What people say about dog parks around Oak Park, Illinois

What a lovely backyard!! Big space with plenty of room to run, sniff, fetch, swim! Lots of thoughtful touches like a bucket of toys, towels, baggies, bug repellent, hand sanitizer, and chairs for the humans to sit. The house is easy to find, with plenty of street parking in a very quiet neighborhood (at least until we pulled up with our very excited pups). The yard is fully fenced and pups cannot see out anywhere, although you can hear general neighborhood noise and other dogs occasionally.

My boys had a great time. They loved exploring the yard first. We played fetch until they got tired (as/did my arm😛) Nancy’s space is perfect for a good off leash playtime that they don’t often get as we live in an apartment. We will definitely come back.

We had a great time! There’s construction on a nearby street so Nancy reached out proactively with helpful directions. The yard was well secured and the toys and supplies were clean. We had a blast! Will definitely be back.

We had the best time here!!! Coming from downtown, it's the perfect getaway for our nervous rescue. With plants & trees lining the privacy fences and ✨long✨ runway connecting the front and back areas, our boy was running, sniffing, and playing HARD for our entire visit. He doesn't quite understand agility training yet, but it's a great training environment. Nancy was a fantastic host and made sure we had everything we needed (and more). The scenery alone was worth the visit! Bizzy is absolutely exhausted and we can't wait to come back 👍

My dogs loved it here! There was plenty of space for my dog to run and they especially loved the sandbox! Thank you so much!

Great yard for running (zoomies) and the sand pit was fun. Lots to explore and Milo had a fun time just sniffing everything and wandering. Nice private place to sit. Secure yard. Easy parking and overall a great spot.

Always prepped and ready. Tess runs through the door to her favorite spots. Zoomies galore. I can even sit down for a few minutes. Nice.

Great spot in a cute neighborhood! The yard had plenty of space for Benny to run around and play fetch, and amenities including water, toys, towels, and chairs were provided. Will definitely come back!

Beautiful backyard, my puppy loved cooling off in the sand after being able to fetch. Would recommend and return

This is certainly a retreat. Especially great for a pup that likes to hang out in the bushes. Many, many things to sniff and plenty of nooks and crannies to explore. Bruno loved it; even found a new toy in the bin and claimed it as his own (temporarily anyways). 😀 Very nice mix of sunny and shady spots and plenty of seating for the hoomans. We will be back.

This sniff spot was very nice. My dog loves to explore and dig and this the yard allowed for both. We will definitely be back!

It was really amazing! My puppy loved it and he fell in love with the toys that are there for the dogs to use. The pool was filled for us and there was bug repellent for us to use! 10/10!!!

This SniffSpot is wonderful! It's easy to find, secured and beautiful! It has all the things that dogs need: a pool, water bowl, poop bags, trash can with a lid, a longer than usual yard to do zoomies, and TOYS! We have some very satisfied customers and they give all 4 paws and a tail (5 ⭐️!). We highly recommend and we'll come back.

Great backyard and grateful to have an option for my dog to play after being attacked at a dog park. My dog loves smelling plants and had plenty to explore! This was a beautiful back yard and the toys, water, poop bags and amenities are greatly appreciated! Would love to visit again.

This is a great spot. Lots of space and easy to find. We only ran into an issue when first entering as the neighbor on the right’s dog’s greeted us at their gate as we were entering. If you have a highly reactive dog, this could be an issue but we went back to the car, cooled off and tried again and no problem when we returned. The host is very accommodating and the space is beautiful. Great for fetch or just hanging out with your doggos.

We had a great visit. The baby pool was a huge hit. The host was responsive to inquiries also.

FAQ about our Oak Park 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.
