55Our dog loves sniffing around this entire place. He’s not a huge player, but can be reactive and has terrible recall, so a fenced in yard is required for off-leash time. I know winter is different and probably comes with non-frequent users, but I wish that some type of seating was available as it is listed on the “Amenities” list and would’ve made our colder visit more comfortable rather than sitting on the concrete stairs. But we bundled up ahead of time and we’re able to stay for our complete time. Kate N.

55There’s quite a bit of traffic noise but that’s pretty much to be expected for the location. Great spot to play fetch or just let your dog run off some energy! Angela A.

55I have 2 tired out pups after our visit! The yard was nice, clean and secure. There was enough room for my older dog to play fetch while my younger one chased his flirt pole. We didn't see anyone or any dogs but even if one did walk by the bushes block most of the front and the side fence has blockers weaved thru it also. Like I said it was secure and clean also, unless you have a really tiny dog or a jumper I think they'll be fine. I also let the owner know one of my pups is reactive to people and she was very accommodating. Will visit again!!Rachel C.

55Great space for my two dogs. Tons of room for them to get their zoomies out. No issues with the fence. It had recently rained so I anticipated a muddy mess, but the yard is in great condition. Owner even left towels out for the us to use on the pups. They also put out a bowl of water which was nice. We brought our own toys but there were plenty of others provided. Nicole B.

55The gated parking space was perfect; so convenient to be able to get my dogs in & out of the car in a safe area. My dogs had a great time romping around in the grass and sunshine. The privacy fence kept my dogs focused on fun instead of distractions. Jessica D.

55This was my first time using sniffspot and this place was great! She had a long hose, my dog is obsessed with water and we played with that, she has extra toys and a water bowl! Only thing is I kept my tiny (7lbs) on a long line because he could fit between the front fences but that didn't hinder my experience at all (i used a 40ft leash)! thanks for a great first experience i definitely will be coming back!ponce m.

55First time taking my dog -- 3.5 year old Border Collie Mix -- to a SniffSpot + Lure Course. Entire yard is fenced in, which was great to be able to immediately let her off leash to sniff around. Lure course was super entertaining for her and myself; she couldn't get enough. Host was super friendly and accommodating. I mentioned prior to our reservation that my dog can be reactive to other dogs, so he kept his dog inside while we were borrowing the yard. We chatted throughout the hour we booked. He offered to make coffee for us (I had brought my own). Overall, super pleased with this spot and will definitely be back in the summertime once the ground thaws a bit more. Michelle P.

55It was our first time using Sniffspot & it was a great experience. I brought over 4 dogs who had plenty of room to chase, doggo wrestle & explore. The yard was secure, safe & well maintained. Our gracious host came out to say hi & bring our pack a squeaky toy which, inevitably was destroyed by Bella. We will definitely be back, thank you!Lori R.

55My first time using Sniffspot and it was wonderful 😊 I parked right along the side of the yard and we went in. The hosts were super friendly and asked if the dogs could have a squeaky ball and I said yes, but my dogs were too busy getting all of the new sniffs in. It’s really a great spot to let your dogs run and completely fenced. I plan on going back often.Mandy L.

55My friend and I wanted our dogs to meet in a spot that was new to us both. I have a very playful dog, and she has two high-energy dogs. This space was perfect. We were able to easily supervise the dogs, they were able to run around and get their energy out, and the host was very gracious! Overall a great experience. Lisa D.

55So happy with our first Sniffspot! The yard is big and great for digging and sniffing. Easy parking and easy entrance to spot. Love this community for dogs that need something away from other animals. Kellianne W.

55My dog loved it! I did feel bad because he saw an outside cat in the yard next door and he spent quite some time barking at it and trying to find a secret entrance into the neighboring yard (there isn't one), but hopefully that was okay. The ball provided was a big hit, as were the sticks. The wood chips also prevented him from getting muddy like he would at the dog park on a day with melting snow like today. We'll definitely be back. Amanda S.

FAQ about our Milwaukee 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. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Milwaukee 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 71 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 12 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.
