55Great first visit, Izzy was mostly interested in sniffing and checking out the yard, which was nicely mowed and cleaned, especially with the aftermath of Hurricane Ian. Had the Chance to talk with Teri and Rick as Izzy got tired and wanted to lay down in the shade, a successful outing with some off leash training time practicing recalls.Deb D.

55Madeline’s sniff spot is wonderful! Nice big fenced in yard to play in. She had a nice little set up waiting for us with chairs, water bottles for humans and a 2 litter size bottle in a bowl with ice for the dog. We enjoyed our time so much the only downside is its so hot outside when went we couldn’t stay the full hour but we will most definitely be back! Thank you Madeline!! Dani H.

55Spacious, clean, secure!
My boys had a great time running around. I got a peek at the pool and will definitely book that as an extra next time.
There were other dogs on the premises, but they were inside and quiet during our visit.
There’s a gate at the entrance. I was a few minutes early and was waiting, but they opened it for me. You just pull in and it closes behind you. Then you’re in and can let the dogs out once you’re parked.
Big benefit for people with multiple dogs!!!Michelle J.

55Great open area- my dog loved it after realizing she had the whole place to run!! We actually had to leave because she ran so much and wouldn’t drink any water- I was afraid she would have a heat stroke!!! Thanks for the visit😍Jamie G.

5510/10 exactly as described. We will definitely be making this a regular visit. VERY secure yard and lots of options for spaces to roam. Tons of shade and some chairs to sit. Our dogs used the pool and loved every minute of their visit. The host was very accommodating, they met us when we arrived and gave a little tour before leaving us to enjoy the beautifully maintained property. Emily S.

55This SniffSpot was nothing short of AMAZING! My pups had a blast walking the property and exploring all the smells. Plenty of room for my runner to chase her ball. The yard was very well kept. Extremely spacious and secure. Jeff & co. were so kind and welcoming! They even had disc golf set up for the humans. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be back during our time in Sarasota.Anthony and Megan A.

55Amazing! We used sniffspot for the first time and found Jeff’s Private Dog park. We have two 1 year old Jack Russells who are learning to swim and in training. What an amazing spot. The pool is screened in with a side yard fenced in and a sitting area and bathroom. There is another very big area for hot dogs to run that is fenced. Very clean area and the pool is great. Jeff was very welcoming and showed us the area. Best part is it is private which we loved for our boys. Also very reasonable! Highly recommend this amazing sniffspot! We will definitely be returning. Thank you Jeff. Rebecca K.

55Ilona set out all of the pool/sunny day necessities and yummy snacks for the pups! She gave clear instructions on how to enter the backyard. This was my girls first pool experience and it was exactly what we needed! We had a blast splashing around and it wore the girls out, thank you for offering your home!Sydney B.

55I’d like to think my pup loves his day-to-day life, but this was just a next level of happiness it made my heart melt to see. Ilona was quick to respond and made for a great, spontaneous visit to this lovely spot! There were plenty of spots to sit / stand that I could see the whole area and feel comfortable with my pup running around, plus lots of spots for him to run in and out of the patio area for unlimited exploring.

55We had such a lovely time at Ilona's dog park. She bent over backwards to make sure we had everything we needed. She had water for the dogs and us and treats for the dogs. There were towels and toys. It is an older property, but the water in the pool was clean and the fencing was intact and kept our dogs safe. Our pups had a great time. The only drawback for us was the distance from our home. We are about 40 minutes away, but for those who are local it is nice access to a pool for your pups.Cindy B.

55Our pups had a great time! The host was very accomodating but gave us complete privacy. Bathroom was available if needed. My dogs had plenty of room to prance and sniff around. My pittie had a blast in the pool , and the host was so understanding when she popped a pool floatie. There was water and treats for the pups and even some drinks for the humans. Such a great time! Thankyou for making our pups night- they are tired happy girls :)Lana Z.

55The spot was everything we hoped! Great atmosphere. The host has a lot of amazing plants. Very nice orchids and more!
Our poodle loves to do what he was bred to do. Water retrieving! This spot was a big hit for him! We got to play in the water together the whole time! He would barely leave the pool to explore the back but there is a nice little run area behind the pool cage if your dog isn’t as enthusiastic about the water! Ilona is a great host and will do her best to provide anything you need for your visit. Dog water etc. Really appreciate the hose in entry/exit area to rinse off gear, pooch and yourself. We will definitely be back again for more fun!
I’m glad he has a water jacket because he has the drive to swim endlessly! Billie W.

FAQ about our North Port 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the North Port 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 100 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 14 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.
