55Great spot! My dog is occasionally dog reactive and can’t go to dog parks so this was a great way for her to be able to run around off leash. She loved it.Alix W.

55Me and my dog Robert had a blast in this space; it was the perfect size and setup for an anxious dog like Robert to get lots of outdoor smells and run-around time while still being comfortable! We’ll definitely be coming back in the future Chris D.

55Gorgeous, grassy yard gave our pups lots of opportunity to sniff and run. Lots of human comforts too such as the picnic table where we enjoyed lunch. We will definitely be back! Kelli B.

55My little guy loved it! There was open space for him to run around, as well as a shady area to relax once he got tired. Christopher gave clear instructions and left water out for my pup. Kelsey H.

55Thee best sniffspot for our lil pups birthday! Unfortunately, traffic pushed our time back and Tracy was super accommodating despite! The yard had everything we could need: toys (so many so plentiful) water, a speaker, the cutest setup, a cool bungee tug of war thingy and even more. There were no worries with other doggies in the area and the kiddos who may be outside playing are super chill. Also, cleanliness was great.Nicky C.

55Another fun time here. My dog loved the amount of space, things to explore, and even did some people watching. (Just a few passerbys that didn’t bother us)
I love that there is sun and shade and plenty of water for the dogs. Ingrid F.

55Perfect spot for city dogs to get a bit of freedom to run and explore. Host was very nice and accommodating. Plenty of chairs for the humans. A few people (and dogs) walk by but the dog with me was too happy to care. Definitely going back. Ingrid F.

FAQ About Philadelphia 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. 10% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Philadelphia 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 606 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 951 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.
