55This spot was absolutely awesome! Lots of green grass and secure fencing for our large dog. We did not see anyone while we were there, but you will be able to see the neighbors if they are out in their yards. We will be back for sure! Brooke E.

55My dog had a blast checking everything out! Definitely wore himself out. However if your dog doesn’t like other dogs this may not be the best spot for you, as the neighbor dog likes to say hi through the fence! My boy didn’t mind though and was running up and down the fence line with him! Lily C.

55Very large, clean yard in a quiet neighborhood. There are a few spots in the fencing where my small dog (Jack Russell sized) could have easily escaped so we kept an eye on her. Bigger dogs would be totally fine. As others have mentioned, the neighbors do have a cute little shiba who will come to the fence. My dog loved running alongside him, but reactive dogs would not do well here. Sarah B.

55Caroline’s place is the perfect size for my 89 lbs pooch.
I appreciated all the shade the backyard trees offered. I was not concerned with my dog escaping from out the yard. The neighbor’s dog was friendly and playful . Thank you again for having a clean yard to play in.Papa G.

55By far this is one of our favorite spots. The yard is so well maintained, it is fully fenced which is a plus, the neighbor's dogsare great excercise for our Goldens, running up and down the fence line. We will visit again of course, as this is our second visit there. It is a little distance for us, but worth the drive.Mary P.

55Great contact! The fence was fairly closed, however there was a small opening at the front that if you had a small dog they’d be able to get into. Lots of room for the 4 legged creatures to run! Their neighbor they share a fence with did have her 2 dogs out, but was kind when our reactive lab was having a hard time relaxing, and ended up bringing them in. Would definitely stop again!Anna S.

55My foster pup, Miss Wiggles, loved playing fetch in Caroline’s yard! This was the perfect way to get out some of her pent up energy from the shelter. The fence was secure and the yard was clean.
We loved our experience and would definitely book again. However there are two things that are worth noting to make sure it’s the right fit for your pup. The neighbors Shiba Inus, did not seem to like my girl and were trying to nip at her through the wire portion of the fence. My girl wasn’t interested in them and walked away so it wasn’t an issue. Their owner also brought them in after a couple minutes of them barking.
We also went immediately after a rain, so naturally the yard had several muddy areas. My girl LOVES a good mud puddle romp so this worked out well for us. Just something to keep in mind if you plan to visit after rain. Renee B.

55Very quiet and serene place. Just beautiful! My dog had a blast running all over the place. She wanted to engage with the neighbor dogs and I didn’t find them a problem. My dog did run across their back porch several times with her muddy paws and I apologize for thatCynthia L.

FAQ about our Carmel 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 Carmel 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 119 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 9 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.
