55This place was perfect. They provided a huge secure play space, with so many fun toys and activities for our dog. She made us feel comfortable with our very shy and nervous puppy and helped us with ways to make him less reactive.
55Have visited twice with canine baby, and hope to have more coming up! Our doggo is a spirited, opinionated terrier in the Pit category. She is young and her manners are rough-around-the-edges. Firstly, I love the fact that to enter the play area we walk through the shop area. This is a perfect opportunity to work on impulse control and regulation, and for the play to be a reward for working hard to get there! The play area has marvelously springy and high-quality rubber surface. Tons of interesting toys and equipment to provide a rotating offering of enrichment activities to exercise body and mind. The shop has unusual and interesting supplies. Tara, the proprietor, is easy to work with and is very accommodating in sharing the space and her training experience. A total joy and privilege to have this spot in Sacramento! Highly Recommend!
55We had a great time with the pups running around! There are other dogs and a kitty in the store that were friendly.
55So much fun, Griffin couldn’t wait to play when we arrived!! I’m glad to have a safe large room for him to go off leash! Plus Tara has stocked good freeze-dry treats to purchase!!
55Just had our first visit! We booked for 4 dogs for 1.5 hours to celebrate my dog’s 12th birthday with her lil circle of friends. They all had so much fun exploring, sniffing, and getting treats. They aren’t huge toy dogs but there was still a lot to do. An hour probably would’ve been plenty of time. Terra was so lovely and helpful and the space was fully clean and ready for us on arrival. I will definitely be back to Paws N Play to shop and hopefully to bring foster dogs to train and explore ❤️
55The facility is really cool...lots of stuff for my dog to play with. This was her first time here so she was really distracted by all the different smells so we couldn't really do much with her this time but let her walk around and check things out. Terra was awesome and made her a homemade snack, which she eventually ate some of it. I think she was just a bit overwhelmed this time but I fully intend to take her back.
55Awesome Sniffspot! In addition to the air conditions, there are tons of enrichment activities for the dogs. I love going to train and then letting the dogs play when we are done. And they love picking out fun chews.
55This place is amazing for your fur child! They have so many toys and things to entertain your pup with. The staff is great and very accommodating as well. Can’t wait to be back!
55We had a great visit! Booked 1 hour and the space was ready for us when we arrived. A++ for cleanliness. There were various toys/obstacles for my pup to play with and on. He really liked checking out the scent boxes and tunnel! We will definitely be booking this spot again.
55Had a great time with my pup! First time there, but acted like he had been there many times before! Super friendly staff, lots of toys to play with, and a very welcoming atmosphere. Play area was clean, and the free treat samples were amazing! Overall, a super, super great place!

Description

Welcome to our exclusive Sniffspot, nestled inside a boutique Canine Community Center, where every dog is celebrated! We’re more than just a play area; we offer a treasure trove of food, supplies, activities, and supplements—many of which you won’t find anywhere else. As a dedicated dog trainer, I know the value of a good practice space. That’s why we’ve created an ideal environment for both group classes and private lessons, especially for our furry friends who find regular pet stores overwhelming. Our Sniffspot, located within our pet retail and dog wash center, is designed with your dog’s needs in mind. What We Offer: • A safe, welcoming space for all dogs, including those with severe behavioral issues. Reactive dogs can enter through the back to ensure a comfortable experience. • Attentive staff ready to provide the space and respect your dog needs. • A rotating selection of engaging play items. • An intriguing scent wall to stimulate your dog’s natural instincts (items subject to change based on availability). Plus, for those looking to refine their pup’s manners around felines, our resident cat is dog-friendly and an excellent distraction trainer! Reserve your spot today and transform your training and play sessions into extraordinary experiences at our Canine Community Center. Your dog’s adventure awaits!

UPDATE NOV 2024: We are gearing up for a kitchen remodel and landscape makeover! It is very exciting, but unfortunately it means we will have to close down our SniffSpot for a little while. We’re sorry for any inconvenience and we hope to be back in business as soon as possible. If you’ve visited us before and are not scared off by a more restricted yard and/or the chaos of an active construction site, feel free to message me and hopefully we can work something out. Thank you to all of our supporters and we hope to see everyone again in the new year! ——————————————————— Welcome to our backyard! Here you will find a large grassy area for the pups as well as a covered patio with chairs and a ceiling fan for the humans. The house is in a great neighborhood and backs up to the school yard of Charles Peck Elementary. Generally things are quiet here, but you may hear the occasional dog barking, kid playing, or school bell. If there's a spot open in our driveway, feel free to take it, otherwise you can park on the street in front of our house. Enter through the gate on the right-hand side of the house (pull the string to undo the latch). Help yourselves to our hoses/spigots, basket of toys, pooper scooper, and any ripe fruit off our trees! Note: The yard is not perfect with some patchy spots and lumps/bumps throughout. We recently moved here and are continually working on yard improvements. However, we have a dog of our own and he loves the yard! Let us know if you are interested in having a pup play date where our dog joins in on the fun :) Thanks for checking out our spot!
