55I enjoyed this spot! It looks exactly like the pictures and had parking available. I appreciated the host letting me know beforehand that it was muddy so I could bring a towel to wipe my dog's paws. It was a decent sized spot and perfect for a mid-weeK visit. I will say that there is some covered patio furniture so I tried to keep my dog from peeing on them (territorial marker). Hannah N.

55This was perfect for our very anxious rescue who loves to play ball & run! Description is accurate, double dog door access was especially nice. Very quiet, clean and comfortable. We will be back! :)Mallory L.

FAQ about our Rocky River 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.
