55Great spot, very clean and lots of room for your pup to get their zoomies out
55My pups had a great time here! Large space, well maintained, and I really appreciated the shady spots for humans to sit and the complimentary bug spray! There was also a big box of sanitized toys for visiting pups, and water. There are a couple of small areas along the feont and back of the fence where people may be glimpsed/heard walking by, so if your dog is very reactive, take that into account :) We enjoyed our time here in the space!
55beautiful space
55This was our first time using Sniff Spot and Tiva's was a great first experience. The directions were easy to follow. The space provided a lot of room and entertainment for our doggies to play and run around. I would highly recommend this place as you don't find many spots like this in the city.
55Perfect Sniffspot in the city! Very calm and safe space for dogs to play and relax. We will definitely be back.
55Great convenient space!
55As usual my dogs love and enjoy going here. They have such a great time playing with each other.
55This sniffspot is AMAZING! Not only was it a great space for my dogs to exercise and explore, but it was relaxing for me too! There are multiple places to sit, in the sun or shade. It has everything your dog needs for a good time. I loved having the platform dog bed to practice training with my dogs. Very beautiful yard with lots of room and very well kept. The yard is private and there's a visual barrier to discourage my nosy girls from getting distracted by things on the street. We will definitely be coming back!
55This was my first time taking my dogs to a sniffspot and picked the perfect spot. They loved it and enjoyed playing + running around with each other. I will for sure be coming back with my dogs. The space is pretty big and has everything you need for your dog/s to have a great time.
55Such a great spot! Super well-maintained and secure - the perfect spot for off-leash fun. Sara has thought of everything, from water to a wide array of toys - even bug spray! We will definitely be back :)

Description

We LOVE sharing our space with multiple dogs from the community however, it is hard on the grass. For this reason, we have limited our evening and weekend availability to Members Only to decrease the wear and tear on the yard. With the fluctuation in weather please be aware: If outdoor parks are wet and muddy ~ areas of our yard will be also. We cannot control the effects of rain. Please always use the provided carabiner to lock the gate as pictured after you and your dog(s) enter. We have installed multiple methods of LIGHTING for evening reservations. Easy instructions for use will be sent when you make the reservation. We do have a SHADE/RAIN SHELTER! :) WATER: We provide fresh water every 24hrs located in watering cans on the bench. PARKING: One FREE private parking space located at the entrance from the alley at the back of the lot. Since some guests were having a tough time with the parking space, so we did WIDEN the entrance. We park 2 Honda CRV's back there daily without issue. Fully fenced 6 foot secure and private green space. Large open lot with seating and plenty of room to play fetch or just relax off leash. Easy street parking, no permit required. Any Extras will be located in the storage bin on the east wall of the lot. We have evening hours 6:30p to 9:30p for Members Only, 7 days per week.

We are dog lovers that have an extra soft spot for dogs that might not be comfortable around other dogs enough to share off leash space so are happy to share our space with others. :) I volunteer at a local animal shelter and some of my biggest loves there have been dogs that prefer humans over other dogs. I am always extra grateful to the people who adopt our less dog social dogs, so I'm hoping Tiva's yard can help those families have a little extra fun. <3

Notice: We are closing the spot on May 23rd for maintenance. Sorry for the inconvenience. Grass and rain: Please keep in mind that during moderate to heavy rains the area without mulch can get muddy. Beginning May of 2024, we will post pictures daily to our Instagram account showing the condition of the spot. As you can imagine, due to the wear and tear the spot gets, it’s difficult to keep the grass alive. However, we do our best to reseed during the spring. BarkPark sits right across the street from The Salvation Army Freedom Center. This spot is fully fenced (chain link and wood) with the side facing the sidewalk being 5ft and the rest of the fence being 6ft. There is a dual-gate entrance to the spot for a safe entry and exit. Street parking is available. There is plenty of seating at this spot with shade throughout the day. There's a rain barrel filled with water for dogs to hydrate and cool down. We have water bowls available. GIANT sandbox that's great for digging and playing; no digging elsewhere please. On hot days, we do our best to keep the sand wet. Trash can onsite. We have poop bags available in two different areas for easy access. Half of this spot is covered with grass and the other half with playground mulch. This spot is big enough to get a good fetch session in or to just let the zoomies out. We also recently added agility equipment. We hope you and your four-legged friend/s have an exceptional time during your visit and choose to come back. Lost toys and items: Due to the amount of visits we get we aren’t able to track which items belong to which guest. If you’ve lost a dog toy or other item, please reach out and we’ll do our best to retrieve it and hold it for you. If you don’t reach out, we’ll hold onto it for a week and then add it to the Lost and Found Toy Box. Water: The dog drinking water gets changed 1-2 times per week, depending on the temperature/usage. During the winter months we empty the water barrel. If your dog/s require water during the winter months, we ask that you please bring your own. Food: You’re welcomed to bring food but we ask that you please clean up as a courtesy to other guests. Future additions: We hope to add more amenities over time. Our plans are to add more sand to the sandbox in late April or early May of 2024. We’re also hoping to have on-site parking around mid summer of 2024. If you have any suggestions for amenities, we’d love to hear your feedback.
