55It was my dog's 5th birthday and we live in an apartment so we don't have a backyard where he can roam and run leash free. He had so much fun and so did I. The backyard is full of interactive activities for dogs. My dog loved it! Will love to book again some time soon!Katrina C.

55I have an 8 year old Shepherd mix heading into his 9th year. Our first visit was full of sniffing, he really enjoyed himself! He is very animal and people selective, so the seclusion was perfect!
Very clean and spacious. The hostess was warm and welcoming. We had a great time! Will be back again!! Amanda R.

55Fudge had the time of his life in the puppy pool this morning! The yard was beautiful and shaded so it wasnโt that hot despite it being 30 degrees out. We will definitely be back for more running and splashing around time (: Hayden R.

55Incredible space!!! While we were staying in Kitchener it was the perfect place for my two girls to unwind and be silly off lead. My partner and myself especially liked the tetherball, haha. The sandbox was a massive hit with both of my girls. Thanks so much for having us! Tiina L.

55Our dog Bruno had a great time so did my daughter. There were lots of activities that kept him busy and was exhausted at the end. Very thoughtfully designed to meet most of the dog and family needs. Really nice experience! Asima H.

55A lovely visit. The dogs were so excited driving, I couldnโt get there fast enough! Lots of zoomies when we got inside. I always appreciate how calm and tranquil the area is even though itโs downtown it still feels like you are out of the city for a bit. Teresa Z.

Water was set out, towels for dirty paws, a huge variety of different activities and toys, and more. We will most definitely be back!Jen C.

55What a great spot. Lots of fun activities and toys for dogs of all sizes. Great big yard just perfect for zoomies and running around. I appreciated the high fence especially having a dog that can hop a fence like itโs nothing. The visit was relatively quiet; just a little noise every now and then from some kids across the street. Very calm atmosphere. I look forward to bringing my dogs again sometime! Thank you.Teresa Z.

FAQ About Kitchener 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. 5% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Kitchener 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 241 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 322 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.
