55Great place , great fun my Shepherd is in heaven when we visit and Patrick is always so kind !!
55Really lovely space! Has good shade and the host provided water, treats, and toys! Really loved our visit!
55This was my first time using sniff spot. Patrick was very responsive and welcoming. The property is very nice and has lots of open space for dogs to run.
55This was a nice open space with lots of room for the dogs to run. And, lots of area to SNIFF. It was shaded for the dogs as well as the owners with nice covered area to sit. Plenty of water for the dogs. Good experience.
55Fully fenced with many shady trees. Host provided many toys, clean water and pupper snacks! I appreciated the bottled water too. A very cool and good sized turtle was a fun distraction as well!
55My 2 dogs had a wonderful time at Patrick’s place. The yard is huge and fully fenced with lots of trees for shade and room to run. Water & dog toys are included. The tortoise usually stays in separate area when guests are there. Since we have one of our own & the girls are cool with tortoises he got to come out & interact with us. He’s a gentle giant ☺️
55Always a great time!

There’s nothing here your dog can mess up - Fresh water in big bowls, plus toys and treats For you - Covered patio with comfortable seating in the shade - Bottled water for humans - Parking: On the street - Fan for the warmer days - Heater for the colder days Meet Ally the tortoise - Ally is our gentle giant. She lives in her own separately fenced area, so your dog can’t get to her, but most guests enjoy spotting her. If your dog is calm around tortoises, ask me and she may come out to say hello. Good to know - I like to say a quick hello on your first visit, then the yard is yours - April and May are foxtail season. I mow / pull them regularly, but check paws and coats after your visit - After winter rain, expect some mud in spots. Wear shoes you don’t mind getting dirty - Towel provided to wipe your dog down I’m a U.S. Army veteran and lifelong animal lover, and I built this space so dogs can run, explore, and just be dogs.

Redwood Acre Ranch-1 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Orangevale

Fully Fenced
1 acre

Welcome to Redwood Acre Ranch! Here we offer a dog park for your pup on a local farm. Our farm animals are secured behind a fenced area but close enough for your pup’s enrichment. The are is fully fenced, with a pooper scooper, trash can and water bowl. We have 4 resident dogs that love exploring the scents left behind by visiting dogs. Two of them work as herding dogs, one is a paraplegic chihuahua (which really has no farm job) and the last one is a livestock guardian who does take her job very seriously. Fortunately, your booking will give us enough time to have the dogs secured before visitors. The swimming pool is for dog use only. Parking on the street only-please do not park anywhere on the property or driveway. We need that area clear for people coming and going. In addition, spots on the property is reserved for the farm and house members. Thank you 🙏

In the winter there can be a stream of water going through the middle of the pasture after rain. We have a Big water dish for dogs. Small pool for dogs to play in (we fill the pool every day, but can get the extra to have it freshly filled for your pup) Have toys and treats for the pups. Have friends with dogs?! Bring them all and come make a day of it! Feel free to bring a bbq, stereo, or games. Plenty of room for both the pups and the people to hang out and have a good time! We now have a porta potty for guests!! There are sheep in adjacent pasture certain times of the year but there is a 50+ foot buffer zone fenced off to keep sheep away from the fence.

Shadow Fox Farms: Private Farm-Style Recreation Retreat

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Welcome to a private, farm-style retreat designed for dogs and the people who love them. *note - the field is green during spring and winter & dirt during fall and summer. Set on a 0.6 acre of level, fully fenced land, this beautifully maintained space offers room to roam, train, and relax in complete privacy and peace of mind. The property blends open pasture charm with thoughtful luxury, featuring agility equipment and engaging toys for playful enrichment, along with comfortable seating where guests can unwind and take in the peaceful surroundings. A serene pond with a large fountain located outside of the play area anchors the space, filling the air with gentle, calming water sounds that create a unique experience for both dogs and humans. To maintain a peaceful setting for both guests and our neighbors, we host only one reservation at a time. This ensures a calm, low-traffic experience and allows dogs who may not be comfortable in public dog parks to enjoy the space safely. Fresh water is always available, and shaded areas provide relief on warm days. ✨ Peaceful. Private. Elevated. *note: into the late spring/summer months, there can be burs and foxtails in or around the field. We strive to keep them at a minimum but please be aware that these occur as part of the natural landscape. If you have a long haired dog, please be mindful of this and chose a sniff spot that works best for your pet.
