55Jenny’s backyard is perfect. It is fully fenced and very secure. This was our first visit and first time ever using snifscape. Our two little dogs had a blast.
Jenny also provided fresh water and toys, which were a very welcome addition. We are very excited to return and looking forward to the summer months when the trees will offer shade to help keep the dogs (and people) cool!
I highly recommend this yard if you’re in the Kitchener, Waterloo or even Cambridge area! Tracy N.

55Thank you so much! So grateful to Jenny for use of her yard. And she leaves fresh water out too. I may frequent this spot! Close to home, and I booked sameday. Exactly what a dog needs in a yard.....space to play and run. Be aware there is a dog training facility behind Jenny's yard, so potential dog interactions. As shown in pictures, back fence is chainlink and about 4 feet high (I think). My dog could easily clear that to chase something. If you have a bolter, be prepared and keep your leash handy. Great space and my dog thanks you. Odette J.

55Gunna be a hot one today and this spot has lots of shade from mature trees. Plus hosts left out TWO bowls of water and checked if we needed more.
Lots of things to sniff but my dog just likes to play, and although we bring our own toys, hosts provide plenty.
Dog enjoyed himself and is now napping. Success!

55Another great visit. Very quiet for a Saturday. No other people or animals around today. Dog enjoyed himself. Did get quite a few mosquito bites. The hosts graciously put out spray, but I didn't use it, <sigh>.Odette J.

55Short notice visit. Always a pleasure to visit. The puppies had a good run. I chose this spot because the parking is so close to the gate and I’ve hurt my knee. I didn’t have to worry about walking too far before we played. Kristin Z.

55My dog isn't friendly, and Nathan was incredibly understanding and accommodating. The space isn't huge, but it was perfect for my dog to stretch his legs and there were lots of varied areas for him to sniff and play. The space is very well enclosed and safe. Thank you so much!Emmy N.

55This is the absolute most amazing dog yard. It is like dog heaven on earth. My pups had a BLAST. I will be back often and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a great private spot for their dogs to play. The owner is so kind…she left toys and water and a flirt pole and a BALL PIT (which we didn’t use this time because there was already so much excitement but definitely will next time). Thank you for letting us play in your yard!!! I am so grateful.Leanne R.

55What a great backyard spot for my dog to run around and burn off some energy!! Pugsley really enjoyed his time here, and I did too. The backyard was very well lit even in the evening, it was super clean and was a great size. We appreciated the toys and the parmour platform was fun for my puppy to build up confidence to go up! The host was very communicative by message and friendly. Thanks so much, I'm certain we'll be back!! 😊Anna Z.

FAQ about our Kitchener small dog parks
Are small 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 are much safer than public dog parks.

Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.

If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
