55Carolyn is very welcoming! My dogs had a wonderful time exploring the Garden Hill - they got tired very quickly after running around but they had so much fun. It's a very quiet and peaceful place if you enjoy nature. I would definitely come again soon!Eve C.

55Carolyn's place was perfect for my dog. A completely fenced in area, with many areas to sniff or dig. He ran all over the hill, promptly taking a nap when we got back home. Highly recommend for a spot that engages your dog to explore. Katherine N.

55First visit to this Sniffspot and we loved it! Host is absolutely wonderful and very responsive. There were toys out, fresh water and plenty of space to run around. The yard is on a hill and my pups went right up to run and sniff around. There is also space for fetch in the driveway, which running up and down the hill was great exercise. We’ll definitely book again as we have more yard to explore. I recommend wearing some sort of hiking shoe for grip up the hill. Thank you for hosting, Carolyn! Aveleigh O.

55Oh, how we love this spot!! The yard is up the hill & there is plenty of room & natural shade. So much to explore & there is a wooden bench for us doggy parents to sit & relax. If you’d like to walk further up the hill, it is recommended that you have proper shoes on. My pup Tofu was having a blast going all around the yard, running up & down the stairs & playing fetch with his ball on the driveway. Last but not least, Carolyn is the sweetest & most hospitable host. She was so patient & kind to Tofu who happens to be very shy around new people, but he totally warmed up to her! We will definitely be coming back here over & over again. Thank you, Carolyn!Calee C.

55Carolyn and her property are Heaven sent! My dog Winnie doesn’t have a lot of opportunity to do off leash adventures (she’s dog reactive), so I’m always looking for opportunities for good Sniffspots and other adventure opportunities. Carolyn’s property is a dream come true for my Winnie, with the diverse landscape, sounds, and smells. She ran around endlessly and wore herself out, only to then luxuriate in the cold dirt pathways under the shade of the trees. She has not been so happily exhausted in a long time. Made me tear up a bit on the ride home knowing we had this chance and that I could help give my dog a fun time. And Carolyn made that possible. I adored meeting Carolyn and chatting with her. Such a gem she is! I hope we can come back very soon. The BEST person and place ever. ❤️Alexandra W.

55Carolyn’s property was perfect for my active dog to run up and down the hill. We were able to practice calling his name to find us and he got to play with some toys on the terrace. She was super welcoming and it was a perfect way to tire out our pup! We will be back :)Calee H.

55This was our second visit to Carolyn’s home and my dog Winnie was so excited upon arriving that she gave her trademark excited yelping barks as soon as we got there. This is an absolute great and unique place for your dog, especially if your dog loves nature and running. Because this is a more natural setting than a standard backyard, some very small dogs might not be well suited but if your dog, like mine, loves sniffing, exploring and checking out what’s rustling in the bushes, this is the perfect place. I wish I could upload all the video I have of my dog running around like a maniac! Carolyn is a perfect host and an absolute treasure to chat with! Can’t wait to come back! Alexandra W.

55Carolyn’s Dog Park is spectacular! Lots of room for dogs to run safely, plus water a places to sit in both sun and shade. Our dogs loved it. Even our Chihuahua, who is chronically grumpy, had the biggest smile on his face! And Carolyn is a lovely person. We will definitely be going back 💯Ann W.

55Me and Bixie had a lot of fun going up and down the hill, and later found ourselves relaxing at the terrace where there’s fresh water for Bixie. The greenery and the views are marvelous. Carolyn is a gracious host and welcomed us with hospitality. I’m very appreciative for having this space in Sniffspot, would definitely come again!Nikki C.

55Best Place for Active dogs!
Our three large dogs loved the hill.
They ran up and down. Chased each other all over till they tired.
We made the drive up from OC and was totally worth it. We couldn’t find anyone that offers a property like Carolyn’s locally.
Carolyn is a lovely and kind host.
Very welcoming. My young dogs (all three between 11-16 months) did well around her for still been in training.
Scooby, my reactive dog did ok as well. Carolyn’s presence did not trigger his reactive state, as it has around other people.
Definitely saving Carolyn’s place for a return trip! Jaime C.

55This is the most magical place. ✨ Carolyn is so kind and thoughtful—she really has thought of everything. Toys, water, cots, even a wading pool! Our pups had the BEST time (and we had a wonderful time, too)!! It’s so rare for our dogs to be able to just let loose and not have to behave all the time. What an absolute gem. We can’t wait to go back!Carrie W.

55Carolyn’s yard is an outdoorsy dogs dream. Plenty of space to roam and sniff in a tranquil woods like setting. My girls and I were also welcomed on the patio with lots of toys and a doggie pool filled with water for them to cool off in. I personally appreciated the seating with the incredible view overlooking the city. Carolyn is a kind and gracious host and I will definitely be returning. Ranell S.

FAQ about our La Crescenta-Montrose 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. 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in La Crescenta-Montrose?
There are 211 small dog parks in the La Crescenta-Montrose area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. 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.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
