55Lovely yard, very peaceful and shady with lots of little hills and nooks for dog to explore. He had a great time running the length of it and all around and is now fast asleep! Thank you for making this special space available so my dog could be free and have fun.Katherine C.

55Our dog had a blast running around. Clean, exactly as pictured. Plenty of space with lots of hilly areas to tire him out. Water and toys were available. We’ll definitely be back. Niki A.

55The best host! This was our first Sniffspot and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The host was informative and there were lots of extra helpful things (toys, treats, paw wipes, etc.). It’s been crazy rainy recently but my pup loved it and, as mentioned, the host provided wipes to help clean up. Jennifer H.

55Thank you for a great open space and tons of extras! I've been twice before with 2 different dogs to your pool in the summer. This time I brought one of my dogs along with my foster who is a tripod. I kept her on leash but it's nice to have a safe space where I don't have to worry about strange dogs approaching us. And my personal dog got tons of exercise running around. Thank you also for the fun place to have a photo shoot and the toys and treats. We'll be back!Jeanne U.

55My Australian Cattle Dog Stella and I had such a good time at Leslie’s wonderful SniffSpot. Stella got to run herself ragged and loved every minute! Leslie has outfitted her yard with everything a pup and his/her human could possibly want! I was so happy watching Stella being so happy. We will certainly return!Rory R.

55Our pup had the most amazing time here- we’re all already looking forward to going back again. The yard is secure and beautiful and Leslie really thinks of everything you may need. We loved being able to see our pup run like a race horse and can’t wait to book the pool in the summer for her to use. Don’t hesitate to book this spot- we absolutely loved it. And thank you for the toy and treats! So thoughtful!Jessica X.

55Leslie has the most amazing backyard and you can tell she really loves dogs with all the thoughtful treats and toys she leaves out! The backyard space is really spacious, clean, and fenced in well. This was our first time here and we got to take our dog when there was a little snow still there and he LOVES the snow so he had a great time. We can’t wait to come back as this was such a wonderful way for our dog to be able to just run around and have fun since we don’t have a yard of our own. Thank you Leslie so much for making your backyard such a great space, we had a lovely time with our dog!Christina J.

FAQ about our Closter 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 Closter area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 499 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 99 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
