55The space was perfect for my two, 9 wk old puppies to run around in… they haven’t been vaccinated fully as of yet so we needed the privacy and our needs were 100% met. Thank you! Jade K.

55Pictures do no justice! Plenty of grass! The fence is super tall and sturdy. Seating & tables available for the humans. Well kept/neat yard. Sunny and shady spots. I brought my own water, but there is a hose available for use! Easy access in/out. No major noises despite it being a sunny Saturday afternoon. My baby had a great time walking around and smelling everything. This was our first time using SniffSpot & we will definitely be back! Thank you so much 💖Calleigh V.

55Kelly’s yard is great for well-adjusted dogs, but it’s located on a fairly busy street about a block away from the downtown area, so it can be very loud with a lot of distractions at times and wasn’t particularly well suited for my reactive dog. If your dog doesn’t have issues with other people, dogs, noises, etc., however, it’s a great spot! The yard is fairly large, well kept, and fully fenced, and there were a few toys either left behind or stocked for use. I had a few questions before our visit and received very friendly and quick responses from Kelly. If my dog didn’t have reactivity/sensory issues we’d definitely be back! Leslie A.

55Bailee seemed to enjoy being able to walk without her lead… but very apprehensive of her surroundings because she was not familiar with the area . i think she would have maximized use of the yard if I had bought some of her favorite play things. Next time I am sure she will be more comfortable. LAUREN W.

55A lovely space in the heart of charming South Orange! The yard is well-maintained and secure, with ample space for running and playing. My dog loved sniffing around the rustic barn doors, too! Kelly is friendly and communicative. I was running a few minutes late and she was kind enough to offer us some extra time to visit. Great experience all around!Amber A.

55This space was great and safe for my dogs to play in! One note was the sticks all around the yard, which my dogs have an affinity for. There were a ton and they kept eating them but besides that this is a great spot!Angelica N.

55We had an absolute BLAST!!
I’m fostering a new dog with an abuse history so this was the perfect quiet place for him to decompress and have fun.
We booked for two hours but he was worn out in the first five mins!
It was so wonderful to see him so happy!!
Kelly’s place is clean, easy to find and a perfect doggy get away! We will be back! Pilar A.

55We will be back! Your yard is perfect. My boys are such good boys - but my Swifty Capone cannot take the overstimulation of public dog parks. He get nervous but your yard is perfect. They ran around, rolled around, found a toy, left the toy and even barked at whatever they heard. Really great. We will be back! Thank you again!Lauren H.

FAQ About South Orange 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.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 15% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the South Orange area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 797 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
