55Last night I said to the girls (the dogs- but we call them the girls) what they wanted to do today and going to Little Monsters playground to run was the unanimous answer. Our FAVORITE sniff spot. I just hope it doesn’t become TOO popular. “Can we go back tomorrow Mom”???? : )Suzanne H.

55Beautifully maintained yard with plenty of toys and activities! My dog had a great time and we loved the hammock for the humans :)
There was a dog in the rear neighboring yard that barked the first few minutes but the dog wasn’t right up against the fence and the yard was large enough to have my dog go to the opposite end. The dog stopped / went inside quickly. Just something to note. Amy T.

55Beautiful yard! I personally enjoyed all of the shade and seating available! Lots of signage clearly posted, plenty of supplies. We went early and I was surprised that the water was filled and cold for my dog to drink. My dog even loved seeing a few deer in the neighborhood as we left Toneah B.

55It's been months since we last visited this Sniffspot, and that's only because the weather has been too hot. Zoey had a great time running and prancing around. Everything was the usual, well-maintained way! Thanks for a great experience! Jill B.

55Clean, tidy, great accessories and supplies. My two dogs had a great time and I enjoyed watching them! My one dog is an escape artist - she carefully inspected the perimeter and couldn’t find a way out, the yard is very secure. Will recommend and be back!Liz D.

55Rumble and Zoe had a great time! There was plenty of open space to run around for Zoe! And Rumble enjoyed playing fetch! Our favorite part was the fresh water in a cooler out back! I knew going in they had water (I thought just a hose), but the cool water really made a difference! Super easy to come and go! We will definitely be back here! Thank you so much for providing a great space for us to enjoy! As a human companion I particularly enjoyed the hammock! Even Rumble enjoyed it with me! I will be sure to take some pictures next time.Lauren O.

FAQ about our Sykesville 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Sykesville 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 335 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 60 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.
