55Watching a friend’s young lab who has no recall so dog parks are out for now…she is also awful on leash. this experience was fantastic and will use sniff finder as a training/fun playground. Chelsea’s yard is a good size, had treats, a water bowl, woods and grass and a chuck-it with plenty of balls. There js a large garbage bin to deposit your poop bag near the gate. Was debating if an hour was long enough and it was. Love this experience and so did Sophie.Karen L.

55Such an amazing spot! So comfy and cozy, and I could just relax while my girls had an amazing time! My Willow is an escape artist so it was really nice knowing I could just relax without worrying about her getting through the fence! Very secure and a beautiful area! Will definitely be back :) Kayla D.

55Private, large space to run and sniff! Could hear a dog inside and from another yard but didn't see any, so Annie was comfortable and happy. Fence is very secure and the patio is a great spot to hang out while the pup explores. Plenty of shady spots too!Kate W.

55This place is amazing!! It’s like taking your dogs to a huge park without worrying about others. The fence is tall enough that I didn’t have to worry about my dog who is a jumper. Beautiful, clean space. Darby T.

55Chelsea’s yard is fabulous for dogs that need space to run - even lazy ones like ours. The new entry gate makes it even better! The yard is picked up, there’s water available, and a very nice spot for humans to sit and relax while dogs explore.Karen B.

55This space was perfect for my dog-reactive pup! The property is gorgeous with so much room to run, and I could breathe easy knowing it was fully secured so I could just let him enjoy. The hosts put a lot of thought into making the space as comfortable as possible (for both dogs and their humans!) and we can’t wait to go back. Kaitlyn H.

55This is my dog’s favorite spot. The fence is secure around the entire perimeter of the yard and keeps my reactive dog safe. The yard is always clean and the owners are kind enough to leave plenty of balls to play with, although I always bring my own. The yard is well kept and clean. Thank you for sharing your yard with us.Liina R.

55Really gorgeous space! Great for running off energy and sniffing all the smells. There was just a little bit too much neighborhood dog activity for my reactive pup to fully relax for the whole hour, but it will be a great spot to come back to once we work on building up his threshold some more :)Clarissa N.

FAQ about our Belle Plaine 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.
