55The only Sniff Spot we go to! When. you find the best, forget the rest! Nice pool for the dogs, there's a shallow hump for them to get out of the water but also look for the stairs to the left for easier getting out of the pool! Big yard for zoomies and courtesy cabana with all the necessities! What's not to love?Laura M.

55Our second time going to Skit's Creek and definitely not our last! This time we brought our GSD/ACD cross, Rogue, as well as our Boxer, Wrecker. They LOVED the pool and being able to have zoomies on grass again! Rogue happily rolled in the cool grass and had a blast chasing Wrecker around. Her first pool experience was shocking for her, she thought she could just walk in like she does in creeks and rivers, she ended up falling in a few times. She took it with grace though and tried to figure it all out. Hopefully she'll be brave enough to step off Melissa D.

55The host had everything we needed to be comfortable, ie: towels, dog water and treats, as well as cold water for human guests. It was very relaxing sitting under the gazebo.

55The dog water is placed perfectly near the pool (my puppy found it right away). The pool and yard was very clean and comfortable. Host was not seen so it felt private. We would definitely like to return. Thank you! 🐾❤️Brandy J.

55We had an absolute BLAST here! This spot is amazing in every way! My pup loved sniffing around the turf for the first little while, then slowly made his way to the steps and into the pool for some jumping and splashing! The host left out a table with towels (for the pup), toys, sunscreen, treats, and a water bowl. There are also poo bags if you forget to bring your own and need to clean up a mess. HIGHLY recommend this little backyard oasis and will definitely be back again!
Side note...my pup was not a fan of the owl near the pool 😂 once he was able to get up the courage to sniff it up close, he was totally fine and back to jumping in the pool lol.Holly B.

55We loved it! Rosie was a little apprehensive with the pool, but we are hoping eventually she will like to swim. The umbrellas were a much appreciated touch. Stephanie W.

55This was our absolute favorite Sniffspot we’ve been to! The yard and pool were clean and provided enough space for my little one to run and play. The little landing in the pool was the perfect area for him to play in and relax. We will be back! makayla r.

FAQ about our San Tan Valley 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. 0% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the San Tan Valley 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 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 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.
