Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Victoria

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

Fully fenced and secure private field located just off West Saanich Road. A great space for dogs to run, explore, and enjoy some off-leash time in a safe environment. The field is spacious, grassy, and fully enclosed, making it ideal for exercise, training, or simply letting your dog stretch their legs. Easy parking is available right at the entrance for convenient access. While the field is visible from the road, there are no visible animals nearby, making it a calm and distraction-free space for most dogs. Neighbourhood note: A Department of National Defence rifle range operates nearby on Wallace Drive, and occasional training sounds may sometimes be heard. Our dogs, farm animals, and most visiting dogs are comfortable with this environment, but very noise-sensitive dogs may find this challenging. IMPORTANT: all prices listed are in USD and guests will be charged in USD

Billie's Private Dog Park In Qualicum Beach

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Hi! I'm Sami Micelli and I help manage my family's micro farm on the West coast in Canada. My frenchie canine bestie was Billie and our Sniffspot is named after her. She passed away in February suddenly and our yard is missing that lovely dog energy! If you are looking for a private fenced yard for dogs on Vancouver Island, you have the perfect place! The yard is green in the spring, summer & fall. It's rainy and grey in the winter but still a charming outdoor spot for dog exercise, play and relaxation. Indoor bookings are currently not available. We look forward to hosting your K9s! Any questions, please drop me a line! Happy to answer them 🐾 ***IMPORTANT message from Sniffspot: all prices listed are in USD and guests will be charged in USD***

For the Love of Paws: Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Coquitlam

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

My name is Sunny, and I'm a full time dog handler and behaviorist/ behavior coach. I've always loved serving and spending quality time with dogs. I offer dog walking/ hiking, home visits, daycare and boarding. I connect with most dogs fairly quickly and would love to help your dog get their daily dosage of physical and mental exercises. This will help remove some of their accumulated energy and keep them in a calm state of mind. I'm available throughout the day for outdoor activities and home visits. For high energy dogs, I offer longer pack walks, nature walks/ hikes, playing fetch or frisbee, and a few more physical and mental exercises. When I'm looking after your beloved pooch for daycare or boarding, you can be rest assured that they'll be treated like my own, and their safety is my first and foremost priority. At home, I strive to maintain a comfortable environment, round the clock fresh water and timely meals (supplied by pet parents), sufficient exercise plus nature walks plus pee and poop 💩 breaks, and baths if needed. My backyard is a private and fully fenced dog park/ agility training center/ sniff spot. As a dog behaviorist, I mostly focus on learning about your dog and then educating the human pack members to create healthy and trusting relationships. I sincerely believe that there's no such thing as a bad dog. And, every such "bad dog" deserves another chance to turn things around and learn to respect and follow their calm and confident humans. I can't say that I'm an expert, but I would love to help. My mission is to meet and help as many dogs and their humans as I possibly can in this lifetime. 🙏🏽🐾

Wind Ridge Farm Field

****IMPORTANT: all prices listed are in USD and guests will be charged in USD so it is around 15 canadian*** Enclosed farm field. Space includes a small wooded area within the fenced area. Bathroom available on site is now located in an outhouse close to where you park your car. Please let us know if it needs cleaning it is checked throughout the day. SMOKE FREE ZONE. Pick up after dogs, garbage bin provided. There is a barn hose if you need water text or call glenn 2508962860. There are a few seniors visiting with mobility issues which is taken into consideration when there is poop left behind. You can always message me and let me know a general area and I can try to run out and pick it up between the next visit. There are some small gaps in the fence, so this is a great spot for large and medium sized dogs. Not a spot recommended for small dogs. Please keep dogs leashed until you are in the designated enclosed area. There is a 30 minute gap between bookings so you dont run into a dog leaving the field. Please check the spot descriptions for more details. Thank you to all our visitors. It's been wonderful seeing so many happy dogs.

Frequently asked questions about Nanaimo dog parks

Why are private dog parks better than public ones in Nanaimo?

Private dog parks in Nanaimo eliminate the major risks of public facilities: unpredictable dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission, and chaotic environments that can overwhelm puppies, seniors, small dogs, or reactive pets. Sniffspot's 58 private Nanaimo locations offer complete privacy, professionally maintained spaces, and flexible scheduling. Whether you have a nervous puppy or a dog-selective adult, private bookings give you control and peace of mind.

How are Nanaimo Sniffspot locations different from public dog parks?

Nanaimo Sniffspots offer: (1) Complete privacy with no other dogs during your booking, (2) Controlled environments without aggressive dogs or chaos, (3) Flexible scheduling based on availability, not rigid park hours, (4) Safety for dogs of all temperaments and ages, (5) Vetted and reviewed locations—93% of visits get 5-star reviews. You get all the benefits of off-leash exercise in Nanaimo without public dog park risks.

Can reactive dogs safely use Nanaimo dog parks?

Yes, and this is exactly what Sniffspot was designed for! Nanaimo has 58 private locations where reactive dogs can exercise off-leash without encountering other animals. Since bookings are completely private with 30-minute buffers between visitors, your reactive dog won't face the triggers that make public dog parks impossible. Many Nanaimo owners of reactive dogs rely on Sniffspot as their only safe exercise option.

What amenities help anxious or reactive dogs in Nanaimo?

Look for Nanaimo locations with "fewer dogs seen/heard" to minimize triggers for reactive dogs. Secure fencing prevents escapes during stress. Quiet, spacious properties reduce anxiety. Some Nanaimo hosts specifically cater to nervous or reactive dogs with extra privacy features. Read reviews to find hosts who understand fearful or reactive dog needs.

How clean are Nanaimo dog parks?

Unlike public dog parks where cleanliness varies wildly, Sniffspot hosts in Nanaimo maintain their own spaces and take pride in providing clean environments. All guests must have vaccinated dogs (or titers) to prevent disease transmission. Many Nanaimo hosts provide poop bags and trash cans. Reviews highlight cleanliness, so you can choose well-maintained locations.

Can I visit Nanaimo dog parks with multiple dogs?

Yes! Most Nanaimo Sniffspots welcome multiple dogs from the same household. Some hosts set limits (like 2-3 dogs maximum), which will be noted on the listing. If you have several dogs—especially if some are reactive toward other dogs—Sniffspot's private bookings let them play together safely without outside interference.

Are Nanaimo dog parks good for senior dogs?

Yes! Nanaimo Sniffspot locations are excellent for senior dogs who need gentle exercise without the stress of public dog parks. Older dogs can explore at their own pace, rest when needed, and avoid being knocked over by rambunctious puppies or large dogs. Look for Nanaimo spots with flat terrain, shaded areas, and smaller sizes if your senior has limited mobility.

How do I find dog parks in Nanaimo for small dogs?

Filter Nanaimo's 58 locations by "small dog friendly" to find spaces specifically suited for toy breeds and small dogs. These tend to be more intimate, with secure fencing that prevents squeezing through gaps. Some Nanaimo hosts have separate small dog areas or cater specifically to petite pups who might get overwhelmed at large public dog parks.
