55Addie was sooo happy here! We only explored the big area, and Addie loved running around and seeing the horses next-door. There was a kiddie pool as well as some buckets filled with water for Addie to drink in the yard. Before entering the yard, there was a table with bug spray, hand sanitizer, a first aid kit, doggie poop bags, and some toys, which were all so thoughtful. We will definitely return!Alyssa J.

55My sister and I and our combined three dogs have started making this a regular excursion from DC. Our dogs love it so much, and it's nice to sit in the shade of the tall trees and watch them run and play. Thanks, Marygrace, for sharing your beautiful space!Sarah G.

55Our first time at this blissful spot. My dog Moses had a great time. He is a fearful and reactive and Marygrace was 100% understanding of that. We walked the perimeter on leash as suggested but also think it was good to do so he could take it all in before letting him off leash to do whatever the heck he wanted. YaY!!Kim J.

55This is our second time to this spot and the first for our friends. The pool was a big hit and everyone loved the space. Can’t wait to visit again. Marijean Z.

55Great spot, all aspects of the yard are well kept from the flowers/plants to grass and walkways. Looked intentional but there was also a pile of big sticks next to the toy box that my pup liked chasing.
I came here for a quiet training spot and having the wood fencing cover the yard it was less distracting for my pup than a public place. Darius Q.

55Still my favorite spot to take my reactive dog. He is people- and dog- reactive; while we didn't hear any dogs while we were there, we did here some people (the yard backs up to a commercial alleyway). Just a warning if your dog is super-sensitive to people talking. Also, remember to wear/bring bug spray! We forgot and I got quite a few bites (but I'm a mosquito magnet, so I should've known better). Thanks for having us over, Odie loves it there!Shannon H.

55Another fabulous morning at our favorite SniffSpot. It’s so enjoyable to sit and relax while watching Ivy roam around the backyard. It’s clean, secure, nice high fences and there is always fresh water, balls and other toys available. Karen E.

55This is a great spot for our little pup. She wore herself out chasing toys - some ours, some left by the host. The yard is very clean and relaxing, with a lovely garden and comfy chairs for the humans. The host left two big bowls of fresh water, and our pup was happy to imbibe. We will be back! Katie S.

55Lovely yard with plenty of space for pups to run around! And there are plants and flowers around the yard for dogs to sniff. There’s a nice table and comfortable chairs on the patio, too. We’ll definitely come back. Jess G.

55Another perfect experience here! We came around 6p so it was already dark, but the lights gave our pup the chance to run around. Roxann put out two bowls of fresh water for our birthday guy and as always, a ton of tennis balls!
It's a great spot to escape from the city!David P.

FAQ about our Prince Frederick 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 Prince Frederick 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 319 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 37 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.
