55My dog has IBD (irritable bowel disease). Every so often he gets in a flare and he is basically miserable. It just so happened that Merlin ended up in a horrible flare right before I initially scheduled the sniffspot. I rescheduled for a week later and he is still no better (yes we went to vet, been dealing with this illness for years now) but I forgot to reschedule or cancel. I contacted Melissa and let her know we are not coming, and that i understood we won't get a refund. I was totally fine with it. Melissa was extremely kind and went out of her way to offer another time when Merlin feels better. She checked in on us as well. It is nice to have kind, thoughtful people in this world so thank you Melissa.Michelle R.

55It was the perfect size to run around and play but not so large that you would worry about your pup being somewhere they shouldn’t be. The hose was great and had an attachment that my pup loved to play in. Grass was overall well maintained and large hole free. The property was clean and in a quiet area. If your pup loves the pool then this is a 10/10 place to go.Anthony R.

55This yard is AWESOME! Kim is quick with responses to questions and our dogs had an absolutely blast swimming and running around. We are so thankful for an option like this. The yard is beautiful, well kept, and large. The pool was a great temp and our dog kept begging for more frisbee throws. The steps for the pool were easy for our dogs to find and they were large enough for both to be on comfortably. We will absolutely be back and absolutely would recommend Kim’s yard!Breanne C.

There was also plenty of grass for them to run around. It truly couldn’t have been a better experience. Thank you for sharing your beautiful backyard with us, Kim!Liz C.

FAQ about our Elk Grove 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.
