55We had another great visit to Manuela's yard! When we first got there, there were some doggies in the neighboring yard barking, and that set our Ginny off, but the neighbors took their doggies inside and Ginny was able to let that go and play. We got our girls to run for a half hour, then we took them on a hike to "normalize" their day. They love to play in the yard, but it is unusual enough that we needed a regular walk to give them a chance to shake off the excitement. Then we came home and had baths and peanut butter! Yay! Sleepy girls!Lisa H.

55This yard is amazing! It is huge with plenty of space to run and throw balls. It had scattered dog toys, a huge clean water dish (put out specifically for my time slot), poop bags and a mini poop bag trash can in a fully fenced in area with 6’ ft fence. This host thought of everything! They even labeled part of their driveway with a dedicated parking sign for customers. I even messaged the host ahead about my dog’s anxiety with other dogs and she immediately responded saying she would close her curtains so her dogs wouldn’t bark and distract mine. I can’t possibly think of anything else you ask for! My dogs were thoroughly exhausted and went to bed early! So grateful for this amazing find! Definitely our dedicated fav spot now!Sandra B.

55Great experience! Yard was very secure with a 6 foot fence which is hard to find and great for my jumpy dog. Host also left out many toys and balls so no need to bring your own. Thank you! My pup had a great time.Emily L.

55Super great spot to let my boys run off some extra energy in a change of scenery, and get some new sniffs! The owner had toys and balls scattered around the yard which the dogs loved. They also had a full water bowl out. Would absolutely book again! Madeleine K.

55What a great experience we had! Manuela had set up a large bowl of water, a waste station, plus there were plenty of toys and things to sniff! Our dog really seemed to have a lot of fun. This is a perfect solution for pups who get overwhelmed at dog parks, but still wants to run around and have a good time! We will definitely be back. Lauren R.

55Our 5 month old, Marlin, had a wonderful time in Manuela’s Big fenced in backyard. After a day of being confined inside due to an ice storm, the roominess of the yard allowed Marlin to be free! There were plenty of toys, a large bowl of water, easy parking, a poop dispenser and Manuela stepped outside to make sure we had everything we needed. We’ll be back again.Jane M.

55Our first Sniffspot visit ever and it was great! Huge yard, nice sunny spots to sit, plenty of room for Rocky to run, water, toys, and a poop station - it was a perfect afternoon. Manuela reached out prior to share some basic info and the house and yard were very easy to find. We will be back!Tracy S.

55I thought the spot was great! It was a nice big fenced-in yard with plenty of toys. We brought our own - Leia doesn't go anywhere without her ball - but she had a good time sniffing all of them. We brought our own water and bowl but the owner was kind enough to provide that also. It was a great experience and we will be back.Kathy J.

55My doggo and I had a great time at this spot! My dog is people reactive and Manuelas setup made it easy to park and go directly into the backyard without having to worry. large enclosed space, a tone of toys, and a big bowl of ice water was already there ready for us. Would definitely recommend and come here again!Jesse W.

FAQ about our Reston 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 Reston 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 348 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 60 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.
