55There are two fenced options for your pups, I choose the fenced 4 acre field. Half of it is open grass & half is woodsy, great for open play & hide and seek! Fence is secure & perfect for what my pittie needed. There are chickens in the field area, but they are off to the side in a pen so my dog was able to overlook them. Highly recommend/would rebook again!Angelli L.

55Our dog had a great time at this awesome Sniffspot. We will definitely be back! June is an 8 year old hound who enjoys wandering at her own slow sniffy pace. With acres of fenced field AND woods she was the in her element. Michelle P.

55This place is awesome! My dog loved the mud after rain recently and admittedly so did I! So much space and my dog could sniff around. Hope to be back as this is easy and close to do on my lunch hour. Aida S.

55Reese enjoyed running around the field and playing ball. We moved to the yard because she was more interested in the chickens than she was playing ball. There were areas that were muddy and she also found a puddle to play in so we had to go for a bath afterwards. She still had a blast with all the room to run. Thank you for sharing your space!

55This is an amazing spot. There are two separate spaces. The yard sized space and then the field and woods space. My dog LOVED the field and woods as he is a runner. Plenty of space for any dog/s. Signage is perfect and clear. We are so grateful that we found you. We will be back!Krista K.

55What a fantastic space! My dog and I are visiting a friend, but she doesn’t have a yard. We found this spot and it is quite a gem! My dog had a great time sniffing and running and even meeting the resident dog (with prior communication, of course!)Anita S.

55I have 3 girls which I walk every day in my development, we have quarter acre but not not enough for them to run at home. This was heaven for them, they ran around for half an hour like crazy. They explored the entire property. This will be our go to place. LOVE IT, LOVE IT.
I highly recommend this place and Jesse is a very nice person, especially for sharing his great property with other 4 legged babies.Donna G.

55Fantastic spot! There is 1 acre that is fenced, connected to the home which is nicely shaded. The back 3 acres also house a chicken coop, which my girl thought was interesting but left the chickens alone. We will definitely be back! Katy M.

FAQ About Dover 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. 5% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Dover area are 5 stars.
