My dog and I really enjoyed our visit to this Sniffspot. There was ample room for her to run around, play fetch, and (of course) sniff. There were plenty of chairs for human mom to sit on; and water, treats, and poop bags available for the dogs. Everything was very clean, and as described in the listing. Would go back again.

The yard is a great size and very clean! The fencing is very secure except for the small gate in the front but you can pull your car close enough to mostly block it. They also offered treats, poop bags, water and a frisbee to play with! I can’t wait to bring Ellie back!

Excellent communication with host, great location, nice big fenced-in yard that let my 55lb mutt really stretch his legs and do all the zoomies! We will definitely be back!

My dog had such a good time. The space was big enough for him to run around and play with the tennis ball. Super clean and easy to find. We will definitely be back!!

All the dogs had a great time at Angela's! The yard was large enough for them to run around quite a bit and was clean and well taken care of. Three house was easy to find and there was ample parking. Everyone had a lot of fun!

Had an amazing time!! We took our little man so that he could socialize with another dog we know. A lot of barking at first that became a game of chase and hanging out. Both dogs had a great time. Jess was super accommodating and contacted me before the visit to see if we needed anything. Fence was in great shape, clean and a water bowl was set out with a pitcher of water as well. There are lights lining the fence and overhead as well which would be awesome to see at night. Great spot. Many sniffs had and more to come! Will cone back and definitely recommend!

Jess was super friendly and willing to accommodate my older dogs. I expressed concern if my dogs could see/hear her dogs even though they’re inside. She said she could take her dogs for a walk if we needed that distraction removed. I am grateful to have people who are willing to help us out even more than just borrowing a yard. That shows me she really cares about our experience. Thank you!

FAQ about our Albany 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.
