555/5! This yard is SO NICE!!!!! It’s bigger than it looks in the pictures. It is clean and well-kept and the fence is secure. There are big shady trees and a nice patio with a table, chairs, and umbrella (and even a cooler with drinks!!!) for humans. For the dogs, there were poop bags, toys, treats, a bed, kiddie pool, and a large bowl of water. Disco had a blast running the length of the yard and chasing all the toys. He will sleep well today!
The neighbors have dogs that were out when we got there but they put them away. The spot owner was very communicative and friendly and showed us how to get in the gate. Susie O.

55Tessa went above and beyond to help make my pup's birthday perfect. I cute little sign saying Happy Birthday and treats and a birthday hat for Winter. Her yard is huge. She set up the pup pool for me and arranged the chairs into the shade for me because I'm on crutches. Winter had so much fun being able to run free and jump around in the pool. We can't wait to come back Cassandra L.

55We had so much fun playing in Alisha’s yard! Our pups were tired a few minutes into our 30 minutes from getting to run around. Was super cute and private - no one came in or out while we were there which was perfect for our dog who is fearful of strangers. We will definitely be back!tiffany j.

55Great little backyard to just let our dog go crazy!
He had a lot of fun and enjoyed all of the toys that were available!
There was a small bin that looked like it might have been for waste, but we weren’t sure if that was the intent so we took it with us.
Would definitely recommend!Alan S.

55This yard is so cute and had everything we needed for our pup to have a great time! She loved playing with the toys in the yard and frolicking in the grass. The fence was secure and high enough to provide plenty of privacy. The host is super sweet, highly recommend this sniffspot! Courtney R.

FAQ about our West Chicago 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the West Chicago 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 384 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 48 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.
