55Our dog loved this spot! There was so much to sniff and do. She especially enjoyed the basket of toys and the big water bowl. We also appreciated Rachel's quick and friendly communication. She confirmed our booking through messages, which reassured us before our visit.Grace N.

55Ace had a great time at this Sniffspot! Nice big grassy yard with lots of shade and plenty of good smells. He was excited for the toys available but even more excited for some tasty treats! He tired himself out in the first 15 minutes and took a nice rest under a tree. I love seeing him be able to run free when dog parks arenβt a safe option for us. Thanks for opening your yard to us!Kelly L.

FAQ about our Irvine 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.
