55We love drives out to the country with our dogs and this is a nice one! Wendy’s place is perfect for wide-open running and lizard hunting too! The shade trees are spaced throughout the property which is nice. While well-fenced, I tend to think this spot is currently best for medium and large dogs - not so much little ones or puppies. Our dogs used their own ice water and poop bags. Thanks to Wendy for sharing her lovely property, we look forward to visiting again!Meredith K.

55My dogs loved to run around the trail area and look at the sheep in the nearby field. The property was well kept with lots of cooler shady areas. My dogs also loved to lay in the water troughs to cool off after each lap. Definitely worth the drive from Jax to give the dogs a large area to run around!Rachel P.

55We had a wonderful morning at this fantastic SniffSpot! Very safely fenced, Host even showed us around the property in an UTV to show us the security of the property. His livestock and livestock guardian dog are visible but a) a safe distance away (only visible at front of property) and b) safely contained. Host was helpful and answered any questions we had. We will be back. Our dogs loved exploring the trails. If you have dogs that like to run like us, we recommend getting a bell to attach to your collar as it is densely wooded in spots, gave anxious owners like us peace of mind! Gabrielle L.

55This spot was perfect for both humans and doggies. There’s wonderful, restful spots for the humans and lots of things to sniff and places to hide and run for the doggies. We had been looking for a place where we could go on trails with our dogs and this one fit that bill and then some! The host is super friendly and informative, and we will return to this spot soon!

55This was a perfect, clean, serene spot to allow our standard poodle to stretch his legs off leash after an 8 hour drive. The host was very accommodating and helpful with us not knowing the area. I highly recommend. Jett had fun too. If it were earlier we’d take a walk around the lake too!Lisa S.

55Great spot to take your dogs! Plenty of space, super clean, and awesome that there’s toys provided. The convenience of being able to fill up the dog pools and also give the dogs a bath after their playtime sets this location apart. It’s relaxing for the people too with plenty of seating, a swing, and calming music. Highly, highly recommended.Kimber A.

55Very nice Sniffspot with lots of shade, play pools, toys. Everything looks well maintained. Host offers cold drinks on the patio and shampoo for the dogs. Fence is in check with no gaps which is a plus.
Thanks for opening your yard to us, we thoroughly enjoyed the stay and know our dogs did too :-)Oliver B.

FAQ about our Hilliard 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. 99% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Hilliard area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 172 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
