Our pups had so much fun at Kelly’s spot! They loved the well-cared for lawn, dog toys, and large kiddie pool. Kelly is a very communicative and kind host. Thank you Kelly for sharing your spot!

This property is so well-maintained, quiet and has nice touches like a pup pool, toys, comfortable seating, easy parking, even bug spray. We had a great first visit and without a doubt will be back!

Kara K.

June 2024

This is our new favorite spot! Kelly thought of everything. There was a kiddie pool (which my one dog loved!), water bowl with fresh water, and a bin full of toys. The space is very well maintained. The fence is secure. One of my pups is tiny (13 lbs) and she can slip through small spaces, so secure fencing is #1 for us. The yard is large with lots of room to run and has trees for shading. My girls had a blast!

Welcoming and comfortable for pups and people alike. The care put into the space is very clear. We loved our time here and will definitely be back!

My dog loved this spot - enough level ground for him to really stretch his legs. The signs are clear and it's thoughtfully stocked - although other than water we didn't need anything.

It was my first time taking my dogs here, and it was worth it!!! It's clean and spacious. They had toys and water bowls for my dogs. Both my dogs had an amazing time!!!! I highly recommend bringing your dogs here. I will be coming back and referring this place for my friends.

My dogs loved all the space they could run around in and they were able to cool off in the pool afterward!

Penelope W.

July 2024

Absolutely beautiful and immaculate! Kelly space is flat, pristine, and so beautifully maintained. She has thought of everything: toys, a clean splash pool, towels, bug spray. We had a great time and will definitely be back.

Nadja H.

July 2024

Pancake had a great time exploring and chasing her ball. The spot was clearly marked and easy to find. The fence was secure all around. There were chairs and lots of shade to enjoy. This spot is well maintained, had a waste bin by the entrance, had a bin of toys (we liked the Chuckit Launcher), and while it was not used this time, had a clean kiddie pool to cool off in. This spot was relatively quiet and no people or dogs were seen. We will definitely be returning!

We love Kelly's property! Clean, spacious, well-maintained, kiddy pool for pup, toys, quiet...what's NOT to love! Thanks for another great visit.

FAQ about our Sylva 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.
