55What a great big yard to play in with your dogs located in a safe, quiet neighborhood. Lots of areas for the dogs to explore and completely fenced off. We stayed the full hour and our dogs didn’t want to leave. Plenty of toys to play with and water for the dogs to drink. We had the pleasure of meeting Robert and his wife along with their dog Lucy, who is a sweet and mellow lab. Very nice couple that are easy to talk with. It was a great experience overall that left my dogs tired and happy! Joelle D.

55What a lovely oasis! The yard is spacious and safe- it is completely fenced in. Lots of spots to sniff & explore. Fresh water, toys, and waste bags/disposal were available.
Marsha and her dog Lucy were gracious and welcoming. Our girl is pretty reactive, so they gave us plenty of room to relax. De K.

55My pup and I would rate this a ‘10’ if it went that high! For my nervous shy shelter pup, Bob provides a safe, fun, relaxing place to run, explore, enjoy the sun and when available, socialize with the owner’s sweet retriever. A great place for physical exercise and mental stimulation! The place is always clean. Plus there’s plenty of seating for people and toys for the pups, I can’t thank the hosts enough for providing this valuable special place. ❤️🐕❤️🐕Amy J.

55My dogs loved this yard!! The fence is very high and private. They left out fresh water, bags, toys, and treats which is such a kind and thoughtful thing to do. The only thing you should note is that there are some small openings in the bottom of the fence but each opening has rocks and bricks underneath it! Highly recommend this sniff spot and we will most definitely be coming back! Lili L.

55Our first - but not last - visit was awesome.
We received directions from the owner so we knew exactly where to go and where to park.
The yard is very clean and well-maintained. The fence is super high.
There was fresh water in a sparkling bowl, poop bags & disposal, and toys available. There was also seating.
What we loved most was seeing our girl run and run. Our yard is not fenced and the generosity of this family - to share their yard - gave her a chance to wear herself (& us) out. We can’t wait to go back!!De K.

55The backyard was private, well-kept, and they set out all the supplies we might need: toys, water, poop bags, and treats. It was a lovely morning and we couldn’t ask for a better spot!Julia M.

55This was a fabulous, wide open space that Declan loved being able to get his full run on and really stretch his muscles in. There were toys available and a full water bowl which was lovely! A few muddy spots which Declan didn't care about but were a little slippery, so wear good shoes!
The fence will contain most dogs, though there are a couple spots that holes under the fence are filled in with rocks. This could be a problem if the dog on the other side of the fence is out and your dog is determined to meet them (so I probably wouldn't bring my eldest; she uses her paws like hands and it too fast for me to get to her if I'm on the other side of this amazing space).
Declan and I will **definitely** be back!Jessi J.

55The yard was beautiful and the hosts left out toys and water. Our dog reactive Ruthie loved it so much! The neighbor’s dog was out during the last few minutes of our stay and could be seen through a small gap in the bottom of the fence but other than that it was great. We’d definitely go back. Emily O.

FAQ about our North Reading 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.
