55My Archie had a great time! He is a very timid dog - and the first thing he always does is finds a corner to hide. There were lots of places he enjoyed exploring and sniffing — and he was always secure. We will be back. Sarah R.

55This was a wonderful spot for me and my dog. The sprinkler was lovely and there was plenty of room to both play fetch and chill out. Be careful to latch the gate properly in the front - it is a little tricky. Otherwise it is nice and secure for a medium sized dog like mine.Kateri K.

Laura's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Milwaukee | Sniffspot
55Laura's yard was a great location for us to let our dog run and play. This was our first time trying Sniffspot and will definitely be back! All her photos were exactly what the yard looked like. There was a small drop off in the yard, which was fine for our dog but if you have an older dog or one with hip problems just be aware so they don't go running over the ledge. Emily C.

55Dogs had a great visit. This was their second attempt at learning how to be dogs and explore on their own off leash. Was a little bummed to see the kiddie pool empty as that was a big bonus at booking this yard but there is lots of summer left! The pups had lots of places to explore and room to run. I do have older dogs so they do alot of running more sniffing for them. They are currently snoozing away on the couch after today's visit.Krystal A.

55Scooby and I had a relaxing afternoon playtime here! Easy to find and spacious enough to do some running. Because of the direction the house is facing, if you’re booking in the morning, you’ll probably get more sun - the afternoon was nice and shadyKateri K.

55Nice yard! Some small gaps in the fence that my dog (a 13lb terrier) probably could have gotten through if she tried but we didn’t have any issues. A beautiful cat did watch us through the window but it didn’t bother Chilli at all. Sara C.

55Had a great time today. Just trying to teach my dogs how to be dogs without me leading them around. They aren't use to just being able to chill in a yard. This was a perfect yard to do that in. Krystal A.

55You pull up all the way into the driveway and close the gate behind you, which is really convenient! There were some really cute and clever areas for my dog to crawl under/behind (like the stairs). Lots of great sniffing spots! The back porch has a window ledge that my dog was able to look into (close to where the cat may sit). Just a heads up for those who have nosy (and rude lol) dogs that don't mind their business.

FAQ about our Saint Francis 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.
Are 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 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 guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Saint Francis area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 115 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 14 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
