55We’ll definitely be back to this spacious and well maintained property. We loved the beautiful pasture full of grasses and wildflowers. Trees provided shade in areas and there was plenty of space to play, practice recall, and smell so many things. The water in the cattle trough was clean and fresh and there were toys, poop bags and a receptacle, chairs to sit in, and in the middle of the field there was a picnic table with games for humans. It smelled minty and amazing because of the wild growing pennyroyal. The only downside is that there are some sticky grass seeds and burrs and stuff to pick off the dog now, but she is so tired out that she probably won’t complain! And I didn’t see a single foxtail. The host was friendly and helpful. Thank you!!Melissa G.

55Commenting one more time since the property has been mowed for the season, we’ll probably never go to another sniff spot as long as Janet’s is around! We keep finding ourselves wanting to book more and more time; now they’ve even added new toys, human games and a water trough for the warmer weather. Since being mowed, fun new paths through the trees have been revealed and we just love walking around exploring their pasture and trails! Another huge perk is that even though there’s so much grass, we’ve never come home with a single flea or tick on either of our dogs :)
11/10, thank you so much Janet! Andrea I.

55What a lovely place and very well-taken care of! My dog had lots of room to run and explore to her heart's content. She had a blast. Janet was very welcoming and has toys, clean water, etc. for the dogs. We will definitely be coming back!C.K. M.

55Our dogs had an absolute blast here! Janet welcomed us in the beginning to show us around and then let us and our dogs enjoy by ourselves. Our dogs are crazy about fetch and I loved being able to throw the ball far for them. They aren’t fans of other dogs so we can’t do dog parks. The grass is a bit longer than a lawn you might be used to in the city that’s mowed every week, but that’s to be expected on such a large property and we knew that ahead of time. It wasn’t an issue at all, I’d just recommend long pants. The fence was definitely sufficient for our dogs and the space is so large they wouldn’t try to get away anyways. Janet’s dogs are visible and bark upon arrival but that didn’t even come close to being an issue (our reactive dogs didn’t notice or care). They are far away and in a separate enclosure. Janet provides toys for dogs (though we used our own) and games for humans and a large water trough which is so helpful in the summer. Thank you, Janet, for sharing your property with us. We’ll definitely be back.Samantha W.

55Definitely a 5+ on a 5 scale, clean, beautiful with nicely trimmed grass and mint smelling wildflowers. Seemed safe and roomy, nice treed shady areas and breezes. We walked and fetched and then I enjoyed the picnic table while my dog explored. We’ll be back for certainDeborah B.

55I love how Janet has been consistently making upgrades to her Spot, and those upgrades are in such great interest of the dog visitors AND human visitors! For example, she changed the parking area so dogs & their humans don’t have to walk as far in our recent high temperatures, she has a poop bin in the Sniffspot itself (used to be up by the house), and the water and toys in the Sniffspot itself (also used to be up by the house, which I didn’t really think twice about, but their updated location is so convenient).
She has added a couple of chairs (camp chairs, easy to move if you need to find shade) and a nice quality picnic table with human card games & board games.
OH! This upgrade is stellar, especially for reactive dog owners: A visual barrier along the fence line in which your dog can see her dogs. There is still a chance your dog will see her dogs (from the car to the spot, and by the entrance gate), but they are a decent distance away in the opposite direction of the spot. The visual barrier upgrade is WONDERFUL!
Thank you for always being such an excellent host, Janet.Lauren K.

55Janet’s place was wonderful! My pups are high energy and love a safe place to run and explore, this checked every box. The fencing was adequate and the area is so big my dogs didn’t even know they were contained. Janet greeted me upon arrival and gave me the details which was great. Fresh cold water, chairs, a picnic table with human games, and a bin of toys for the dogs were all available. I will definitely be bringing my dogs back as this was our favorite place we’ve been!Heidi J.

55Clear directions, and Janet is awesome!
The place was clean and had everything you could want for your dogs enjoyment including plenty of water. 7 acres was way more than enough space. It smelled so good out and felt like a private walk in the forest where you don't have to worry AT ALL about your dogs.
It was refreshing and I felt at peace letting my dogs just roam, roll, play, and exlore.
Truly happy to have this gem to escape to. Thank you so much to you and your family Janet for opening your property for our fur friends. 🙂Brandi M.

FAQ about our Cottage Grove 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 Cottage Grove area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 13 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 3 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
Does Cottage Grove have any fully fenced dog parks?
Sniffspot has 13 fully fenced dog parks in or near Cottage Grove. Browse all fully enclosed options.
Are there dog agility courses for rent in Cottage Grove?
Can I rent a field for my dog to run near Cottage Grove?
