55Huge backyard, lots of toys, and water for my pup :)
She loved exploring and getting some energy out. It was great to park in the driveway as she is very reactive to other animals, so it was nice to get in and out quickly. Kate H.

55it was our first time using the app and Taylor was very open and communicative since the start! :) there’s water bowls and toys available on demand for the pups and alot of different smells and feels for them (water, artificial grass, dirt, etc). we also rented the hydro sprinkler to refresh them for a bit and it was all set up before we even got there although we booked 30 minutes before! great experience and sure my dogs would love to go back.Luna T.

55Nice clean spot with lots of room to run around! Though we didn't opt for any of the add-ons, they were really great options to have. Overall great location! Danie C.

55Beautiful place to let my little pup catch some sun and roam around leash-free! Plus plenty of shade as well so we could keep cool. Will be coming back in the future! :)Courtney S.

55We rented the top deck with the pool for an hour and it was amazing! Our dog loved swimming, and the host left toys and even had towels out for us. Will definitely be returning! Bethany M.

55This was our first time using SniffSpot and we will forsure be coming back. Very private, the only noises we heard were the neighbors roosters, which our pup enjoyed listening. Love this backyard, absolutely beautiful and perfect for our girl to get her zoomies out. She was tired within 20 minutes but we tried to stay the whole hour to soak it in. Thank you 🩷 we will be back. Aubrey G.

55Very peaceful clean open space! I was appreciative of the already fresh filled water bowl. There were no visible dogs which was important for my reactive pup. The yard was clean and well kept. The owner was a great communicator and kept me updated when the previous guest had stayed additional time and when they were leaving to ensure a safe visit for my dog. I will definitely rebook for the pool next time! Cassandra K.

55Matilda loved the enclosed playground! There were plenty of toys, a tunnel, access to water and safely fenced in. You can upgrade to use the pool which is a nice touch. Definitely recommend!
I will say, and this has nothing to do with this Sniffspot, there was a loose dog across the street with no owner in sight so we did quickly carry her into the secure backyard. Again, nothing to do with this Sniffspot just a precaution. Erica F.

FAQ about our La Mesa dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
