55Great backyard and beautifully designed pool--with nice shallow areas for dogs who wanna lounge rather than swim. We also appreciated that the owners left out towels and dog toys (although we brought our own). This is a great spot for anyone whose dog loves the water. Koren I.

55This was a wonderful experience!! Shelley is so kind and gracious. She left out towels and Gatorade for me and my husband and doggy bags and treats for my dogs. The yard is clean, spacious, and gorgeous. Ample areas of both shade and sun!! My pups were on cloud nine! The pool is beautiful and clean with a great shallow area for my dog to practice swimming. Shelly was very kind to let us have the spot to ourselves so our somewhat reactive dogs could play in peace. They’ve been knocked out since the ride home. We all had a great time and will be back soon!! Christine S.

55Shelly and her place were amazing! My dog Polly loved being able to run around without a leash. There was plenty of space to play fetch and the pool was great for the hot day! Shelly provided drinking bowls for water as well as towels. She gave clear instructions and made our first sniff spot experience a breeze!Cheyanne J.

55Beautiful place and wonderful host! My dog is dog reactive and when Shelly heard that, she offered to take her dogs out. Great communication and appreciate the amenities. Maka gained a lot of confidence with swimming and enjoyed the chance to run free! Jessica C.

55Such a great spot! We had some room for fetch, some shade, and took a brief dip in the pool. And Shelly is so kind and accommodating, even putting out towels and sunscreen in case we needed it. We will definitely visit again. Amy P.

55Cooper had the BEST time running and splashing around. So thankful Shelly opened her beautiful backyard for dogs that are hyper reactive like ours. This was a real treat to visit coming from Waikiki and usually being on leash. It was a beautiful / clean / fenced and safe location. Can’t wait to book again! Elaine m.

55Great second visit for the dogs and they were so excited to see Shellys dad and be there for their training. It is really designed for play and fun, which my dogs had plenty of, but they associate water with baths so they avoid the pool. We took advantage of Grandpa who is really nice, the traffic, and a lady walking a huge reactive dog with one of those horrible prong collars to work on my dogs' reactivity and it couldn't have worked out better. Shelly is so accommodating and they feel like ohana already. We will be back. Marianne J.

FAQ About Kailua 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. 34% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Kailua 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 3 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 22 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.
