55Wonderful space!! Lots of space and lots of fun activities for the dogs! I wasn’t sure how my dog would feel about the astroturf, but he (and I) loved it! Very clean and quiet. My dog could see the chickens next door through the slats in the fence and was very intrigued, but lots of other space and activities to distract him. Emily N.

55Perfect spot! Easy to find, plenty of parking, easy directions to enter the space, everything was exactly as described. There were obstacles, water, toys, a hose, and clean up was very easy. There was a shaded area to sit, and we really enjoyed our time there! Would definitely return, our dog is very reactive, and she had no issues at all and enjoyed her time investigating off-leash. Thank you for sharing your space!!Sarah B.

55Space as advertised - clean and open yard. Area is easily accessible with street parking available. This was my first experience playing with my dog on turf. No complaints, seems a great way to avoid muddy paws and a dirty car!
Host sent a warm welcoming text and outlined clear directions for our visit. I recommend. Jarrell D.

55We loved it! We are training Brie on nose work and needed an outdoor space without too much distraction. This was perfect! It was spacious, clean, and well organized. We even tried agility ramp to build some confidence. We will definitely back because it was perfect! Stacey K.

55Great spot. My puppy had a wonderful time exploring the area. The fence is sturdy and has no openings so I didn't have to worry about him being off leash. My puppy enjoyed playing fetch with the toys provided and using the agility course. Dominique X.

55Great SniffSpot - completely turf with lots of agility equipment! It’s very secure and is a great option if you’re trying to keep your dog clean. Danielle came out to show us how to use the slatmill, which was so cool! We will definitely be back to try it again. Jessica L.

55Great, clean, quiet space for our dogs. Loved the agility equipment that gave us something fun to do with them beyond just playing fetch.
One of our dogs is reactive, and thankfully from this visit I can confirm we didn’t hear or see any humans or animals.
Thanks for a great space. We’ll be back!Hannah P.

55Lovely setup with lots to keep your pup busy. AstroTurf was awesome to have following the recent rainy days. My dogs loved the tunnel, pool, and exploring every inch of the space. We will definitely be returning.
For those who this may be of concern, you can hear normal neighborhood noise including voices from neighboring houses. Not an issue for my dogs at all, even my fearful rescue. But I know some dogs might be sensitive to hearing people. Deana P.

55My dog had so much fun! It was so nice to have her off leash and able to 'just be'. Of the amenities available she enjoyed most the refreshing dog pool. And it was so neat to be able to practice 'weave' while there. Astroturf was awesome! Felt like such a clean environment and standing was so comfortable. Between those two points and how relaxing and worry free it felt? Could have easily napped standing there. Towards the end of session heard faint clucking from a neighboring yard, which was enough for dog to hear but not go over threshold and allowed for light training moment. All in all, great time!Lexie L.

55Great yard & host! All the amenities and clear instructions. A note to those with a nervous pup — my dog takes at least one “good” interaction with anything new before he accepts it’s not scary. He usually opens up on his second visit to a Sniffspot. Not sure if it was all the dog smells or happy smells, but he was zoomie-ing around the yard within the first ten minutes. Looking forward to next visit! Sarah A.

FAQ about our Catonsville 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.
