55This was a great experience for our two dogs. There was plenty of shade and Shawna had a baby pool for dipping and cooling off. She even provided treats and towels for drying off. There was a nice table for us to sit and enjoy. We will be back!Pat L.

55This was our very first SniffSpot visit and our experience was completely perfect.
Shawna and Khloe are gracious hosts. We were greeted promptly when we arrived, and were walked over to the fenced area. They provided cold bottled water for me and fresh water bowls throughout for Jasper. Khloe prepared a special treat bag for Jasper which was really sweet.
There is a bench to sit and relax, a swing to enjoy and the area is quiet and peaceful. It is truly a beautiful area. The land was spacious and fully fenced and I felt entirely safe letting Jasper roam freely. Jasper loved exploring all of the smells and he especially loved the kiddie pool.
While there, he saw his very first horse up close. He was exhausted by the time we got home and We cant wait to go back!Miriane M.

55This was our first time using Sniffspot, and Shawna was so gracious and patient with us as we fumbled through! She was transparent ahead of time about current mud conditions, which the mud and puddles made the experience all the more wonderful for the pups. Would love to return!Christy M.

FAQ about our North Fort Myers 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.
