55Great amount of space for our big dog to chase a tennis balls. Secure enough fence to keep the smaller dogs safe. There were some garden tools/gas cans around - if you have someone who is extra curious, be prepared to monitor them. We'll bring water next time and the play session will be perfect!Leann S.

55Beautiful back yard, so much space, with pretty views. Can’t wait to come back with a friend and their dog. Yard was clean, not overgrown at all. So much smells for my little dog to sniff out. There were a couple of spots where he went to roll himself in the grass. But there was never anything in those spots that I could physically/visibly see (ei dead animal or something). So that’s just another reason for me to stop being lazy and give him a bath.
This sniff spot is 5 mins from my place, so the location is convenient. Will definitely be back whenever I can. Thank you so much for sharing your space with the dog community!Gilly W.

55This spot is like a park -- beautiful tall cottonwoods and maples, a very long fenced run. Our dog loved it, lots to discover -- we'll go back! Very clear what to do, where to leave waste bags, etc. Beth C.

55Big yard so dogs could really run! We checked out the bee house - it doesn’t seem to pose a hazard in the location where it is. It wasn’t too hot when we were there, but there’s a little kiddie pool that the dogs could cool off in if needed and plenty of fresh water. Didn’t see neighbors or neighbor dogs, it’s really private! We’re keeping it on our rotation! Jill L.

55My boys and I had a great time! Plenty of running space. They are big dogs and could reach full sprinting speed. They loved exploring and didn't even bark the entire time. We will be back again soon!Edward H.

55If your dog likes to play fetch this is the spot. There's off street parking on their driveway off to the left side. The entrance to the yard is also in front of where you park. You won't be disappointed. Andrea C.

55My dog and I loved playing in the big open yard. The fence is very secure and I was not concerned letting my reactive and very athletic dog off leash. The neighborhood was very quiet and the price is very reasonable. We will be back for sure. Thank you for sharing your yard!Dagmar K.

FAQ about our North Saint Paul 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?
