55This place is wonderful! Getting there was easy, the owner was great to answer questions, and it was a perfect “secret” paradise for my two mini Aussies and myself. I loved it as much as they did. I was able to relax and enjoy the surroundings and just watch them instead of having to throw a ball, lol. It’s close to a busy highway so we could see the cars going by and hear the noise, but it is not close enough to worry about and the noise was drowned out by the beauty of the location. The water was cool but not deep, so the dogs wandered in after running around exploring. The property is a perfect size for us to enjoy an hour. I’m definitely recommend it to those who enjoy walking on the river rocks and need to escape to a little piece of heaven.Debra M.

55Amazing spot, beautiful and secluded on the river. Saw no other dogs or people besides the property caretaker. Good for people and dog swimming, the current was very mild with a couple semi deep areas. Most of the area by the shore was shallow enough for my dogs to enjoy the water without needing to swim to explore. It’s quite rocky so bring some Tevas or swim shoes. :)) Kyla D.

55Perfect! This was the first sniffspot I felt safe letting my dog off leash. Sarah was great when I contacted her during my booking to verify a dog free zone for my reactive pup, she responded immediately and accommodated my needs. The whole area was very secure which is great since my other pup, the super friendly one is an escape artist extraordinaire. The yard is a mixture of patio haven and ivy garland trees giving the dogs an opportunity to play and explore. I enjoyed the setting as much as they did. What I really appreciated was that it felt safe. They weren’t going to get hurt if I looked away for a minute. I was surprised that they wore themselves out as quickly as they did. I know they had a great time.Nickole G.

55This was our first visit to a sniff spot. Sarah was a super responsive, friendly and accommodating host. She answered all questions very quickly. A very easy process. Our dog loved roaming around on the property which is about half an acre of hillside with trees and lots of bushes and walkways. No grass, but an ample deck and numerous places to sit. Everything was as described and our dog had a blast. The whole property is fenced in and it was a great experience for Oni, our dog, to be able to be off leash without worrying that he will escape. Definitely recommend Sarah in this place. Thank you again for your hospitality it was awesome!Ute N.

55We had such a great time, this spot was perfect for my energetic and agile my pup. He loved running up the hill in the yard and through out the bushes. Sarah was great and very responsive. She left out towels for us to use since it was a bit rainy today and some treats. We will definitely return. Brielle L.

55Sarah was very accommodating and came through on the fly to provide space for my onyx to run off some built up energy. We both will sleep much better tonight! Thanks Sarah we will be back! Katharine D.

55Wow! What an incredible Sniffspot! For my boys that was paramount to a trip to Disneyland. The yard is clean and well kept. The farm animals are clearly used to dogs and seem more playful than afraid of them. My boys have a goat neighbor so they are not surprised or threatened by farm animals. This spot is ideal for us and if your dog/s are cool with other animals then I highly recommend this spot. Access was really easy and the host was communicative. Kira H.

55Facilities are peaceful and secure as advertised, and easy to find. My little guy is a recent rescue thru American Maltese Rescue, so he is a little timid, but we walked around for a bit and he met your goats. Once he settled in, we had a very pleasant afternoon.andre j.

55We make sure to visit the farm at least once per week while the weather is good. O’Malley loves it there — lots of sniffing, checking out the animals and some shade if needed. Dawn B.

55I took my Golden Retriever, Charlie, to this wonderful ranch. He had so much fun visiting the goats and mini horses, but most of all, he got to play with the host’s dog named Maverick, also a Golden Retriever who loved balls and swimming as much as Charlie does. The two romped around chasing balls and jumping into the pool to cool off. I cannot say enough how great of a place this is, and the hosts were very gracious. We will definitely be back. Judy O.

55Fantastic location if you are looking for a wide open, grassy field for playing frisbee or practicing recalls. Grass was mostly grass, not mowed weeds, and green, so no stickers…something I look for because i have a maltipoo with soft hair. I booked this location primarily to play train my 10 month old shepherd mix with some distractions…in this case farm animals…his first socialization/exposure. I kept him on leash for initial introductions and he was polite so I let him off lead. It turned out to be a non issue because once he found the Jolly Ball, nothing else existed for him, even me, so a little less training today and more just pure exercise. I had to make him stop and rest several times because he was just so happy and was nonstop running around. Maltipoo loved all the sniffy locations. Entire property very clean and secure. Some high foxtails on the far side of the property, but they were on the fence line and actually served to be more of a privacy barrier, so they weren’t an issue. Loved this location and the host was very friendly and accommodating to my slight schedule delay (I went on lunch break and was juggling my work demands.) I hope to return!!!Teresa G.

FAQ about our Auburn 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Auburn 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 114 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 14 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.
