Lawns, Gardens, Views, Pool, in San Rafael

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Hi, We are closed at the moment due to illness Please note there is a large pile of soil/dirt in the driveway area. There is still plenty of room to park. Pups of all sizes enjoy this spot. Half acre property, fully fenced and gated, good privacy, lawn, pool, lounge chairs, table and chairs, flower gardens, redwood trees, olive trees, persimmon trees, meditation garden, hummingbirds, and even a red fire hydrant. Optional pool access for people can be purchased as an Extra, by the hour and by the person. The pool is unheated except by the sun/air. We love all dogs and welcome dogs of all shapes and sizes and hair types to visit; however we can only offer pool access for non-shedding pups, as long hair and fur was unfortunately causing damage to the pool equipment; If you are booking for more than one non-shedding dog swimming or for longer than an hour, please message us with info about your dog(s) and we will create an extra for you for the number of dogs you have swimming. Most visitors find the lawn size ample for running around and throwing a ball a bit, but if you are looking for a field to launch a tennis ball as far as you possibly can with a Chuck-it, the yard is not really the right size and shape for that, sorry! Hours right now are 7:00am to 7:30pm. If you are booking prior to 8:30am, please book no later than 9:00pm the night before, so that we see the booking before we go to bed. Thanks, and we look forward to your visit!

Quiet garden sanctuary in the city.

Fully Fenced
1 acre

A lot of vegetation and places to sit down, meditate, read a book, study, or have a picnic. Your pup will love to run and play in our one-acre garden. Picking fruit or vegetable etc. is off the limit. Drinking water for animals is provided in various containers throughout the property. Please do not turn on or use any water equipment on our property - we had some serious problems in the past because of this. Please clean up after your dog’s “business” - smile. That’s a serious and mandatory request. Poop bags are available in the plastic box with the other dog gear, but please bring your own backup supply just in case and do not leave the poop bags behind. BROWN garbage can is in the front of the house by the street for your convenience. Thank you! Woof woof! 🌸 Note: in the rainy season we might not change the water for dogs because it’s senseless. Please arrive always with your own supply of water - rain or shine - and if it’s raining you might like to wear rain boots as well. Have fun!

Fully Fenced, Peaceful, Beautiful Dog Park

Fully Fenced
2 acres

A beautiful fenced-in 3+ acre parcel with hills, a few trees, areas with short and tall grass. Dogs absolutely love it here. Occasionally we’ll see wild turkeys and a few deer (and a gopher or squirrel here and there) but otherwise it is a dog roaming paradise. Easy to pull in and park on the gravel area. I have dog bowls, a few toys, 3 pooper scoopers, emergency poop bags, and a couple of washing stations. Cell reception is reasonably good here.

The Gulch Pool

Fully Fenced

Welcome to our dog pool! Yup, that’s right, we designed this pool specifically for dogs!!!! We have 3 large benches that accommodate dogs of all sizes (some benches are more shallow/deeper than others), plus a step that goes all the way around the pool for dogs to walk on. In addition to that, we have a step in the deep end that makes it easy for the dogs to get in and out of the pool! We also have bubblers inside of the pool (the dogs go crazy over these) and then outside of the pool we have fountains that shoot into the pool! This is literally a dream pool for dogs and dog owners! The pool is surrounded by artificial turf and a gorgeous view! We can’t wait for you to check out our pool! Please note, this spot is right next to our home, we too have dogs and they can be seen through our windows! If you would like to book more than 2 hours, please send us a message.

Joy Ridge Sanctuary with over 2 Acres of Redwoods and Gardens

Fully Fenced
2 acres

Welcome to our private oasis (we will not be home when you visit!) with over 2 fully fenced acres of redwoods and gardens in Occidental with a park-like setting. Dogs and their families can journey the meandering paths and trails to explore gardens, redwoods, seasonal fruit trees (you are welcome to try it) and endless relaxing areas with hammocks, benches, tables/chairs and even a covered outdoor bed. There is an indoor rustic lounge with sofa and table/chairs where we provide complimentary coffee/tea, water and treats for humans and dogs, dog toys/wipes/towels/blankets/waste bags, disposable rain ponchos for people and a covered outdoor patio with a sitting area to enjoy the redwoods. The bathroom is accessible from the main deck and has a sign on the door. Our redwoods sanctuary is perfect for celebrations, gatherings and private recharging in nature for dogs and their families. Only 15 min drive to dog friendly beaches, 10 min to 'Grove of Old Trees' (dog friendly) and to downtown in Occidental which is known for its shops, galleries and a famous dog friendly Howard Station Cafe. It's also an 8 min drive to 'St. Teresa of Avila Church' in Bodega where Alfred Hitchcock's film 'The Birds' was filmed. If you are visiting with little humans, please enjoy our outdoor toddler playground, swing set, an outdoor mud kitchen with kids' picnic table and a large sandbox with toys. There are also toys and books for kids in the lounge (under the coffee/tea bar table). If you have any questions, please reach out anytime so we can make your visit a wonderful experience! NOTE: If you see a block on the calendar and it's the only time you can visit, please feel free to reach out as we can move the blocks around on some days. HOT WEATHER INFORMATION Our sanctuary is high up along the forested ridge, which exposes it to fog and cooler offshore breezes. You can visit anytime of the day - the property is over 80% shaded and much cooler in hot weather due to a heavy redwood canopy that serves as a natural air conditioner. The temperature is 6-10F lower (depending on the fog and time of the day) than the weather forecast for Occidental. We also added a 'Splash Zone' under a 1000+ year old redwood tree for pups to enjoy.

55Great to have a large, safe and clean space available for my husky and his friends to romp and play! Having toys and water bowls on site makes for an easy visit. Thanks!

