Playful Paws Backyard Fun

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

Hi, I’m Anna 👋 My rescue pup Luca and I are lucky to have a fully fenced backyard and would love to share it with you. You’re welcome to book solo playtime for your pup, and if your dog would enjoy a buddy, we offer play time with Luca! He LOVES new friends! We’re excited to host you! 💛 I’ve been a dog sitter for over 10 years and about 3 years ago discovered Luca is the bestest lil temporary brother ... so, now we dog sit together! He’s wonderful with other dogs and loves to share his toys, zoomies, and all the good sniffs. We do have neighbors who have a pup, so you may hear him on the other side of the fence. The gate is on the left side of the house, and will be unlocked. Give it a good push, to open. Shut it tight behind you, the lock sometimes sticks. There is a green pooper scooper next to the trash bin, and poop bags on the silver stand on the porch. Check the extras for fun add ons! If there is anything else you need, let us know. Enjoy!

Your Complete Guide to Dog Parks in Columbus

 

Trying to exercise your dog at Godown Park on a rainy spring day? Or dealing with the mud pit that Wheeler Park becomes every March? Columbus dog owners know the struggle. The weather's unpredictable, the off-leash dog parks get swampy, and finding a clean, safe space that isn't packed with Ohio State students and their dogs can feel like winning the lottery.

 

Columbus has its share of public off-leash areas like Godown Park, Wheeler Park, and the Antrim Park dog section, but here's the reality: they're crowded, muddy half the year, and covered in codes and signs about vaccination requirements, collars and tags, and current tag information. That's why so many Columbus dog owners are switching to private Sniffspot yards in German Village, Clintonville, Short North, and beyond. Fully fenced spaces where your dog won't track mud into your car. No dog bite scares, no aggressive dogs, just secure space you can count on.

 

Why Columbus Dog Owners Love Private Dog Parks

 

Public off-leash dog parks sound great until you're standing in one. Dog's still figuring out recall? Fenced yards mean they can't take off after squirrels into Schiller Park. It's 40 degrees and pouring rain? You want shelter and solid ground, not standing in a soggy field. Got a dog who doesn't do well with large dogs or gets overwhelmed easily? Private bookings solve that instantly.

 

Columbus Sniffspot hosts offer what public parks can't. Covered areas for Ohio's constant rain, agility equipment for high-energy breeds, clean spaces with water fountains that actually work. You're not gambling on whether other dogs are spayed or neutered or worrying about communicable diseases. Training with food or treats? Go ahead without some random dog rushing over.

 

What Your Columbus Dog Actually Needs

 

Columbus dogs need actual fully fenced yards, not parks with sketchy gate latches. They need spaces that drain properly because Ohio weather is relentless. They need water fountains during humid summers. They need regular dog defecation cleanup because nobody should have to navigate that obstacle course. Basically, they need spaces designed for dogs, not just empty lots with a fence around them.

 

Where to Find Dog Parks in Columbus

 

With over 340 Sniffspots in the Columbus area, there's something in basically every neighborhood. German Village, Clintonville, Short North, Grandview Heights, Upper Arlington, Bexley, Worthington, Dublin, Hilliard, Grove City, Westerville. South Side and Brewery District? Covered. Even New Albany and Powell if you're in the suburbs.


Filter by what actually matters: fully fenced dog fields, agility parks, small dog areas, covered spaces for weather protection.

 

Pro Tips for Columbus Dog Park Visits

 

Check the forecast before booking because Ohio will absolutely rain on your plans. Bring poop bags for dog defecation cleanup, a towel (mud season is real), and water even though most hosts have water fountains. Spring and fall bookings are perfect, but grab covered spots for summer humidity and winter cold snaps. Food or treats for training? Pack them.

 

What makes Sniffspot different: your reservation is private. No surprise off-leash dogs. No "can our dogs play?" conversations when yours clearly isn't interested. No muddy chaos. Just dependable space where your dog can run around without the usual Columbus dog park headaches. Browse the hundreds of private options above and book your spot.

55Great yard for zoomies! This location is conveniently located near downtown and just what we needed for a quick evening outing. Anna just added a doggie pool this week and we were able to use the hose on site. Toast was thrilled to cool off in the water. ☀️

55Jazzy had a blast at Anna's Sniffspot! This was our first time trying Sniffspot, as a celebration of her one year adoption anniversary - a great experience we’ll definitely try again! The backyard was a fantastic space for her to play fetch - super nice grass and even had some good shade which helped out with it being a warmer day! Thanks Anna!!

55Tormund had a wonderful time at this truly backyard oasis! He waded in the pond (and didn’t bother a single fish), harassed chickens (first time seeing one), and of course, sniffed everything. By the end of the hour and a half he was waterlogged and pooped, waiting at the gate to head home. 🤣 we will definitely return on another hot day!

55Very clean and open yard with plenty of room to play fetch or run around. There are roughly 4-5 bordering yards with just chain link fencing and one yard with a privacy fence in the corner but we didn't see any people or other dogs while we were there. A neighboring dog did bark at us briefly but they were behind the privacy fence so it didn't bother my dog that much. There was also a filled water bowl left for us that was appreciated!

55We brought an adoptable shelter dog (Toast) to this sniffspot and it was beautiful! Will definitely be back. Monica was so sweet and welcoming. You can tell how much she loves the pups that visit. The property is clean and a great size - plenty of space for zoomies, fetch, sniffing, and strolling. Toast had a blast and we found out he likes to swim! There are fish in the pond and chickens on the property that Toast enjoyed watching (something to consider if you have a reactive dog). I highly recommend this sniffspot and am excited to return with another shelter dog!

55What a wonderful first Sniff Spot experience! The “spot” was exactly as described and provided a large, shaded, safe and well kept space for my 11 month Aussie-mix to burn a ton of energy. We will most definitely be returning. Thank you so much for sharing your space with us!

55Wow. Just wow. Thee most beautiful and perfect Sniffspot. Fully fenced, secure, extremely clean and well kept, PLENTY of space to run and play and the pond is just the cherry on top. The host Monica came out and introduced herself and was so nice and welcoming! We had an absolute BLAST. We did not want to leave and will definitely be back, especially since it is only 12 minutes from me.
