55Juhi’s backyard was absolutely perfect for us! She has a fresh water bowl out for Larry and filled the pool up for him. The yard was open and clean and perfect for zoomies. There’s a basket of toys for pups, a table & umbrella for humans, and Juhi had a welcome note and a bottle of cold water waiting for us. We live in walking distance and will definitely be back! Overall great experience. Emilie K.

55Excellent, good size, well fenced back yard for the dog to run. But It was a hot day so after a while had to keep him off the porch because he just wanted to go inside! :)Chuck Y.

55Nice, shaded backyard with ample space for the dogs to run around. I had a question for the homeowner and he responded quickly. There were mosquitoes (like every backyard in Virginia) right now so you may consider applying bug spray.Christy R.

55Such a great yard! So much space for the dogs to run. Like most of northern Virginia it can get a bit buggy in the summer. Just bring some bug spray to help combat the gnats. Caroline A.

FAQ about our Sandy Hook 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Sandy Hook 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 131 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 24 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.
