55This is a great Sniffspot. My dog loved it. The grass is astroturf. My dog has never experienced astroturf before. It confused her at first but she enjoyed it once she started running. Fence was very tall with no gaps. Space was very clean. The owner left water out for us. Heather W.

55First thing is the known about bungee cord. It's important to consider this until they fix it. The fence is otherwise secure and has a pleasant view. The grass is super green and the running space was adequate for my 6mo husky pup. Very neat and tidy property. Exactly what we needed and now I have a tired puppy for at least five minutes! Thank you for being a great first sniffspot for us. Griffin K.

55This was a fantastic spot! Clean with lots of shaded sitting options and space for my girl to get her energy out! I have a small dog and finding sniffspots with fences secure enough for her liquid body is a challenge, but this place was fantastic! I didn’t have to worry about her trying to escape while she explored!Katie M.

55I was just looking for a place nearby for my hyperactive dog to be able to run around for a bit. This place was perfect and very inexpensive. The neighborhood was quiet and the yard was clean and well kept. The host sent a helpful message before our visit. The only improvement I would recommend is making the front gate slightly more secure. I don't think my dog could have gotten out but a very determined dog might be able toHeather W.

55This was a great spot for my dog to roam around and get some off leash exercise in. The yard is a great size for a city home and was very clean. The back porch was an ideal spot to sit back and relax while having a great view of my dog at all times. Having a water bowl, poop bags and Wi-Fi available were great perks! Will definitely come back. Alex M.

FAQ About St. Louis 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. 15% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the St. Louis 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 223 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 373 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.
