Hello! Welcome to our family farm! We are located 5-8 miles off Interstate 70 on County Road 150. I picked this pasture as our dog park because it’s wide open and perfect for your four legged friend to run his heart out.

I have a 5ft fence that is regularly checked for digging/gaps. I am a petsitter on Rover.com as well as private clients so my yard is dog friendly. Feel free to check out reviews there while this gets off the ground. I do have my own dog that will be inside during your time in our yard unless your pup wants a friend. Any petsitting dogs that I have here will also be included with those guidelines as well as long as I have their owners permission also.

FAQ about our Effingham 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?

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 12 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
