55We had a great experience! Our dog had so much fun running and playing in the yard. She’s fearful of dog parks, so it was a real treat to see her zooming around and being carefree. The neighborhood is quiet, and we accessed the yard via a side gate. There was a small gap in the fence opposite the house, but I think only a small dog could squeeze through if they were really trying. We weren’t worried about our 45-pound pup getting out, and the fencing was very secure overall. Our girl was totally tuckered out after 40 minutes and had been napping since we got home. We would definitely visit again!Emily C.

55Perfect size yard with plenty of bushes and corners for my hound to sniff out! Appreciated the dog bowl and garden hose.
Host was flexible with arrival time and very responsive.

55The yard is spacious, with lots of room to run around. The fence was tall and my very energetic dog had a blast zooming in the grass. By the end of the hour, he was exhausted and happy. We entered through the gate in the fence. Overall, a very easy and fun trip. I will definitely be going back. Amelia B.

55Great yard. Flat, shady and the fence is solid enough that my dog wasn't terribly interested in the neighbors who happened to be out enjoying the gorgeous day as well. Katrina M.

55My first Sniffspot experience, and it was perfect. The quiet, shady, fully fenced backyard as perfect for my reactive girl Luna. She had so much fun playing fetch with the tennis balls. The water bowl and hose were much appreciated, too. Humans: don’t forget your bug spray in the summer months! Anna H.

55My 4 year old rescue who tolerates other dogs but is overwhelmed at the dog park really enjoyed having a fully fenced backyard to romp and roll around in. There was a water bowl set out even though we brought our own which I thought was super thoughtful & nice. We didn’t see or hear any other dogs while there. My dog was exhausted for the rest of the day! Remember to bring your bug spray! Allyson M.

55Just as described! Perfect sized yard to run my six-month old cattle dog until he was too pooped to pop while my ten-year-old terrier did some sunbathing! several balls / toys around. Superb.Rebecca M.

55The fence is very secure, and the yard is clean. There was a small patch of ram/beige crumbly things by the entrance that my puppy kept eating. Not sure what that was. Otherwise, I think they would have had more fun if it wasn’t so hot (obviously, that can’t be controlled by the host) Young S.

55Great yard, plenty of toys and space to run. The host was super gracious and greeted us when we arrived and made sure to secure any entry points to the house (for curios/enthusiastic sniffers). Great experience overall, will definitely be back.Helene E.

55The dogs had a grand time sniffing all over the property. They didn't get in the pool, but the people cooled off in it and enjoyed it a lot. The property is very nice, the fence is big and secure (the gate is a little balky but just persist), and there is nice shade, good seating, and balls for the dogs to play with.Karin C.

55What a great space! I have 2 dogs - one loves to swim. The other has yet to learn and this was such a great space to get him into the water. Clean pool and very nice yard as well. We will be back I’m sure! Kim B.

FAQ about our Potomac 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 Potomac area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 355 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 60 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
