55This was a gorgeous space to spend a sunny afternoon with the pups! We have two large Cane Corsos who loved running around the big yard. Only heard one bark from the household doggo when we arrived, after that it was super quiet & felt very safe to let our (good recall) dogs off leash to explore. Melissa C.

55Had our first visit to Seth's spot today. What a great yard! It has everything. Fully fenced and grassy, sun and shade, lots for the dog to check out. (Beautiful hostas, we're keeping an eye on our dog who thinks everything green is a salad bar for her. She left the hostas alone. Although she did steal the cheese stick we brought to reward (bribe) her with, plastic wrapper and everything. For her this is a good day though! Thanks, Seth. We will be back!

55This is my second time here. Seth is responsive and great. Backyard is clean and has so much for the pups to sniff! I have a reactive dog and mostly all the yard has a very tall privacy fence (minus the entrance gate) which I love! Francia F.

55Clean, quiet, enough shade to stay cool, clean water provided, lots of places to sit if you get tired before your dog does. I was a little worried about the gate spacing before we arrived because my lean mini poodle has squeezed through some tiny gaps in the past, but everything was very secure and we had no issues. Overall great place to run around and play fetch (-:Oliver C.

55We had such a nice time for Sophie's first off leash experience! It was lovely and clean and peaceful! (We did find out that Sophie may be in a stones/rock eating phase but it was good to discover this in an enclosed controlled environment!) The host was a great communicator and Sophie and I appreciate the hospitality!Ann A.

FAQ About Scarborough 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. 6% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Scarborough 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 56 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 140 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.
