55This is a really lovely new spot! It's a good sized yard with plenty of room to run around and throw a ball. This is also a great place for either confident or pups at a medium difficulty for desensitization to various sounds of living like nearby families, dogs seen/heard at a distance, and general neighborhood noises. The only negative about the place is the bugs however they do provide bug spray.Catherine S.

55This space is great for the right dog and priced at a great rate! It didn’t work for our six tiny dogs. There were some small gaps in the wire that our 2.5 dogs could fit through but there is enough stuff (like logs) to block these spots and I know this isn’t a common problem for the average dog guardian but I wanted to mention it for any tiny dog guardians. There were also many places for the dogs to run under or behind and so we were constantly looking for our dogs, which is not typically an issue we have at other sniffspots. I don’t think that would be a problem for non-tiny dog guardians (plus we have six!)There were also loads of deer which didn’t bother our dogs but it’s something I wanted to mention for reactive dogs. Again, this spot seems like it would be so much fun for the right dog though and it was priced right. Jennifer L.

55Our pups ADORE this spot! The yard is spacious enough for lots of full on zoomies, fun areas to sniff and explore among the bushes, and the pool is fantastic. The yard is always exceptionally clean, and though we have no use for human pool supplies, the host always has floaters and other fun stuff out. Access to the deck (private) is blocked off well, there’s always a bowl of water out, and a small trash can. Easy in and out through the gate. Locks and fence are secure. Natalie P.

55This is a great SniffSpot with well maintained grass - no bare spots or mud at all! My pup was very interested in the rooster and sheep sounds and we saw a fox for some added sniffs. It is a little buggy with no wind but with some bug spray it wasn’t too bad. Channing S.

55Helen’s place is clearly very well maintained. The pool area and grass area were extremely clean and manicured. My dog and his doggy friend had a lot of fun running around and jumping into the pool. I would definitely recommend Helens place!Lilly W.

55Great spot! It was my first time using this app and the host was very kind and responsive. I stupidly forgot to bring my dogs toys but luckily the host had left some toys so we had a great time. My puppy was scared of the pool which is hilarious since she swims in lakes on hikes all the time but us humans loved the pool and it was with the extra $50!Michelle K.

55My dog Ripley enjoyed the quiet and beautiful scenery. There was plenty to sniff and explore, and also enough space to get some laps and fetch in. We rented the pool and it was clean, smelled like it was upkept but also not too chemically, so I felt okay letting my dog swim. Some toys were left out for us to use and I only saw one stray poo that I just went ahead and picked up because it was close. There were some gnats out there but my sunglasses and the pool did a good job of keeping them off. Beautifully kept space. Caitlin R.

55This one is what you hope and wish every Sniffspot experience would be like. Communicative host, clean property, thoughtful details like pet wipes, a water bowl, poo bags and a trash can. Great grass for dogs to run and roll in with comfortable seating for the hoomans. We hope to return soon. Lori H.

55This is an amazing spot! It's incredibly clean, has a soft grassy lawn area that's large enough to play a great game of fetch, the fencing is all secure, it has comfortable chairs, toys, and it's a lovely calm area without traffic noises. My dog had a blast. Hands down the best spot we've been to so far. Jessica G.

FAQ About North Potomac 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.

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.
