55Kevin’s spot and hospitality was so great! There was lots of room for Pepper to romp around. We appreciated the clean water bowl, toys, and plenty of sticks! It was easy to communicate with Kevin. Pepper also got to meet Kevin’s pups upon request, which was a nice treat. Pepper and I would return. Catherine V.

55Delightful spacious wooded lot! Pup enjoyed running around, sniffing everything, and playing with provided rope toys. Definitely somewhere they can get the zoomies out. Kevin was friendly and helpful, and left water and treats for the pups. Thank you! Louisa M.

55This is a lovely yard and a very accommodating host. We met to facilitate my foster puppy’s adoption and it was the perfect place. Clean yard, fresh water and lots of dog toys — I plan to bring my own dogs back for some play time very soon. Brenda G.

55This was an amazing visit! Our pup is a bit wild, loves to run and be a bit crazy and Kevin had the perfect space for it. His dogs are also so much fun, our pup was in heaven getting to run around with them. Will definitely be returning! Giselle B.

55Super big, clean and overall just a fun experience. The owner left water bottles, poop bags, a towel for the pups paws. He was so kind. I always appreciate the small gestures. I’ll be coming back my dogs had a lot of fun.Iris M.

55Our first sniff spot and we loved it! Kevin and his wife were very kind and laid back. We were traveling through Fredericksburg and left our house later than we thought but they had no problem with us showing up a little late and staying later so we still got an hour (luckily there wasn’t a booking right after us too). Plenty of dog toys, our dogs had fun playing with their pup Kizmit too! They left a dog towel out for us to use since it was somewhat muddy in their backyard from rain the night before. We will definitely be back!Samantha H.

FAQ about our Fredericksburg small dog parks
Are small 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 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Fredericksburg?
There are 149 small dog parks in the Fredericksburg area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot 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 small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties 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. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
