55Recently we had to say goodbye to our dog Olivia and took her one last time to her favorite Sniffspot. We are so thankful for all the memories this spot has given us as a family, and we hope we can continue coming here for many more years with our other dog Ben Irene A.

55Gia had a great time today! She loved the pool and splash pad, she is a big water gal & it’s great for the summer heat. We appreciated all of the toy options. This will definitely be a regular spot for us. We also extra loved the communication with instructions & information. Chelsea M.

55We didn't get to go because my pup woke up with a rash on his face. The owner wished my pup well then sent me a discount code for booking next time. What a great host! We will be booking again soon!Lisa N.

55Lots of space. Only warning is the gate that you walk through doesn’t close flush and there’s a rather large gap if your dog is an escape artist it could be an issue. Kaitlyn M.

55This is a great open space that allowed our dogs to run but stay in our eyesight the whole time! Plenty of cars drove by and there was a goat and a dog lounging in view of the fenced in SniffSpot, but nothing disruptive. We’ll be back! Andrea G.

55Absolutely loved this spot! The host was incredibly kind and even offered to turn on the splash pad for us. There were plenty of toys, and my favorite part was the natural shade from the big trees and the cool breeze, it made the whole visit so relaxing. There was a large outdoor fan available, though we didn’t need it because it was already nice and cool. Fresh water was also set out, which was a thoughtful touch. We had a great time and will definitely be coming back!Ashley G.

55❤️🌟This Sniffspot has truly been a lifesaver for us. I have a reactive dog who doesn’t do well around other dogs, so finding a safe, quiet space where he can just be a dog is priceless. We’ve been coming here weekly, and it’s become our go-to spot to burn off his energy, play freely, and enjoy the outdoors without stress.
The space is always clean, secure, and thoughtfully maintained. There’s plenty of room for my dog to run, sniff, and explore at his own pace. I really appreciate how private and peaceful it is—we’ve never had to worry about unexpected encounters or noise.
Thank you so much to the host for offering such a safe haven for dogs like mine. Your Sniffspot has made a huge difference in our routine and our lives. Highly recommend to anyone!Nancy Y.

FAQ About Houston 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. 13% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Houston 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 456 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 553 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.
