55We had a great time at the Dave’s dog park. The dogs had a lot of room to run and explore and water to drink. We will definitely visit again. Deanna S.

55Our dogs had the BEST time here. David’s yard was perfect for them to run in. He also thoughtfully included water, poop bags and many toys for them to play with. Amanda W.

55This is a wonderful Sniffspot. My girl is “extremely nervous” and reactive and so she followed me around everywhere we went in the yard! We will need to try a few more times for her to get used to the space before she will probably actually run! She is a rescue from the meat trade in China. Happily, this spot is fully and safely secured, fence/wise, and, we felt very safe there !Shauna M.

55David’s spot was easy to access, private, and very secure - my pup explored the entire perimeter of the fence and found not a single gap. Lots of toys in the yard to play with. A little bit muddy the day we visited, but that’s going to happen in the outdoors in this funny cold-warm-cold weather we’ve been having, and didn’t take away from our happy sniffy play time one bit.

55We had a lovely experience! Even though we booked at a short notice, David made sure the space was clean and fresh water was left out for my doggo. 10/10 would highly recommend! Though we did not use them, there are plenty of toys for your furry friends to play with. Pao D.

55We had a great time! My dog loved zooming around the yard. Water bowl, toys, poop bags, and chairs were provided. Overall a very clean yard except for one poop. Saw a few neighbours from across the yard, but no dogs. Was able to park on the driveway and easily access the yard through the wooden gate. Maggie L.

55This place was amazing! My pup loved it, he ran and sniffed until exhaustion. This spot is very clean and super fun. I did not hear any other dogs. I saw some neighbours but my boy was never bothered by them. There is also quite the comfy chairs and swings and shaded areas for dog parents as well to be comfortable while the puppies run around in the yard.Steph V.

55Dogs had a blast! Lots of toys and space to run, and the planter box for digging is something particularly unique and fun. It was clean and nice human seating too :) Instructions were clear and I appreciate being able to park in the driveway. I’ll definitely be booking again!Kimberley M.

FAQ about our Scarborough small dog parks
Are small 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 are 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Scarborough?
There are 151 small dog parks in the Scarborough area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot 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.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
