Pamela's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Melbourne | Sniffspot
55We loved it here! There was a nice walk way leading up to the gate so it was easy to find. Pamela set out some toys, treats, bags, and a little pool for our dog to play in. The yard is big and has a lot of open room for the dogs to run!
We will definitely be back! :) Halen G.

55This was my first experience with Sniffspot. Even though I booked last minute the host responded quickly to my text and had directions on how to get into the backyard before I got there. I just forgot to look before I got there. She had water, toys and plenty of places to sit in the shade or sun. The fence was very secure and the yard was very clean after the hurricane. The photos of the property help very much in finding the gate and confirming you are at the right spot. Carolyn H.

55Perfect size yard for our pups to burn off some energy. Host had water, treats, toys, and poop bags available for use. Dogs loved running and chasing their Frisbee. Nice privacy fence, and we didn't hear any other dogs/people around. Erin T.

55My dogs run & frolic running to catch their balls & jumping in the pond for a solid hour.
There is lots of space & it is nearly completely enclosed.
We have no problem at all with driveway being open.
I'm interacting with them & they show no interest in running away.
These boys stay with Momma!
We seen lots of different birds, butterfly's & curious dragonflies.
Very nice time.
We usually stay on the lower front of the property, there is a whole lot more of available space than what my pictures indicate.
I absolutely recommend this Sniffspot.

55Life with a reactive dog can be difficult, but we found the perfect oasis for our sweet 2 year old girl ! A perfect place to let my girl run free while working on building her confidence and obedience. The ponds, horses, and trails were lovely and my ladybug thought so too ! We will for sure be returning ! Jessica C.

FAQ about our Melbourne 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Melbourne 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 121 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 18 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.
