55Wonderful outdoor space with lots of sniff room. The yard is uneven, but we didn't have problems negotiating the levels. The dogs loved having a personal sniffari, and lounging in the shade. We will return!Brooke B.

55Nina’s yard was great! I was a bit confused by the access instructions: it says the gate is “easy to open” which apparently means it’s locked and you have to reach over to unlock it. Other than that small point of confusion, it was lovely Nora M.

55Rocky had an amazing time and was totally exhausted afterwards. Beautiful space. Tons to explore. I wondered a little bit if a very tall and athletic dog could jump the lower fence but we did not have any issues. Will be back! Leigh A.

55Great environment for our first Sniffspot! Lots of room to explore, different levels to check out, and awesome views for the humans, too. Water spigots available and receptacle for waste bags was convenient, as was seating. Julie M.

55Wonderful backyard space! Lots of space for my new rescue to sniff around and just explore. I’m working on getting her used to new places, sights and sounds and she was sooooo relaxed in the yard. It was a wonderful place to have her relax. Lots of toys around, water spigots and chairs for me to sit too. Will definitely be back! Nina has created such a safe space for dogs 💜Javi G.

FAQ About San Francisco 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.
