55This was our first time at this Sniff Spot. Easy to find since it's on a corner. Parking was available right in front of the entry gate. It's a cute yard with a variety of plants for dogs sniff. Water & poop bags were provided. Although poop bags were easy to find, I did find several old, dry piles of feces. I picked up what I could while I walked the yard. My dogs were also interested in the people that walk in the neighborhood & the delivery trucks. It's a cute area. I will return to this spot in the future. Jackie G.

55My dog enjoyed checking out this sniffspot while we were passing through Evansville. The spot was well maintained, freshly mowed and clean. There are several trees in the spot that provide shade and were a source of small sticks that my dog very much enjoyed.
It's a corner lot in a neighborhood, so there is a decent bit of pedestrian and dog traffic going around the spot.Rebecca-Eli L.

55Delightful park like setting to safely allow dogs off leash. On Saturday it was beautiful weather and lots of people walking their dogs in the area, which was very interesting and entertaining for all of us.
The cedar trees were dropping needles and sap, so my long haired dog left with more than she brought in, but I don’t think it will be missed!Cynthia G.

55I can’t recommend this private dog park enough! It’s truly a worry-free haven for my 2 dogs to run and play freely. The yard is always spotless, and the owner’s take great care in maintaining it. One of my favorite features for the winter is the warm igloo like shelter. It is great to sit in there free from the wind, rain and cold temperatures and read while my dogs are playing. Booking is also very easy on the app for 30 minutes up to hours. Enjoy! Susan P.

FAQ about our Evansville 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 Evansville 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 22 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 8 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.
