55So glad I found this place! After moving to DC from Arlington I was worried I wouldn’t be able to find a large yard to run my dog (and the dogs I dog sit) but this place is PERFECT! The yard is long and makes the perfect run for fetch and zoomies. My dogs left happy! Thank you! We’ll be back! Adriana D.

55Keep walking to the left past the church—-there’s the church’s playground, and after that (almost to the house to the left of the church is a really big gate—-that’s the place. It’s a really long, long yard——lots of space to run!Arlene H.

55We loved this SniffSpot! Maverick had so much fun playing fetch with so much room to run 🎾 The neighbor’s small dog was outside when we were there, so that’s something to consider if your dog is anxious around other dogs. But we had a great experience, instructions were very clear, and I would definitely recommend! Thank you! ☺️Taylor T.

55We had a great time at the Sniff spot for my dog’s first birthday! Plenty of space for several dogs to run and play. I liked that the gate on Taylor Street was away from the house, so we could play music and talk without worrying about bothering the residents. The host was quick to respond to messages. Robin R.

55This was exactly what we were looking for! Not having a yard of our own, this is an incredible service. Nice long stretch of yard for repeated ball throwing. The parking right off of Taylor was super easy and convenient as well. Definitely will be back! Geoff W.

55This place is great! My dog had a lot of fun running around, and it’s nice and quiet. Just make sure you check the wooden gate on the other side of the yard to make sure it’s closed. Alli W.

55Really love what a peaceful and spacious place this is. I’ve been on and off crutches recovering from knee surgery and am so grateful this place allows me a place to exercise my pup without walking him. Thx!!Amy D.

55This was my first time using Sniffspot and it was so easy! Love the huge, grassy backyard with lounge chairs. 1.5 hours was perfect for some ball chasing, romping and lounging to beat the heat. Will definitely be back! Thank you!Stephanie C.

55This was a wonderful location. Very easy to access. I have a smaller dog who did creep under the edge of the fence at the end, so I recommend just keeping an eye on smaller dogs when near the entrance, but other than that it was a great location. My dog had a blast. Emily R.

55I’ll definitely be back! This spot was spacious, clean, and provided plenty of shade—perfect for getting my dog some exercise in the summer months. Loved this property and highly recommend it to others. Anita W.

55We absolutely adore this Sniffspot. It's secure, extra long, relatively even, and usually contains a few stray tennis balls for you to throw around with your pup! We usually book for the full hour, and our greyhound is tuckered out after about 7 minutes and a few good runs (that's greyhounds for you!). I hope we can continue to visit for years to come.Kaitlyn M.

55This was perfect! I rec'd a quick response from the owner, the instructions to enter were clear and there was easy access to the yard.
My dog and two others had a great and exhausting time running around. Just what we all needed.
Thanks Melissa!

FAQ about our Washington fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. 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. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.
