55Val was a great host!! There was plenty of water available in water bowls and in two kiddie pools for the dogs to play in. The grass was perfectly manicured and green. There are plenty of areas for the dogs to explore and walk around in the yard. It’s a perfect spot for our larger/dog reactive fur babies to get out some energy off leash! There was even a sweet welcome drawing and some treats and toys available! Thank you for having us!!Megan R.

55We chose this spot because it was so beautiful it would be a treat for us as well as our dog. It did not disappoint. Val thought of everything we could possibly want or need for our dog. And our dog had room to really run for the first time since we rescued her almost 3 months ago. We all loved it. Janet K.

55A gorgeous, HUGE, flat grassy area for my dog to stretch her legs and a large stretch of tanbark nestled around shrubbery for her to sniff to her hearts content. Val even had dog treats, sunscreen and hand wipes ready for use! 10/10! We will certainly be returning! Nicole H.

55This is the most beautiful 1.5 acre fully fenced area. Gorgeous manicured huge grass area with trees surrounding for plenty of shade on warm days. I have been looking for a secure large area to practice recall and this place is just perfect. My dog loved all the areas for sniffing and huge grass field for playing frisbee. There was a lovely welcome sign and sign for water bowl. Cannot speak highly enough about this beautiful placeChristina T.

55Val was very responsive and gave clear directions. Her yard/property is amazing and the dogs had so much fun! Fully fenced and totally secure. Big lawn area and some dirt/wood chip areas for them to roam as well. Water bowls provided along with toys etc. if you want them, but we brought our own toys. We did not see or hear any dogs. We will definitely be back. Thanks Val! Ilene W.

FAQ about our San Juan Bautista 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the San Juan Bautista 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 42 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 8 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.
