55Cute little area. Perfect for our 3 pitbulls. We can't take them to dog parks because people get scared of their breed or other dogs want to fight. They do not put up with an outside dog messing with a family member so it gets ugly. My crew had a great time and are all worn out. Thanks 😊 Gil C.

55My pittie had such a good time here! It was secure with very few other dogs in neighboring yards to distract my dog. We will definitely be coming back!Ashley M.

55When I visited Gus' Garden Sophia was outside and was very welcoming. My current foster dog really needed a place to run and play off leash without any other dogs around. Gus' Garden was perfect! I checked all the fencing and it was secure all the way around the yard to the ground. There was no way even my small dog could escape - though she looked carefully, too. Thanks, Sophia!!!Veronica S.

55Very nice secluded spot. Nothing there to trigger dog angst. The toys, hammock and swing were appreciated. Hose bib is outside the fenced in area. My dogs were worried enough to oversee my out of yard venture. If you have a heavy chewing dog, avoid the lily-of-the-valley. Loved this place, will use again. Shady and comfortable for the doggies. The stupidest crap triggers them but nothing here bothered them. It was very nice.April and Dan P.

55This was a great, secure area to let my dogs roam and play off leash! They were too interested in sniffing the yard and chomping the grass to play fetch or anything, and they had a great time!Ashley H.

55Howie and Henry had SO much fun on their play date at Gus’ Garden! The area was clean, safe, and secure. It also provided lots of running space & (Howie’s favorite) a kiddie pool! There was also shade & several places for us to sit. We will definitely be back!Megan M.

55This spot is definitely a redo! Lots of space for my pup to just run and enjoy himself. He’s never seen a kiddy pool so it was fun to see him explore that and there were lots of fun toys he enjoyed throwing around. We will definitely be back! Tori S.

55What an awesome place! I took my foster there so he could have some room to run around and he LOVED IT. The space is completely fenced in and secure. There’s plenty of space for your pup(s) to explore and toys to play with! My dog liked seeing the dogs a few doors down. I’ll definitely be booking again.Rachel J.

FAQ about our Cheviot 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Cheviot 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 231 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 12 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.
