55This is a beautiful spot and Seth I’d a wonderful host. He could not be more helpful or accommodating! There was a fresh bowl of water waiting and also a place to dispose of poop bags. Our dog had a lot of fun running around, sniffing the leaves and getting in some Zoomies!
Highly recommend!Cathryn S.

55Lovely spot for sniffs! Pleasant, quiet area with nice trees around. It was Gracie's first time here so she only spent 15 minutes before she wanted to go, but we will definitely be back!Liz F.

55It was a great visit. Seth is attentive, friendly, and dedicated to helping us improve the lives of our furry loved ones. He keeps the area very clean and puts out water In case the dogs get thirsty. Though it takes me an hour to get there, I won't be going to anyone else

55This was incredible, the host was very communicative and had thought of everything. We went in a snow storm and everything was still ready and perfect for us (even fresh water for our pup). Would definitely recommend for a stress free off leash spot!Nicholas M.

55Seth’s backyard was the perfect space for our pup. I felt comfortable knowing the space was fully fenced in, especially where it was Knox’s first time off of the leash. Seth was easy to communicate with, left water and trash bags out, and even came outside to introduce himself toward the end of our visit. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking!Jordan L.

55Seth was so responsive and kind! The space is just the right size and even though the neighborhood seems quiet anyway, the high fencing was a comfort for me and my often-reactive dog. We will be back, thank you so much!Allyson S.

55Seth's is a pretty wooded space with room for my dog to run full out and sniff to her heart's content. Seth was very responsive to me, as a new visitor with questions. Cody and I enjoyed ourselves thoroughly and will be visiting again soon :) Thank you, Seth! PS. My dog is a short, low to the ground, basset-shaped--tubular, man!-- dog, and the yard was very secure, which made me feel secure, too.Holly P.

55We'll be back! This is exactly the space we need to help our pup Cass get her zoomies out while we're still working on her socialization/manners.
Seth gave great instructions for arrival/parking. The fence is tall and solid, so Cass didn't notice/freak out when the mail truck went by, and was easily distracted when another dog started barking somewhere in the distance. Very secure gate; just make sure to pull it tight behind you to latch. Great open space to sprint around, with trees to do figure 8s and a fun bench to go over/under if you want to try some agility work. She loved using the space under the kids play structure as her fort/safe zone during chase games. (It's not toooo kid-sized; you'll be able to get your pup out if they decide to be stubborn!) The water left out for us was clearly fresh, since there was only the thinnest layer of ice on top in very chilly weather. There were poop bags (didn't notice these until after using our own, hopefully they weren't special/compostable...) and the pail to leave them in was empty when we arrived. Seth even put a gate up blocking park of the deck so that over-enthusiastic doggos like Cass couldn't wander up to the sliding door and potentially see the pup staying at the house right now.
Definitely not a problem, but worth noting that there are some larger bits of mulch/wood chips on the ground, so just keep an eye on your chewers. They appear to be plain/untreated wood, safe for kids and dogs as long as they won't swallow big pieces like some pups I know!Sarah G.

FAQ about our Scarborough small dog parks
Are small 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 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 park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Scarborough?
There are 33 small dog parks in the Scarborough area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
