55A sweet backyard with plenty of room to throw the ball with my pup. A row of gorgeous fir trees lined the back of the property and provided nice shade. Didn’t hear/see other dogs in the surrounding neighbors’ yards. There is a solid privacy fence around the property, which blocks any views of people/dogs etc. walking past on the sidewalk along California Ave. Perfect for those of us with reactive pups!Sarah Beth W.

Alex's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Seattle | Sniffspot
55We thought we’d swing by for a quick play session after work, and we had a blast! Perfect amount of space to let the pups run around, water and bowls provided, frisbees and balls for playing and places to sit for the humans. A nice and well maintained property with easy access. You can hear dogs walking on the street but have privacy from seeing them. The neighbors can see in on the backyard from their patio, but they are very nice!Elyzabeth B.

55Great spot for our dogs to play! They enjoyed being able to run around freely without the stress of other dogs, like a dog park. We are super close to this spot and plan on making it a weekly play spot for our dogs!Cierra C.

55Easy to locate, and had great amenities like a bowl of water, clean towels, toys, and a can for poop bags. The neighborhood is really quiet, so after some running around, we enjoyed just sitting outside with our doggo. Lovely and convenient spot, and a nice way to start the morning! Danielle G.

55Always a good time for our pups at Charming AF. The fencing is tall and secure, and there is enough space for playing frisbee and training practice. Katie L.

55This is a wonderful spot! It’s a nice place to just hang out in as a human as well.
My dog enjoyed sniffing the various things, and doing our normal fetch.
There was a very nice, large water bowl.
Great directions and photos on the app of where to park, so when I got there, I knew just what to do. Clear, whimsical signage.
Everything was clean and tidy. Also it’s so nice to have a bathroom for humans available. Miriam B.

55This spot is amazing (I almost want to keep it a hidden gem). We went there today and it was so quiet and peaceful. The grass and yard are well attended to, and the chairs were comfy to sit in. We will be back! There are people that walk by on the street, but I am using that in training my dog not to bark. She did really well after a couple of times.Kristi J.

FAQ About Seattle 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. 0% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Seattle 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 407 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 578 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.
