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.

55This Sniffspot is absolutely awesome! I have been exploring new places to take my high-energy, water-loving puppy to swim, run, and play. There is a ton of open space here as well as variety of plants and different things for dogs to sniff and check out. The pond was one of the main reasons for our visit. It's super cute and my pup was so happy to be able to swim for a while. The fencing was secure, even by the stream that passes through the property. The host was super kind to supply waste bags and a place to dispose of them, water, and a variety of fun toys to play with. My dog had a blast playing here! Thank you for the awesome visit. I look forward to coming back!

55Wonderful spot! Very clean! Wonderful amenities! Signs and directions were all super clear. My pups loved to smell around the chicken area fence! The natural pond is the absolute highlight! They had so much fun romping around! The water looked clean and clear- the yard is very wildlife friendly- we didn’t see any but you can tell the host cares! Our pups really enjoyed sniffing around!
