55We had THE BEST time. All three dogs left very tired/happy. The host is so wonderful and sweet!
The endless loops of trails and a big open space to just chill in. I felt 100% safe leaving all of them of their leashes - very secure/safe fencing. The dogs did not stop exploring! Tori R.

55This was my dog and I’s favorite Sniffspot so far. It had water features (to drink and dip your toes in), lots of seating, shade, forested and field areas, adorable memorials of Max. My dog didn’t even know where to start so we decided to ask to stay an extra half hour. He was running like crazy and barking and enjoying the shade. By the end of it, he was panting like a dummy and had a coat full of debris from his adventure. Would recommend to anyone in the area. The owners are very pleasant and answer any questions/doubts you may have. Will definitely be back soon. Diana L.

55Absolutely amazing! This place is breathtaking! I have a pit mix named Happy and he’s not really allowed in most places due to his breed so to be able to give him a private experience was a blessing. Him and his sister Zoey had an absolute blast! I’m grateful to have been able to give two apartment dogs this amazing experience! We will definitely be coming back again!Sora b.

55The dogs had a great time at Max's. We had an Aussie, soft coat Wheaton terrier and a Yorkie poo with us. Great space. Plenty of water. Well kept. He even had a hose, shampoo and other brushes. Kim S.

55This is a safe spot where I can train my dog. I would really like to brush up on his recall command along with his stay command. Ideally I would love to start training him to walk/run next to me off leash and this is the perfect spot for it! I will start to incorporate this little by little during his playtime. We love how safe we feel at Max’s Playground! Thank you so much for sharing your spot with us!Callie and Papa G.

55Our "city" dogs love this beautiful place. They ran and smelled and ran some more. Delbert has made trails that are very nice to walk through giving the pups plenty of off leash freedom. He has placed several watering spots to keep them hydrated. He even has a bathing station to clean them up before leaving. Gloria and Oliver said they want to take more sniffaris here. We will definitely make visiting Max's Playground a regular routine.Vivian W.

55We had a great time! We brought our 3 pups and they all had a ton of fun exploring the property. The hosts went above and beyond to provide things we might need during our visit including towels, brushes, dog shampoo, poop buckets, and plenty of clean water. They were welcoming from start to finish and we all had an enriching night! We will definitely be back! Brittany T.

55My beagle mix Luna really enjoys to walk at her pace and sniff everything, and this was the perfect spot to do it. It also gives me a peace of mind knowing it’s all fenced in and I can’t loose her if she catches a scent and runs off. Bianca J.

55Nice trails. Very well kept. 2 full waters for the dogs to get a drink. We enjoyed walking the trails and spend some time sitting on the swings and just letting the dogs run and explore. The host greeted us when we got there and was very nice and gave a little run down of the place! Would recommend.Tabitha D.

55First off, I would like to say the owner is so nice and very welcoming to her property. This spot is absolutely gorgeous. There is so many different trails to walk and explore. Daisy had a blast being able to go off leash and explore. I felt very comfortable letting her off her leash knowing that the property is securely fenced in. I definitely recommend this spot. We will definitely be back!Kylie F.

55This was the perfect location for my dogs to just be dogs - and I loved it as much as they did! They could run off without me, and I didn't have to worry if I could find them or if they'd get out. The area is clean, secure, and beautiful. We'll definitely be back!Katie M.

55My dog isn’t used to being able to run around wherever he wants. This was a perfect spot for him to get his energy out in a safe place! He was completely tuckered out by the end of his visit. What makes it better is that it is pretty cheap and the money collected goes to animal shelters. We will definitely be coming back! Amber V.

FAQ about our Arcadia dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends 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. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
