55It was our first time using Sniffspot and Johns place was awesome! Lots of space for our border collie puppy to run, play frisbee and try out some of the agility equipment. We loved that there was fresh water for her. Thank you! Alexe B.

55Great spot! No other dogs in fenced in yard. It’s great for dogs that are not social with other dogs. Hut was so tired after half an hour! So worth it! It even had an obstacle course for dogs to try out! Can’t wait to bring my other dog over! Thank you so much! Oh and they also have a box full of dog toys! So cool! Victoria C.

55John's yard is a lovely spot! Our pup really loved running and playing in this beautiful large space. She especially enjoyed the obstacle features and pond with steps.
We will definitely be back.

55Second time at this location. It was already a fantastic spot but the owners have made a couple upgrades with some new fencing and a shallow pond. I would recommend to EVERYONE. Sean J.

55Great spot for my pup to run around. Loads of toys to play with and poop bags readily accessible. Clearly well cared for property. The pond is a great addition, it will be refreshing for the pups in the summer.
This place continues to be my go-to. Emily H.

55First time using the app and this spot was super fun for my new rescue dog Ren!
He loved the raised platform and jumping off. The toy bin was great to trial toys he might like (answer: all of them, lol). Will definitely return! Brittany F.

55Save for the north gate allowing a smaller dog (<40lbs) being able to slip through the holes, and a few poops (we picked up), Marissas backyard is a nice large space to allow your pup to run free. Can't beat it for $5! Nick D.

FAQ about our Hamilton 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. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Hamilton area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 281 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 38 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
