55Romeo, our Great Dane, thoroughly enjoyed his time at Heather’s Sniff Spot. He had plenty of room to run, some shade to chill, and Heather left him some water to cool down. Liz B.

55I was a little confused about the gate at first, but after I realized what Heather meant, it was perfect. My dog loved playing in the backyard and enjoyed the shady spots. He did grab a few sticks, so I hope that’s okay. Uzi also enjoyed showing off his fetching skills for the kids watching next door. Jen S.

55Heather’s SniffSpot was exactly what our dog needed. Safe with plenty of room to run and sniff. Since our dog is dog-reactive, it was important to us that she couldn’t see any other dogs, and we didn’t.
We’ll definitely be back!C B.

55Charlie enjoyed his time at Heather's Sniffspot! The yard is smaller than some others I've visited but affords plenty of space for exploring and sniffing. Charlie is not a ball guy, but for dogs who like to fetch, this would be a great area for them to do so. As the description notes, there are neighbors nearby, but the fence is solid enough and tall enough to avoid this being an issue. Heather was a very welcoming host and provided helpful information to be sure our visit went well ... thank you! Happy to find a Sniffspot location that is so close to my house!Donna S.

55This spot was so, so great! It was our first time using Sniffspot and we loved it! It’s a quiet neighborhood, you can’t see much from the road (I have a stranger reactive dog and she got a little interested in one couple walking by but the road is far enough away that she wasn’t overly concerned). There were LOTS of toys and things to explore, my pup really loved it (and so did I!) it was truly lovely. Rachel M.

We love this spot! We’ve rented it multiple times. The yard is so big and not muddy at all. It is fully fenced. The dogs have plenty of space to run and let out zoomies. The hosts always have water out and there is plenty of seating. There is even a bin of dog toys and balls. This spot is a dream!Alexis R.

55We love this Sniff Spot and have rented it many times now. My dogs get so excited when we walk up the drive way - they know they are going to have such a fun time. The yard is very large and fully fenced. It’s not muddy. Our dogs love running around and chasing each other. There is even a bin of dog toys and tennis balls to choose from. We always have such a fun time and the hosts are awesome!

55We always have such a fun time at this beautiful Sniffspot! Julie left us a gotcha-day package a while back, well it has finally been 1 year since we’ve rescued our pup so we dressed him up for a little party using her package! Picture of the result :) thank you Julie!Camille O.

FAQ about our West Lawn 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 West Lawn 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 284 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 32 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.
