55Great sniff spot! My dog was able to run around and get some outdoor play area in. The yard was very clean and there was a water hose available for water. There’s also a large seating area to watch your pets play. Whitney S.

55Great yard for dogs to run, sniff out new smells, play games, sit on the large deck and take in the sun, etc. Host (Erika) quickly answered my message when I at first couldn’t find the water. My pups had a great 1st visit today and we hope to return! Joy M.

55Huge, very nice yard! There were some neighbor dogs at the back chain link fence barking pretty continuously the first half of our visit and a kitty next door staring out the window facing the yard if those sort of distractions cause your dog to react. I found that with the size of the space I could pretty easily lure my pup to another area. We enjoyed our visit and Mikey is now sufficiently exhausted!Sharon G.

55So thankful that Erika was able to accommodate our last minute booking. It’s a great space and perfect for fetch.
There are other dogs in the neighborhood and you will hear them more than Erika’s dogs, but other than that it’s a great space.Laura A.

FAQ about our Highland Springs 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.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Highland Springs area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 218 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
