55This was our first Sniffspot experience. It was really lovely. Our host ,Wendy even put freshly cut flowers out on the patio table. We had decided to opt it for a picnic blanket under the shade of the neighbours tree. Our puppy loved the freedom to run and play fetch. It was lovely to watch her have so much fun. Our older pup enjoyed lazing and a little stroll around.
There were two toy boxes, filled with big sticks, bubbles, tennis balls.... you name it.
We had a go at the "Tip-a-Treat" game which is set up. Bring your own treats, which we did and see how your pup does.
The deck /patio is really great with a nice table and chairs and umbrella.
The space of the actual back garden is just right , it felt very welcoming and was perfect for our needs. Very neat and clean.
I would highly recommend this venue and host.
And would love to have a Pup Party there.
Thank you Wendy, we all had such a lovely time.

55Secluded and private feeling yard with lots of seating, nice shade from the sun and little hideaway spots, yet still had long enough stretches to throw a ball for fetch.
Host had prepared a fresh bowl of water and some poop bags as well. Eleni K.

55I would absolutely recommend Wendy's to everyone! You can tell from the moment you get there that she clearly really cares about dogs. She has everything your dog might need; water bowls, toys, sticks, a little pool, towels, and more. Sonja H.

555/5 stars — we will definitely visit again soon! The space is just as depicted; clean and plenty of room to play. There were decent pockets of shade for us to cool down in towards the back and side edges of the yard. Blessed to find this fenced space that was available on a holiday!!! :)Autumn S.

55Awesome yard with everything your dog could ever need. Loved the pool but Yogi isn’t much of a swimmer (yet!) but he was just happy to get to run around, play with toys and roll in the grass : ) Kristina C.

Beautiful fully fenced backyard In West Hartford | Sniffspot
55Jenna’s sniffspot is absolutely magical. Robin had a blast exploring and soo many good sniffs:)
The yard is very well kept and all the plants are so beautiful.
I kept Robin on a long line because she is a veryy tiny escape artist and tries to squeeze through any fence gaps - the yard is fully fenced and safe.
Robin is a total tick magnet and did not pick up any ticks from this sniffspot!Sydney V.

FAQ About West Hartford 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. 8% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the West Hartford area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 222 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
