55We had an amazing time. The yard is beautiful, the boys had a lot of fun sniffing and running around.
I felt my boys were totally safe here.
Rachel was very kind, she put water, toys, poopy bags, and even treats out for us.
I’m definitely going back to her .Anna M.

55We enjoyed our visit to this spot, and it's larger than most of what's available in Orange County! Though it's cool and grey today, one of my dogs lounged suggestively in the empty wading pool until I took the hint and put some water in it....so thanks for that, too. :)Eliza R.

55Our pup loved chasing her tennis ball up and down and all around on the grass. I loved how secure the yard is and walked around to make sure our dog couldn’t escape. The caddy full of dog toys, hand sanitizer, bug spray, poo bags and wipes was convenient and such a nice bonus. We felt very comfortable on the patio sofa, and also appreciated the water for both humans and pups alike. Thank you. Christine T.

55The backyard is clean, well-groomed, and offers plenty of running space for my large, energetic 10-month old puppy. The host has a welcome cart with treats, large assortment of various-sized toys, sunscreen, hand-sanitizer, etc. Private and secure. Also provided is comfortable seating for the humans.Linda M.

FAQ about our Fountain Valley 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.

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.
