55I am honored to be Mollys first Sniffspot guest!! Her property is stunning with plenty of space to run and a pond for your pups to dip into.
Molly does have 3 dogs, all well behaved and didn’t bother to come up to us. She even offered to have them tethered.
A neighbors dog did sneak into my time there but I told Molly that I was okay with the company as my dog does just fine with others.
I do know they’re working on a fence right now to separate the properties :)Shay S.

Molly's 21 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Rockdale | Sniffspot
55Molly was a wonderful host and her property is truly amazing. My dog had a fantastic time swimming in the creek and getting all his sniffs out. He’s a would-be ranch dog living in the city, so he had a fantastic time. I made the mistake of not checking the reviews when I booked Molly’s Sniffspot, so I did not realize that she has two dogs that are free to roam on the property. My dog is aggressive with other dogs, so I was worried about an incident. Thankfully Molly responded promptly to my concerns and assured me that her dogs would not bother us, but that she would try to tether them before we arrived. Unfortunately she was unable to do so before we came, but it turned out not to be an issue at all. Her property was big enough that my dog and I were able to spend two hours near the creek and my dog never noticed her dogs, who stayed near their RV. We will definitely be coming again, and I highly recommend her Sniffspot. Avery S.

55The yard was large and clean. They left a huge bowl of water out (there was a hose too) and some toys. There were dogs in the yards on either side of Christopher’s yard that did bark throughout our time there, so if you have a dog that’s reactive to others, that may be a challenge. Otherwise, it was a great Sniffspot!Catie B.

55We LOVE this yard! There’s tons of space for our dog to explore and 2 nice shaded seating areas for us to relax (and even a hammock!). The backyard was well lit for after dark play dates and the gate was private and easy to find. They left a water bowl, treats, poop bags and even water for us. We loved our visit so much. We will be back often and recommend this spot to anyone looking!Adeline B.

55Love this yard! Was a great size yard with a very secure fence. My dog had a great time running and sniffing around and playing with the toys provided! We will be back for sure! There were neighbor dogs outside and barking almost the entire time so maybe not a great choice if you have a highly reactive dog, but my dog was not bothered and had a great time. Sydney H.

55This is a lovely spot! As others have said, you can hear the neighbor dogs barking, but they are little dogs and have a fence of their own so while they can be heard, they can’t be seen or even get close enough to the fence to scratch on it/be smelled/etc. Other than that, the neighborhood is beautifully quiet, the yard was spacious, and toys were included.
We will most definitely be returning! Shelby B.

55We had such an incredible experience at Christopher’s fenced in large private yard! I was genuinely blown away by how much fun our visit was! There was plenty of open space for my two high energy pups to run free to their heart’s content. We felt very safe and at peace here, with only the next door neighbors small dog barking frequently. There were tons of interesting and varying areas for my dogs to excitedly smell and explore as well. We immediately felt at home, due to the charming tranquil set up for our visit when we arrived. Our host also stocked the patio area with plenty of awesome toys that your fur babies will have a blast playing with! My pups were absolutely ecstatic for such an amazing opportunity to have a fantastic adventure together, and were beyond happily exhausted when we left. We are so grateful that you hosted us today Christopher, thank you again :)Cassandra R.

FAQ about our Rockdale 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 Rockdale area are 5 stars.
