55This yard was perfect to burn some steam. There were great accommodations as far as parking in the drive, water hose for water, toys, some treats provided. Only thing I would say is if you have a reactive pup, the neighbors are close so it was sometimes distracting with people doing yard work. We used this as a training opportunity so it was great for us! Can’t wait to visit again! Kelcee W.

55It was a great spot, clean and nice. Our dogs really enjoyed their time here. The host was very kind and friendly, great communication before and after our visit. The host provided treats, water, and left some toys outside for the dogs to play. The fence is very high, which makes it safe and secure for the dogs to enjoy their time and play.Jacqueline T.

55Wonderful spot, fully fenced with no gaps, nice sized yard to toss ball and work on recall and do tricks. Host had some dog treats, toys, and water was still connected with a water bowl and also chairs. This was my pup’s first sniff spot experience which he seemed to enjoy. I will defiantly be back!Ninette M.

55Wonderful sniffspot for my reactive pup Milo! He had tons of fun running up and down the hill, sniffing around the playground and deck equipment, and just having the time of his life. Host was super accommodating - leaving treats, poop bags, toys, and water!
Note to reactive pup parents - there’s a neighbor with a reactive pup, with the chain fence. I almost walked out with milo and then heard the pup barking. Just a note when you are entering or exiting the space!
We can’t wait to be back - this is a gem of a spot!! Kaylynn H.

55This place was great! We had no issues with the neighbor dog - there were several dogs being walked in the neighborhood, which is obviously not in the control of the host, but something to be aware of if you have a reactive dog like me. The yard itself is large and fenced, as promised. I’m sure we will be back!Alison R.

55Wonderful sniffspot located centrally to Willoughby! The fencing was super secure and added a lot of privacy to the spot - which is absolutely amazing for my reactive pup! Host even supplied water, treats, and poop bags. Would recommend this spot! Kaylynn H.

55This was an amazing spot to take our Jack Russell so he could just RUN! The yard was clean & the shade from the tree was perfect on this hot day. The patio area for us to sit & watch him run, was great! And what a nice touch that water, treats, & waste bags were provided! This is literally perfect & such a great idea! Thank you for sharing your large space with us!Dennis C.

55We all loved the spot. Just enough room for my 2 pitbulls to run crazy. The high fence is great. Its solid with no holes for the fur babies to peep through and get distracted. And the host was very attentive. I will definitely be back!Ashley H.

55This is a great location! The yard is a perfect size with lots of room for the pups to run and sniff around. And then take a rest in the shade. The fence is beautiful and secure. The pups had a great time and the grandmas had fun, too. Thank you!Maria J.

55I live in a townhome with not much of a yard. I have a husky who is hit or miss with other dogs so I’m skeptical to bring her to public parks. This was great for my potentially reactive dog. I brought both of my huskies and they had a blast running around off-leash. The yard was big and fully fenced in. There were treats, poop bags, toys, bones, and a big water bowl. They even set out some bug spray and fresh water bottles for me. Great experience and my dogs are happy and ready for a big nap. 10/10 recommend! Emily L.

55This spot is perfect for me and my pups. Plenty of space to explore safely for the little one. The fence is beautiful and tall with no gaps. The yard is big enough to play fetch with the big one. And there's a great tree for resting in the shade, and there are chairs for the humans. We'll be back!Maria J.

FAQ about our Willoughby 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.
Are 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 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Willoughby area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 140 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 29 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
