55We had such a great experience! The SniffSpot was easy to locate, park and get out into the woods! The trails were nicely groomed and they had plenty of area to go out on the trails for a walk, play and splash around in the pond, or play fetch in the open yard. Brody and I had such a wonderful time, we can't wait to come back again!! Hilary R.

55We absolutely loved the well kept trails and wide open spaces for our pups to run around. They had a blast cooling off in the pond and sniffing around the dried up stream. We can’t wait to come back and explore some more!Kira T.

55What a perfect spot for my reactive dog!! We got a solid hour long walk in, I and I loved knowing we weren’t going to run into any other dogs. The trail is well maintained and for a braver pup the pond seems great!Mel F.

55All I can say is…WOW! A true hidden gem, I am surprised this isn’t booked 24/7. This spot was perfect for my two reactive dogs. Long trails with no one in sight, a private pond for swimming. So peaceful & private, absolutely will be back and recommend to others!Sarah G.

55100% will be returning! We met Andrew when we first arrived. He was so kind and gave us a rundown of the land. Our dog, Daisy, loved running on the trail and sniffing everything. The land is beautiful and we all got a little workout in! Can’t wait to come back.Danielle A.

55Really nice property with a wide trail through the woods. I enjoyed seeing all the flowers and vegetables growing on the farm. Perfect place to stop on our way home from Maine. Dog got a lot of exercise and slept the rest of the way home.Andrea P.

55We're so thankful to be able to come here! Jack "ran his legs off" & wallowed in the brook & pond. The trails are well groomed & easy to follow. We still haven't made it to the end, maybe next time!Sue C.

55Had a photo shoot scheduled but ended up down pouring so I had to reschedule. Host was extremely understanding & communicative up to an hour before the scheduled time. I could say so much more about how flexible & accommodating this host is but you should find out for yourself! Beautiful property as i’m a return renter. Thank you! Emily P.

55This is our favorite Sniffspot! Jack is now passed out from a well needed run & swimming. It was hot but there were many shady spots on the trail. Jack loves the pond & brook! I give our visit 500 stars! Sue C.

55This was a great spot and super well maintained! I do think some additional instructions, or signage on the property, would be helpful as I did feel a bit like I was creeping around somebody’s home on arrival, but the host was super friendly when I reached out. He confirmed I was heading the correct direction and provided some helpful info about the trails. Unfortunately, we did have to leave early as my boy ran off into the woods and got caught up in some nasty thorns. As I said before, the trail is very well maintained, but I would advise keeping an eye on your dogs if they go off path! Plenty of ticks and deer flies too, but that’s typical for Maine this time of year. Overall I’d say this is an awesome way for dogs to get their exercise with plenty of places to explore!Carter S.

FAQ About 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. 9% 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 44 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 128 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.
