55The yard was very well kept and has lot of shade to relax in or a sunny area to get a tan! Lots of treats/toys provided. The hammock is especially nice in the heat. Indy was very kind and we can’t wait to come back! Logan R.

55Was a great visit! There are plenty of balls and toys for the fur kids to play with. Fresh water for the kids and cold bottles of water for us humans. Also, they had 3 different kind of treats for the kids! The pool was a hit with my girl she loves the water! We will definitely be back. BEVERLY B.

55Another great visit! My orinal time the weather was not permitting us to go. Indy messaged me and said it was OK to come at a later time! Absolutely awesome hospitality! My girl thinks she can get everything out of the toy box like she does at home! I just love this place, and apparently, Athena feels at home here. BEVERLY B.

55My boy Raph absolutely LOVED your place! He had so much fun! We don’t have a backyard so it was nice to be able to take him someplace safe and fun! He loved the little pool and all the toys! He seemed to REALLY love that toy box, sorry he jumped inside! 🤦🏼♀️ Thanks for sharing your space, we will definitely be back! Morgan K.

55I enjoyed our time there. I took 2 of my 3 dogs, one being quite anxious and reactive. The fully surrounding privacy fence was great and slowed my nervous dog to calm down quicker by not being visually upset by neighboring people or dogs. The yard had wonderful shade trees which made it tolerable on a warmer day. Especially during the evening I would expect there to be more neighbor noise from people and dogs but it worked out for us.Christie R.

55Great visit! It was our first time using this service, and our dog has to get used being in another's yard, but Findy Yard was a perfect place to take our pup and we will certainly return.
Thanks!James X.

55Beautiful large back yard, large enough for several good chuck it throws. We really enjoyed the beautiful huge oak trees as well. We have a dog reactive pup and the host took care to ensure their pups were out of sight and they didn’t make a peep while we were there. Thank you so much!Nicole A.

55This was probably the best sniff spot we have been to yet. There are lots of trees for shade on such a hot day. And our dog had a great time running around in the big yard. Rachel R.

55It was a quiet neighborhood and the spot was perfect. There was water for humans and our furry companions. A basket filled with toys to play with and a pool. It was a hot day and our girls are a bit anxious so they sniffed around the yard for 5 min and then stood/laid by us. They didn’t want to play. Since it was our first time at a SniffSpot it was a learning experience. We only stayed for 15 minutes but felt like it was a success!Dee P.

55We will be back for sure. Great space for training or just chillin and letting the floofs sniff, explore and play. A few neighborhood dogs with one or two barks, but it wasn't a problem at all. Bug spray and water bowl a bonus!! We will definitely be back!Jenny W.

55We had a great visit this morning! There were some dogs barking on the other side of the fence, but Finn was unbothered by them. He was much more interested in sniffing every blade of grass. Thank you for letting us borrow your yard!Kelly M.

55My dog loved the visit. A nice family backyard. Well kept with one edge of the yard a bit more "overgrown" that my dog enjoyed exploring. Good fencing, plenty of shade trees. Our 30 min. visit was not long enough, will do an hour next time. Suggest bringing your own balls/toys.Jeffery G.

FAQ about our Lansing small dog parks
Are small 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 are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Lansing?
There are 80 small dog parks in the Lansing area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
