55Super easy parking and access. Wonderful hospitality- treats for humans and dogs, a toy basket, even a stick library, lol! Nice yard with lots of planting to sniff around. Very sturdy fencing around yard. The fence does border a neighborhood sidewalk so be on alert if your dog(s) tend to react to someone walking their dog. Could be a good location to work on curbing fence reactions, if you have dogs like mine that do that. Lori H.

55This was a great experience! I live in a condo and it was great to let my dog run free without a leash. There were dog treats, toys and a doddie disposable station. Thanks so much!Karen D.

55Our favorite SniffSpot so far! The yard is great and the amenities that the host provides are amazing. We had so much fun! There was fresh water & treats for our pup and for us humans, a basket FULL of awesome toys that were in great shape, sticks, first aid kit, hand sanitizer, cute add-on extras (cold sodas, Red Bull), places to sit, a pet waste station - everything you could possibly need is provided. Looking forward to visiting again!Amanda Y.

55Nice sized yard, easy parking, simple to get in/out, awesome patio, and good lighting for when it gets dark. Only had a few dogs walk by considering it was a corner lot (5:30-6:30pm Wed). Recommend! Caitlin F.

55We love this SniffSpot! Toys and treats are rotated and in great shape. Water is always fresh and ready for us & our pup. The yard is well maintained. We visited at sunset and the lights were turned on for us as soon as it started to get dark out :) This is by far the best SniffSpot we’ve been to!Amanda Y.

55This is a great sniff spot! The yard is large enough for my 65 lb dog to run full speed, it was clean, there was a box full of toys to play with, and water for both dogs and humans. They also had treats there! We will definitely be back!Candy N.

55We are a fellow Sniffspot host, we needed a neutral place for Andy to meet his birth brother for the first time since their adoptions. The spot is clean and well-maintained. Water and toys for pups were provided, and a trash can with poop bags are conveniently located. The spot is in a calm location, with not much noise from the street or neighbors. Lots of plants and pee-mail for the dogs to explore. We didn't even hear the dogs from inside the house! Andy gives this spot 5 stars. Sandy A.

55Amazing spot, hosts were kind to put out snacks and water for humans and doggos. Tons of toys! The yard itself is very neat/clean and pretty flat too, so less risk of injury. Our boys had a wonderful time we will definitely be coming back😊Deja R.

55Great Sniffspot!! Easy parking, well-maintained yard with lots of shade. Toys available. Water bowl filled. Great size for keeping eyes on the dogs but large enough for multiple dogs (we had 4 labradors). Will definitely visit again! Katherine Z.

55The yard was clean and had so many things for my dogs to sniff and explore. There were toys and treats and water for the dogs, as well as a poop station with bags. There was a table and chairs available for the humans, as well as water and a small selection of snacks
There were even outdoor lights that came on as it got darker. My dogs aren't really ones for toys, but they had so much fun running around, especially my coonhound, who I swear must be related to the energizer bunny.
The one downside I found is that if you have balance issues, there's no railing to go up the porch steps.
But overall this was a wonderful spot and my dogs had an absolute blast. Kimberly H.

FAQ about our Fairfax 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.
How can I find fully fenced dog parks in Fairfax?
There are 334 fully fenced dog parks in the Fairfax area. The most popular fully fenced park is . You can browse all of our fully fenced dog parks here.
How do I know if a fully fenced dog park works for my dog?
Many people looking for fully fenced parks have dogs that are not good with voice control. Start by applying basic filters, such as fences height and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. You can see attributes of fences such as height, gaps and fencing type to find the perfect fenced-in space for dogs. You can filter by size to make sure you have plenty of space, or a smaller space if you prefer a neighborhood park. You can browse on a map by park location to find one in your city or near your city. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off-leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible near the space. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to check features you want for your activity, such as fresh water, trail features such as soft trails or walking trails, or even water fountains. If you prefer wood chips, many of our parks have wood chips or indoor space if you prefer a beautiful park building.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot fully fenced dog park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit use by pregnant dogs and we do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules, such as staying within the designated off-leash areas. Each park location also has their own set of rules that guests need to follow, such as limiting excessive barking.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot fully fenced dog 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.
