Michelle's Private Dog Park In Coral Springs

Our backyard is nestled in a small, quiet, and dog friendly neighborhood. I will provide courtesy towels, bowl of water for the pups, sun screen, and a citronella candle. You are more than welcome to adjust the umbrella and outdoor seating so that you stay under the shade. In the event some of these items are not provided it's due to my husband and I most likely not being home and not having enough time to set up. I do apologize in advanced but I do hope you also provide your own amenities just in case. :) PARKING - In picture 2 is where you will park where the red rectangle is. Directly in front of the house, tires flush against the grass but not on the grass. Please use the gate on the left side if you are facing the house. The Sniffspot sign will be posted. POOL - Our pool is chlorinated and maintained weekly. The shallow end is 3 ft and the deep end is 7 ft. It is not heated. There is a hose near the patio for you to bathe your pup after the pool if you wish. Please provide your own shampoo. Guests are more than welcome to enjoy the pool as well! :) THURSDAYS - Our pool maintenance man comes on Thursdays between the hours of 10am-12pm so please do not book during this window. FLORIDA HEAT - Please be mindful of the temperature. Read this article from the AKC to familiarize yourself with a heat stroke in dogs and what to look for. https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/health/heatstroke-in-dogs/ BLUE TOOTH SPEAKERS - We offer our guests access to our "Tahiti Bluetooth tiki torch" speakers so you can play music while your enjoying your playtime with your pup! Instructions on how to connect are sent via welcome text 2 hours before you arrive. NIGHT - Bookings are open to take at night. It's dimly lit and no lighting on either side of the house so please take that into consideration. I suggest you bring your own flashlight or portable camping lantern. TRAINERS AND DOG WALKERS - My space is available to you as well! TRANSPERANCEY - For safety reasons there will be a camera facing the backyard so yes you will be recorded. :) NO DIGGING - Please do not allow your dogs to dig in the dirt area that boarders the pool or the yard. We are in process of patching up the dirt area. EMERGENCY - In case of an emergency and someone is home please do not hesitate to knock on the door! Help is not guaranteed but we will try to assist in anyway within legal limitations. Coral Springs Emergency Animal Hospital is also the closest clinic.

Sniffs & Sunshine Private Yard

**UPDATES** 05.22.23 - Yard sprayed with Wondercide Outdoor Pest Control (cedar oil base) With rainy season starting, there is a much higher chance of mosquitos - but I will do my best to keep them at bay :) 05.03.23 - Yard mowed 06.02.23 - Yard is a little overgrown due to recent heavy rains **On schedule to be mowed between 6/7-6/11** --- A portion of proceeds from this Spot are donated to Everglades Angels Dog Rescue ---- This back yard was the key selling point when I bought the house. It is an absolutely fantastic space for dogs to run around and let off some steam. There is a picnic table that is mostly in the shade, and chairs if you prefer to be out in the yard with your pup. I will provide poop bags, water, and toys for guests to use. If you would like to bring more than 5 dogs or stay longer than 3 hours - please send me a message & we can work together to figure out scheduling :) I let the yard run a little wild as a natural yard. This means that when the flowers bloom I do get a lot of little visitors like bees, dragonflies, butterflies and grasshoppers. I provide a brush to help keep any longer coats clean before heading home. This also means that during dry spells, Mother Nature can sometimes burn the yard pretty crispy. If you are at all concerned about the status of the yard (grass height, insect activity) please feel free to reach out to me! The yard is treated with Wondercide to keep mosquitos in check & additional DEET-free repellant options are provided.

Huge yard to run and play and owners were really nice. Also they have the cutest dogs (bloodhounds) Lorenzo and Pepita. They have a separate yard behind their yard so it's all private and all fenced in.

Omg this was the best experience ever!! It was our first time using sniff spot and Michelle made it an amazing experience šŸ©µšŸ™šŸ¼ First off I had messaged her to ask a question and she answered really quickly & was so nice and accommodating. We were going there to celebrate Vader’s bday and when we got there she had left out a happy birthday sign & balloons to welcome us🩵 which I wasn’t expecting! It made the visit so great and I was able to get lots of cute pictures and videos🄰🄰 The spot was clean and lots of space to run. She even left out a clean bowl of water 🩵 The pool was great and clean. I will definitely be booking this spot again! thank you so much Michelle for being awesome!! You made Vader’s bday a great one to remember🄰

First time using a Sniffspot, everything was great and my dog had a blast swimming. Felt comfortable knowing the owner was a vet tech so I assumed everything would be well maintained and safe for dogs which it was. Will definitely be back!

Michelle's place was GREAT! We got the access to the patio, which was great because the pups used it (too much lol) to cool off. Michelle had fans on and a citronella candle burning, it was awesome! I was able to bathe my one girl quick after her pool time. It's very neat, clean, and plenty of yard for them to run around! My one pup was a bit anxious because of new surroundings, but I'm hoping that she gets used to it when we go regularly! Thank you to Michelle and we will definitely be back!! ā¤ļøšŸ¶šŸ¾

This spot is great. I've been to at least 5 spots in the area and this is my favorite. Partly because it's 15 minutes from my house and has a pool. Got to meet the hosts and they were super. Yard is spacious and very clean with chairs and tables for your stuff. Ruby loved the pool which in the Florida heat is a life saver. We will be back!

What a wonderful spot. The gate and entire fence is very sturdy and well marked for where to enter. Water for our dog, a citronella candle, bug spray and towels were provided for us humans, too! The yard has a good amount of shade and was very clean! Plenty of room to run around! Though we did not use the pool it looked clean and very enticing.

FAQ about our Margate dog parks

Are dog parks good for dogs?
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. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
