Sniffspot - Private Dog Parks

Sniffspot Inc.

About this app

Sniffspot is the #1 app to rent safe and private dog parks. Bring pure joy to your dog’s face by letting them run free without a worry in a Sniffspot dog park.

With tens of thousands of dog parks across the US and around the world, Sniffspot makes off leash play easy for dog guardians and their canine companions. Sniffspot dog parks are hosted by locals on private land enabling easy access to all kinds of locations - fenced dog parks, indoor dog parks, dog water parks, dog beaches, small dog parks, hiking trails for dogs, yards and backyards, dog fields, dog agility parks and more.

We believe a more dog-friendly world is a better world. Dogs evolved and were bred in a world where they could run free in fields and forests. Modern society doesn't carve spaces out for our canine companions and, as a result, dogs in the modern world are having all kinds of problems, like obesity, reactivity, and anxiety. We are coming together to provide safe spaces that allow dogs to let their instincts rise back to the top, to go wild and free, and to just be dogs again. Healing is a beautiful thing to witness.

Existing off leash options for dog owners in cities can be lacking to say the least. Even if someone is lucky enough to have a public dog park, there is no control over which dogs are there or enforcement of clean up requirements. And cities are already rife with owners letting dogs off leash in public parks that can cause a nuisance and be a danger for the dogs themselves. Many dog owners resort to visiting dog parks early in the morning or going to unused tennis courts. With Sniffspot people can take their dog to a beautiful location that is only available for them and let their dog just be a dog.

Ratings and reviews

Used to just pay in dollars to book places, now you have to have a subscription that dispenses credits that you have to use. You get 20 credits a month, which isn't at all helpful when the yard you want to book requires 8 credits instead of just allowing you to spend $8. Much more complicated and inconvenient as heck. I just want a place I can regularly take my reactive dog to so that she can run and play 2x a week, and to pay for that when I can use it. This credit subscription model is a joke.

Go back to the old way! I want to pay an hourly money fee for a place, I should not have to sign up for a subscription to get 'credits' to use. You are losing so much business doing this. I refuse to sign up the subscription way! This app was supposed to allow me to find places for my dog to free roam without the hassle of running into other dogs/people. Stick up for the pet community and go back to the amazing app that you were!

bait and switched - can't book without a membership. at first when I opened the app, I skipped the "sniffpass" popup and was browsing locations with a dollar hourly rate. then it glitched and everything is only showing "credits" and requiring a subscription to book. the search function is glitchy and "sort by distance" doesn't work. when I refresh the map view, I get different results every time.
