55The pool was amazing at this spot! Very clean. There is plenty of shade from the trees- which my dog loved to chase squirrels up. Both my pups had a great time running around. Tired them out which was perfect to work on training them to not be afraid of the water. Morgan B.

55This is such a great place! Everything is clean and well maintained. Large yard for playing ball with your pup. Riley loved being able to run around but was not a fan of the pool (it was his first time so maybe we'll work on that). I would definitely recommend checking this place out with your pups.Devan K.

55This is a wonderful little spot! The pool was very nice even tho none of my dogs would fully go in haha, I think next time I’ll go in with them but they certainly loved the big yard to run and play in! I really enjoyed the hammock where I could sit and watch the pups all run and have fun. We will definitely be back to this spot!Isabelle M.

55It was absolutely wonderful, everything is perfect. They left us doggie bags and hand sanitizer and the pool is perfect. I brought my own swim jacket for my dog but they had one available for medium to small dogs. They were so kind and accommodating. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would!Evan B.

55Very nice and quiet fenced in yard. Plenty of room for a dog to run and explore. Also places to sit and relax. The pool is a nice feature that I wish we had taken advantage of in the heat of the summer.Jen F.

55Such an amazing spot for our pups. They romped and played and wore themselves out. The yard was a perfect size for them to play chase and cool off. Such a great spot. Some dogs were heard in the distance at neighborhood homes but did not affect my most reactive dog. Check it out!!! Jennifer W.

55First time visiting and will definitely return! My dogs had a great time running around the spotless yard and hanging out near the stairs of the pool. Great property/neighborhood and grounds. Parking was easy and fenced area was secure. Highly recommend! Pauline W.

55This was a great spot to balance the needs of my chocolate lab and two Boston terriers. Easy to access, secure, and clean. My lab loved jumping in the pool and had an easy time getting out using the stairs (as did the BT that jumped in a few times). It was mostly shaded, so I didn't worry at all about my BTs overheating while they ran around despite it being over 80°. Jillian H.

55Wow what a wonderful sniffspot! Thank you so much for sharing your little oasis with us. Luna and Scout had a blast!! Nice touches with the poop garbage can, I usually end up bringing poop bags home after our visits 😷 so a poop friendly can is appreciated as well as the bowl for water. Pool cover is very safe and secure, each dog did walk on it once before they got the hint lol. Fencing 100% secure no worries about escape artists. Thank you so much we will be back often.

FAQ about our Manchester dog water parks
Are dog water 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 guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines. Some great ways to stay safe around water with your dog include learning canine CPR and keep an eye on your dog at all times to ensure they are not distressed. You can learn more about safety around water here.
How can I find the best dog water parks in Manchester?
How do I know if a dog water park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our fully fenced dog water parks. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog water parks where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to see what kind of water features are offered to make sure it works for your dog. If your dog is not a strong swimmer, then perhaps choose a dog water park with tamer water features rather than a river or beach, for instance. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions, and of course, checking water park hours.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot water park?
We require that all dogs 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. Additionally, we recommend following our water safety guidelines.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot water 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 dog water park party, each Sniffspot water park has their own rules regarding special events. Many water parks allow doggie birthday parties, training 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.
What are the coolest doggie water features available?
Sniffspot dog water parks can have a variety of features, everything from swimming pools to rivers to beaches to hoses and kiddie pools. If you are dreaming of a curtain of water, water tunnels, a ball pit pool, water slide ball pits, splash pools or other cool features, you can definitely find amazing features at Sniffspot dog water parks. Each water park is different, so check the details of the park to find the incredible dog water park of your dreams.
