55A truly lovely yard, and so well-maintained! Hermes and I had a fantastic time exploring the wooded paths, dry creek bed, and orchard space 😍 Hermes said no thank you to the pool but it was clear and cold, and he appreciated multiple water bowls around the yard. Ed was very hospitable and the bandana and treats were icing on the cake!Wendy L.

55Ed and Brigette go above and beyond. They have all the supplies and more! Toys, bowls, water, poop bags, chairs, drinks for the customers, and more! He even gave us a gift bag with goodies and handkerchiefs for our dogs. The yard is very open with a nice trail to walk on. We are definitely coming back! Rosalani F.

55Love Riley's dog park! A lot of room for zoomies, play and sniffing. The hosts go that extra mile providing water and treats for the dogs, a splash pool (which my dog was in to cool down from all the running) and more. The area is secure so no need to worry about our dogs escaping. We could watch them play and enjoy. I have recommended this spot to my friends. Thank you for opening up your area. We all had a great time! Sue and RubySue M.

55Such a cool spot! They were so sweet and gave the pups bandanas and treats. There were LOTS of sniffy spots, plenty of space for fetch, and a relaxing trail walk. Alyssa S.

55I am greatful this sniffspot exists. My dog has such energy, loves people, but not adjusted to other dogs yet. Rileys allows a safe space to run my dog. Thank you to Ed and Bridgett! Cynthia B.

55Spacious woodsy area with so much room to run and explore! Our big boy absolutely loved it there. Had forgotten a towel to wipe the drool off our slobbery guy, so the towel next to the water was super appreciated! 🙏Kairi N.

55Riley’s Dog Park is a great Sniffspot! It’s like a smaller version of a more typical PNW dog park but you have it all to yourself. My two pups loved all of the different areas! We walked a few times around the wood chip trail, they explored in the more wooded areas, ran through the small dry creek bed, sniffed around the fruit trees and were curious about the house and yard. We tried playing fetch with the provided balls but there were just too many good smells. The bench in the back corner was a nice spot to sit and listen to the breeze in the trees. Very relaxing especially since it’s all fenced in and secure. There is water for the dogs and humans, a towel in case your pup decides to take a dip in the kiddie pool and we loved our welcome treats and pup bandannas. Since this was our first visit it was nice to have an in person check in as we arrived and departed. One of our pups is a bit too reactive for a typical dog park so this is a great alternative and worth the cost!! Holly M.

55First time at Riley’s and it was great! Both dogs loved sniffing around, playing fetch and chasing each other. Lots of extra amenities which is always appreciated and worth the money. At times it was hard to spot where the pups were because of how big it is but wasn’t really an issue. Will be back for more visits soon! Brittany R.
