55Such a beautiful gem. My dogs absolutely loved running all up and down through the woods and in the streams. The trails were beautifully maintained and benches all throughout for sitting to listen to the stream and admire the beautiful landscape. The host, Stephanie was so nice and welcoming and I truly enjoyed learning about their fabulous place. Lots of farm animals wandering around in the pasture area and the dogs did great around them. I loved the beautiful turkey walking around and fanning his feathers!
Such a wonderful place, I felt like I was a friend when I left and the dogs got so much enjoyment they slept the whole way home!Nicole L.

55Such a great visit! Virgil loved the creeks and trails. We had a great opportunity to practice recall. Lots of great benches to sit on throughout the property. We wore waterproof boots which were great for all the creeks. We can’t wait to come back!! Athena J.

55We had such a great time - running up and down the trails, checking out the rivers and playing with sticks. There was lots to explore. The host was great, met us and walked us around the property. We’ll definitely be back. The sniffspot is not fully fenced, but we had no problem keeping our pup inside the boundaries. Emily H.

55John is the most gracious host we have ever experienced! He was so sweet and respectful to our anxious dog who normally doesn’t like other people, but didn’t bark at him once. The property is AMAZING! We live an hour away and fully plan on coming here every free weekend we’ve got. John gave us a full tour and explained all of the different areas and boundaries. It is plenty fenced enough that you won’t even notice it’s only partially- I know we didn’t. Our dog has never been more exhausted, he had the best time ever and so did we. Thank you so much and we can’t wait to come back soon!Lex F.

55This is an amazing spot! The host was extremely nice and showed us around the park before leaving us to explore. Our dogs loved all the new smells and places to run. Our big dog loved the river and creeks that ran through the park (make sure to bring towels! Our came in handy today!) We also really loved the farm animals that were in the pasture. Our barker had to show off her voice when the cows came to say hello and our other one was so interested in the goats that walked us to the car. We recommend this place to anyone and we will be back very soon! Amanda M.

55I gifted this visit to a couple of newcomers to the PNW, and they absolutely loved it! John gave them a tour of the property, and they raved about the beautiful setting. Their dog arrived home exhausted, and that’s the whole point, right?Courtney S.

55Best Sniff Spot ever!! I’m so grateful to this family for sharing their space with all the nervous and reactive pups out there!! The area is huge with a big open space for frisbee or chuck it, surrounded by lots of interesting trails and streams that my dog LOVED to explore. John introduced us to the farm animals, including the two beautiful Scottish Highland Cows, which was such a great learning experience for my dog. I will definitely be back!!jenny r.

55We always come here when we have a group of 5 or more dogs. A bit of everything including socializing your pup to other domesticated animals near and far. Love the place and the hosts so accommodating. Highly recommend this spot. Kate T.

55This place is ideal for a real romp in the countryside. Varied terrain from a field for fetch, a riverside to explore, and plenty of trails, varying in difficulty. Best of all, so much space for our rugged pup to roam, and come back to me. Excellent for his recall work! We went on a rainy day because our guy needs the exercise no matter the weather. There is a nice covered porch with chairs to take a break. I imagine it's paradise in the warmer seasons. Tracy J.

FAQ about our Puyallup dog hiking trails
Are dog hiking trails safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than a city or county park. With a Sniffspot off-leash area 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. Our hiking trails tend to be outside the city, which lends to more privacy, but it is also important to follow typical hiking safety precautions, such as potentially having trail maps.
How do I know if a dog hiking trail works for my dog?
Sniffspot provides the tools to find the ideal spot. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing 6 feet tall and distractions, to find a dog park with trails that works for your dog. You can also filter by size if you are looking for a certain acre park, an expansive off-leash dog park. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog hiking trails. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog hiking trails where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Since you are looking for trails, make sure to check photos to see if it the spot has flat trails or gnarly trails. You can also browse by specific amenities, if you are looking for a view or a beach, for instance, or other activities or fun features. You can check whether the spot has off or on street parking, the regular park hours, whether it has paved trails or a modern restroom.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog hiking trail?
In order to hike the trails, we require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot hiking trail at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
How much do Sniffspot hiking trails cost?
Dog hiking trails in the Puyallup area range from $5.0 and $20.0. The least expensive dog hiking trail is Pleasant Places. The most expensive dog hiking trail is Evergreen Oasis. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
