55A truly lovely yard, and so well-maintained! Hermes and I had a fantastic time exploring the wooded paths, dry creek bed, and orchard space 😍 Hermes said no thank you to the pool but it was clear and cold, and he appreciated multiple water bowls around the yard. Ed was very hospitable and the bandana and treats were icing on the cake!Wendy L.

55Ed and Brigette go above and beyond. They have all the supplies and more! Toys, bowls, water, poop bags, chairs, drinks for the customers, and more! He even gave us a gift bag with goodies and handkerchiefs for our dogs. The yard is very open with a nice trail to walk on. We are definitely coming back! Rosalani F.

55Love Riley's dog park! A lot of room for zoomies, play and sniffing. The hosts go that extra mile providing water and treats for the dogs, a splash pool (which my dog was in to cool down from all the running) and more. The area is secure so no need to worry about our dogs escaping. We could watch them play and enjoy. I have recommended this spot to my friends. Thank you for opening up your area. We all had a great time! Sue and RubySue M.

55Such a cool spot! They were so sweet and gave the pups bandanas and treats. There were LOTS of sniffy spots, plenty of space for fetch, and a relaxing trail walk. Alyssa S.

55I am greatful this sniffspot exists. My dog has such energy, loves people, but not adjusted to other dogs yet. Rileys allows a safe space to run my dog. Thank you to Ed and Bridgett! Cynthia B.

55This place is amazing! The spot was beautiful and peaceful so it was enjoyable for the humans as well. My dogs absolutely LOVED it! There is so much to explore, I think they'll need a handful of visits before they even sniff everything. The hosts were great! They left water and bowls for the pups, as well as a doggie goodie bags with treats and cute bandanas for the dogs! The bin of toys had more than enough to keep them busy when they weren't off exploring. I think we've found our spot :) Will definitely be back!Evangeline H.

55If I could give more ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I would! Ed greeted me when I arrived and explained the property which was super helpful. The yard is securely fenced and the extra amenities were awesome (toys, waste bags, sanitizer to name a few). I will definitely be a regular! Kristen D.

55Very nice place. I have a "puppy" he loves people but not wild about other dogs He's a blue heeler, so he needs a lot of exercise and work. He got it at Rileys. It is safe. They clearly love dogs...there was water, a pool, walkways, and much more I felt safe too. Thank you to them. I will return soon. Cynthia B.

FAQ about our Rochester small dog parks
Are small 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 are much safer than public dog parks.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.

If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
