Large Private Fenced Yard in Manhattan | Sniffspot
55Andrea’s yard is beautiful and very well kept! Our dog loved getting to run free and sniff. There were lots of toys left out, an ice water dog bowl (which was a huge hit) and water bottles for the humans. We will definitely be coming back and couldn’t have had a better experience! Emily T.

55Our Sophie had a great visit. We asked if the hostess would bring out her dog to play, and both dogs had a great time. There were toys, costumes, a tunnel, and a water bowl for the dogs. The yard was nice size for running and it wasn't all flat so there was running up and down. I highly recommend Common Scents sniff spot. We certainly will be back.Kim H.

55We have been to this sniff spot several times now and it is a great space! This time there were neighbors’ dogs barking on both sides (no fault of this sniff spot owner!). It luckily gave us a great training opportunity but we had to cut our time a bit short since my reactive dog was getting a bit overwhelmed. The spot still gets 5 starts from us because we still had fun getting some energy out after all of the recent cold days. Megan L.

55This was our first time using Sniffspot & it was awesome! We’re on a cross country trip and our pup loved the opportunity to run around and explore. Emily was so accommodating and thoughtful. Lots of toys, treats, puzzles and even a towel to wipe his paws. We especially loved the dog customs photo props :)Melissa S.

FAQ About Manhattan 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.
