55Fantastic pool for swimmers and NON swimmers! My pups love to hang out (or run in and out of!) the large area of shallow water. Also lots of shade, and plenty of room to run or play ball. (My favorite as the human, with seats under the tree, or even joining the pups in the wading area of the pool.) Georgette W.

55We had a great time! Our velcro dog didnt need us at all while we were there. Prudence was instantly comfortable and loved exploring the large yard. Both Prudence and Brick loved the pool time. Great pool set up with shallow ledges and easy access in and out for the pups. Brick is turning into a fish!. This is a great place and we will be returning. Maegen D.

55Skits Creek is basically the Rosebud Motel of dog parks—in the best way. Private, chill, and exactly what my dog needed to live their best Alexis Rose life. It’s been a lifesaver for avoiding crowded parks, and has been clean, safe, and super easy to book. Love it!Kaylee W.

55We love this place!
Beautiful pool and great yard. Cooper & I were regulars here and unfortunately we had a setback because of his heart & had to put swimming on the back burner.
But he’s doing better for the time being.
As we got closer and still 5 miles away, he knew we were coming to his favorite place!
We are so grateful that you share your place! It makes me so happy to see him happy and enjoying life! He’s impossible to keep him out of the pool.
Thank you so much.!!
