55This is such a special place, with incredibly gracious hosts! Everything you could possibly need is here - plenty of fenced space to run and play, bowls, water, extra treats and toys for the pooches. Plus - so many nice touches for the "hoomans" too! My senior rescue dog Arthur ran around like a puppy with excitement at Paula's, and he had a great time lounging on the patio once he'd worn himself out. This is the dog-park equivalent of being poolside at the Four Seasons. We loved it and we're so happy it's close. We'll be back!Lisa V.

55It was our first time there and it was exactly what our dogs needed. We have a rescue who is still dealing with trauma and cannot be near other dogs. Seeing him run around safely and playfully was just a blessing. Everything was clean and very convenient. We cannot wait to come back!Anne Marie M.

55We LOVE Paula's yard! She does an outstanding job with making guests feel comfortable and welcome on the property. We recently has to reschedule with her and she went above and beyond to fit us in on a Saturday! The space is always immaculate and has so many amenities. Fresh water, toys, poop bags, etc for the dogs and also games, treats, etc for the adults! There is also a little agility area that is fairly new for the dogs to use. This is the only place we go to on Sniffspot!! Highly recommend!Marissa O.

55This is a beautiful spot. In the fall it's probably breath taking. Lots of room to play fetch and explore. Recommend booking more than an hour and bringing a picnic and relaxing. We could have spent the whole morning there. My doggie went to sleep the minute we got in the car. Definitely worth the drive from Arlington.
Definitely wear bug spray during the summer. There are a lot of nats. Jennifer P.

55We had a wonderful time at Vaikunth! As soon as we arrived, my puppies took off to explore the very large yard. There was plenty of seating and shade for all of the human and lots of grass for the pups. Once their two friends arrived, they had a blast chasing balls, running and playing. Paula was the most gracious host and offered incredible amenities, including a sink and a trash receptacle for dog waste. It was easy to find, plenty of space for parking and just a wonderful place to celebrate my puppy's first birthday! Katie A.

55This was our first Sniffspot experience and I’m not sure it will ever be beat. This host was so welcoming and kind. The yard was spacious and clean. There was fresh water, toys, and comfortable seating. Our pups loved running all around and exploring the spacious fully fenced yard. We will definitely be back! Tory W.

55As always we had a lovely time at Vaikunth! Today we rented the gazebo. Wow! Paula made it beautiful, flowers ( dog safe) and fairy lights, snacks, and comforting wind chimes gave it a special touch. The weather was good for our visit but the gazebo would provide comfortable shade and a cooling fan for those hot days. We enjoyed Paula’s homemade tea and breakfast with good friends, watching our dogs play in the serene setting as the morning unfolded. Paula always provides an amazing experience. Love this spot!Marie C.

FAQ about our Boyce 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Boyce 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 139 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 28 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.
