55This is a really large bit of wilderness in the middle of a residential area. We enjoyed walking around under the oak trees and playing with balls in the back part of the spot. Once back there we couldn’t see the street/unfenced part.
The entrance to the spot is easy to find with the address Robert provides, and I appreciate that he met me there the first time.
There weren’t many, but as with most places around here, there are some stickers to check for when we left.
Great, unique spot! We’ll be back!Amanda B.

Wendy's 0.5 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park with pool In Citrus Heights | Sniffspot
55The entrance is easy to find and I like that it has one main gate to enter the backyard and then another gate to enter the area where the grass and pool are. We were unable to try out the pool because it was getting treated which the owner informed me about prior to my visit, but we hope to be back another time to check it out.
The grass was very soft and green, the patio area was nicely covered. There is also a gravel area near the pool and a ramp to enter the pool.
The neighbor does have a dog that was outside during our visit which I was surprised my dog didn’t bark at as she does with our neighbor’s dog.

55We had a great time at this Sniffspot! The area was beautiful with benches and plenty of space to walk and sniff. My dog especially loved the pond in the middle of the property. It felt peaceful and well-maintained.
That said, there was no signage to clearly mark the spot when we arrived, which caused a little confusion. Also, while the back of the property is gated, the front borders a road with no physical gate or fence separating it—something to keep in mind if your dog is prone to wandering. You can hear and see people nearby, but it still felt private enough for a good visit.
Overall, a really enjoyable spot, and we’ll definitely be back!

55We had a great time, so many different parts to explore. I kept my dog on a long line because his recall isn’t 100% but it was still so much fun. My dog was exhausted by the end of the visit. We hope to visit again soon. Brielle L.

55We were a little concerned about the fencing situation, but it was early on a Sunday & once we crossed towards the back part of the property it was AWESOME! Ms. Ruby & I had a wonderful time & Ruby discovered she loves to kick up dust chasing balls! Thanks for sharing this property with the doggos Robert! Gina L.

55Really lovely spot! Not too many foxtails and they’re pretty easy to avoid. Lots of big logs for confidence building if that’s your thing. Definitely make sure your dog has a good recall or is on leash, if they WANT to escape they for sure could, but if you trust/have control over your dog this place is perfect! Julia C.

55This place worked well for our needs and our pup had a great time! This time of year there were many stickers to contend with, but it didn’t dampen our experience. There was also PLENTY of shade and seating in various places on the property, which made us feel more comfortable in the heat. We will surely return!Candace N.

55It’s hard to imagine that this space is in Citrus Heights . I was a little worried about goats but they were enclosed behind an electric fence and luckily Cleo didn’t get that close , it was a great opportunity to practice recall.
The dogs had so much space to really run which was fantastic as well as to explore and sniff . Today was a cooler day so that made this excursion even better . And there’s also green grass areas too , not all dried up Sally W.

55This spot is exactly as described. The owner met us at the entrance, the instructions provided were easy to follow and I found the entry straight away. He let us know of some items to lookout for and that there would be some workers on the property. There are foxtails as previously noted, but I didn’t find them to be an issue and our dog is a doodle- so everything sticks to him. If your pup loves adventuring and interesting terrains, this spot is for you! Jordan M.

55This was our first time trying out this park, and we had an amazing time here. It was beyond beautiful and such a sight to witness and experience for the first time. We really enjoyed walking around the area and discovering the gardens, pond(s), and creek(s). Our dog, Poppy, had the time of her life! She got a LOT of run time in, and she also explored many things out there like all dogs do. The pond was her favorite part, as she kept running around in circles, going faster and faster with each step that she took. We didn’t get to see the goats until we were leaving the area, but it was still a beautiful day to experience at this location. For our first time, we definitely weren’t disappointed, and we surely will be back here soon. Thank you very much! Ericka L.

55My dog had fun exploring at this spot! It’s like having a private hiking area. Since it’s not fully fenced and there are goats nearby, use common sense depending on your dog’s recall. Mine was a little too interested in the goats for me to be comfortable letting him off his long line when we walked near them. There are patches of foxtails so do use caution. I brought a foxtail mask and had him wear it in those areas so we didn’t have any issues. Also, I recommend humans wear long pants and boots! Grace A.

55This was the most delightful spot. The host went out of his way to assist my grandmother on a golf cart around the property. He was gracious enough to show and let us feed the goats. The property was beautiful with a variety of equipment and terrain. We loved the pond. Ashlyn H.

55This was a great spot. It was super confusing to find at first, we thought it was just a river entrance but once the host helped us out with directions, it was smooth sailing.
The dogs had a blast with the goats, got zapped from the fence but we touched it (the humans) to ensure it wasn’t too bad. It had a pond with frogs and my water pup enjoyed it. We’re planning to go back in the future! breanna m.

55Great place for Jax to explore in a controlled environment. Areas of foxtails but pretty easy to avoid generally. Jax loved walking along the creek bed and running freely amongst the woods! He also went for a little dip in the pond to cool off. Chase C.

FAQ About Citrus Heights 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.
