55Beautiful place for humans and dogs! Our two pitties had a great time here sniffing all the sniffs. It’s clean and interesting for the pups. Lots to smell. Plenty of room to run around in the grass. We will be back. Esti Y. Beautiful place for humans and dogs! Our two pitties had a great time here sniffing all the sniffs.

55One of the best SniffSpots I’ve been to thus far! So much space, fun toys, and an area to dispose of pup waste!! Owner was very responsive and it was easy to get there. Such a great space for a reunion of two best human friends and dog friends♥️Sarah B. One of the best SniffSpots I’ve been to thus far! So much space, fun toys, and an area to dispose of pup waste!!

55We all loved this Sniffspot! It’s very rare to find such a big fenced one so close to San Jose. We had to travel almost an hour to find anything like this.
Not only is it convenient for us but our dogs absolutely loved it. They ran and chased each other about for over half an hour. I’ve not seen them run like that in months!
The Sniffspot has a variety of turfs and experiences for the dogs. The large lawn is great for running and playing fetch, the trees provide shade for the pups to rest under and there are tons of other objects and smells for the dogs to explore.
It’s also quite safe, the pool is covered and the pond is fenced. All the plants in the yard that I could recognize were perfectly safe for dogs.
Overall, I would highly recommend Val’s Sniffspot and I’ll definitely be coming back!Leela P.

55This place is amazing! My puppy enjoyed his time here so much. Very clean and well coordinated. It was very quiet during our stay here and the place has more than enough room to run around for dog and human. Will definitely be coming back. Kaylee K. This place is amazing!

55The dogs really loved exploring this beautiful yard. There is a lot of space for games of tag and my squirrel hunter loved exploring the trees along the perimeter. The yard is fully fenced, but we are asked to keep dogs away from the pool and gardens, which was sometimes tricky for my dog with less than ideal recall. The host was very kind and responsive. We had a great experience and will definitely be back again!Katie R. The dogs really loved exploring this beautiful yard.

55What a gorgeous spot! We stopped here mid-road-trip to let our pup stretch her legs. She absolutely loved it. So many lovely plants to sniff!! And such a huge amount of space to RUN!Charlotte W.

55Ollie had a blast! There’s a lot of room to run full speed and a lot of different areas to explore. Our hosts really go the extra mile to welcome anyone who come to use their yard. Kim C.

55This Sniffspot hit all the marks for me. It’s very neat and clean. It’s very spacious & on a beautiful property! It’s safe with secure/high fencing and also in a gated community. What else could you need? They leave water bowls out as well as some toys and potty bags. Super friendly hosts who are very accommodating. I had some questions and they were very responsive. Def bringing my pup back for another visit! Loved watching him roam curiously.. so much to sniff! He was exhausted after. I do want to mention there is a pool but there is a covering on top of it. :)Kimberly M.

55This is a great spot! Big, lots of grass for running and bushes and plants for sniffing. My younger dog can exercise and my older dog can sniff to his heart's content.
Be aware, though, that while the fencing is very secure, it is chain link and see-through, and the rear neighbors have a dog. The dog did not bother us or even come near the fence, but it was both visible and audible at times.Kelsey D. This is a great spot! Big, lots of grass for running and bushes and plants for sniffing.

55My lab puppy LOVED this spot especially the kiddie pool. So many places to sniff and explore and plenty of room to run around and let out his zoomies. Toys, treats and other necessities are available for use including drinking water for the pups. Beautiful space, we can’t wait to visit againSophia O.

55Another great visit at this spot. This was our first time doing a doggy playdate and it went really well! Both dogs got a lot of exercise and my son enjoyed the play area once again.
The tub of toys and tray of amenities were moved to their umbrella table outside their backdoor fyi.Desiree T. Another great visit at this spot. This was our first time doing a doggy playdate and it went really well! Both dogs got a lot of exercise and my son enjoyed the play area once again.

55This was our second time visiting this Sniffspot. The dogs loved the large grassy area- they chased each other around and played fetch. There were a few muddy spots from the rain the previous day- so our Lab did end up quite muddy 😅. Val did have wipes to use, which was very thoughtful given the weather.Leela P.

55This is a great spot. The landscape is varied with spacious manicured lawn, tan bark trees and shrubs exceptional! Plenty for my pooch to investigate. Any questions review the 100 plus photos.
Communication with host was great.
They even provide amenities. Toys, poop bags water and treats!

55We had so much fun here! The yard is absolutely beautiful. It has a big green area, lots of corners and plants to sniff, toys and fresh water. We will definitely be back.
For anyone curious about how their reactive dog will do here- there was a dog barking occasionally in the yard to the side. However, we couldn't see it and there is so much space between the two spaces that it was no problem. Our dog is *very* dog reactive. Hope that helps!Margaret F. We had so much fun here!

55This spot is beautiful. The grass is well groomed and the perimeter areas along the fully enclosed fence add a touch of wilderness within the back yard. Our guy did exploring around the whole area but primarily stayed on the grass with us to play fetch. Overall very safe community, safe sniff spot, and is exactly as advertised from the pictures.
