55The yard is beautiful! Great size for any dog. I arrived a half hour early and nobody was in there, so he let me get in early which was so nice! I’ll definitely be back.Adryona W.

55The yard was massive and so cute next to the creek. The dogs loved having such a spacious place to play. The obstacle course was so much to try too. And the swing for adults was a plus!!Stephanie E.

55This is a great spot. The dogs had a blast going up the hill, then flying down. Lots of good sniffing. My only complaint, and I didn't remove a star because it's specific to my dogs, is the walking path right next to the property. Every time somebody walked or biked by, my dogs would chase and bark at them. Anthony G.

55Awesome spot for anyone with an athletic dog who loves to run and try agility equipment. My GSD and I did a bunch of training and a bunch of running and loved it. Angela L.

55This is the PERFECT spot. My dog can’t go to normal dog parks due to being reactive and being a good escape artist. He was able to run around and get tired out without me having to worry. 11/10 recommend!!! Keana M.

55This is an absolutely fantastic location. There are other dogs that walk by on the path but the privacy netting helps with a barrier.
Fun toys, great space and tons of room for the pup to burn off some energy! Will certainly be back - thank you! Alicia A.

55Prepare to be amazed! We had such a great time here. Very large back yard. I swung the Chuck it as hard as I could and didn't reach the other side at all. There is a sign by the entrance welcoming you in. Plenty of toys, fresh water and bowls are available at the picnic table. Of course for a yard this big I did manage to chuck the ball into the enclosed garden twice 😁 The host here is so thoughtful that along one side of the yard the fence has been blacked out to cut off the view of the dogs being walked on the trail next to it. Access to a private agility course, refreshments for my dog, private entrance and many more amenities make this spot easy to love. Andrea C.

55This is a nice, secure spot with visibility of the whole yard from most areas and a well-maintained fence. The agility equipment is sturdy and there's lots of toys for bigger dogs. There's also a picnic table for relaxing. My dog thoroughly enjoyed his visit. Kristine H.

FAQ about our Apple Valley dog water parks
Are dog water 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 guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Apple Valley?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water 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 dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training 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.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
