55This was my first experience, so I cannot compare it to anything else officially SniffSpot.
Ludwig loved this yard. He ran up and down and round, and he took lots of shaded breaks (with the Nashville summer upon us, the incredible trees in the yard provide some nice respite). It was easy to find the home and to enter on my own. Their gate is spectacular, as is their tall private fence. There are a couple of dogs and a small child next door, which I got nervous about because Lu can get really laser-focused on reacting to dogs and people. But the sweet neighbor child told us hello on repeat, and only one neighbor dog barked. We could not really see either of them well. I think it was actually kinda good exposure for him. The yard has gorgeous plants lining the fence. I’m afraid my dog who was quite concerned about next door kept running through the plants. It was lovely to see the names of each plant on the fence. I’m a fan. Ciona R.

55Beautiful yard and always will maintained. Perfect size for the dogs to run around with plenty of shade as well. There is also a water spigot, so you never have to worry about running out of water!Rhonda H.

55Perfect and a beautiful yard! This is what every Sniffspot should aspire to be! The tall wooden fence makes it private and cozy. It was quiet and it doesn’t even feel like you’re so close to the heart of downtown Nashville. It’s perfect for escape artists (very important to me!) and impeccably clean. It was fully fenced with absolutely no gaps whatsoever for small or big dogs. I walked the whole fence. My dog loved it and I also appreciated the chairs we sat in while our dog played. I didn’t see or hear any other dogs/animals or people from the spot. While we didn’t meet the owner, she is friendly and responsive to messages. She even made this cute little sign welcoming us to the Sniffspot! There was a ton of street parking available so parking is not intimidating. No need to worry about parallel parking or finding a spot. I just pulled right up to the house by the curb and the gate was so easy to use. This is a top spot. I love how they only require 1 hours notice here and it’s so quick and easy to book. The rate is reasonable so I’ll be sure to bring back my furry friends. Your dogs will love it! I highly recommend this Sniffspot! ☺️Summer C.

55Absolutely great spot. My dog was so happy to play and relax here. The lawn is natural with little flowers and birds and stuff which makes for great sniffing. You can hear dogs in the neighborhood but can't see them. Can't wait to come back!Elizabeth S.

55This was such a great time for me & my pup! The only thing that’ll add is that there is a sweet senior pup who lives Nextdoor / shares a fence. Only sharing for folks with reactive dogs that it might trigger them. Other than that, we had a wonderful time! Britney P.

55My dog had so much fun! She gets a little nervous around other dogs and felt safe here. I like how it’s also completely fenced as she is a puppy. Huge space for her to run around! Lexy L.

55Kelly’s yard is amazing! Our dogs had so much fun chasing and fetching and got nice and tired. 100/10 recommend. Also, we heard the dog next door bark but my reactive dog was so excited about fetching that he didn’t even notice or react!Ellen R.

55Tinley really loved this backyard! There is the cutest tent with two little chairs that you can sit with someone else and have a cuppa coffee or a cup of tea while your dog sniffs around Tinley is a hound dog and so she loves to explore and I always follow her around to make sure there’s no gap in the fence or anything and there absolutely no issues for us!we look forward to coming back!Christi P.

55Host left out water and a snack for me and bowls of water for my dog. Big space surrounded by chain link fence. The grass was a little high but girl enjoyed walking around and smelling all the smells. Overall a nice spot for some exercise Carol P.

55This spot was the perfect size for our two dogs to roam about in for an hour. There was a nice shady spot under the deck to sit in the two chairs provided and, although the grass was pretty high, our dogs had a great time sniffing and bouncing around in it. Gayle S.

55This was the first sniff spot experience for Papito and me. Papito is working through some possible trauma experienced with previous owners and was a little hesitant to get out the car. Chip was so helpful to bring treats and try to help me get Papito out of the car. Once in the space, Papito loved running around. Chip provided water for him and there were really nice benches for me to relax while Papito played. Looking forward to visit again!Shanika G.

FAQ about our Nashville 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. 98% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Nashville 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 179 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 27 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.
