55We just got home from our first Sniffspot outing. It was at Dannie's dog Park in Roanoke Va. It was a nice yard with mowed grass. She had dog toys out for our 2 border collies to play with and a water dish. The fence is in good shape. My border collie girls are 2 years old and very unsocialized. They had such a fun time running and playing. This was their first time ever being off leash! Thank u Dannie.Sandra M.

55Craig and his spot was great! He was very welcoming and attentive! He left out water for both my dog and I and had bags and homemade dog treats. Ravin loved exploring and playing! She’s an escape artist, but his fence was secure enough for her. We will definitely be back!Katie M.

FAQ About Roanoke 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. 32% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Roanoke 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 70 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 183 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.
