55This yard is beautiful and fully fenced, and the owner is friendly and communicative. She went above and beyond by making herself available via text, letting us throw our bagged poop in her garbage bin, and even putting up a “SniffSpot” sign to let us know that we were in the right place.Sarah G.

55The yard is beautiful and has plenty of space for dogs to run around. I used it for a playdate between my Aussie puppy and my sister's Labradoodle and they loved it. Plenty of seating to chill and watch them play. Definitely worth it!Kevin R.

55Large yard that connects the front and back- I believe the front yard is for use only which is completely fine since it had so much space.
The only ‘cons’ I have is that it’s on a slight hill with lots of growing trees and a fountain the dogs tried to drink out of. With recall from the fountain it shouldn’t be a problem and the hill was bearable for the dogs to chase up and down.
I give this spot 5 stars mainly because there were bright motioned lights that lit up at night- first time I didn’t have to whip out my flashlights! Overall, the pups had a great time in this yard! Tina N.

FAQ about our McLean 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the McLean 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 355 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 59 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.
