Loved this spot for our cattle dog who loves to run and play fetch! Very easy to find and lots of space! Also loved the provided water and toys to use while there. Fence was high and the yard felt very private for our dog who gets easily distracted by noise and is reactive to seeing other dogs. Will definitely visit again! Grace D.

FAQ about our Normandy Park 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Normandy Park 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 294 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 54 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.
