55We had a great time at this site, and didn't have any problems with stickers in his fur after. As other reviewers have said, the sniffspot area is not fenced off from the comings and goings from the house, so if the host is leaving or has guests outside, there are no extra barriers. This was not a problem for us, but for reactive dogs, this is a consideration. My guy did give a bark or two at the host when he saw them and then called off (they were super nice about it). In any case, we found it clean , with plenty of room to run, and the pool was great for him! Tyra M.

55Fun spot in town with lots of room for pups to sniff and run. The kiddie pool could use a cleaning, but otherwise perfect spot in town. Will be back for sure. Tyler C.

55This spot was lovely! Tons of space for my pup to run around and explore :) It was clean and super cute. Fun to see the pet ducks (safely fenced in), and my pup enjoyed running through the sprinklers to cool off a bit. Taylor B.

55Our dog had a great time running, roaming and sniffing around. She had plenty of space to play and it was to have a few options for seating too. The ducks are very cute as well โบ๏ธChristianne G.

55Great spot, big enough for a lot of play, right in the middle of Camas/Vancouver areas. Dogs had a great time and both were obsessed with hiding in the little play house.John F.

55Pups had a great time! Awesome yard, lots of room to run, and super close to everything! Wet and a little muddy after a few days of rain - pups were FILTHY and got a bath immediately after - but that's the PNW for ya! Ducks were also super cute to see, and one of our dogs was very captivated by them! Thanks for sharing your spot!Amanda G.

55Our dogs had a great time. The property was beautiful and well kept. Fencing was more than adequate. The dogs found plenty to explore. We have one fairly reactive dog and had no problems with outside distractions. We would definitely visit again. Michelle O.

55Great spot! We brought or well trained dog and a new-to-us dog today as our very first sniff spot and it was a success. Lots of room to run and sniff with different areas. There were toys and water available and a trash bin for poop bags. Kristina B.

55A large and lovely yard for the dogs to run in, with plenty of trees and hidden spots for them to sniff. I had no trouble walking around with them either.
We even got all 3 to go up and over the ramp, so a success all around! Would be lovely to sit at the table and have a coffee next time while I let them romp:). Caron P.

55This was a great spot! Miranda was very communicative. The area was clean and well maintained with lots of room for Kali to run around. The field had a nice incline to it to give it some diversity in the landscape. We didnโt get to play too much this time as Kali was busy taking in all the smells! She definitely enjoyed the sniffing. We will keep this on our list as a top spots to visit in the future.JENNIFER Q.

55We loved this location! There were a lot of little spaces to explore, the area is hilly adding a little extra challenge for the dogs. Thereโs some agility equipment that was fun to use and a little play cabin that we got some cute pictures with. They provide toys, water, and plenty of places to sit. Very convenient location, too!Jennifer M.

55I visited this spot on a wet day, with two very active Goldens, the ground is very well drained, and the dogs got a bit wet, but not muddy.
They do have a couple of ducks in a pen behind the house, The pen is surrounded by a solid wall, and they were very quiet. My dogs did not notice them, although my younger dog did sniff around the pen, I was easily able to distract him.
The entire yard is fenced, all around the house. I had some concerns about my dogs having access to the front door of the house, but the yard is big enough that once we walked away from the house there was plenty of room to chase a ball, and they were completely distracted.

FAQ about our Vancouver dog agility parks
Are dog agility parks safe?
While public off-leash 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 city parks. Contrary to a typical dog park, 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 safe place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. As always, ensuring you use park dog agility equipment safely is also key to an enjoyable experience.
How do I know if a dog agility park works for my dog?
Owners commonly wonder about whether a park works for their dog. Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a fenced dog agility park that works for your dog. You can also filter on size to find a larger park or neighborhood parks. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog agility parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog agility parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can read the description of the spot to see the details of the set up, such as whether there is commercial grade park equipment, and other amenities, such as park benches. Browse photos to get a sense for park design. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking agility park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot agility park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Treat all park equipment with respect and care.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot agility park 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 agility parks cost?
Dog agility parks in the Vancouver area range from $10.0 and $30.0. The least expensive dog agility park is Harlen's Three Mountain View Dog Park. The most expensive dog agility park is Miss Emily's between Banks and North Plains. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
