55This spot is perfect for playing catch and frisbee, or bringing a few dogs to play with each other. Chris and Alan provided plenty of toys, towels, waste bags, shaded sitting area, fresh water for the dogs, in this beautiful garden area. My dog loved it! Moey N.

55Alan and Chris have thought of everything to make their Sniffspot welcoming and fun for both pups and humans. The location was easy to find with everything well-marked. Their space has lots of room for a good “chuck-it session” with our ball-obsessed pup and plenty of shade and areas to explore for our less active dog. The hour flew by! I look forward to enjoying the benches and scenery during our next visit. Thanks Alan & Chris!Meghan S.

55What a great place! Our two dogs loved exploring the large space, and playing with the toys. We loved walking the perimeter "trail" and throwing the chuck-it balls. Lots of shade, sweet seating - you could bring a picnic! We will definitely be back. Jonna H.

55Ok… this was our very FIRST SniffSpot experience, and it was 100% AMAZING!
What a fantastic experience we had… Alain’s communication was prompt & excellent. They were unable to meet us… however, the entire process was easy and so smooth. This property is perfectly marked with cute little signs where to park, where to enter. Gate code etc. I’m telling you… as our first experience… wow, some of this other places may have some big shoes to fill. Cover shaded seating area, dog toy box, water bowl, poop bags, hand sanitizer… perfectly safe and clean area for the dogs!
5+ STARS! We will absolutely be back and bring some friends! 🐶♥️🐶Jen B.

55Absolutely a fabulous place! My two Goldens had a fantastic time and it’s exactly what they needed to run and run. I’m home now with two very tired but happy pups. Chris and Alain are wonderful and gracious hosts. I’d give them 10 stars!Elise G.

55Chris and Alan were so welcoming and kind and you can tell that they really care about dogs and making this a great experience for dogs to run around and play as well as a great experience dog owners. We went here with a dog trainer (No Limits Service Dog and Obedience Training) and his dog in order to help socialize our rescue dog that we got less than two months ago. The area was large and allowed our dog plenty of space to run around and play. Our dog loved this place and we did as well! This sniffspot is fully fenced and secure and it provided poop bags and water for dogs. Our dog Roxy had a blast and we will definitely be back soon! Katrina X.

FAQ about our Philo 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. 99% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Philo 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 13 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 1 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.
