55Excellent experience! This was the first time I rented from sniff spot, and I wanted a safe place where my energetic dog could run, and experience new smells. She is exhausted after only 45 minutes!Vicki J.

55Fantastic place! I have a dog that can be pretty anxious, so it’s hard to take him to dog parks.. this place was a great find! He can be an escape artist, but he was safely contained here. It is a beautiful setting and we can’t wait to return. Shannon S.

55Great spot for Knox to run and e xxx plore. This guy was rescued from a county shelter a year or so ago and then spent ten months in a prison program in Northern California. This may be the first time he has had free roaming in a year or so. So fun! Thanks Ann. We'll be back since we live close. Robert C.

55Beautiful grounds! My pups and I definitely got some exercise. Wear good walking shoes! Lots of stairs. Lots to see and smell. Next time I might bring a pick Nick for myself to enjoy on one of the many resting benches under the bamboo trees:)

55Beautiful land. Hill and some steep stair portions so take it slow if you have physicality issues and you will be just fine. Would love to see it other times of the year. Sat in one spot and just watched the hummingbirds for a bit. Dead silent except up by the house with barking dogs inside. Water was an issue on a hot summer day. Wading pool was murky green and my dog would not drink out of the one water dish by the house. But I had brought our own water jic and we were fine.Jeanne A.

55We hosted a birthday party for our buddy and invited 5 of his best doggy friends to come play! We took advantage of the add-on to rent the patio space and it was perfect for all the humans to hang out. The host went above and beyond to make sure our party was epic and that we felt welcome in her space. Our guests were so impressed with our little shindig and our dog had possibly the best day of his life :) Chantelle J.

FAQ about our Vashon dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Vashon area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog field is Training yard!. The most expensive dog field is Training yard!. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
