55We brought our two Aussies to come have a play day here and they had the best time. The yard was so much bigger than pictured and had lots of places for them to explore! The pool also had little steps in there which was great for my dogs who like to sit in the water but are not too keen on lots of swimming. The hosts were great and left treats for the dogs along with water and bug spray to keep the mosquitoes away! Everything was percent and our dogs had the most amazing time! Kylie B.

55Perfect place to bring your pups! We booked this very last minute, not knowing what to expect with this being the first time using sniffspot. We were amazed by the beauty of this backyard and the quietness surrounding it. My two pups loved exploring the yard sniffing everywhere and getting a chance to experience a pool for the first time too.
The host was very nice and left a handwritten note plus treats for our boys !
Definitely will be back and recommend to all. Erica M.

55This is a perfect backyard for a Saturday rumble with your pooch. My girl Maggie loves new smells and the backyard has plenty of vegetation in a fully fenced backyard, along with a space for her to run a bit. I was met with a sweet welcome card and a treat my dog loved. There are numerous chairs on the porch to sit while your companion sniffs ferns and brush and trees and explores the yard.
As we were leaving, I immediately booked for the next weekend. I highly recommend this spot for dogs that enjoy exploring and need some off leash time. Great Sniff Spot!Holy S.

FAQ about our Sanford dog water parks
Are dog water 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 guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed.

How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
