55I accidentally left a one star review when this place deserves more, so I thought I’d give more context by writing out a review. This snif spot has saved my dog and I while I had to recover from an ankle injury. It’s fully fenced, has a ton of dog toys that my dog loves and lots of space to run. My husband and I are regulars. The host is also very nice and has fixed any concerns I’ve had quickly. I had concerns about the foxtails growing and he had the lawn mowed the same day. He’s very responsive and kind, i really appreciate it! Laura S.

I booked a last-minute reservation tonight for my reactive dog and it was fantastic! The booking process was incredibly easy, and I loved that there were absolutely no other dogs around, which made it a stress-free experience for both me and my pup. The space was big and had plenty of toys for my dog to play with and run around. Highly recommend!Mariana M.

55Leigh keeps the field in great shape! It’s mowed frequently, which I believe can help keep the tick and foxtail population under control. Perfect spot for our girl!Carolyn H.

55It was a big plot! The space was very well maintained, grass was cut and it was very safe for the dog. I really appreciated the fun toys that were there as well. We would absolutely come back here, our dog had a great time. Willow G.

55We've been coming here for years now. Always a lovely time. I am glad things have dried up and I don't need to wear my bog boots and wash the dog off afterwards, but I don't think my dog shares my opinion - the mud puddles were a bonus feature for him. Heather W.

55Nice & clean area, freshly mowed. The toys & first aid kit are a nice touch to an already amazing spot for the dogs to let loose! Fully fenced for peace of mind. Already thinking of the next time we swing by!Pablo L.

55i really loved this space! it was beautiful and well kept! the front fence you first enter could be easily escaped if you have a small and motivated dog. easy enough to stay away from, but if you have an escape artist you might want to keep that in mind. Avery T.

55Spring is here and the mud puddles are gone. Our dogs miss them! But, the grasses are mowed and fun to run through and the tossed balls are easier to see. The birds are singing and the chickens are crowing. A wonderful place to spend an hour with our dogs!Shirley W.

55Great yard for fetch, some neighborhood dogs can sometimes be heard barking if that’s an issue for you (one next door briefly) but you can’t see any of them at allAleks F.

55Pep’s Place was clean with lots of sniffs. It was not nearly as hard to find as some claim and that’s coming from someone who always gets lost! It was mowed and was easy to walk and even had a ball launcher. It was quiet and the fence was fully secure. Bravo and I recommend Peps Place and will be back. Christina B.

FAQ About Santa Rosa 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. 1% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Santa Rosa 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 126 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 200 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.
