55My dogs had a blast! We enjoyed the pool with our pups! This place is the perfect spot for your fur babies to let loose and run around. Taylor was so nice and accommodating. Jocelyn B.

55Wonderful spot. Tons of shade for everyone, toys and water easily accessible. Didn’t hear or see any dogs/people which was nice for our reactive dog! So many fun extras, we’ll definitely be back. Jeannie S.

55We booked one hour with the pool and it was so fun, we’ll definitely be doing a few hours next time. It felt so special and personal and my dog Snoopy loved every second of it!! Victoria S.

55The spot was clean and well taken care of with all possible amenities you could need readily available (e.g., treats, hand sanitizer, poop bags, water, toys, etc). Ru loved running around after her ball and a squeaky toy! Will definitely be returning so we can check out that awesome pool :)Sophie H.

55We had a great Labor Day afternoon at this Sniffspot + adding the pool. Everything was just as advertised. They even had a few towels out, and so many toys. Rented the space for 2 hours which was a perfect amount of the time. Zula loves to swim & it was Ted’s first time. By the end of the day Ted was jumping into the pool & both dogs were happy sleepy pups. The artificial grass was a great to have below the pool for the dogs to run around & stay clean. Highly recommend. Cory B.

55Best place to go in Lemon Grove. It's about 8 minutes from my house and a wonderful place to take my boys at night after I get off work and the parks are unavailable. David L.

55Super easy to find and get in. Shaded area and a table you could work or read at while your dogs play! Backyard has so much space and very clean. Mostly turf so you don’t have to worry to much of your dog likes to munch on plants. Will be coming back very bre soon! Emily K.

55This spot was awesome! There was a sign outside that welcomed the dogs and human. The yard was very clean, the toys were well organized and plenty to choose from and they had treats to bribe dogs to sit still for a picture. They also have an upper deck for a pool as an option. One of our favorite places so far. Only smiles at this location :)Sophia C.

55Such a great space! They left out plenty of towels and toys, brushes, and poop bags for us and then let us have our privacy. We had 8 dogs there for an hour and a half and it was so much fun!!! We will def be back. Just a heads up, there are lots of foxtails on the hill behind the pool (foxtails are pretty much everywhere in the summer in SD, but just wanted to give a warning to look out and check your dogs when you leave :) ) Sandra S.

55This spot was awesome! Our 2 dogs had a blast! There is so much space and the host really made sure that we had everything we needed and more! The pool is big and clean and they even provided towels and pool toys for us and the pups! The inflatable fire hydrant is so cool and was a great way to cool off. It was super easy to find and we were able to park right in the driveway. The space was super clean and completely fenced in so we didn’t have to stress at all. There was also plenty of room to run around and play fetch! Thank you so much for such a great experience for our pups birthday! Will definitely be returning! Savannah D.

55Super easy, high fencing, great spot for sniffing and playing. My (large) dog was tired after a half hour but street is quiet and I’d love to come back!Adriana M.

55Great open and very well-fenced spot with lots of smells and textures to explore (mulch, turf, concrete, etc.). Loads of toys, treats, and other thoughtful touches. Host was very kind and responsive. Our dog-reactive rescue pup was very happy to not have any dog encounters or hear any dogs, which was fantastic! Note that there is some background freeway/traffic noise and the occasional motorcycle, which shouldn't be a problem for most dogs but was a little tougher for our pup due to her noise reactivity. Thank you for a great, safe visit and helping us build Cleo's confidence!Suzie S.

55Another great visit! Ryder loves sniffing around this yard, and there's a nice covered patio for him to cool off on when he gets hot.
We did see an off leash dog at a property nearby, but her owners were with her, and she did not pay any attention to us. Being able to park in the driveway is a huge plus since it allows us to get into the yard without walking down the street.Lori and Todd S.

55Nice sized backyard. So many toys to choose from, and they had doggy bags, treats and hand sanitizer too. Pups were worn out after 30 min, and that’s rare for my dog Benny lol. We came on a warm, sunny day, luckily there is a nice shaded portion of the backyard for pups (and humans!) to sit and cool off. We’ll be back 😊Connie L.

FAQ about our Potrero small dog parks
Are small 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 are 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Potrero?
There are 64 small dog parks in the Potrero area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
