55Really great setup for both humans and pups. Our dogs especially loved the pool. The hosts were lovely and welcoming. Being able to let our dogs out of the car off-leash once inside the gate was really convenient. Sharon K.

55Great space for our furbabies to play in! Completely secure area with a good yard space and a pool to take a dip with your pups. The host has toys to play with and offered a water bowl if we hadn't brought our own. Can't wait to visit again!Julie & Sean G.

55Great yard for the dogs to run and play. Nice landscaping to give the dogs room to run and explore. The pool is shallow enough for us shorter humans to walk around comfortably. The area and pool were both clean, and the host was very kind and hospitable. We plan to go again this summer. Danielle B.

55My dog had the best time at his visit! The pool was very clean as well as its surroundings and my dog spent the whole two hours we booked in and out of the pool chasing two toys they provided!
Definitely less of a hassle than dog parks have been for us. This dog mom loved the peace of mind and unadded stress knowing I could spend my attention on him and not also have to watch out for others and their dogs.100% recommend and 100% worth it. Elena S.

55This was my first time using Sniffspot but won't be the last! My dog and I had a wonderful time enjoying the pool. My dog loves to swim but doesn't get many chances, so she was so happy! The host's instructions were very clear and the yard was fully dog-safe. Wonderful off-leash space!Ashley S.

55Maureen’s space is the perfect place to spend some quality time with your pup! There’s the pool of course, a grassy area for playing and lots of shade and seating. She included thoughtful touches such as drinking water for pups, dog toys, sun screen and bug spray. I couldn’t say enough great things about this spot! Ailsa R.

55This was absolutely a perfect place for our pups to have an unforgettable day!! Maureen and her husband are accommodating beyond expectations. The pool was so pristine, we were almost reluctant to use it! The containment was superior leading to a worry free time for both of our dogs! There were toys at the ready & signage to make everything about our visit easy and a success!! We will be treating our pups to this experience again very soon! Susan D.

55They were understanding, helpful, and nice to talk to! Love that it's a flat-bottom salt pool and it's the perfect size for dogs! They have floats, toys, and a big shady umbrella over comfy lounge seats. The automatic gate is a huge bonus!J H.

55What an amazing spot!! Room for the dogs to run and sniff, plus a pool! Mack had a blast taking a doggy paddle in the pool, sniffing/running around the yard, then repeating the process😂 He’s already worn out and snoozing away just from a short while there. Although we live out of town, this spot is worth traveling back for!!Priscilla D.

FAQ about our Knoxville dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
