55A cute spot! The dogs were out while we were there which was expected (on the other side of the fence) will definitely try a different time when they’re not out :) Kayla P.

55It was as if my dog automatically felt at home in this yard! She took off running instantly and hasn’t done that before. A very comfortable yard for me, too! I sat outside but liked that there was also a screened in porch. Highly recommend!Pat C.

55Spacious and lots of space to run around for our corgis! They had so much fun! We did notice some poops that weren't picked up which the visitors should be mindful to do so.Sung A.

55This was a nice little yard, the fence was fine. We could see a very nice black lab two yards over. It's a smallish yard, but just needed a safe place for my reactive dog to play for a bit, and it was fine for that.Tamara S.

55Lovely neighborhood spot. Lots to sniff and room to run. Very well fenced. Not a huge yard but wonderful for a quick trip. As advertised with toys and things on site for the dogs. Julie M.

55We had a fantastic experience here! The yard was clean and our host put out fresh water for us. The privacy fencing was very secure and perfect for our dog who can be sight reactive. There was some barking from a neighbor dog, but since our dog had line of sight blocked it was a great training opportunity to get her comfortable ignoring that. Emma S.

55Awesome sniffspot for my pup Willow’s first time! I wish I had a yard this nice! Very clean and welcoming and responsive. I was surprised my dog drank the water out of the bowl she provided for us. Willow is usually a picky drinker! Will be back for sure!Melanie G.

55We enjoyed our first visit to this cozy sniff spot! All the fences are very secure and my dog loved sniffing around and chasing the ball! We did a 7am-8:30 time frame on a weekday and did have brief encounters with dogs on both fences. If your dog is highly reactive this could be an issue, but the other dogs are only visible through cracks in the fence. Holly S.

FAQ about our Mendota Heights 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 Mendota Heights area are 5 stars.
