55My dog and I both had a fantastic time exploring this beautiful property! There were trails all around, and we felt like we had the world to ourselves. Carrie kindly kept her dog Juno indoors so that my dog (who is very worried when other dogs are around) would feel comfortable roaming at his leisure. What a treat it was- we’ll def be back! Nancy C.

55Beautiful place for a dog and people to roam. A lot to explore. Different landscapes to enjoy- Some woods, some field, I think there is a stream too but I didn't see it . There's even a cool abandoned building . The drive up is very scenic too, so that was nice. Very friendly & welcoming owners. I will definitely be back! Mariah S.

55Beautiful property! Oakley had a blast. Directions were easy to follow. Make sure to wear long pants and shoes that can get muddy. The trail is well marked and easy to navigate. Just a heads up if you do the long trail it took us about an hour and was pretty steep. Oakley loved it here and we will definitely be back!!!!Alexis K.

55There is so much space! I have a Catahoula and German Shorthaired Pointer, and even though they're both about 10 years old, they still have so much energy! Juno's Dog Park was the perfect place for them to run around, smell all the smells, and explore. Carrie was also super nice and helped me feel welcome. I will absolutely come again and recommend this place to all my dog parent friends! Thank you for having us!Lauren L.

55This spot was perfect! I took my pup Abby and her 2 best friends to celebrate her 2nd birthday. The trails were great and the pups had so much fun romping off leash through forests and fields, a nicely varied terrain. We also appreciated some of the fun structures found in the woods. We will definitely be back! Alicia K.

55Great experience! Wide variety of terrain on the property, from fields to woods and from hilly and flat areas. My dog is reactive towards people/dogs, and this was the first time I could take him outside without any stress. Dana V.

55Lovely spot. The owner was kind enough to provide fresh water. Highly recommend! There are wooded trails to explore and a long gravel road for those who need more stable footing. This was my first time using this service and I was really impressed. Deven G.

55Our dog Jesse had so much fun at Juno’s sniff spot! She led the way on the trails and left no lead un-sniffed. She also had a great time getting the ball thrown for her in the more open field. We will definitely be back!! Madison F.

FAQ about our Charlottesville dog water parks
Are dog water parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Charlottesville?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs 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. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
