55We were very sad when our usual Sniffspot stopped hosting temporardue to leftover debris and damage from the storm. This sniff spot is right next to our old one and it is just as good. Very large space, quiet, and well maintained. The boys had a blast. If you have a tiny dog like a chihuahua or similar size they may be able to get out under the front gate area, but big dogs will be fine. The first thing I did was check out the perimeter and it is sealed. We will definitely be back here often! So happy to find this new spot on here :)Michelle D.

Julie's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Tampa | Sniffspot
55Perfect for chasing balls! Fantastic fully fenced Augustine-covered yard that’s clean, open, and shady, and in a great location. Host was incredibly responsive and helpful as well. Someone was outside working on front yard when we arrived, but he was incredibly sweet and sat inside his car so we could slip into the backyard. Definitely would go back, most likely during week and off-hrs.
(For those with reactive puppers like us who love and depend on Sniffspots, just know it’s private but still the city. It’s in a neighborhood and surrounded by homes, so there’s a chance of hearing others, incl children. We went during a quieter time so our dogs weren’t too bad but neighbors have a dog and were out calling them. There was also some sounds from house and front yard so we had a few instances of ours barking. Would totally go back, though! Great spot!)Kelley S.

55This was amazing. They had the Necessities needed, water/pooper scooper/ bags. The yard is big enough for my very large Doberman to run himself out. He left there happy and tired. The hosts answered questions immediately and were available if I had any questions while I was there. They gave us our privacy though I would love to meet them next time we visit. The yard was beautiful and my 1 year old baby had a great time. Dawn P.

55Very spacious backyard, private and peaceful, fully fenced, with plenty of shade and spots to explore! There was seating and a little stand with doggy supplies like a water bowl, bags, and balls. We also had access to the hose on the side to cool our dog down after a while. We loved it and will definitely be back!Melissa L.

5510/10 Very spacious yard! Mostly high fences and very quiet around the area. Me and Raiden loved it. And just a little FYI there are some local cats walking a around if your dog is reactive. Karina R.

55Wonderful first experience at this SniffSpot! Lots of fun things to do and plenty to sniff. Our dog loves to dig and she was in heaven at the dig pit. It wasn’t sunny when we went but there is plenty of shade if needed. We’ll def be coming back! Jeanine B.

55Have tried to figure out where I could take the dogs, other than a dog park, for years. Finally! They ran until they could run no further. Love that these are popping up! Thanks for your gracious hospitality. Michelle B.

FAQ about our Tampa 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.
