55Great spot for my two malamutes to stretch their legs after a road trip to Florida from Ohio to visit for Christmas. Host was very responsive with my questions. The yard was clean, secure and did the trick, both dogs are sleeping now!Mary Catherine K.

55Went back for a 2nd time because my dog had so much fun. It was cooler weather this time so he got some great exercise without getting too hot. As before, the property was clean & stocked with toys & water. Thank you again for providing an awesome place for my dog to get some great exercise & have some fun!Peter C.

55This was my first visit to a Sniff Spot and it was fantastic. My two-year-old husky pitbull mix really enjoyed that open space to run. My totally blind, 18-year-old German pinscher had a field day wandering around with all the new smells. We will definitely be back!Lindsay H.

55This is exactly what we’ve been looking for. Our dogs loved every second of it. They were able to run around and just be dogs in a safe fully fenced 3 acre area. We will definitely be back. Kayleen C.

55This Sniffspot has been life changing for my dog and I. The owner is the most friendly person and has amazing energy. I had a chance to meet her and she was so sweet and welcoming. I would recommend this Sniffspot based solely on her kindness and understanding of my Lily and her reactivity. But then also add the actual land, which is beautiful, spacious, and peaceful, this is the best Sniffspot! 11/10!Jim D.

55What a wonderful spot! Very large, serene, well kept space with lots of opportunities for activities and training. Loved the obstacles and the water trough. The shade provided a nice rest from the sun. Beautiful scenery around the property. Toys and seats for convenience. I was very impressed. Tom N.

55First time here and we will be back! So much land to run around freely. Maintained well. Fencing secure. Quiet and beautiful. I was able to get exercise and so was my girl, Lily. And off leash for the first time ever! Loved this spot and the host was super friendly and welcoming. Lily had so much room to explore and she left a tired happy girl. Immediately laid down in the car. Haha She approves and loves it!Jim D.

55The land was well groomed and maintained. Griffin had fun exploring and training. The fence was secure. When we first got there we heard dogs but the barking stopped shortly after we arrived. It did not bother my dog, who can be made nervous by barking dogs. I think it was muffled and far enough away (over 50ft). We will be back.Heather C.

FAQ about our Wildwood 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 Wildwood 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 282 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 35 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.
