55We had a great time, as usual with this Sniffspot. There was more animal activity this morning than in the past, probably due to the warmer weather. We saw two foxes, geese, and a hawk in the field behind the fence for this spot. My pup loved the new variety of smells. Channing S.

55This spot is soooo clean and well maintained. We never have to worry about our dogs eating random things off the ground. This Sniffspot far surpasses any other in the area. The fencing is secure for tiny dogs. The area is quiet and the host is amazing. The host is so respectful and considerate. It’s a great space to train too because there are many things to do and hide behind. We play hide and seek with our dogs and practice tricks on the logs. There are toys too. Absolutely love this spot!!!Jennifer L.

55This was our first time at a Sniffspot and we had a wonderful playtime here. This is a beautiful fenced yard - a dog's dream with lots of different areas to sniff and run in. My dog was exhausted before the hour was up. Will be back!Karen B.

55Great place! There were two chairs on the patio and a water bowl for the dog. Fence all around property so my tiny dog couldn't escape. Lots of shade and places to sniff. Rose Q.

55Great yard! Very clean and well maintained, fenced securely for small dogs. The fence is a bit low in the bottom left corner but I felt confident my dogs couldn’t escape. The neighborhood is very quiet and when we went (8:30-9am) we saw and heard no people, cars, or dogs. The host very kindly left some clean water and a chair for us. Would definitely visit again!Zo F.

55The owner of this home was so friendly, responsive, and hospitable! The location itself was very securely fenced and full of fun sights as it backs up to a beautiful wooded area! This was my dogs first time getting to run around off leash in over a year due to no longer enjoying dog parks and having no yard of our own. I was even allowed to bring my trainer, who was also very impressed! I hope to return to this not so little oasis very soon.Megan B.

55My girl loved it! Very quiet and peaceful. The yard is very sloped with some woody areas in the back. Though there are quite a few bugs so definitely bring a good bug spray (host is very good about telling you this as well). Joddie Z.

55We were happy to return to this extra large fantastic fully-fenced backyard. I loved seeing my large athletic dog happily run full speed around the yard! Plenty of shade and sun. Fresh water & chairs provided. Excellent communication with Mili - she is a super-host!Jane A.

55I’ve gone here for awhile, always in love with this place! So big for small and big dogs! Very private, parking is never a hassle. They provide a bowl of water and cover it so now bugs fly in it and it’s fresh. I appreciate the trees as it was sunny today but we didn’t even touch the sun because the trees gave us so much shade! My dog gives this place a 20/10 perfect for reactive dogs my dog is and the dog that did come was too and they were stress free the entire time! Maryana P.

55This was our first Sniffspot outing but it won't be our last. The yard was well fenced and had lot of shade (ideal for an afternoon in summer). There were many areas for our dog to smell and explore. The hosts provided fresh cold water for our dog. We almost had to carry him out of there at the end of the visit - he was exhausted and resting comfortably on the cool floor of the covered porch. We'll be back! Christina D.

FAQ about our Gaithersburg fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. 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. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.
How can I find fully fenced dog parks in Gaithersburg?

How do I know if a fully fenced dog park works for my dog?
Many people looking for fully fenced parks have dogs that are not good with voice control. Start by applying basic filters, such as fences height and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. You can see attributes of fences such as height, gaps and fencing type to find the perfect fenced-in space for dogs. You can filter by size to make sure you have plenty of space, or a smaller space if you prefer a neighborhood park. You can browse on a map by park location to find one in your city or near your city. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off-leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible near the space. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to check features you want for your activity, such as fresh water, trail features such as soft trails or walking trails, or even water fountains. If you prefer wood chips, many of our parks have wood chips or indoor space if you prefer a beautiful park building.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot fully fenced dog park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit use by pregnant dogs and we do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules, such as staying within the designated off-leash areas. Each park location also has their own set of rules that guests need to follow, such as limiting excessive barking.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot fully fenced dog 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.
