Why rent a private dog park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania?
55Just moved to Philly and this has been a great addition to our morning routine. My dog absolutely loves this place, it is a perfect mix of having room to run and play fetch while also all the things to sniff and explore. And although the spot is facing the street, it is not too busy. Have seen a couple people walk by so that’s definitely a possibility but it’s not constant at all. Heidi S.

55Wonderful! I brought a shelter dog who desperately needed some time in nature, and she was a completely different dog by the end of our time there. It did wonders for her. I loved the cooler of water and bug spray for guests, and we easily parked right in front of the gate. We will def be back. Jennie L.

55Loved this space so much. It was perfect & relaxing. Very few people and no dogs walked by! It’s a pretty large space given that it’s situated in the city. Host was great and made sure there was water. I’ll 100% be back. Sofia M.

55Great as always. We visit every few weeks and we really enjoy experiencing the changes the spot undergoes through different seasons. It was really chilly last weekend so I’m excited about starting to have fire there again! Christopher is a great host and I’m so so happy he’s willing to share this space with us! Alana K.

55Had a great time running around with my pup at Oz’s! My dog likes being around other dogs, but do not enjoy the artificial grass at local dog parks. We live in a typical South Philly row home with a tiny backyard, so finding Sniffspot was a game changer! We don’t own a car, so accessibility to BSL is also a huge plus. Located in a relatively quiet residential neighborhood and has secure fences. There is a shaded area with chairs, but I brought a picnic blanket and it worked great! My pup enjoyed the afternoon sun and breeze between zoomies and we walked back home to unwind. It is super walkable to Center City surrounding neighborhoods if you and your dog are into walking through the city. Osvaldo was an amazing host. Very responsive and was understanding when we had to change our booking time last minute due to some scheduling conflict. Would definitely be back for some spring sun! Alana K.

FAQ about our Philadelphia 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 Philadelphia area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 404 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 55 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby.
