55My dogs enjoyed a fun day of play today. The grass was mowed short, the yard was clean, and thankfully the temperature was in the the low 50’s. The owner provided us with a clean bowl, bottle of water, and a goody bag. We always feel so welcome when we come!! We will definitely come again!!

55My dog had a great time! Tons of space for him to run and play fetch. The host was great and provided water, treats, bags, and even a sanitizing wipe. It was lovely to meet her. We will definitely be back!!

55Beautiful day and large yard for my dogs to play. I love that it is so private and quiet. The host graciously provided dog bowl, water, dog treats, poo bag, and sanitizing wipe… everything a dog parent would need. My dogs ran to greet the owners once they saw them. Luckily, they love dogs and gave mine the attention they wanted. My dogs rolled in the leaves and enjoyed using their keen sense of smell to check things out. Truly a great spot!!

55My dogs and I had a lovely hour visit this afternoon at a Private dog area in Forest Hill. We could not have asked for nicer weather. It was our first visit to this spot. We entered a private driveway at the end of a cul-de-sac and about 1/4 of a mile in the drive opens to a beautiful home and nice large spot for dogs to run, play, and investigate. The home owner, Linette came out to greet me and my dogs. She was friendly and did a wonderful job making us feel welcome. In the shade, she had a large patio umbrella, wicker/rattan chair and small table set up for us. On the table, she provided a large metal dog bowl, cold water bottle, and a small storage bag with dog treats, doody bags, and map of the spot. Immediately, my dogs were ready to check everything out. Linette was super nice and did not mind when my dogs, Tyson and Chloe decided to check out her garage and patio. There was a pool but it was fenced/gated so dogs would not wander in. The yard backs to woods and my furbabies did find a path to wander onto and sniff around. My dogs enjoyed their off leash time and towards the end of the hour they were relaxing in the grass. As we were leaving, we were able to meet 2 more super nice family members. They gave my dogs lots of attention and Tyson was ready to move in. I am very happy I found and visited this gem of a spot today. I will definitely be back. Thank you to Linette and her family for allowing us to enjoy their beautiful property.

FAQ About Forest Hill 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. 4% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Forest Hill 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 416 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 681 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.
