55We love it here!
55My Sasha and Davy enjoyed the property, the owners take care of you and the fur kiddos 10/10 will go again, 1st place I've stayed now has me sold on sniffspot
55They have an amazing set up with cute photo ops, plenty of places to sit, beverages for the owner and dog, and they split up the toys so there are fresh clean toys and a used toy bin. The owners were so friendly and loved getting to meet my dog. I will definitely be back!
55Very clean and well cared for. My dogs had fun!
55Nice clean open yard, signs pointing you in the right direction. A nice little welcome sign with my name on it , and snacks / drinks for me and my buddy Milo. Thank you for hosting us, plan on coming back soon !
55Very good spot fences are high, to keep the yard beautiful. Lots of places to sit. Lots of things for the pup to do. Found some great toys while we were there that we definitely had to buy for her now. And so many great photo opportunities.
55Amazing space!! We will be back :)
55We had such a fantastic visit! The hosts have provided all the extra touches - for humans and doggos! Snacks, water, drinks, toys, poop pickup station! Sebastian loved running around & just relaxing on the patio. What a wonderful spot to share with others in memory of Bailey❤️ We will be back!

Description

Welcome to our fully secured pup paradise! Our property has no resident dogs or other animals, making it the ultimate stress-free sanctuary. We feature a 6-foot solid wooden privacy fence enclosing a spacious, nearly quarter-acre grass yard—perfect for reactive, anxious, or high-energy dogs who need room to sprint without outside distractions. Human guests can relax comfortably under our shaded gazebo while dogs explore. We provide everything you need for a perfect visit, including fresh water, clean toys, and a fully stocked waste station (pooper scooper, bags, and dedicated trash bin). Come enjoy a completely private, safe playdate!" To keep all our human and furry guests safe and relaxed, our spot is strictly reserved for one family/household of dogs at a time. We do not allow 'meet-ups' or joint playdates with dogs who don’t already live together. This ensures every pup gets a calm, low-stress environment to sniff and play in peace. We would be honored to share our yard with you and your furry friend. We recently lost our Dog, Bailey Boots who loved to sunbathe and was an anxious reactive dog so this was her safe space. We hope this is the same for you and yours. Note: There are neighbor dogs who go out 2x a day for no longer than 10 min to the right side of our yard. We are in close contact with them and let them know whenever we have Sniffspot guests so that they can walk their dogs on a leash rather than letting them out loose in their backyard. We also have 2 indoor cats but they can’t be seen if you are in the yard. Thank you for helping us keep this a safe space for everyone!

Hi, I'm Nathan! I'm a lifelong dog lover and proud pet parent to Bailey who recently passed away. Bailey loved running around, chasing squirrels and just basking in the sun in the backyard. I decided to host on Sniffspot to share our private yard and give other dogs a safe, stress-free place to play without interruptions in honor of Bailey. I look forward to hosting you and your pups!

Howling Pines 1 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park in Pembroke/Concord

Fully Fenced
1 acre

Welcome to Howling Pines Sniffspot, a private, peaceful place designed with your dog’s best day in mind. We’re open 7 days a week 6a - 9p with lights to illuminate late night and early morning visits. Located just 5 minutes from Target in Concord, NH, Howling Pines offers approximately 1 fully fenced acre of mixed terrain for running, sniffing, exploring, playing, or simply enjoying some off-leash freedom. The entire Sniffspot is enclosed with 5-foot-tall, 14-gauge welded livestock wire fencing with approximately 2" x 4" openings, providing a secure boundary while maintaining the natural, open feel of the property. Please see photos of fencing included in the listing. Our Sniffspot sits on a private 6.5-acre property, set back more than 350 feet from a quiet, dead-end residential street. The space combines a grassy backyard with cleared, tree-covered woods, giving dogs plenty of room to explore different sights, smells, and terrain. Approximately 2/3 of the Sniffspot is wooded, making it especially fun for dogs who love to sniff, wander, and investigate. Designed for Safe, Easy Arrivals: We know that getting in and out safely can be one of the most stressful parts of visiting a new place, especially with reactive, nervous, excited, or escape-prone dogs. That’s why the entrance to Howling Pines features a double-gated airlock located directly beside your designated parking area, allowing you to move from your vehicle into the Sniffspot quickly and securely. Stay & Play After Dark and Early Morning Hours: Early sunset or late sunrise shouldn't stop you or your pups from having fun. The yard is lit for evening and early morning visits, making it easier for you and your dog to continue enjoying the space after the sun goes down, especially during our shorter New England fall and winter days. All lights are solar powered and motion activated. During Your Visit, You’ll Find: - Covered seating area for humans to relax while the dogs play - Cleared wooded areas for sniffing and exploring - Outdoor lighting for evening and early morning visits - Washable dog toys, including Chuckits, tug toys, balls, and more - Fresh water for dogs and humans - Pet waste stations and poop bags throughout the space - Clean towels available for muddy paws, wet dogs, and humans - Antibacterial wipes and hand sanitizer for easy cleanup - Complimentary human snacks - Designated parking directly beside the airlock entrance Built by Dog People, for Dog People We share our home with two Husky/Malamute mixes, so we are very familiar with high-energy, adventurous, large-breed dogs and the importance of having a safe place where they can truly stretch their legs. We designed Howling Pines to provide more than just physical exercise. The mix of woods, grass, smells, toys, and open space gives dogs opportunities for mental enrichment and natural exploration, too. Whether your dog wants to sprint, sniff every tree, chase a ball, explore the woods, or simply enjoy being outside without the distractions of a traditional dog park, we hope Howling Pines becomes one of their favorite places. Come sniff, explore, and howl at the pines!

Bear Brook Canine Camp

Fully Fenced

Fully fenced in approximately two acres. We now have lighting for nighttime use. Approximately five times around the property perimeter equals a mile. We have chuck-it throws and balls, many toys, sand/digging areas, pools and agility equipment in a large, fenced area for you and your dog to romp around. Main entrance to the yard can be found by entering the second driveway and parking in the designated parking area in front of the solar barn. We do not plow that driveway in the winter as it’s just gravel. So, feel free to park at the bottom of my driveway and walk to the SS gate if you’re not comfortable using the SS driveway in the winter. We ask that you please adhere to our 24 hour notice when changing or canceling a reservation. We are always fully booked on weekends and most weekdays too. A 24 hour notice allows enough time for someone else to fill a newly open reservation. Feel free to reach out via text 603-682-7216 with any questions or concerns. Enjoy! Melodie

Sarah's Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Manchester

Welcome to our Sniffspot—where dogs can truly be dogs! We chose this home for its large, private yard and created a safe, fun space for pups to run, play, and sniff to their heart’s content. The front of the yard features a 6-foot privacy fence, while the rest is enclosed with a combination of 6-foot wood, chain link, and heavy-duty wire fencing. It’s fully secure and suitable for both large and small dogs. Your pup will love exploring the variety of scents left behind by local wildlife—birds, squirrels, chipmunks, and the occasional raccoon or fox make for an exciting visit! We hope your dog enjoys it as much as ours does!
