55My dogs and I had a blast at Janice’s SniffSpot! Treats and water were left for both people and pups, as well as towels, toys, a water bowl, hose, poop scoop, trash can, and sunblock. The porch and yard were extremely clean, and the open concept makes it easy to keep an eye on your pup! My dogs don’t like to swim, but the pool seemed perfectly suited with multiple built in steps and a shallow area. The yard was huge, and had plenty of room for my 2 dobermans and husky to sprint and wrestle. 1000/10 recommend this spot to any and everyone! Janice was also extremely responsive :) Madison T.

55It was great! My dogs had a blast running in the yard, there was so much space for them to run! My non-swimming dog loved hanging out on the landing and wading around. And the stairs & landing combo were super nice for playing fetch in the pool for my swimmer! The host was super responsive and kind and we had an absolute blast! Brittany S.

55This Sniffspot was outstanding. The grassy yard was fully fenced and had a wonderful pool for cooling off. Cold water, snacks (for people and dogs), and dog toys were provided. The entrance directly into the yard was safe. It was a great spot for myself and my dog to relax after a long day of driving!Mary W.

55This was my first Sniffspot experience and Janice made it a great one! Her place is incredible and truly a pup oasis. Brought two of my pups here and they loved running around in the yard and cooling off in the pool. Definitely would recommend to anyone! Kinsey A.

55Truly an awesome experience. The pool is lovely, and the area was very clean. Rosy appreciated the treats and dry towel. Rosy was so tired she slept all the way home. I'll book another appointment very soon.Sherry W.

55The dogs had a blast! One dog had only gone swimming in rivers before. Once he figured out the stairs, he was Mr. Belly Flop! The other dog loved the shallow ledges. They ran and ran in the large yard. A third dog had to cancel. Thank you to Janice for the snacks, drinks, toys and towels. We'll be back! Rachel M.

FAQ about our Iola 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.
