55Our pup Maxine had such a good time in the pool and in the backyard. Leslie had everything that you could want, from water bowls, toys, doggie life vests and treats. I recommend her spot for anyone that wants to see their pup have a great time! Here is a picture of her after the pool and cooling off in the Yiki Bar!!Nancy M.

55Leslie’s yard was beyond our expectations. Our 3 dogs had an absolute blast running around the yard. The pool was a great addition and very much enjoyed on this hot day. Leslie had water and dog bowls and treats with a personalized message waiting for us. We definitely will be back. One thing for future first time visitors. There is a dog in the neighboring yard. There is a very tall privacy fence so you they cant see each other but if your dog is reactive to other barks maybe daytime working hours are good options that the dog maybe inside.
We had a blast thanks Leslie! Nina N.

55There's a huge space for dogs to run and have fun! There's not only a doggie hydration station but also a whole crate of toys, which our pups enjoyed tremendously. We also opted for a pool pass, and we're so glad we did! The water is clean, just the right temperature, and so enjoyable on a hot summer day. We appreciated the doggie swim vests available for use. All in all, it was a magnificent experience, which we will repeat over and over this summer! A fabulous host!ivana s.

55Penny and I had an amazing time here! We got a little welcome treat, ran around in the yard, played with some toys, and had a blast swimming in the gorgeous pool! Everything was clearly marked and directions were easy to follow. The life jackets for pups of all sizes were so cute and my girl loved being able to use one. Leslie was so wonderful with communication as well. We will definitely be coming back! Thank you! Leigh Ann F.

FAQ about our Hawthorne 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.
