55Such a great spot to bring your dog! It was our pup’s first time going to a pool and he wasn’t so interested. However, he was still so entertained! He loved the birds and running around playing fetch. We were able to swim in the pool and Araceli was so kind! I definitely recommend to anyone needed a place for their pup to run.Monique G.

55The dogs loved it. They mostly spend time in the pond area and by the turkey. There were plenty of amenities like poop scooper, hose to rinse off the dogs, water bowls and even toys. When we got there, Araceli showed us around real quick and was super friendly. Highly recommend this spot. Meera K.

55Another wonderful visit. Maya loves jumping in the pool, Joey likes to wade in the stream, Bonnie spends the hour running and sniffing all the scents. I personally love the hour of relaxation and quietly sitting in the shade. Araceli is the best host leaves out snacks and water.Cheryl W.

55We had another blessed time here! Araceli is a gracious, kind host, truly with a heart to give her guests and dogs the best experience. I noticed a few additions since my last visit - the agility course, and for humans - horseshoes, and the cutest tic-tac-toe table game! My dogs did get a dip in the pool in the arms of my daughter, but still were fraidy cats. I'll keep trying! Thank you Araceli for your 5-Star hospitality, snacks & eggs. You're the Best!!!Dorecca S.

55The space was beautiful! Shade, lots of seating areas. Our three large dogs had such a great time exploring every corner and we felt safe they were properly fenced in. There were lots of places for the pups to sit and relax as well. The pups and us were well taken care of with snacks and drinks. An hour was definitely not enough time. We will most definitely book again. Evelyn H.

My girl was in heaven with the pool! Araceli was a great host. She goes over & above for her guests. Treats for everyone & even fresh eggs to take home!

FAQ about our Desert Hot Springs 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.
