55I’ve been to a couple of SniffSpots and they were great! This Spot however, exceeded every expectation and more! Smells, sniffs and places to run galore! Our host was amazing and upon arrival, she showed all of the highlights her Sniff Spot had to offer! Grassy areas, open places for my dogs to run around, splash zones, Sniff Spot parking and an abundance of toys. Each area had appropriate signage and was easy to navigate. My two dogs are so happy…and oh so tired! We will definitely be back! Ann M.

55Our dog had a great time in this yard. It was big and spacious for her to run around in, the yard was really well maintained, and the owners were very nice.Idiz C.

Our dog had a great time in this yard. It was big and spacious for her to run around in, the yard was really well maintained, and the owners were very nice.
55Yard is well maintained and big for running and fetch. The covered seating area wasn’t covered, I think the shade had just fallen over but outside of that, all was as described. My 2 dogs had a great time, for majority of our hour.
This is tough and I considered not mentioning it, because this wasn’t something the host could’ve controlled, but my Golden is very anxiously reactive to loud sounds, specifically large trucks. The neighbor appears to own a tow truck company, and about 30 minutes into our hour, he’d come home and pulled his very large tow truck into his backyard. While he was friendly and said hello, and happily ignored my Aussie barking at him, he didn’t just park and that was it. He had some things to move around and then he maneuvered his truck back out again 10 minutes later. At that point, my Golden just couldn’t move past her panic attack from the noise. She was mentally done with playing and just paced the gate to leave, and we left a little shy of our hour.
I love this app and the concept of sharing spaces for our community of dogs! This is a nice yard for pups, I wouldn’t give a reduced rating for this! I still give this host 5 stars because like I said, it’s nothing they have control over! But I do mention it here because it’s important for anyone else with a dog like mine. 💜🙏🏼Rian R.

55This is my first time using this. I have an Australian Shepherd that I run most mornings but he still has to get his Aussie run on and I don’t have a yard. Mimi’s is just like a private dog park without the drama ! It’s 4 min away from me so it’s like having my own yard. Ranger had a blast! It was clean and the communication with the host was great. I will definitely be back ! Stefanie B.

55My dogs - little ones, Chihuahua mixes - absolutely LOVED this Sniffspot. Max is an escape artist, but he didn't even try to leave this site. There was so much to explore. Sniff.
There are some ducks and chickens in a pen, and the host apparently put them back in there before our visit, which wasn't necessary... my dogs won't mess with birds. Or cats.
We met the chocolate Lab Sire. What a big sweetheart! He played with my dogs and really got them going, as in exercise. They don't get much exercise at home.
The fencing is secure. If your baby reacts to other critters, there were a couple of Rottweilers next door, and of course, the cat and the penned-up chickens and ducks. But my dogs loved sniffing around to see what was going on.Laura P.

55We loved it. This was our first sniff spot ever and our golden retriever loves to swim. Well she got to swim her heart out. We booked for 2 hours but only needed 1 with how tired the pups got. Also host was very accommodating with the south Florida weather and rescheduling!
Clean, fun, beautiful! Thank you!Rhea R.

FAQ about our West Palm Beach 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 West Palm Beach 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 201 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 30 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.
