55The hosts are great! They are very nice and accommodating. They have life jackets and all sorts of things if you are using the pool. There are no shallow steps into the pool though so the dog(s) have to be comfortable jumping off the ledge of the pool or using the available steps which are a little steep. Something to be aware of if you have little dogs or if they aren’t comfortable jumping a few feet to get into the waterMeg M.

55Loved it! Once I showed our pups how to use the steps they were “all in”. Our hosts were gracious and when we arrived poolside there was music playing, dog toys, and fresh water in the bowl. We are traveling in an RV with Portuguese Water Dogs and “Sniffspotting” from state to state. The yard was fenced and gave them lots of room to “zoom.” Jane B.

55We had a wonderful time here-
We took 4 dogs total for a weekend play date, we did not use the pool but that area was fenced off and looks perfect for dogs!
The rest of the yard was nice-
Lots of shade and places to explore and sniff.
We will be back!Lindsay C.

55Another great day at the pool! The pups had a ball swimming and running around together. As always, Kate went above and beyond supplying everything we needed even down to the music playing on the radio! 10/10 we will keep coming back!!Gracelyn R.

55This is a great spot! Spacious fenced in yard and pool area, not too far from the center of Charlotte. Lots of awesome extras like life vests, towels, toys, chairs, and more. Our dog wasn’t a huge fan of swimming but she really enjoyed having zoomies across the yard and exploring a new place, and it was very comfy for my fiancé and I to hang out nearby in the pool chairs.

55My Golden-doodle, Moose, came here when he was a puppy to get him acclimated to water . 1.5 years later I brought his new baby brother, a phantom golden-doodle named Lincoln, to do the same. Moose immediately knew where he was and got excited! Needless to say big brother taught baby brother and they had a fun filled day! Thanks for allowing the dogs to play here! We appreciate you!

55This was very easy for my first SniffSpot. I appreciate the hosts thoughtfulness with everything and it was a nice afternoon. My dog doesn’t love other dogs and hasn’t had much time to play in a fenced in area off leash so this was fun for him and for me. Thanks! Kimberley S.

55We had a blast at this SniffSpot! Oscar loves water, but he'd never been in an actual pool before. It was a little sus for him. I appreciate that we're allowed to play with and help our pups in the pool - I was able to support Oscar as he doggy paddled a few times. It was his first "swim lesson" in an actual pool :) I think he was overwhelmed by all the fun new smells, too - I'll have to stay longer next time and maybe get a treat scatter for him so he can have the best of both worlds! We only stayed for an hour this time, but we built up his pool confidence quite a bit, so it'll be fun to watch that grow on subsequent visits.
The spot was easy to find, with clear signage posted by the driveway and great instructions. I appreciated that towels, dog life jackets, lotion, etc. were provided at the pool house. There's even a mini fridge with some drinks, which I also used to chill Oscar's water. Tips are optional, but I sent the owner (Kate) something because I genuinely appreciated the hospitality. We felt very welcome and comfortable, and I appreciate the time that Kate took to answer my questions before I booked our time. We'll definitely return to this beautiful spot! Thanks so much for having us!Jorden R.

55Our dogs had a blast. Large secure yard with plenty to smell. Our two large dogs had plenty of room to run and play while our senior girl enjoyed wandering around soaking in all the smells. Big dogs had a blast in the pool once they worked up the courage to jump on in. Could hardly keep one of them out of it after. Will definitely go again.Evan D.

55We had a blast at dog paradise! This was my first Sniffspot booking but instructions/directions to amenities were very clear and self explanatory. The property is beautiful with large trees and lots of space to run. I have never been to this portion of Charlotte and it feels like such an escape! We are used to apartment living so it was so nice for my pup to get some energy out. There were plenty of toys too! I brought some of ours just in case but he loved the pig :) Just being able to roam and smell all the smells was top notch entertainment for him.
I added on the pool option to introduce him to the water and towels, lotions/bug spray were a thoughtful extra. The doggy lifejackets were easy to find and adorable. Definitely recommend using if it’s your pups first experience with water, I could tell he was more confident with it on. I like how the pool area was separately fenced from the green space too.
Thank you so much for sharing your space with us today! Very grateful a platform like this exists and I’d recommend anyone with a new shelter pup or reactive pup to come and enjoy this beautiful space without the normal fears that come with using a public dog park. Amy B.

55This was our first Sniffspot rental and I am so pleased! My dog had a great time in their pool! We didn’t check out much else beyond the pool because Millie is obsessed with swimming and fetching tennis balls in the pool. Everything was exactly as it was presented and we will be back. I appreciate the pool related supplies they had out including a towel, radio, sunscreen, bug spray, and poop bags. I felt very welcome! Tara W.

55Love this space!! My coonhound had plenty to sniff and was exhausted afterward. This sniffspot is in an apartment complex and I visited on a Tuesday afternoon - it was very quiet and we saw no other dogs. The fence is very tall and secure (the height of a standard tennis court fence.) Angie is super sweet and she is a part of the HOA of the complex - she answered all of my questions promptly! We will definitely be back!

FAQ about our Charlotte dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
How can I find dog fields in Charlotte?
There are 46 dog fields in the Charlotte area. The most popular dog field is Dog Paradise in Northwest Charlotte. You can browse all of our dog fields here.
How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Charlotte area range from $10.0 and $10.0. The least expensive dog field is Dog Paradise in Northwest Charlotte. The most expensive dog field is Dog Paradise in Northwest Charlotte. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
