55We really enjoyed our visit! The fence is very secure so you can rest easy while your dog runs off leash and plays in the pond. I also loved the benches around the pond so I could sit and enjoy the view for a bit. Highly recommend!Sara A.

55We booked this spot for my pups birthday and we all had the best time! Having a reactive dog that loves to run and swim can be challenging and this quiet remote spot allowed us all to relax. We will absolutely be back and will be sure to tell others about it :) Erin W.

55The place is absolutely gorgeous! Driveway is marked with sniffspot sign which makes it easy to find for the first-time comers, parking place for "The Pond" is marked as well. The place is spotless clean with dog waste dispose stations. Kathy is very warm and welcoming host, she met us upon arrival and showed the way to the pond gate. Cooper and Brutus had a blast there! Brutus is the one that cannot be trusted off-leash and it was so great to let them roam around without worries. It is like a little piece of paradise- we will definitely be back for more fun. I left with two very happy tired wet dogs :)Donata P.

55Lots of space. Fully fenced and secure. My dog had a blast swimming and even saw a fish jump out of the water and kept waiting to see if she could find another one. Great place to explore with your furry best friend. Alicia W.

FAQ about our Pylesville 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Pylesville 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 434 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 36 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.
