55Best Sniffspot I’ve been to so far! Super easy to find, parking and entering was super simple. The yard was very clean and there was more than enough space for my dogs to run around. I also loved that it was mostly grass so my dogs didn’t get all muddy from going in the pool and then the dirt. Kristin O.

55We had so much fun at Shaggy’s Shack! It was the perfect spot for our group of 7 dogs to meet up and cool off. All of the pups had plenty of space to run and play. Amanda C.

55Had a great time in the pool! Backyard was gorgeous. We are visiting from OR and the heat is not so great for doggy outdoor activities, so my dog and I very much appreciated the pool time. Michelle D.

551st Sniffspot visit and this property didn't disappoint. Large well-manicured yard and clean pool. Toys/water/poop bags/handwipes/towels available. Think it was too hot for my old puppers to fully enjoy, all they wanted to do was go inside & look for a couch to lay on lol - I will definitely attempt an outing here with them again in the evening and/or when it gets a li'l cooler out.

FAQ about our Tempe 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 Tempe?
There are 118 small dog parks in the Tempe 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.
