55Gina's had wonderful open space fory dog to roam, and the fencing directions were easy to follow! She made sure to forewarn me about the poop and mud. I didn't know my dog would think it was a delicacy though! I know to bring his bitter spray next time. We really enjoyed Gina's spot--thank you for a great park visit!Morgan R.

55It was a pretty spacious yard! It was clean, with a nice seating set up on the porch. Unfortunately, for us, the yard was quite a bit more of an unsteady incline than I realized, and my pup is not a spring chicken anymore. I do think she’s still enjoyed it! And to no fault of the owner, But it may not be the best set up if your dog is not very agile or not still in their youth. Would still recommend! Very convenient location, still a very nice place for the dog to sit and relax and enjoy the breeze! The owner was also very nice and understanding and her communication was great!Morgan R.

55Great space for a dog reactive pup. Yes there was mud and horse poop but that was expected and did not distract from the experience. So much space to run! My pup loved all the smells and different terrains. Tired him out before the hour was up. Lydia S.

55This Sniffspot is a gem! Lots of hilly terrain, a creek (for the water loving dogs) and sticks for playing catch. I didnt trust my German Shepherd to stay within the boundaries around the horses- he would've gone through the split rail fence to be a menance to those beautiful animals. But if your dog is easily controlled by the split rail fences- try this spot out!Kim W.

55Wonderful spot! The hosts were very gracious and supplied everything you need to allow your pup a great time. The yard was spacious, clean and beautiful! There were dogs in adjacent yards that our pup could see (and bark at briefly!) but this spot was large enough to distract her to another part of the space. Will definitely book again!Susan P.

55This is a great spot for dogs! Big yard, secure fence (even for my 13lb chihuahua that escapes fences), and shaded. There are neighbor fences with dogs, but even my reactive dogs did surprisingly well when the neighborhood dogs came out. And I think Cai loves the Sheltie next door!Christine H.

55We loved this spot! We will definitely be back! The yard is the perfect size for pups to run around and play in a large area while also being able to keep an eye on them. Plenty of seating and plenty of shaded areas for a hot day! My dogs loved the toys provided. We stayed for the entire hour and my pups are happy as can be. Definitely recommend!Kaylee F.

55Our favorite sniff spot yet!! It was incredibly relaxing to lay in the hammock with Blueberry Muffin we would’ve stayed all day if we could!
The hosts are incredible and sent me a couple messages beforehand with updates about parking etc.
There’s plenty of room for pups to run around, explore and sniff to their hearts content! Molly D.

55Perfect spot for lots of exploring, especially for 3 little Pomeranians. The baby pool option was great too! My dogs don't really play with toys but there were lots of options, along with treats and towels for the pool which was considerate. Can't wait to go back!Sara W.

55Great place! The fence is solid, our 15lb dogs couldn't get out. It is a large, long yard and would be perfect for fetch. Our dogs are older and just like sniffing around and it was great for that, too ☺️. The trees offer nice shade and it wasn't muddy despite recent rain. Victoria S.

FAQ About Westerville 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.

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.
