55A friend and I brought our dogs here, and WOW. The place is huge, perfect for dogs who like to really run. There's also a lot of variety for them to explore, not just a boring grass rectangle. And of course the pond--my dog absolutely loved it! (The photos show him wading, but he's a giant breed; I believe the water's deep enough for most dogs to swim in.)
Note--the neighborhood is like something out of James Herriot; we drove past horses, cows, and sheep up close, and also a couple loose (laid-back) dogs. The neighbors in back of the Sniffspot have chickens moseying around, and the neighbor on one side has a Boxer who really wanted to play, and also a horse who came up to the fence to check out our dogs.
Also note--the fence is actually wire mesh supported by t-posts, and I'd estimate 4 or 4.5 feet tall.
The host was friendly and had set out towels and some cute Easter items for the dogs.
We'll definitely be back!Diane M.

55I love Allison’s yard. The pond is what makes this wonderful, as I have a Newfie that loves to swim. Allison is very congenial and helpful with everything.Wendi M.

55this place is SOOO AMAZING!!! I have never heard of a "private" dog park. and man.....is it just perfect. so much room, and amazing large pond, a pretty awesome view of the slightly rolling hills of petaluma countryside all around you. My baby boy Rowdy had such a blast!!! as well did I. The owner, Allison is really welcoming and very easy to get along with. she makes you feel totally taken care of. whether it be towels, water, toys, WHATEVER!! she has got you! we ended up talking for a good 30 min or so after my appointment. just shoot'n the s#$%. I could not recommend this place with anymore urgency, the price is right and all the extras are great. GO AND ENJOY THIS DOG PARK!!! but leave some time for my pooch and I to still be able to go....

55Had a playdate for my pup's first birthday with her best puppy friend here. The water feature was the main point of attraction and reason for booking as I wanted to introduce swimming for the first time. My pup followed her playmate right into the water, and I was happy to see she was a natural swimmer. The pool was clean, and she had no adverse reaction to the water afterwards. Will definitely return as this has become our new favorite SniffSpot!Susan M.

55Super fun spot! We loved the fully fenced yard. A coupe of neighbor dogs said hi to us while we were there. Curious, but not reactive. Pond for the dogs to wade in. Lots of property for the dogs to sniff and explore. The little touches like the ears for photos and towels were awesome. My little girl was so happy just to roll around in the grass! Property was clean & didn’t have to worry about the dogs getting into trouble. Will be back for sure! Thank you!! Kaeli L.

55This spot is absolutely amazing! We were met at the gate and were given dog towels. They checked on us occasionally to make sure everything was good and we didn’t need anything else. Our 4 labs LOVED the water and running around the large open grassy area. Already talking about our next time back! Thank you so so much!!! Tricia H.

55Alison, was very welcoming and accommodating. The sniff spot is a perfect place to take my two dogs. It’s very clean and provides plenty of opportunities for dogs too let loose and be dogs! It’s very secure and is a beautiful setting. My dog loved the pond and I appreciated the shade and seating that was provided. I will definitely be back!Delia M.

55We had an amazing morning at Allison’s! She was so welcoming for our early morning arrival and had everything we needed. She’s super prompt with communication and instructions and made it very easy to arrive and settle in.
Her property is AMAZING! Our water loving pup went right into the pond (and so did I when I realized the ball we brought didn’t float haha!) and both dogs had a great time running and sniffing. There’s tons of room to play and it is very secure so we weren’t worried about where the dogs were. Allison, I’m sorry one of them decided she wanted to move in and headed to your front door lol… she liked it that much! There were enough local sounds and smells (pigs, roosters, horses etc) to keep them interested in what’s going on but nothing that was distracting or close to the property which we loved! It was actually great to practice recall and training with her too which we loved.
It was so great to see our dogs run around and have fun together. One of them doesn’t have dog park manners, so seeing her play off leash was so great. We have two tired happy pups and will definitely be back! Ashley B.

FAQ about our Pope Valley fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.

How do I know if a fully fenced dog park works for my dog?
Many people looking for fully fenced parks have dogs that are not good with voice control. Start by applying basic filters, such as fences height and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. You can see attributes of fences such as height, gaps and fencing type to find the perfect fenced-in space for dogs.

If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off-leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible near the space.
