55We really enjoyed the peaceful one acres lawn in New port Richey. There was ample shade and plenty of room for my dog to run and catch the ball. We felt very welcomed. There was a bowl of cold water for the dog after she got done exercising and she really enjoyed that too. Denise T.

55Perfect spot! The yard is huge, but not to where you can’t find you dog quickly. Our dogs loved all the tennis balls and kiddie pool to cool off in. The yard has a huge tree as well for shading! Fully fenced & we only encountered an older lab for a few minutes, a few houses down so nothing for reactive dogs to worry about :)! We’d definitely come hang again. Jenna C.

55First time visitor there. Brought my 2 Hairless breeds, unable to bring them to a “regular” dog play area incase another dog jumps on them and scratches their skin, so this was beyond perfect being that we were the ONLY dogs there! They loved it, toys all over, shade areas all around. The grounds were free from any other dogs poop! They got to smell all around, very nice for dogs to have all they need to have a great dog time!Tami C.

55Tons of room to run! The kiddie pool was a bit dirty & I didn’t want to dump it & risk making mud. I didn’t mind it being dirty I just had to keep a closer eye on my dog to make sure he wasn’t drinking the water. My dog likes to be a mess so I always bring towels with me. If you don’t want dirt in your car or your seats to get wet, definitely bring some towels. I’ll definitely be booking again earlier in the day so we can spend more time there! It was very nice & quiet. It’s giving Lemmy(my dog) a chance to experience a backyard before we can get one of our own! Kylie S.

55Kathy’s yard was perfect for my dogs. They just needed a little time to run free and free they were. Since it was there first time, they spent it taking in all of the new smells. I will definitely be taking my dogs back there since it feels welcoming and serene there. My only regret was not getting pictures. I was enjoying watching my dogs run free for a moment.Alexandriena T.

55We enjoyed our time with our dog Nitro at Kathy’s Sniffspot! She had placed 2 bowls of freshwater out for him and there was a kiddie pool and an accessible water hose to cool off our boy! We just moved down here and our dog doesn’t have anywhere to run so this was perfect! Highly recommend!Brooke F.

55Kathy’s large one acre ,cleared lawn is very inviting. My dog loves to explore the expansive lawn and chase her ball . Her back yard is partially shaded by a large oak tree ( such a relief in the hot summer months). It’s our favorite place to hang out. Denise T.

55Kathy was wonderful. We've been to a handful of sniff spot and this, by far, was the absolute best. Our two dogs for to play on a well maintained lawn with lots and lots of shade. The kiddie pool was a huge hit! We brought towels because I knew there was no way we'd ever be able to keep two Goldens out of the water. We've found our sniff spot! We'll be returning regularly. ❤️Jane E.

55Kathy is very welcoming, hospitable and easy going. The parking was a generous space with easy access to the gate. Her yard was just as pictured; kept up, mowed, no old dog poop, secure fence, pup pool, toys and freshwater bowl. We enjoyed sitting in the large lawn chairs while our girl sniffed and ran. The yard was large enough for me to give our chuck-it ball a good throw and it didn't go over the fence! Which gave my girl some good exercise. This would be a good spot for someone with mobility challenges. Level ground, no holes, easy to maneuver. We will be back!Simone W.

FAQ about our Port Richey 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.
