55My border collies can’t get inside the gate fast enough when we come back to this beautiful spacious spot. They can be a dog and roam race and be free off leash. Well kept property quiet serene & best place for my best friends. Linda F.

55This was the first Sniffspot we have tried, and it was great!! We don’t always have access to safe off leash areas to work on training and to play, this was perfect. Instructions were easy to follow, the place was easy to find. Nice, secure, fence, well kept grass. Amanda left lots of water, dishes, toys, bags, and a place to dispense poop which kept everything clean. The picnic table and patio table and chairs are nice if I had a friend along. My Sheltie ran and sniffed around every last bit of the space, she absolutely loved it. Heard a couple dogs barking in the distance, but you’re in a neighborhood. Besides that, didn’t see anyone else during the morning while we were there. We will be back!Brenna & Josh K.

55Amanda’s spot is amazing!! She was great at communicating and the directions for entry were easy to follow. Well fenced in, well kept, wide open space and my dogs loved it! There are communal doggy toys to play with but we brought our own. There is a place for your doggy bags to be disposed. This spot was our first booked yard and I feel like we got the jackpot. We will be back. Seriously so grateful for this app. Corrine Y.

55Great time visiting Amanda’s dog park. Very well maintained, safe enclosure. Plenty of room to run for our husky mix. Lots of toys, doggie bags and fresh water were made available. Great communication with Amanda. Will definitely return. Chris C.

55Went back to this lovely place with my two borders. Parking then getting to the fenced pasture is easy. And in close proximity. There’s so much fun waiting — in this spacious land to roam and run. The location is also quiet and peaceful ; so inviting. Immaculate homestead. Linda F.

55There’s nothing like free roaming and off leash. This land is immaculate well kept no tall grasses & spacious. Your dogs can be a dog and be free. The host goes the extra to keep things perfect. Linda F.

55Amanda’s place was amazing! This was our first Sniffspot and thanks to her hospitality, it won’t be the last. The directions were easy to understand and follow and the space is kept in excellent condition. We have a 15 lb dog and a 35 lb dog and there are no spots where they could have gotten out. The fence is high enough for large dogs as well. There was a picnic table and a table with 2 chairs as well as toys, poop bags and trash can, and water with a water bowl. We brought water, but that was very thoughtful to provide it along with all those other items. Thanks for sharing your space with us!! ❤️😁Megan T.

55The boys had such a blast - it was big enough for my Dutch shepherd & Belgian Malinois to run around play fetch. Host also had a water bowl prepared outside, & the tree shaded the area pretty well considering it was a sunny day out. Can’t recommend enough how awesome this yard is. I would only say, that if your dog is high-jumper, the fence may be a little short for them so keep that in mind when taking them out here. My mali jumped taller than the 3ft fence that surrounds the yard!Alexandria K.

55Her yard was clean and spacious. Access was very easy and host was incredibly friendly. If you have a small dog, be mindful of the gaps in the fence. My 3 month old lab pup could have gotten through if it wasn’t for his harness. Deborah N.

55Spot was in a quiet neighborhood and had plenty of room for my girl to sniff, run and play ball. There was a dig pile if your dog likes to dig. She pretty much ignored it. There is a playground area as well. Nuala sniffed there but wasn’t too interested. Great sniff spot in my area and we will be back! Amy C.

FAQ about our Mechanicsburg 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.
Are 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 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Mechanicsburg area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 93 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 7 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
