55Such a beautiful space, it's unfenced but it's big enough to where if your dog has good recall there is no problem at all. Can't wait to come back on a warmer day so our baby can enjoy the creek to the fullest. Thank you!!Saya D.

55This place is fantastic! Muddy in the winter so wear appropriate footwear. My 15 week old pup absolutely loved running around on her long line. The busy road was far enough away that it didn’t startle or frighten her-great socialization ! Will be back again!Erin A.

55My dog had so much fan! She is reactive, so kept on lead but that did not stop her from having fun sniffing and digging and being a dog. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful property!Mary G.

55Awesome space with lots to explore! Our big dog had enough space to play fetch with the chuck it and really loved swimming in the creek and sniffing amongst the trees. Saw a bald eagle right above the creek as well! Parking is easy and Veronica was very friendly and easy to communicate with. We will for sure be back!Kim S.

55My pup had the best time swimming! He’s a reactive boy so it’s nice having somewhere he can go and swim without worrying about running into other dogs. Lindsey A.

55Dogs absolutely loved 😍 it. They didn't dig but they did the run swim. I had been nervous about the no fence but there is a really decent natural barrier and if you keep your dogs from that area by the street it is fine.
Glad I worked hikers. Very February ground that I would expect anywhere next to a creek.
Thank you for opening up your yard to us. Dina C.

55A great spot and very helpful host! Was definitely muddy and wet, but not slippery except near the creek, but even that wasn’t too bad. We saw a couple deer on the other side of the creek, so if you have a dog willing to cross water to chase one be aware. We had a wonderful time! Aradia H.

55This was our first time using Sniffspot and our dog loved it. She was able to run, fetch and romp around in the creek. She’s a bit on the reactive side so it was great to see her have fun without the stress of running into other dogs. Jessica S.

55Great place, but be warned your dog will most likely be filthy when they are done. This spot has water, mud and plenty of tall grass for lunch. Also we saw a pair of bald eagles and other birds. Sean S.

55It doesn’t get any better than this for a dog who likes to swim, catch frisbees, chase sticks, eat grass, and roll around. I wouldn’t recommend it for dogs who don’t have good recall off leash because it’s incredibly interesting, no matter which way you turn. There is no fencing, and that was not a problem with our Aussie, who was thrilled with all the space to run and swim.
It was also an excellent spot to Birdwatch because of all the vegetation and nearby fields. We got to see the bald eagle and the very big nest.
We loved it here! Lynee P.

55Fun time! Our three rambunctious hellions had a blast running, sniffing, and playing in the creek. The road nearby made us a little nervous, but we just tried to keep distance. We all got a little muddy for sure, but NBD - small price to pay for a good romp! Dani S.

FAQ about our Hillsboro dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Hillsboro?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs 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. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
