55Amazing all around! Janine is a kind, welcoming, and caring host. It’s very clear that she loves dogs just as much as we do! The spot itself was an oasis for both dog and human! Beautiful plants, clean, backs up right to the woods. Clyde loved the pool and splash pad most. He discovered the wooded area 5 minutes before we had to leave otherwise I’d say he loved that too! This space is created and cared for with love. Best Sniffspot I’ve been to and best host! We stopped at this on our way to Cape Neddick coming from Boothbay and it was a great hour for our dog to get some energy out and have fun! Highly recommend! Oh and can’t forget the amazing homemade treats that are waiting for you. So kind!Diana F.

Amazing home made dog treats….toys and just overall a great place. Even provided bug spray!! Nicest sniffspot

55Amazing spot with fantastic amenities! Janine is a great host who has thought of everything. The fact that proceeds are donated to a rescue makes the time that much sweeter for us and our rescue pup! Next time we’ll have a life jacket because our lil guy is still shy about the pool but he had a fantastic time running the spacious yard, enjoying the splash pad and sandpit and sniffing all the beautiful flowers. As a bonus my wife got to rest her knee after a recent injury floating in the pool. Can’t wait to come back! Michael & Rebecca C.

55What a fabulous experience! There isn’t anything Janine left out. Our pups played safely in the fenced in yard, and swam in the pool. They loved the extra kiddie pool. She left us homemade dog treats and had cold water for the pups to drink. There isn’t anything she didn’t think of. Highly recommend!!!Jenny F.

55My husband and I visited Janine's place this afternoon with Mimi and Coco. I must say, it was a fantastic experience. The highlight of our visit was definitely the huge yard and the dog-friendly pool. My dogs, Mimi and Coco, couldn't get enough of the pool. Mimi, who is a swim maniac, spent the entire time fetching in the pool while Coco, our Great Dane, had a great time swimming and doing zoomies around the yard.
Janine had all the toys and tennis balls for the dogs, and even put out pool towels for us to use. The garden in her backyard is simply stunning and we spent some time watching the hummingbirds that were flying around.
Getting to her house was hassle-free, and we will definitely be visiting again soon. Overall, I would highly recommend Janine's place to anyone with dogs who love to swim and play in a beautiful backyard with plenty of room to run around. We had a great time and can't wait to go back!Bobbie H.

FAQ about our York 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 York?
There are 69 small dog parks in the York 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.
