55This place is HUGE and so beautiful. We paid for the extra 18 acres and it was well worth it. The dogs had a blast smelling all the little sheep droppings and playing in the space. Leigh was also super friendly and gave us the rundown of the place. We will probably be back when we’re back in the area. Elena C.

55Rover’s Ranch Run was our very first SniffSpot experience, and we couldn’t have been more pleased! The area is well-maintained, peaceful, and had many great “sniffs” for our dog to enjoy. We loved being able to have her run off-leash fetching balls to her heart’s content, which she doesn’t get to do very often. Having a sweet spot like Rover’s Ranch Run to finally have an area to let her run, play, and explore was a heartwarming experience. Thank you so much, Leigh! We’ll definitely be making another reservation at Rover’s Ranch Run soon!Lyndsie D.

55First time using SniffSpot and this place did not disappoint. We enjoyed our time there and will definitely be back! Very nice people and amazing property with tons of space. Also, a nice table area to have a seat. They provide poop bags, a trash can, water, and a water bowl for your pup!
It was very pleasing to see my reactive dog be able to have so much freedom. Great place! Karina A.

55Loved this place! It was so easy to find (good directions posted by host), and it was only 20 mins drive from our own neighborhood, so we'll be back soon. We loved that it was so open and flat, and that our hosts had made plenty of amenities available; we were most appreciative of the box of toys and 'chuck-it' balls, since we didn't have enough of our own. Our dogs had alot of fun, and it was good to meet our host, who came out to greet us just before we were leaving. Easy access in and out, and just a few minutes drive off the 101 off-ramp. Great place, and thank you, Leigh!Paul M.

55Fabulous and beautifully kept as always, despite the rain the owners have done a great job in making drainage good so it has minimized the mud after heavy downpours. Always a pleasure to come here!Deborah d.

55Buddy and I visited Rover’s Ranch and a tired dog is a happy dog so mission accomplished! There is plenty of room to run and play a good game of fetch. The grasses were mowed short which is really helpful this time of year…no burrs and the view looking to the western hills is just lovely. Meghan S.

FAQ about our St. Helena 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.
