55Our first visit - we are eager to return and explore more of the pastures and spend more time in the ponds when it was warmer. This is a wonderful location, very private and beautiful. Communication from the host was excellent. Overall an awesome Sniffspot discovery!Kate S.

55Laurie’s property was fantastic. I felt so at ease knowing my dog could romp around freely while being securely fenced in. I thought booking for an 1.5hr would be too much time, but it really flew by! My one tip would be to make sure you bring high value treats with you to make sure you can get your dog to leave when it’s time! Eleanor P.

55Wonderful large spaces to run, roam, sniff. Each fenced pasture can be accessed to give variety and the whole sniff spot is securely fenced in. The pond is super nice especially if your dog loves water.Alicia K.

55Laurie has the most amazing communication and we appreciate her hospitality and willing to accommodate us for another sniffspot date for next week should we need. My dogs had a blast. They swam a little bit in the pond. Will come again when the weather is warmer. Kate T.

55This place is great! I have 2 pups and they loved all the room to run and the smells. One of them even thought she might be able to get the ducks that were in the pond... but she hates the water, haha. It was pretty easy to find and there was a trash can and a big bowl of water near the parking spot. It was a little soggy in a couple of the pastures from the recent rain and snow but we came prepared and Laurie had messaged me and let me know about that in advance. Still didn't deter us from running around and having lots of fun! I definitely recommend this Sniffspot! Jocelyn C.

55Laurie’s property is breathtakingly beautiful. My Dane and her cousin had an amazing time letting loose, flying and playing through the fields, pastures, and along the ponds. Communication with our host was excellent and greatly appreciated, as we had to cancel our first visit due to the snow event and weren’t sure how access would be on the day we rescheduled. This is by far our new favorite spot!Ilana C.

55This is our new favorite Sniff Spot! The young dogs raced around the pastures while the old guy walked sedately with the people. It's a beautiful spot with lots of room for the dogs to explore. Like the host says, there are gaps in the gates where dogs could get out, but the perimeter of the property is otherwise very secure. My dogs were too busy exploring the smells, ponds and mud puddles to bother with the gates. It was wonderful to see their happy faces while they raced around. We'll be back. A lot.Victoria M.

FAQ about our Ellensburg dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Ellensburg area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog field is Bitter Lake. The most expensive dog field is Bitter Lake. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
