55This yard is awesome! It’s large, it’s open, and it’s flat. The owner is super responsive to messages and she had water waiting for us with some poop bags, toys, and a garbage can. I know sometimes pictures make yards look larger than they are, but in this case they might make it look a little smaller. I took a licorice with a 6’ man for scale :)
100% recommend and we’ll be back!Nicole P.

55Great fully fenced in yard. The owner was friendly and provided everything we needed, including lots of water, poop bags, wipes and a place for trash. Overall, this was a great spot with a beautiful yard. Fence was secure and the dogs had plenty of room to run around. Would definitely book again.Kyle A.

55The yard is very large and open with more room to run than my 35 pound golden doodle could use! There is also a super convenient high table to put things down out of the reach of most dogs! Derby loved chasing 2 of the toys provided even more than and was tired before the hour was up.Suzanne T.

FAQ about our Mahwah 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 Mahwah 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 655 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 95 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.
