55Spectacular oasis with ample space to roam and run free. It's a little bit outside of the city, but well worth it. Definitely not your typical big backyard. Owner is also responsive with messages. There is plenty of clean water and bowls for the pups as well as bottled water for the humans. I'm so happy that my pup is happy getting to run and roam free, as it's rarely often for us to get the opportunity to do so living in the city. Definitely plan on coming back!

55Robynn responds immediately. Location is right off Roosevelt, easy to get to. Former BMX field is wonderful. My photos do not show just how high and steep some of the hills are - wonderful for dogs and humans! 2 ponds are nice and will be even nicer when the vegetation turns green. Yard is completely fenced even around the front of the house. Water, waste bags and trash all set up nice. Chairs on top of the hill overlook the block! Attention to every detail - gate latch works good. Neighbor dogs did run the privacy fence as did mine so I had to keep her on a leash but as soon as I pulled her away there was so much to explore she forgot about returning to the fence. Great track/field/yard for everyone.

55Great space for dogs to run out their energy. There are hills, a pond, and a really nice seating area for the humans, too, with amenities like water, sanitizer, a first aid kit, etc. There were two chairs on top of the highest hill, which was wonderful for watching the dogs explore. Robynn was great, really helpful, good communicator. We will be back.

55Such a great spot!! Robynn had thoughtfully left a jug of water, water bottles, bowls, toys, etc. My dog loved sniffing around the huge space, investigating frog sounds at the pond, and sniffing around the large trees. He was exhausted afterwards 😊 Will definitely visit again!

55Another GREAT visit!! Super clean (as always), lots of toys to play with (ropes and balls and squeaky toys) and a big 5 gallon jug of fresh water with a spigot for easy dispensing and several bowls. (bottles of water for the humans too!) Our dog had a BLAST in the pond today. It’s just a great space with lots of privacy and room to roam, sniff, spaz run, whatever their hearts desire! Also, great communication from the owner, she’s awesome! This is now our second visit with our two dogs and we will definitely be back!

FAQ About West Chicago 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. 8% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the West Chicago 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 517 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 763 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.
