55We had a great time! A whole lot of sniffing and swimming! We weren’t sure where to go to fill the water bowls. We will be back in a few weeks!Patty F.

55This sniffspot was great, all 3 of our dogs had a great time, and they’re all very different energies from one another. They each found something there that they loved! Spacious field, big pond, and shade were prominent features, with sitting areas. Water bowl, poop bags, towels, and toys were all provided! Secure fencing and everything felt clean and safe. Will definitely bring the doggos again when we’re in the area! Lucienne A.

55My dogs absolutely loved it! Even my oldest dog was having a great time. Lots of balls and frisbees to play with along with a huge water bowl.
They are all dog reactive to different degrees and the peace of mind was so great.
They are extremely mischievous and notorious fence jumpers/escapers, they did find one little spot that was meant to be covered that was open and got through but even when they got through the host was on top of it and led them back to the area. I still give it 5 stars and we will be coming back! Max C.

55This spot is ideal for dogs! High fenced in area! Even a couple spots where gates are and fence did not touch the ground has been blocked. Frisbees, balls, water and biscuits for dogs. Water for me. I highly recommend this spot to run your dog. Very large area for running, zoomies, playing fetch etc.Franchesca B.

55After a couple days of heavy rain, our dogs enjoyed getting out and running around this grassy area. Great, secure location, easy to find and access. We appreciated the host leaving dog balls, waters, treats etc. as an added bonus. Carol A.

55This was our first time using Sniffspot, and we are looking forward to using it more! This location has a very, very secure fence. Our boy tried hard to find openings! Lol. The location appears to be formerly used for horses. Host provides a bench with biscuits and water. There are Frisbee and tennis balls there, too. We plan to be back!Sheila X.

55Our 3 pitties had THE BEST time running, playing ball, catching frisbees, and “sniffing” at this amazing spot. Loved the clear instructions about how to park and access the space. I also had to message the owner and he was quick to respond, kind, and extremely helpful. We found our sniff spot! We will be back for sure! Thank you for sharing your space💗Summer G.

55A really super spot! It's a big open pasture, so the ground's a little uneven, the grass is wet, and there's critter poop here and there. In other words, doggie heaven. Wear sturdy shoes or boots. Fence was secure, no worries even for my 8 lb. pup. She loves to run in the grass and sniff, so she was just thrilled. I already booked our next two visits!Sohni Y.

55Great place to exercise dogs! My Doberman loved chasing her balls here, there was so much room. I wish they had a watering hose somewhere though. There was a giant water bowl there but you never now how often they’re actually maintained so I always bring my own. Julissa V.

55Everything my little dog could want! Large space to chase a ball and nice cool grass to roll around on! We did a 30 min reservation. There are balls and throwing toys to use but we used our own. I noticed bottle water and milk bones on the bench as well. There is a small trash can to use for picking up after your dog. There was a large full bucket of water for the dogs. Owner stopped my as we were leaving to check on our visit. We will be back! Mary C.

FAQ about our Pope Valley 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.
How can I find dog fields in Pope Valley?
There are 27 dog fields in the Pope Valley area. The most popular dog field is “Pep's Place”. You can browse all of our dog fields here.
How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?
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 Pope Valley area range from $25.0 and $25.0. The least expensive dog field is Pond and Field. The most expensive dog field is Pond and Field. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
