55Very nice spot. I really appreciated the snacks, human and pup!
I think very, very small dog might have an escape route under the back fence. We lost a tennis ball under that fence. Just watch your littles closely or pick a different spot. Christa L.

55The yard was a nice size. The host left a basket of toys, water for the dog, and even included dog biscuits. The fence was secure. Overall a nice yard to take your dog.Heather C.

55This is a great place for dogs to play freely. I took my very reactive boy, Dante, there many times., and he loved it! Unfortunately, he passed away from cancer last year. We now have a new 4 legged family member who we take there to play. She is not at all reactive but it’s still the perfect place to run and play! I am so glad there are places like this available!

55We had a great time here! It was easy to get in and the yard was secure. My puppy very much enjoyed running around, playing fetch and learning his way around the agility set up in the yard. We had lots of fun 😊 We will definitely be back again soon! Aurora R.

55Great yard! Will be back! Nice grassy area. Solid wood fencing all around. Shade and chairs available. I brought my new puppy (3.5 months old) and she had a blast getting all her zoomies out! They even set up a cute obstacle course. I appreciated the big bowl of water and treats! And the frisbee was a hit! Thanks so much! Amy L.

55Is was a bit daunting as it was my first time but all I had to do was look for the sign, my dog seemed to know the way even as she’d never been there before. The place was neat and dog ready with water and treats. I love the tall bushes/trees as they gave a sense of privacy. There was seating for me but I didn’t get to sit much tossing and retrieving balls. My dog had a great time and we’d like to go back again.X X.

FAQ About Mount Prospect 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.
