55It was lovely, very well kept and safe place. The toys, the clean bowl of water, shade for the humans… running water (hose). A lovely back yard. The only challenge are the three doggies right next door… they loved to pay attention to Laurence… 🤪Kalliopi L.

55Great big, clean yard with secure fence. Unfortunately, we had to leave early because the dogs next door were barking, growling, and running the fence line, which stressed our reactive girl. (Barking dogs are mentioned in the hazards section.) Our non-reactive boy, however, loved the space to run!Grace G.

55This space is perfect for reactive dogs. The hosts are very accommodating. My dog loves a squeaky ball and I was afraid it would drive them mad. They said they wanted her to enjoy whatever made her happy. Love that! Highly recommend this spot! Abby W.

FAQ about our Elizabeth City 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.
