55We had a great time! Host was nice and welcoming, the fenced in backyard was nice and open with plenty of room to play, run around, get the zoomies out and sniff! Miranda W.

55Beautiful property and really nice host! Clean yard with lots of tennis balls.
Unfortunately not the best spot if you have a curious hound that can jump like mine - the bushes alone the fence line are more dense than I thought making it difficult to see/reach my dog. Lots of squirrels and dog barking outside the fence, with spots short enough to jump over.Megan K.

55Ms. Patty is wonderful and the fenced in side of her yard was just enough for my two golden girls to run around. There are two lawn chairs, a hammock, and a little bucket with balls. There is a parking space next to the house, but I parked on the street so that I could enjoy the beautiful long walk up to the the house. There is a magnificent Magnolia tree, might be the biggest one I have ever seen. It also gave my girls an extra little walk to drain their energy. I'm def coming back. Thank you for sharing your yard! 💐 Aida D.

55The space wasn't quite as big as I thought it would be based on the pictures, but it was certainly big enough for our two dobies to have plenty of space to run and play. The space is secluded and quiet, which was great for our reactive pup. It was clean and there were plenty of toys. We found the water hose but couldn't find any bowls.Nicole C.

55This was our first time using sniffspot and it was great! The yard was clean, safe and had plenty of places to sit. We visited around dusk so the mosquitoes were out in full force, but this is the DMV so there’s no avoiding them. We’d definitely book Patty’s yard again. Dawn D.

55This yard was amazing for my doggos! They had so much fun running up and down the hill. It was clearly well maintained and there were plenty of tennis balls for them to sniff out!
I will say there are also lots of birds and squirrels running around and the shorter fence does not limit visibility, so if your dog is prone to chasing these things at any cost, this might not be the spot for you. However, I am really thankful the fence was lined with chicken wire because I knew my dogs were safe while exploring. Great spot!Hannah C.

55Lovely spot! Plenty of cicadas for now 🤣 water bowls were clean and freshly refilled. Did see one prior poop, but picked it up with ours: no biggie. Great assortment of nice sticks and a bowlful of tennis balls. Will definitely come back! PriyanBerto D.

55Still my favorite spot to take my reactive dog. He is people- and dog- reactive; while we didn't hear any dogs while we were there, we did here some people (the yard backs up to a commercial alleyway). Just a warning if your dog is super-sensitive to people talking. Also, remember to wear/bring bug spray! We forgot and I got quite a few bites (but I'm a mosquito magnet, so I should've known better). Thanks for having us over, Odie loves it there!Shannon H.

FAQ about our Temple Hills 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.
