55Pups had a great time. Very clean and well-kept space for them to run around in. Everything was labeled (like the bucket for pet waste) and easy to find. We’ll be back! Jessica D.

55Very nice comfortable yard. Everything was marked and she even allows her guests to use wifi while the pets roam. There is a neighbor dog who shares the fence. The dog is very calm though. We will definitely be taking advantage of this service again Amy G.

55This was a well kept beautiful area. I loved that my reactive dog couldn’t see through the fencing. And he absolutely loved running around then cooling off in the kiddy pool or splash pad! Heather H.

55The yard was so nice and clean and was a great place for our dog Hershey to run around!! There was a sand box that she loved digging in and rolling around in and lots of water activity for her to cool down. I absolutely appreciated the provided treats not only for the dogs but for the humans too :) I would highly recommended this place! Brianna B.

55My dog had a great time! He played with toys, dug in the sand box, cooled off in the “doggie pool”, lounged in the shade and enjoyed a dog treat. The yard was perfect! Thank you Victoria. Christy F.

FAQ about our Hartford 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.
Are 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 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Hartford area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 151 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 11 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
