55Moxie had a wonderful time at this spot. It is very private and quiet - he was sniffin’ all over the place as it was all new to him - the owner was kind enough to leave water bowl, toys and poo bags - we enjoyed the 1 hour playtime! KARLYN V.

55Well kept yard with extra small touches like fresh water bowl, bags, toys, and treats. For those with reactive dogs, we sometimes heard a dog or two barking occasionally in neighbor yards but didn’t see any - and didn’t impact our experience. Recommend!Ama S.

FAQ About Malden 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. 6% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Malden 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 372 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 639 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.
