55We usually drive out of the city and take our pups to wooded spots but decided to switch things up. Glad we did! They had a blast. Two young adult pups and 1 old man :) enough cool stuff for all of them to enjoy. Vanessa C.

55This is definitely the best Sniffspot we have been to so far! Sooo many fun things for dogs to enjoy—I was pleasantly surprised that my dog went through the tunnels!! He may not have enjoyed the splash pad (he’s very dramatic about water lol) but I sure did🤣 Hopefully there is not a “no dogs on the furniture” rule because Alfie mostly just wanted to lounge on the chairs, lol. This was such a nice, quiet, and BIG yard! Thanks so much for having us!Khloe M.

55Can I just rave about this doggie heaven? A beautiful large yard filled with doggie toy adventures and water features. An outdoor sofa in the shade for Hoomans with free cool drinks. Totally fenced in with doggie bags and disposal. And a flexible, kind owner. Will def be coming back!!Ilana S.

55Cowboy had a blast, it was the perfect amount of space for him. We appreciated the splash pad, toys, and spots to sit! He’ll definitely be tired for the rest of the day and we’ll definitely be back.Erica A.

55I love this sniffspot so much! It’s so nice and well kept. Lots of places to sniff around at and there’s a self service bath station. I will say if you have an small escape artist or a small dog with no recall, there are spots to get out. So be cautious of the stairs by the back of the house because the railing has decent sized gaps and also the spaces between the iron fence posts. My 17 lb dog could get through, but I just call him away from there and he tires out before he gets too adventurous. That being said, it’s such a nice spot. We’ve been twice now and it’s my favorite in Pittsburgh.Chloe W.

55This was our first time visiting the Hummingbird House Doggie Park. It was very tidy and safe. I brought two dogs and there was more than plenty of room for them to run at full speed. Lots of balls and fun toys provided. The only thing I would be careful about is the sloped entrance, but the owner did offer me to go in the front house yard entrance which is more level and we will probably do that next time. Also, a very good value for the price. Overall an excellent experience for me and my dogs!!Gay K.

55The Hummingbird House doggy play park was fantastic. The yard was large and fully fenced to keep our pup safe. She loved having so much room to run free. We hope to return soon! Brittany B.

55We are so happy with our visit here! Our recent rescue is very unsocialized (and scared of everything) and our other dog is reactive to certain dogs, so it was recommended we take them to a sniff spot. This was perfect for our scared baby! It was a very quiet neighborhood and a beautiful yard. Plus the owner touched base with us afterwards which was so nice. We will definitely be back!Amber C.

55This place has gone through a major upgrade since I last visited!! Love the new placement of the lounging area! Millie got out all her energy within the first 15 minutes. Only thing I wish was that there were less cobwebs in the toy bins and little shelter. Will be back again :))Clare S.

FAQ about our Pittsburgh 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.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Pittsburgh area range from $7.0 and $7.0. The least expensive dog field is The Hummingbird Home Doggy Play Park. The most expensive dog field is The Hummingbird Home Doggy Play Park. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
