The spot was super clean and there were plenty of toys for Beans to play with. The fencing was good for dogs of all sizes and there was plenty of seating for the humans! Instructions were clear and communication with the host was really good!

A great little area in a quiet neighborhood, easy to get to from dc. The yard was clean and there was water and toys. We had a great time!

My dog had an amazing time sniffing and running around. The yard was clean and had plenty of shade for the humans to relax. Great yard to practice recall in! Highly recommend this sniff spot.

Great spot, with toys for the pups and chairs for the humans. I booked pretty last minute, which was great but I think my pup startled the resident dogs and we had a little bark off. All was well after I was able to get my dog to enjoy the sniffs rather than hang out near the door. Would definitely like to return!

Great space partly hill and partly flat. My dogs had a good time running around and sniffing. We will be back!

My dogs had a lovely time at this Sniffspot! Nice spot for two Labs to go for a scamper. Would book again!

Winnie had a great time! She’s an older girl so, when her zoomies subsided quickly, she was able to sit and just watch the squirrels in peace 😌

This was such a lovely spot to find last minute! The slight elevation provided an extra way to wear our pup out and he loves the balls they left out. We also ran out of the water we brought and they quickly responded when I asked during our hour to use their hose. Didn’t see any other dogs or humans along the fence line. Will definitely be back with our reactive pup and his friend!

Lovely hilly backyard tucked in a quiet culdesac. My dog appreciated all the spots to sniff, and I appreciated the multiple seating options, secure fencing, and easy street parking. Only downside is a plethora of fresh blackberries had fallen from a large tree and stained my pups paws. This was a great Sniffspot, I recommend!

This sniff spot was awesome. Lots of space, clean and private. My pup was so excited, he burned out his energy half-way through. We will definitely be back! Thanks again for the opportunity to use this sniff spot!!! Shell & Ace

Fences were more than secure, with no gaps. Plenty of space to run, as well as plenty of seating for people. Host had toys available as well as a water bowl, and there was a hose available if needed.

Since me and the dogs recently moved here from Colorado, we have been staying in a hotel. They haven’t had a chance to be off leash anywhere until today. I thought they would run around like crazy, but all they did was sniff every inch of the yard. It was a nice place with shaded areas.

This is our second time here because it’s such a great spot! Perfectly shady as well which is important in the summer months.

Carissa T.

This was such a great spot for our senior reactive dog. The yard is located in a quiet spot with plenty of parking. There were lots of places to explore and sniff around, plenty of toys, and several places for humans to sit and play as well. There is one area of the fence that you can see through so others with reactive dogs should be aware of that. We didn't see anyone in the neighboring yard so it was all good, but sharing as a heads up. We will definitely be back!

Really nice spot with a lot of shade for those hot days. Our pups loved it, will be back.

Great space for our pup to get off leash and do lots of sniffing! Didn’t hear or see any other dogs!

My dog LOVED this sniffspot! It was a complete hit. He was a huge fan of the tennis ball. We will definitely be back :)

This is a wonderful spot in Silver Spring. The backyard had plenty of space for our boy, Harley, to run and play. Having toys there was great. Harley loved two of the balls. He is a rescue that had never played with a ball before, so this was magical. There are seats and a table for dog parents.

Our pup loved it! Lots of room for running around, and lots of smells. This sniffspot truly lived up to its name. We heard another dog barking and briefly saw the neighbors. The yard is totally fenced in, no worries having our pup off leash. Seating was comfy.

FAQ about our Silver Spring dog parks
