55Place was amazing. Host was very friendly. Bentley loved it, did a lot of running around and even got in the pond. We will be booking a longer staying when we come back. Only tip, make sure your dog does not drink pond water, as with any body of water in summer it can contain toxic algae. Anaviv M.

55What a great spot! Pond with gravel trail around, tons of areas to explore and smell, kayaks for paddling around. Lots of fun for dogs and their humans!
Just be aware that there are other people on the property, so make sure your dog is people friendly! Marisa D.

55This was our first location that we went to using Sniffspot. We have a 9 month old rescue that is new on training. We wanted to have a spot where she could have more room to roam. Our grandchildren ages 9 and 13 absolutely loved it too.
We highly recommend it.

55Loved the pond! There were hammocks, boats and docks as well as toys for the dogs. It was nice to have a hose next to the parking to rinse off the dogs also. Host came out towards the end and was very nice. Would definitely come again.Charlene T.

55Love the space the dogs have and the option to swim, there are people occasionally coming and going which is no problem unless you’re trying to find a private spot for a reactive dog and are nervous to have them run into someone off leash. We don’t have that problem, but for those who do it’s just something to be aware ofAmber A.

55This place was awesome!!! It's so beautiful with the pond and the path around it. Lots of swings, hammocks, trees and bushes to explore. It was so wholesome to see our dog Indie run around this huge place carefree and with so much joy. She's very reactive with dogs and she's not usually off leash anywhere other than home. This was special and we'll be back for sure. Olivia P.

55I can not say thank you enough.. the owner went over and above today. I got out to push the button to enter the facility and I shut my car door and my dog stepped on the lock button, locking me out of my car with it running and my dog inside. The people on the premises were kind enough to help me as I was completely frantic. The owner showed up and got a long piece of metal and opened my door. He even allowed me to stay over my time limit so we could enjoy the property. My dog absolutely loved playing in the pond. She loved running around and we had a blast. We will definitely be back. I can not say enough great things about this place.
Thank you again to the beautiful lady that helped me and let me make calls from her phone. You are an angel. MaDonna S.

55This was such a lovely time!! Host was quickly responsive the entire time. Not only did my dogs have a blast, so did me and my boyfriend. The property is essentially a walking trail around a large pond, so we were able to walk around the pond a few times, swing on the swing, and let our dogs run and sniff their hearts out! Thank you!Katrina P.

55Big, beautiful pond to explore. You can hear dogs barking, and someone was out and about working, so keep that in mind if you have a reactive dog. Lots of room to roam Jenny B.

55What a great hour spent at Taylor’s Pond. Our Labrador loved crashing through the brush and jumping in the water while my daughter’s Corgi tried to herd her back to the path. We were super glad there was a hose by the parking spot to get the bulk of the pond muck off the dogs before putting them into the car. We will definitely visit again!Liz S.

FAQ about our Poway dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
How can I find dog fields in Poway?
There are 42 dog fields in the Poway area. The most popular dog field is Taylor pond. You can browse all of our dog fields here.
How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Poway area range from $4.0 and $4.0. The least expensive dog field is Small Yard in West Seattle. The most expensive dog field is Small Yard in West Seattle. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
