55The spot is fenced securely the whole way around. There is a lot of space and privacy. Easy to walk with your dog. Some signs of rod runner and rabbits which my dog loved to sniff. The area was clean and easy to walk. With lots of variety for Grace. Easy for her old mother to navigate. A previous guest
Left some dog waste just as I entered but other than that nice and very clean. I took our doggie baggies and I’m just saying this to remind guests to please clean up after yourselfs. This place is so awesome I want it to remain here. The owner even left water for us and our dog. So sweet and thoughtful. Thanks for this great space loved it!!!! My burst visit. I’ll take pictures when I go back today.Helen B.

55Brought my foster doggies & never seen them more happy & comfortable🥹. This was their second time coming. The first time they were a little scared & didn’t roam much but now they run around like they own the place 😂. I always look forward to a cold drink from the fridge & the yummy cookies 🍪 Araceli leaves for us humans! I love sitting on the tree swings.. so relaxing. Beautiful backyard with beautiful vibes!❤️Crystal E.

55This spot was amazing. My 8 month old Akita loved it. There is PLENTY of shade. We spent 2 hours here. My dog watched the chickens and loved running around the property. The host is friendly and provided both dog AND people treats. My dog is tired and so am I. It was like a vacation. Lots of seating in different areas around the yard and nice water features. It's a good place to let your dog roam and just relax.Sarah R.

55Thank you to the hostess with the mostest! Plenty of shade and water for my dogs, me and my daughter, to beat the heat. Araceli makes us feel so special. My daughter and I each painted Lil birdhouses too with the craft & paint supplies left out for us. Appreciated and enjoyed the pool, cookies, snacks, drinks, dog treats, dog toys, eggs, and plants. 😀 Don't hesitate to get a membership!Dorecca S.

55What a great place! Beautiful fully fenced yard, super friendly host, tons of shade and comfortable seating everywhere, human and dog snacks, even had games and crafts for people! Our pup had an AMAZING time sniffing everywhere, running in the huge yard, jumping in the stream, and staring at the chickens. This spot is an absolute gem and I’m so glad Araceli shares her space!

55This place was so cool! Araceli was a great host and really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome at her place. She provided snacks and drinks and even gave us fresh eggs from her chickens! We celebrated our dog Koda’s 3rd birthday here and he had blast playing in the yard, barking at her turkey and swimming in the pool. She also had an agility area so there’s something for everyone. Even though we came for Koda, her backyard was amazing and made for a really cool place to hang out. We will definitely be back again soon!Kazi M.

55This is definitely one of the best sniffspots we've visited! Tons of room to run, a well-maintained dog-friendly pool, snacks + drinks for humans and doggos, and friendly chickens to say hi to (in their own contained area.) Our host was also very kind and accommodating of our dog's needs, and gave us a nice gift. Highly recommend checking this spot out, we'll be back for sure! Arabella R.

55Our 1st visit was amazing!😍 I brought my 3 furbabies & they couldn’t stop sniffing & smiling🥹. The host was very sweet quickly greeting us & showed us around. We enjoyed the human treats & warm bonfire. It was cool to see the chickens, ducks & turkeys 🦃 too (our dogs are reactive to small animals but they were so amazed by the space, they quickly took a look and want somewhere else). The pool looked so clean and refreshing. I also loved the tree swings to relax for a bit. The fencing has covers so no distractions from surrounding neighbors. We will definitely be coming back again soon!🩷Crystal E.

55You're the best Araceli! I love that it can be 90+ degrees and it's still a perfect day to visit your place because of all the shaded seating and tree areas and water areas for your guests and dogs. I was a little worried about bringing my mom out in the heat, but she was comfortable and loved the property.
This is a fun, safe place to beat the heat with your loved ones and fur babies!Dorecca S.

55We went for our 2nd time but it was our first evening visit. My dogs already knew what door to go through as soon as we jumped out the car! Haha Araceli left us some yummy human snacks and cold drinks. The pool was super clean and felt amazing now that summer is kicking in. The nighttime is definitely a chill vibe because of the beautiful lights. The host is super friendly and my dogs immediately were friendly to her (dogs know who dog people are lol). She really makes us feel comfortable and right at home. Not only is it good for our dogs, but even for us people, we need to intentionally set time aside to relax and unwind a bit. Love this place so much!Crystal E.

55This time around I brought my foster dogs. Two small dogs, one chihuahua & one terrier. They are very skittish & scared/survival mode but this place had them smiling & relaxed the whole time!!! They didn’t even pay much attention to the chickens or turkeys. I relaxed on the swinging chair and it felt so comfortable. This is one of the first times I come at sunset & it’s even more beautiful at night with the lights! Araceli as always was a sweet host and left us some yummy human snacks, cold drinks and cookies! I’m gonna have to start booking 2 hr slots because that 1 hr definitely goes by fast. Also, make sure to wear some light insect repellent, since there is water, more bugs and mosquitoes are present.

FAQ about our Sky 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.
