55Great yard and friendly welcome upon arrival! Just wish my pup wasn't so distracted by the chickens! Nothing negative to the host/location they are listed as being there, he just hasn't seen them before and couldn't focus on anything else. Will use this location again if he can get over chickens lolKodi G.

55This sniffspot is great for working as a team with my dog. You play ball with me, five times, you may go look at chimkins. Then, return to me. Is that a deal, Fenney? Yeah, I guess so, but mommy, your chuck it skills need work. Gena W.

55Great amount of space now too far outside Hilliard. Our dogs had an absolute blast and were passed out the rest of the day. Fully fenced, toys, water bowls, small plastic pool. It was all great!!Dakota M.

55Big yard with lots of room to run. Securely fenced and easy to find. I liked being able to drive into the fenced area. My dogs especially loved the chickens and the baby poolLori W.

55With me doing grad school work, my dogs were kind of going stir crazy. We signed up less than 2 hrs of the reservation, and I don’t usually sign up for a time slot so last minute, because I find it rude, but the dogs were getting bored, and I needed a space for them to run around for a bit.
I really hope it wasn’t an inconvenience, but the owners were very nice and my dogs had a really great time.
This spot is one of our favorites and the fact that it’s 5 min away is a bonus.
Thank you!!Carrie K.

55This spot was great! Lots of big open space for our big boys (2 English Mastiffs) to roam, sniff and explore. Loved that you can pull right in, close the gate and just let the dogs out of the car. Great communication from the host as well!Erin B.

55I always love Tiffany’s spot, she is also super accommodating and communicative!🩷 couple of notes for other pet owners:
- TONS of open space, love coming here to work on recall basics, obedience, and fetch!
- there is a chicken tractor on the property, I’ve only seen the chickens out once though but my dogs could smell in the little coop!
- just give her a heads up if your dog isn’t dog friendly, so she can make sure her goldens don’t let themselves out!Sarah K.

55This is a great solution for my 3 Golden doodles
We would highly recommend
Easy to find
Great fencing with a lot of open space for running and playing. Fresh water plus a baby pool that my dogs adored. Hidden spaces for my inquisitive ones to make it never boring but always safe
And the owner is always accommodating

55This was our first time trying Sniff Spot and it was great! One of our dogs is a rescue and reactive to both dogs and people, but Deanna was super understanding and assured us it was a private space. It was large, clean and there were plenty of toys to keep them entertained. We’ll be back for sure!Ann M.

55As always, this spot was the best there is! The peaceful garden tucked in the corner in combination with the pool for Éowyn made this a very peaceful way to spend an entirely too hot day ☺️James C.

FAQ about our Urbana 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Urbana 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 139 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 15 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.