55This is a wonderful spot to allow your dog to run and play. There are lots of toys and even some agility equipment to keep your dog engaged. We discovered an honor bar that offered drinks and snacks while you are there. The yard was clean and safe and easy to find. We will definitely bring our pup back!

55My first time using sniff spot. Loved Nancy’s place. So clean and lots of fun toys for my dog. Will come back again. Great spot for my reactive dog. She completely ignored the cows in the other field. It’s a safe spot too

55Love Pepper Road and so does Bianca. No distractions close by, which is super important for my reactive girl. Nancy is so thoughtful -- she has dog toys, chairs & tables, a covered space in case of rain, towels if needed for you dog and blankets to wrap up in bc sometimes it's cold and windy in Petaluma even when the sun is shining. So kind 😊

55I brought Merrill, my Doberman rescue of two months, to this park on the recommendation of my trainer. He never learned to properly play with other dogs and at 95 pounds, that's a problem in the typical dog park. So while we continue to work on his playing etiquette, this is a great alternative. He loved it! He ran and sniffed to his hearts content and the end of the hour, he was so exhausted he almost couldnt get in my SUV. It's such a lot space nestled in beautiful, peaceful rolling hills. I will be bringing him back here...regularly.

Our pups were so tired from their hour of exercise and a tired pup is a happy pup! We drive all the way from Guerneville just to use this space. 5 stars all around. Thank you for hosting pups!

55Right now after a very rainy winter the grass is so nice and lush! They've mowed nicely and it's a nice space. There are some good touches here I haven't seen at some other local sniffspots like blankets and towels and a snackbar with inexpensive snacks and drinks, if you're interested. There are also poop bags everywhere in case your leash roll runs out. Space is clean and they obviously care about making it welcoming. The basket of toys was great - Simon has never been into frisbee before but suddenly was a disc dog with this one! There were some dogs playing in the yard nearby, which wasn't an issue for my dog but just something to keep in mind if you use sniffspots because your dog is reactive. There are also cattle you can hear but not really see nearby.

There were some dogs playing in the yard nearby, which wasn't an issue for my dog but just something to keep in mind if you use sniffspots because your dog is reactive. There are also cattle you can hear but not really see nearby.

55Everything was neat, the grass had been mowed and edged. I don’t worry about taking my dog there because there are few if any gopher holes. However, the previous visitors had not picked up two of their dogs poop.  Come on people, would you want to have to deal with that?

Frequently asked questions about Hercules small dog parks

What amenities do Hercules small dog parks typically include?

Hercules small dog parks feature amenities designed for appropriately-sized exercise: compact fenced areas, small-scale obstacles, and low-barrier entry gates, secure fencing options, water stations, waste disposal, and often extras like toys, shade structures, or parking. Unlike public parks with generic setups, Hercules hosts customize their spaces. Browse 168 listings to compare—from bare essentials to luxury amenities perfect for your dog's needs.

How much does it cost to use Hercules small dog parks?

Sniffspot runs on a membership model with monthly and annual plans that include credits toward Hercules dog park bookings. Members get discounted rates at participating Hercules spots, and new users can start with a 7-day free trial. There are no surprise booking fee. Your credits cover the reservation. Browse Hercules small dog parks listings to see individual spot pricing, and check your membership dashboard to see how many credits you have available.

How clean are private small dog parks in Hercules compared to public parks?

Significantly cleaner. Public dog parks in Hercules see dozens of dogs daily with sporadic city maintenance. Private small dog parks have dedicated hosts who maintain their own spaces—cleanliness directly affects their reviews and bookings. Many Hercules hosts provide fresh poop bags, sanitized water stations, and regular grounds cleaning. With only one booking at a time, waste accumulation is minimal.

Can I book Hercules small dog parks on short notice?

Usually yes! Many Hercules small dog parks offer same-day or next-day availability with instant booking. Unlike public parks that might be crowded unpredictably, Hercules private small dog parks let you reserve exactly when needed: early morning before work, midday breaks, evening exercise. Real-time availability shows on each listing—perfect for last-minute training or when routines get disrupted.

What's the best time to visit small dog parks in Hercules?

Any time works since bookings are private! Unlike public dog parks in Hercules that are crowded during peak hours (mornings, evenings, weekends), you don't worry about timing. Book when it fits YOUR schedule—midday when it's quiet, dawn for cool weather, late evening for convenience. Many Hercules small dog parks have lighting for after-dark visits. This flexibility is perfect for shift workers or dogs with special needs.

Do Hercules small dog parks allow multiple dogs?

Yes! Most Hercules small dog parks welcome multiple dogs from the same household. Some hosts set limits (check listings), but generally you can bring your whole pack. This is perfect for multi-dog households in Hercules where some dogs are selective—they can play together privately without outside interference. Great for sibling bonding or families with mixed ages/temperaments.

Can I use Hercules small dog parks for special events?

Many Hercules small dog parks welcome doggy birthday parties, training workshops, breed meetups, or group playdates. Private bookings mean your event won't be interrupted. Coordinate with Hercules hosts about capacity, amenities (parking, shade, water), and any restrictions. Some even provide party extras. Check individual Hercules small dog park listings for event policies.

How do Hercules small dog parks accommodate dogs with special needs?

Hercules small dog parks are excellent for special needs dogs because you can filter for specific requirements: flat terrain for mobility issues, secure fencing for blind/deaf dogs, quiet locations for anxious dogs, small spaces for seniors, or maximum privacy for reactive dogs. Read reviews from other Hercules special-needs dog owners, and contact hosts with questions. The private setting means you can adapt the experience to your dog's unique requirements.
