55Both of my dogs loved being able to run free in the yard. An added bonus was the small pool of water that they splashed in - helped to keep them cool since the outside temp was warming up. Amanda is a great host and provided the drinking water and doggy bags for our use.
I believe Hunter and Charlee will vote for a return visit soon. 🐶🐶Cynthia P.

55We had the most wonderful visit and will be back soon! Lots of space and toys (that Amanda didn't mind if my super chewer destroyed, although she ended up being too busy exploring and sniffing to focus on the toys) and my dog was exhausted from having so much fun!
Thanks, Amanda, Mocha and family!Lara C.

55Beautiful space, a good mix of sun and shade. Amanda was a great host, she greeted us from a distance and let me know where to find the side gate. The yard has lots of fun things for dogs: a dig box, plenty of plants and grass, and so many toys!! I have to agree with a previous reviewer that the blue lives matter flag may make some visitors uncomfortable. Overall though this was a fantastic space and Pinky had an amazing time running and sniffing!! The space is absolutely safe and tall fencing was perfectly secure!Laura B.

55Amanda’s beautiful backyard is the perfect playground for my pup and her playmate. We have been here 4 times now and our dogs love running around and playing with all of the toys. Even on the hottest days, there is so much shade. Our pups are completely spoiled coming here. Amanda always checks in and is a gracious host. We will be back next week!Chie S.

55Amanda was the most excellent Sniffspot host I’ve ever had (I’ve tried several)! I was so impressed with and appreciated how much care she put into our visit. She laid out a ton of toys for us to play with, left out a box of treats, had doggie bags available, and filled up a water bowl along with the splash pool! It’s a gorgeous yard with a huge beautiful tree in the middle, who’s shade covers you from the sun nicely. My dog had a blast romping in the splash pool and stretching her long legs while running around. This yard even has a digging area for diggers! Will definitely be back.Olivia K.

55We had a wonderful late morning at Mocha’s play spot! Backyard is big and clean, with gorgeous tree in the middle that provides a lot of shade. Amanda is very sweet and hospitable- there are plenty of toys, pool with fresh water, comfortable seatings at the patio. The fence is tall and no holes in it. I heard Mocha barking inside once but my reactive dog didn’t notice it as it was so many new things to explore. We for sure will be back.Maria K.

55Our visit to Amanda’s yard was excellent. Everything was as listed, private entrance, plenty of toys, water, bowl, wipes, paddling pool and a towel. And a place for the humans to sit. This was our first visit and I highly recommend it. Our dog had a great time sniffing around and exploring the new space. It was completely private. Thank you Amanda, we greatly appreciate your space and plan on returning!!! Charmaine M.

Her backyard is very spacious and well cared for. We had 3 dogs and they all had a great time.
She kindly let us borrow a table and allowed us in early to set up the decorations. All the instructions were clearly given. We had a great experience with our first Sniffspot! Thank you Amanda. Moen S.

FAQ about our San Jose dog agility parks
Are dog agility parks safe?
While public off-leash dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than city parks. Contrary to a typical dog park, 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 safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. As always, ensuring you use park dog agility equipment safely is also key to an enjoyable experience.
How do I know if a dog agility park works for my dog?
Owners commonly wonder about whether a park works for their dog. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a fenced dog agility park that works for your dog. You can also filter on size to find a larger park or neighborhood parks. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog agility parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog agility parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can read the description of the spot to see the details of the set up, such as whether there is commercial grade park equipment, and other amenities, such as park benches. Browse photos to get a sense for park design. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking agility park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot agility park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Treat all park equipment with respect and care.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot agility park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
How much do Sniffspot agility parks cost?
Dog agility parks in the San Jose area range from $9.0 and $9.0. The least expensive dog agility park is North Ballard Backyard Available. The most expensive dog agility park is North Ballard Backyard Available. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
