This place has everything you need for a good play session! Perfect size for the dogs to run around, but small enough that you can keep your eye on them. Plenty of toys and other things to play with.

Urban Oasis was a great getaway for my pup! She loved running up and down the ramp and sniffing all the smells throughout the yard. There was plenty of room to play fetch and even an area where I could give her a nice bath. The area was fully enclosed and safe for any dog that may be reactive around other pups or people. I will definitely be back!

My dogs had so much fun here! The yard is big and perfectly clean. The agility equipment was in good condition and my dogs had a lot of fun using it. There was fresh water and toy available for us too

This was our first Sniffspot experience! I think I picked a great spot to try. The property was very clean, neat and organized. I really appreciated the shade tree, that and the shade tents kept us comfortable. There were quite a few neighbors moving about which was expected on a Saturday afternoon and was great as we need to learn to work through those kinds of distractions, especially off lead. The agility equipment was cool for us to see. Still contemplating if that’s a sport for us to try.

We took our three dogs and they absolutely loved the space and all the amenities that it came with! It was very clean and well maintained. Host was very communicative and made sure the space was clean beforehand. Appreciated the cleanliness and the shaded areas with chairs. Would definitely come back.

10/10 for the host and space. They really provided everything you could want. Toys, water for dogs and humans, obstacles, pools, lots of shade and seating, an easy way to clean up after your dogs. Instructions and communication were clear.
My dogs get a 5/10 :) this was our first Sniffspot and I was hoping they would relax and play a little more but they didn’t really leave my side and stayed on high alert despite the safe space. But they sniffed the whole yard for the first 20 minutes straight which is good for them and I didn’t have to keep my head on a swivel worrying about other dogs so that alone was worth it.

Such a lovely place. It’s a dog’s dream come true. It has everything they could ever want. Ny buys had an amazing time.

This was a great location to visit with my 8 month old lab. New sounds, surface, and new smells! Once he got warmed up, he really enjoyed splashing in the kiddie pool and running through the tunnel. Having shaded areas and water for the humans was an extra nice touch! The area was clean and safe. We plan to visit again! Thank you!

Chico and I had the best time at this sniff spot. It is our first time trying Sniffspot overall and I’m glad I picked this place. Chico has sensitive paw pads so the turf was perfect for him. We live in an apartment so he has never tried a kiddie pool and he loved it ! I’m so happy to have a place where we can come and play.
The place is well equipped.

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.
