55Advertised as Dog Disneyland this new Sniffspot did not disappoint. Pearl and I had a great time visiting. There are a ton of things for dogs to do here. There's a nice open area for some fetch and plenty of shrubbery for dogs to explore. I lost track of Pearl for a brief moment a couple of times because there are so many trees and bushes for her to explore but was not worried at all since everything is fully fenced in. My only regret was booking 1 hour instead of 2 since we didn't have time to explore the goat pen. This is truly an amazing rural-like setting among very tall trees less than a mile up the hill from Highway 522. The host, Maria, was very kind in showing us around and making sure we had everything we needed, including fresh water. We will definitely be back!John F.

55Very nice yard. The yard itself is on a slope leading back to a wooded area at the back of the property. It gives the space a very peaceful feel. The grass is thick and nice. The yard has a house next to it where if the neighbors cane or went they would be right next to the spot but I didn’t see or hear another dog or person while I was there.David A.

55Nice little yard with lots of sniffs and places to explore. We were greeted by two kitties, but they went on. Kai only explored for about 20 minutes before he was ready to go, but nice spot! Jessica O.

55This place is super clean and ample sized! Sadly there is no shade so something to keep in mind but I'd defintely come back. My dogs loved running and chasing each other in circles around the firepit. Jon T.

55This is a beautiful home with a spacious yard along the Sammamish River Slough in Kenmore which is nice and close for us as we live in Bothell. The Host was very considerate about keeping her dog inside her house while we were outside as Mosley gets very anxious with other dogs around. We did not experience any neighbor dogs outside. The Host provided water, toys, and places to sit. Although, the only interest Mosley had was running & checking out the ducks while sitting on the dock on the slough. I highly recommend this Sniff Spot as the landscape is breath taking & the yard has a perfect amount of space for a 34 lb sized Labradoodle to run freely. I am not sure who enjoyed it more, Mosley or my 15 yr old daughter who loved laying on the grass and soaking up the sun. We were one big happy family! Thank You!!!Beth M.

55This is a great spot! Super private, safe, fun space. There are dog toys and plenty of space for pups to run! The fence doesn’t border any other yards/properties, so especially good for reactive pups. Thanks for welcoming us to your yard!Katie A.

55It was exactly what we were looking for. Our dog is very energetic and doesn't immediately get along with other dogs. So the private time for him to be able to run off-leash was great. Shondell R.

55Great place to get out the zoomies and great place to discover so many smells. The human appreciated the chair under cover and the thoughtful step-stool to be able reach the latch for the gate for this of us vertically challenged...very thoughtful. Also great to have a sniffspot sign in the street so you know what driveway to enter! Two thumbs-up.Shawna M.

55Scout had a great time sniffing, he typically doesn't do this as the other spaces we have been to are larger, hence more room for dogs to spread out, but this space is still big enough for fetch and try to catch the provided lure toy. We will be back!Kara W.

55We had an awesome time at Charles' yard. Zion loves to sniff all the plants and there is enough running space for her to get out of breath. We have been before and will be back. This particular time we had not planned in advance and Charles let us book his yard day-of which was much appreciated. Becca T.

55Thor had a great time running around and playing. It rained but he didn’t care. Gate has hard to unlock for me but I am pretty short. There is a stool present which helps but I still needed to get on tiptoes and needed an assist from my dog to push the gate open. But, I loved the practicing of teamwork. :)Jessica B.

55Our visit was bright and sunny and had a fun time running around playing fetch and sniffing all the things. There were a few chewed up bits of toy left out that I picked up after I saw my Lydia with one (she had a lot of fun playing keep away from me as I tried to get it from her, lol). For those with reactive dogs, there was some barking from what sounded like a smallish dog somewhere behind the yard (across the street you drive in on, so not sharing a fence).Haley R.

FAQ about our Kenmore 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Kenmore 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 282 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 55 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.
Sniffspot has 282 fully fenced dog parks in or near Kenmore. Browse all fully enclosed options.
