55Incredible options and a ton of space for running. I have two small dogs (11 & 15 pounds). Both were safe inside the fence. They loved the tunnels, balls, and the small pool. Thank you for a fantastic time!Shelby D.

55This spot was fantastic. Lots of space for the pups to play, run, and explore. The host provided poop bags, water dishes and a water dispenser, a filled baby pool, toys... I mean it was a DREAM for a dog that rarely gets to be off leash!!! Stephanie H.

55We were excited about coming here but it started lightening right as we were arriving. The hosts were very responsive and provided us a quick refund on the visit due to the danger of being outside in a lightning storm. Appreciated that and looking forward to coming again ! Diana K.

55Hi! Great experience. He would not leave the big balls and was wearing himself out so I put them inside of the stack of tires. He was very tired out which is our goal. We ate a nice lunch while the dog was playing with the balls. I left them inside of the tires or we would not have gotten him out of there. My husband loved the sofa in the shade.Pat B.

FAQ About Sykesville 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. 3% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Sykesville 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 587 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 881 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.
