55Melissa is an awesome host and her place is a gem! Our pups had fun running around and swimming in the pond. Theyโre young pups so learning to stay within bounds is challenging. Overall it was still a great place to hang out on a hot summer day. Joyce N.

55What an amazing place! Lots of great places to sniff, run around and play! One of our dogs is reactive and this was such a great place for her to explore, run, and work on recall (we kept her on a long lead since the property is not fully enclosed, but that didn't slow her down and we had a good time). We heard some dogs barking off in the distance for a brief minute, otherwise it was private and quiet. Even had some red-winged blackbirds hanging out in the trees around the pond singing. Highly recommended - easy to find, clean, lots of shade, and overall just a really cool Sniffspot.Jaime R.

55Our dog had the best time here! The spot was easy to access, and Melissa had chairs with an umbrella at the waterโs edge to keep the humans cool, water and towels available for the dogs, and lots of open space for chasing balls and running. Iโm sure my dog would love to be a repeat customer! Bre K.

55My pooches had a fantastic time. The setting with the pond ant its surrounding vegetation, the spacious areas, and the various paths make for a natural and beautiful setting. Besides their swimming/fetching in the pond, the large spacious grassy areas for them to run and fetch was perfect for my dogs to cut loose, get their exercise, and just be dogs. There was plenty of sniffing, too, which is one of their specialties. They loved retrieving their ball and squeaky toy in the pond so much that when I was ready to leave, I walked back to the car and looked back and there they were, still standing near the pond as if to say, do we have to leave. I will definitely return with my two Golden Retrievers; it was well worth the 42 mile drive.Tondria G.

55This was our second time visiting this lovely spot. Itโs so nice to get out of the city and play with my dog in the peace and quiet of the country. Thereโs plenty of room for a game of fetch, with breaks for my dog to cool off in the pond. The many trees provide plenty of shade, too. Weโre low maintenance and havenโt used the paddleboats, but thatโs a really nice amenity for those interested.Sue W.

FAQ about our Elk Grove dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Elk Grove?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs 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. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
