55We had the BEST time at Dani’s today! Beautiful property/yard, very clean, & private. Dani checked in before & after our visit, and also provided so many amenities (sunscreen, sunglasses, toys, water for Howie, etc.). Howie is a water boy that loves to swim, and having a place that I can swim with him, too, is so great! We will definitely be back!Megan M.

55This was a great spot for my dog to unwind! He actually was tired at the end of our stay. Dennis was very accommodating and provided treats and water and plastic bags, but more importantly he gave us privacy and space which my dog loved. Sarahi G.

55The fence is great! Water was fresh and cold so that was very nice, and there was a tray of treats and a bowl of tennis balls - much appreciated. Yard was clean and free of any traces of other dogs! There are some spots where I had to worry about my dog getting under the house near the stairs, so I had to be careful there, but I noticed a baby gate nearby so I could probably have used that if it was a problem - I just chose to watch my dog carefully and pull her back when needed. Owner was there when I arrived and left and spoke to me both times, so if you prefer to come and go privately, you may want to message ahead of time to arrange that. Julie L.

55This was my first experience booking with Sniffspot and it was great! Dennis was super accommodating and brought out toys, a water bowl, cold water for me and my dog, and extra poop bags. The yard is huge and well kept! It was super secure as well. We left a little earlier than we booked for but that was only because the mosquitoes were bad, but other than that we had a great time! We will be back for sure!Koda K.

55Dennis’ sniffspot was the best we’ve ever visited! My dog is big, strong and very athletic and normally I worry about her jumping fences but Dennis’ fence was high and sturdy and I was able to feel at ease knowing she wouldn’t escape! The yard was big and allowed her to get all of her energy out, and the space was very clean and well managed. There was plenty of water and a dog bowl and treats too! Couldn’t recommend highly enough. We’ll be back again for sure! Felicity J.

55Cute little area. Perfect for our 3 pitbulls. We can't take them to dog parks because people get scared of their breed or other dogs want to fight. They do not put up with an outside dog messing with a family member so it gets ugly. My crew had a great time and are all worn out. Thanks 😊 Gil C.

55When I visited Gus' Garden Sophia was outside and was very welcoming. My current foster dog really needed a place to run and play off leash without any other dogs around. Gus' Garden was perfect! I checked all the fencing and it was secure all the way around the yard to the ground. There was no way even my small dog could escape - though she looked carefully, too. Thanks, Sophia!!!Veronica S.

55Very nice secluded spot. Nothing there to trigger dog angst. The toys, hammock and swing were appreciated. Hose bib is outside the fenced in area. My dogs were worried enough to oversee my out of yard venture. If you have a heavy chewing dog, avoid the lily-of-the-valley. Loved this place, will use again. Shady and comfortable for the doggies. The stupidest crap triggers them but nothing here bothered them. It was very nice.April and Dan P.

FAQ about our Cincinnati small dog parks
Are small 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 are much safer than public dog parks.

How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends.

If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.

Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties 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. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
