55Easy to get to, amazing space, great communication with the owner. My dogs had a blast and we ended up packing it in early because they were so exhausted. Will definitely be coming back again!Shelby H.

55Large, clean space for running. I was there in the evening and there were deer in the front and back of the property that distracted my dog who is reactive to that. Would definitely go back and try a different time slot. Kristen B.

55We're so grateful for this sniff spot. Our pup needs to RUN, and we just don't have the space for that at our house. She loves it. And as a huge bonus, the space is beautiful and peaceful, so it's great for the humans as well! Thank you host family!Elizabeth H.

55This property was beautiful! However, if your dog is a poop eater, this is not the place for you. Not to the fault of the owner, there was a lot of other dog & deer poop that my dogs were having a field day with Caroline C.

55The ranch is the perfect spot to bring your fur babies to run around! Lots of fun smells to sniff and sights for them to see. It was very nicely maintained. There were both flat spots and hilly spots that my dog really enjoyed. Just amazing through and through! Can’t recommend enough!Sierra B.

55The space is beautiful and peaceful. Directions are way to follow but if you're using google maps you have to turn off Greenspring to a side road and will find the spot very easily. Communication with host was great and we wound up booking some extra time. Will definitely be back when it's warmer but I did enjoy the drive and seeing all of the local farms outside of Baltimore.

55My dogs had an amazing time visiting. The chairs and toys were greatly appreciated. The space is well maintained and would fit the needs for any pet owner. We will certainly be back and have already highly recommended Sniff Spot and this location to our friends with animals as well. Thank you so much for having us. Evelin P.

55What an absolutely fantastic space! The fence is very secure, the years is exceptionally clean, and the area is quite large with a lot of variation (trees to hide behind, etc) for my pups to chase each other around in. We had a fantastic time and can’t wait to go back! Sarah F.

55This is a truly beautiful yard, thank you so much for sharing it on Sniffspot!!! I’ve been having a hard time finding a place to walk because none of the sidewalks or parks near me have been cleared of snow still so I was SO happy to find a safe place my dogs could run around off leash and play!!! They had the best time, thank you again. For others: This yard was so spacious and had so many places for the dogs to sniff, there was a bowl with water left out for the dogs, and there was a trash can for poop disposal. We will definitely be backClare C.

55The backyard had plenty of space to run around! The fence was completely secure and the height made the yard private from all neighbors. There was some dead space under the deck that my pup explored, but everything was dog friendly and a person could also walk under to supervise if desired. My only recommendation is to be sure you bring bug spray based on the weather - we went on a hot summer evening and didn't bring any (our mistake!) and suffered a handful of bites.Leah H.

FAQ about our Owings Mills 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.
