55We had a great time! The spot was clean and well maintained. A dog did bark in the yard behind a few times, which could be a problem for some reactive dogs, but was fine for mine. The terraces were great for jumping and tiring my dogs out!Marie B.

55My dog had a great time! Carmen alerted me that her neighbor has a dog that may bark during our visit. It barked several times while we were there and once ran along the fence barking. My dog is usually reactive to other dogs. She ignored the barking and continued her exploration of the yard.
Will definitely make a return visit! GAIL K.

55Carmen's spot was relaxing and well-appointed. The dogs enjoyed the different areas to explore (deck, grass, patio) and I enjoyed all the different patio furniture lol. Though you can occasionally hear a dog bark, the dog can't really be seen through the fence. Do be careful some of the planks on the deck are loose and there's enough room under the deck for dogs to go under! Betty K.

55Cameron is very responsive and allow us to come earlier than the booking time. Her place is spacious with multi-step garden so my dog Laila enjoyed jumping through each sections. She had a fun time running around, occasionally got distracted with neighbors’s music or dog barking. Laila would bark back and then went back with whatever she’s sniffing.

55My pup and I had a lovely time at this serene and beautiful terraced yard with a nice view of the hills. The host was a good communicator, there was ample parking in the quiet neighborhood, the seating was comfy, and the fencing was secure. The neighbor’s dog barked and ran along the fence but my dog generally ignored it and focused on sniffing and exploring. Monica L.

55This is a beautiful, peaceful country property big enough for dogs to really stretch their legs! The owner leaves water and some toys to share which is really nice. I enjoy the drive out to this spot and it’s a great place to play and train with your dogs!Kate C.

55Phin had a ball running around off leash and loved the camp bed. 🙂 I enjoyed listening to all the birds, roosters and peacocks l think and watching him have fun. The fence in our yard isn't great so l don't feel confident having him run around there. We will definitely bring a friend next time. I think he would have had more fun with a buddy. It was a little difficult to find due to Google maps' directions, but a neighbor told me how to get there. Next time will be easy. Phin left a tennis ball for the next pup that comes. My fault l forgot it. A great day!Beth B.

55Really great space for my reactive dog Mac to run. Witnessed him actually PLAY yesterday for the first time with our friend’s dog - such a great Mother’s Day gift. There’s an elevated deck/seating area for the humans. There was also water, bowls, and toys at the entrance for guests but we brought our own. We could hear a dog or two barking off in the distance which caught Mac’s attention for a split second. Either way, it’s a perfect training opportunity… Lots of sniffing and fun was had. Will definitely book again. For folks in the Bay Area, Kelley’s SniffSpot is a scenic drive not too far from the freeway. Thanks for sharing your space Kelley! Christine D.

FAQ about our El Sobrante dog parks
