55Large, fully fenced yard. My girls (3 of them) had a blast! There is a place under the deck to sit in the shade and plenty of shady spots for the pups. My dogs checked all the edges and the only wiggle spot is right at the gate door where the foot path dips a little. None of my girls tried to squeeze out but a motivated small dog might be able to.

55A lovely sniff spot! Our two pups, husky mixes, had a great time exploring the large yard. There was plenty of room for the pups to really open up. There was great shade. The fence is sturdy and blocks the view of the outside, which allows our selective pups to relax and not worry about what is going on outside of the yard. The neighborhood was quiet during our visit. There was ample parking nearby. The host was pleasant and responsive to our correspondence. We look forward to returning for another play day!Jillian G.

55Great spot! Since my reactive dog couldn’t see any other dogs with the really tall fence, it was great. Nice to be able to take her off leash. Michelle R.

55The owner was responsive and super cool! It's super spacious, and the fence is high, which I can really appreciate. It was easy to get to, and there was plenty of street parking. Jesseca G.

55Peaceful large yard. Our pup loved running around with more space than he knew what to do with! Can hear other dogs and people in the distance at times but no visibility of them due to the solid fence. Our dog was not reactive to the sounds at all. Brian N.

55A beautiful backyard, clean and calm! If your dog is reactive to city sounds it’s the perfect place to bring them to decompress and get some outside time without the stress. Cardi loved it!! Ivanna D.

FAQ about our Parkville 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.
