55We brought our two big dogs to Scooby’s Playground and it instantly became our favorite spot. The space is fully fenced, clean, and peaceful with plenty of room for them to run and explore safely. The hosts thought of everything including water, toys, towels, and even treats. Our dogs loved watching the goats, pigs, and ducks nearby, but the privacy screen kept it calm and stress free. We left with two happy, tired pups. You can tell the owners put a lot of heart into this place and the cause behind it makes supporting them even better. Highly recommend for big dogs, shy dogs, or any pup that needs space to zoom.Katie B.

55Fantastic SniffSpot! Fun for doggies: splash pool, balls & toys, treats and even some agility equipment! Water for pups and pup parents, plus a comfy shaded space to chill and a warm welcome from the host. Super well organized and maintained. Joy for days!

55Lovely spot!
As folks have mentioned, there were lots of toys for the pups, fresh water, poop bags, and even treats (for humans too!). Both hosts were super sweet. I did not put one of my dog’s leashes on correctly and he, of course, took off running through their front yard and peeing on their tree. It took me several seconds to get him back to me and both hosts came out of their house and were super kind about the mishap. My dogs loved all of the smells and we had a really nice visit! We will be back! Christina S.

55We had a great time. My three reactive boys enjoyed themselves in the park and appreciated all the amenities! They were also infatuated with the farm animals. We appreciated the hospitality of the hosts. It was a hot day but there was plenty of shade and water. The boys were exhausted the whole night and next day! Will definitely return. Jackie G.

FAQ About Martinez 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?
