55We had a fabulous time at Paws Paradise. The yard is huge and secure. There was a pool set up as well as a full water bowl and a box of toys. My dog had a blast picking out toys and running around the yard. We will definitely be back soon!Lorri B.

55Great backyard, was a very nice space for the humans to relax as well. We do have a very energetic dog and he could nearly jump the fence in the back left corner when he saw the other dog in the others yard.Lauren M.

55We booked this Sniffspot for our dog's 2nd birthday. I messaged the host in advance to ask if this would be possible. The host and his family could not have been more helpful or accommodating throughout the planning or the day of the party. It was an absolutely incredible day! Thank you for making our dogs birthday the best day!Lorri B.

55John was responsive and thoughtful as a host, even offering to let me rebook due to muddy conditions. Our two dogs enjoyed Paw's Paradise and it was a bonus that there were toys, fresh water, and a place to sit. It was fully secure and fenced in. Allie C.

55John has a beautiful yard with plenty of room to run and play! We loved that there was also a box of toys and a fresh bowl of water left out. It was spotlessly clean and he even left a towel for us to wipe our pups feet after her playtime 😊Erin W.

55This was our first time using the app. It was so easy to navigate. Paw’s Paradise was our first place to visit, what a lovely space, it was large, safely fenced with toys and training apparatuses available if so desired. Prior to the visit, the owner communicated where to be careful about areas with accumulated ice (-15 degrees). We had very happy pups today and have already booked again for next week!!!Patricia M.

55It's a beautiful yard for my pup to play in. Romeo had so much fun with the toys and was thankful for the space to run & water for when he got parched. Also was very accommodating to have access to a hose to clean off his muddy paws before going home. Will visit again 😊 thank you for hosting!Nicole X.

55Really nice spot! Lots of nice toys and fun agility obstacles. Unfortunately had to leave early as the neighbour’s dog came out and my dog howls if he cant visibly see another dog lol totally on my ridiculous dog and no fault of the owners - otherwise moose had a blast! VERY secure, I have a Houdini beagle and he was perfectly contained by the fence (much to his chagrin) :)Kiara A.

FAQ about our Hamilton 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.
