55Absolutely perfect for a worry free play day for any pack! Everything was as advertised. There was lots of space, toys, bowls and I absolutely love the fact that the pond is deep enough for a medium to large size dog to swim, but not enough to worry about them sinking if they aren’t the best of swimmers. 10/10 for me!

55We had a blast! My dogs aren’t really water dogs, but they loved wading and leaping around, playing fetch in the more shallow end! Perfect cool down on a warm day! Definitely will be back!Taryn C.

55This is a lovely spot. Our dogs don’t love swimming so they kept to the side of the pool and traipsed around the field instead. They had a blast. 🐾 Katie G.

55We had such a great time here. We brought 4 dogs and they all immediately jumped in the pond and had a blast. It was pretty easy to find and easy to get in and out. There is a great place to sit and hang out for the humans or even plenty of space to stroll around and get some steps if you prefer. We came prepared for wet dogs, but if not, towels were left out for us to use (I think, correct me if I'm wrong.) We had such a great time and we will be returning as much as possible!! Thank you!!Nick E.

55We had a blast! Our dog had his first experience swimming, and he really enjoyed it. Lots of room to run around, too. Nice sheltered area for the humans to relax. Will be back!Nastassja M.

55I always have an excellent and fun time at this spot, no complaints! I did want to let people know just in case, this has never happened up until yesterday (9/20) when I first showed up there was a flock of wild turkeys in the yard, so in case your dog(s) also like to chase birds maybe make sure to take a look around before letting them off leash!

55Our dogs love this spot! We brought our puppy this time to see if she would swim, and she loved it. It’s great having a great spot so close to home. Gina G.

55It was fabulous. We had a nice place to sit in the gazebo, and the dogs were over the moon, alternately playing in the water and racing around the property.Beverly A.

55Super clean, and so pretty! We have a German shepherd/husky mix who’s pretty much a certified escape artist, and the fences were secure enough where we were able to just relax and let her run around and explore! Definitely would come back :)Alexus P.

55Just as described and more! Amazing space, so peaceful. Chickens can be heard and horses can be seen but even with my reactive dog, these were not issues and he was so happy to be able to explore off leash with some water play!Selena J.

55This was definitely one of the best experiences we’ve had yet. Very clean and spacious. Swimming, and farm living. What’s not to love?
There are chickens on adjoining properties, so I reinforced the training my dogs already have and reminded them to leave the birds alone 🙂Lauren F.

55My dogs loved the property. Our border collie mix fully swam in the deep end of the little pond - first time swimming. Tons to explore. We’ll be back. Jonathan F.

55Our dogs absolutely loved this spot! The swimming pond was such a perfect spot for my Border Collie/Blue Heeler, Mack, to swim like crazy. Lots of toys for him to choose from. Lulu, my Dalmation, loved exploring the extra large place to roam from top to bottom. We will definitely be back soon! Tanya N.

55Beautiful space! Plenty of room for the dogs to run and also lots of areas to explore. And there was even water, a nice big pool! Our smaller dog went swimming twice while our big dog watched. There were balls and other dog toys for them to chase and play with. Lots of sniffing opportunities as well. Would recommend highly and personally just wish it was closer to home so we could come more often. Dogs were exhausted afterwards, perfect.Elaine H.

FAQ about our Cotati dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
