55This is a great spot. There is water for the dogs and two chairs for relaxing in. There is also a "care bucket" with extra water, hand sanitizer and dog treats. My Cocker Spaniel ran all over (and he doesn't usually run!). Highly recommend!Aimee B.

55Great spot. Responsive and friendly host. I appreciated the wipes and poop bucket and hand sanitizer. Fence is a little lower on the side next to the bus stop so may not be ideal for large reactive dogs. Aurielle D.

55The space is clean and large, and water and treats are nice add. It's not the best spot for my dog though because he has guarding tendencies and was able to jump up and place his paws on the part of the fence that's lower. He startled a neighbor who yelled at me, which is more than understandable.
Would definitely return again if that portion of the fence was higher but I definitely recommend spot to anyone who doesn't have a problem child baby like me! Bharati N.

55The yard was nice and clean. The host was very kind. Turns out to be very close to home so it was the perfect location for us. I was having too much fun to take pics but we had the best time. The fence does have a board broken so if you have an escape artist may inquire about that before hand but it wasnt an issue for is and we will be returning soon. Luchuna R.

55My dogs and I had a wonderful time at Lesa’s place! It was big enough for them to run around, play fetch, and look up at the trees to find “squirrels”. Lesa went above and beyond and had toys, treats, a water bowl, and baggies available. We will definitely be back!Angela F.

55Big yard, tall fence. Great spot! JSYK it’s right next to a busy road with lots of traffic sounds. My reactive dog was okay though because he couldn’t see over/through the fence.Jay G.

FAQ about our Baltimore 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 Baltimore 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 450 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 54 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
