55Great backyard, nice sitting area with water for the doggie and trash can for waste. Chris is very attentive. For reactive dogs, there is a dog in the back-neighbors backyard, you can't see it due to a privacy fence but barks a lot, in case you worry about that.Andreina R.

55Nice large backyard, fully fenced and easy to get into. When we arrived there were several deer in the yard who jumped over the fence when they saw us. Pretty cool! It had rained heavily the day before so I had wondered if it would be muddy or lots of water. It wasn’t bad at all! My dog had a great time!Trish S.

55Truly the best sniffspot! The yard was easy to find, fully gated, more than plenty of space for 8 dogs to be running around and the host was very friendly. Would highly recommend and we’ll definitely be back again! alice k.

55My boy had a blast! There was water provided and it was a huge area to run in. One disclaimer is wait until it hasn’t rained a couple of days to go. My dog LOVED playing in the mud puddle and we had quite the time getting him home. Erica L.

55The perfect spot for a dog that loves to play fetch! The yard is HUGE, space is clean and fence is secure. My dog had a great time and curled up on the couch to nap as soon as we got home! Michelle M.

55The spot was super nice, very large. We’re in town for just a day on our way back home so this was a fantastic place to let our dogs really get some energy out. As stated in the description there is fresh water provided and seating up on the deck. One thing that was unexpected was a small puddle of water in the very back, which my dogs of course had to roll in and then promptly roll in dry dirt/rabbit poop so we had to give them baths afterwards. Not a big deal by any means, the dogs enjoyed themselves lol. Just a heads up for anyone who might be reading this!Megan V.

55Wonderfully large back yard for your big dog, or multiple dogs to play in. The fences are high, the yard is well kept, and there is plenty if shade for those hot days (and a mud puddle! Bring a towel or two lol!) There was a dog in another yard that barked quite a bit, but we couldn't see him due to the high privacy fence. I will definitely be back.Fred R.

55Very cute and spacious spot! When we arrived a whole family of deer was in the backyard! It was so cool to see, and of course fun for my dogs to attempt to chase. There are some gaps in the fence (where it connects to the house and the gates) that might not be suitable for dogs smaller than 10 pounds as a heads up. There are also neighboring dogs that barked and ran alongside the fence for a little while but eventually their owners took them inside. Therefore, if you have reactive dogs, I would be cautious of this. The yard was very clean and I appreciated the host keeping a small garbage can out for users to dispose of poop bags! Highly recommend. Cheyenne G.

55Beautiful backyard that’s very well maintained! Fence is in good condition and the water on the patio was a nice touch! Chris had great communication as well. Will definitely be coming back!
There is a neighbor on the back fence line with a dog who runs the fence and barks. Something to consider if your dog is reactive! The owner took the dog in after about 30 minutes of barking. Kacy M.

55Convenient location and quiet neighborhood. I've used this sniffspot a few times already. There is still quite some poop scattered. I finally got to see the owner's Great Dane through the back door and it's very quiet and well behaved.Haru J.

55Awesome spot . The shelter dog I brought enjoyed every minute . I will be back regularly so more dogs can enjoy . I would mention that there are dogs in the neighbors yard in the back that bark continuously but they have a tall wooden fence . If you have a reactive dog could be an issue. I was there on a sat from 1030 .great spot carolyn k.

FAQ about our Doraville 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.
