55This is a safe and quiet yard located conveniently for those in the City and near West End. The yard is very secure with a new 6’ privacy fence. A welcome note, places to sit, and a bottle of water greeted me. 😊. For my pups there was water, toys, poop bags, and plenty to sniff. My pups also did some running and zooming. Especially nice on this humid morning was the shade provided by the trees. Joy M.

55A mini forest in a quiet neighborhood! Grass was a bit long so I'd wear good shoes, but it had a good open space, as well as a small area with lots of brush/trees and paths. I would highly recommend, and plan to return! Rebecca N.

55This place is beautiful and so much fun for the dogs to explore. Big enough yard to run but also a cool smaller wooded area just big enough for them to get “lost” in the wild 😜. Will be back again. It was great!Marissa M.

55Everything was fantastic! Lots of trees for the dogs to run around and sniff in. Really appreciated the water, toys, and dog bags they left out. The walkway across the drainage ditch to enter the gate facing the street looked a little unsafe and I didnt see the secondary gate until we got in the yard. Otherwise no issues!Rachel J.

55We arrived on very short notice, the owner didn’t know we were coming until we were there! That said, there was a box of toys on the back porch, plenty of water, fun area to explore, and Phoebe was able to play with Figgy at my request for a few minutes! (Phoebe is highly social.) We had a good time and we’ll be back Friday!Laura L.

55My pups had the best time & didn’t want to leave! The yard has so much room to run around and small paths for them to explore. Leah was so nice and answered any questions I had right away. She provided toys and fresh water for the pups and mosquito repellent and fresh figs for me:) I couldn’t have asked for a better set up, we hope to make this a weekly outing for the fur babies! I can’t recommend Figgy’s yard enough!Cynthia W.

55Juhi’s backyard was absolutely perfect for us! She has a fresh water bowl out for Larry and filled the pool up for him. The yard was open and clean and perfect for zoomies. There’s a basket of toys for pups, a table & umbrella for humans, and Juhi had a welcome note and a bottle of cold water waiting for us. We live in walking distance and will definitely be back! Overall great experience. Emilie K.

FAQ about our Goochland 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.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Goochland area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 113 fully fenced dog parks in the area.
