55Amazing. Like, AMAZING. Truly a special spot that we look forward to booking again. Come summertime, the trees will provide excellent shade for the dogs; there are multiple shaded seating areas for the humans, too. The water feature will be a manageable way to let the dogs cool off as well. Our larger dogs had plenty of space to romp and race around the gardened areas. Beautiful, clean, and tended: glad to have found.Tricia A.

55Magical visit. Monja thought of everything to ensure her guests, pups and human alike, were well taken care of. We didn’t need anything extra during our visit and all the amenities are simply thoughtful. My son and I loved walking through the garden and sitting in the gazebos and different chairs taking in the shade and beautiful surroundings. The sound of birds and the breeze and floating leaves just brought such a feeling of serenity. We didn’t want to leave.
This spot is an absolute gem. We can’t wait to return. Vivian C.

55Best kept secret in Nova for sniff spots. This is the best yard, hands down. It’s huge. It has a stream (most of the year). It has toys. It has a drinking water source. It has a gazebo but also a secondary shelter with seating, a fan and light, and fridge with beverages you can buy for yourself. Our dogs look forward to our weekly visit and as soon as they know we are there, they lose their flipping minds. The owner has been extremely kind and accommodating to our reactive dog. I simply cannot recommend this place enough. Please be considerate if you visit this sniff spot, it is a certified wildlife habitat, so be gentle on the grass and greenery. Everyone should be able to enjoy this wonderful place that the generous owner shares with their yardless neighbors.Robin M.

FAQ About Lorton 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.
