55Dana and her beautiful yard are wonderful!!! This yard was absolutely perfect for my three pups to burn off some very pent up energy after being in a vehicle for three days (we are travelling). My pups had major zoomies, played with the supplied balls and lapped up the water like they were a bunch of college kids at a frat party. I swear they checked out every corner and I felt safe letting them do that because it is very secure. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better yard or host for my bull terrier and her little high energy sidekicks (lovingly known as whirling dervishes). Definitely worth a five star review. And I’m happy to report all three pups give 12 paws up for Dana’s Private Dog Park (they are exhausted and laying on their backs).Colleen B.

55First time Sniffspot user here and this was a great experience for my 3 doggos and I! Plenty of grassy area and space for the doggos to run. Brought my daughter along and she enjoyed the swing set that was available as well overall a great spot for the dogs and kids would definitely recommend and will be booking again! Veronica O.

55It is a pretty clean yard. Loved the open space. My dog was running around the entire time. Has some toys in the yard and pooper scooper. Went in the evening and there’s small lights lining the backyard. Would book this again. 😁Connie S.

55The backyard was nice with lots of spaces for my one pup, Ruby, to explore. My other pup, Rusko, also had a blast playing fetch with the big stuffed dragon he found there. There was ample shade to keep cool, and water bowls right next to the hose. Getting the gate open from both sides was a little confusing, but if you just use you brain a little, you’ll figure it out.
For those of you who have VERY reactive dogs - I could hear the sniffspot owner’s dog right on the other side of the door that leads to the backyard. He only barked a few times and my pups weren’t bothered by it, but I know some dogs may be more territorial and try to fight (even though there’s a door in between them), so keep that in mind. You can also hear dogs barking outside directly next door (again, my dogs were not bothered by it, but I know that some are).
All-in-all, it was a lovely backyard which is super close to my condo so we will be back again! Monique R.

55This was our first time using SniffSpot and what a great intro. The yard was clean with lots of toys and sniffy spots. The location was easy to locate with lots of parking and clear instruction on how to enter the yard. Rebecca K.

55Easy access.. big yard with grass area and LOTS of balls :) we went from 7-8 pm and it was shady and cool.
We took our two Weenies and they enjoyed running, sniffing and rolling around on the grass. They were a little distracted by the owners dog barking ,when we first arrived but it was not a problem. Marion D.

55My pup had a great time here and the yard was impeccable. Just a note for those who have dogs prone to chasing/reacting to cats: the owners have a cat who was outside and my dog went after it. The cat is not afraid of dogs so it was hard to get it to move and stop my dog fixating on it. It's no fault of the owners of course and I was able to use the incident for training my dog to not chase but it was stressful initially. Farah S.

55Great place. Simple little yard for the pups to run around in and play with the many balls laid out throughout the yard. Left the dogs tired enough for a good nap.Erica M.

I can’t recommend this Sniffspot enough! The space was perfect — clean, safe, and thoughtfully maintained. My dogs had an absolute blast exploring and burning off energy. It was clear that the host put a lot of effort into making sure every detail was taken care of. They were incredibly friendly, responsive, and welcoming, making the whole process smooth from start to finish.
If you’re looking for a secure and peaceful spot for your pups to run free, this is it! We will definitely be back soon. Thank you so much for providing such an awesome place!Breeana C.

55Spacious and clean yard. My pup had the best time playing fetch. Can hear the neighborhood dogs, but it was just us in the space. They do have balls and chuck-its available and even a little patio set in the shade for the humans. Will be recommending to friends nearby. Kintin C.

FAQ about our Orange 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Orange 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 502 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 61 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.
