55We had an amazing time at Lynn’s! She put out fresh ice water for our pup before we arrived and left out bug spray and chairs. She came out to say hello and was wonderful with our crazy girl, even when she rudely barged into her house, haha! The yard was perfect and our pup loved running around and getting her zoomies out. We had so much fun!Rebecca H.

55This yard was perfect for our dogs today. There isn’t much shade but we loved that you could not see through the fence. We could hear the neighbors on their yard, but since we could not see them the dogs didn’t mind too much. This is perfect for a local yard!! Nora T.

55My dog had a great time sniffing and he was immediately comfortable in the yard. He ran around a lot - there were a lot of backyard items he could sniff and just check out so he was well entertained. The fence is high and fully covered so he was not distracted by any noise or people outside. Honestly it’s a quiet street also. I thought the yard was a bit smaller than I hoped for, but my dog had a good time. Host is an excellent communicator also! Thank youJasmine D.

55Repeat customer and loved it just as much as the first time. Great communication and a nice space to let multiple dogs run loose. There was briefly a dog on the other side of the fence but it was not visible and did not make any noise. Rebecca M.

55Queso and I had a wonderful visit here. Very well kept yard with plenty of space to run around. The host even filled the water bowl up for us before we got there. Olivia L.

55I brought my two dogs over for some off-leash romping. The yard is very nice, well decorated, with plenty of interesting things for dogs to sniff. Lynn had a bowl of ice water out along with a trash can and poop bags, all of which were used during our visit. The neighborhood is quiet. My pups had a great time and we'll look forward to coming back again!Darcy P.

55Really great visit again! Pro tip for anyone living in Philly - this spot is only like a 17 minute drive even from Fairmount, so a really good location. Also I appreciate how private it is! Cannot hear or see another dog or person. Host even left out nice lawn chairs for me and water for my dog! Jasmine D.

FAQ about our Norwood 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Norwood 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 370 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 49 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.
