55This place was great! Our dog absolutely ADORED getting to run free and far in this yard, he’s had more fun here than most any other place. The host was extremely welcoming and kind walking us through everything. We will definitely be coming back again!Abigail M.

55This was a great place to let my dog have the freedom to be off-leash and explore. He had a blast going in and out of the wooded areas and running around in the field. The host was friendly and made sure I knew where everything was and answered any questions I had. We will definitely be back! C M.

55This was our first ever Sniffspot and I can't rave enough about the wonderful experience we had with my two dogs, my friend and her 8 month old baby. It had been raining around the time of the appointment, but we still had such a good time. Shana was super friendly, generous and chill; I immediately felt welcomed, relaxed and comfortable upon arriving. I could hear her dogs barking from inside her house at first, but they weren't visible to us at all and they soon stopped. My dogs weren't phased by them either. The yard itself is a dog's dreamland. I don't think we even had a chance to check out the space in its entirety. It's huge, yet still contained. And there are multiple water bowls scattered across different parts of the yard along with water hoses. Chairs and sitting areas are also provided, although we opted to bring our own since it'd been raining. My dogs are still learning recall, so I was intially very worried about letting them go offleash and possibly losing them somewhere in her massive yard, but Shana assured me it was entirely blocked/fenced in, and it was. The dogs were able to roam/wander freely in a contained area as we sat and hung out in the field. No doubt they had the time of their lives and were both so grateful. I'll be back really soon. THANK YOU so much.Lisa H.

55Lots of sniffing space. Our dog enjoyed the woods and the kiddie pool. The host met us when we arrived and had everything available as listed. Thank you!Kalen N.

55I messaged the host beforehand to let them know that my dogs are afraid of strangers, and they kindly agreed to give me the low-down via text. That was my biggest worry and everything else was gravy! The host was so kind and low-key, and the property is really fun for dogs. It was hot so my girls mostly sniffed around and laid in the shade, but they enjoyed it greatly, especially the little trail around back.
One of my dogs is great off-leash but has a pretty rude way of “greeting” humans and dogs when loose, so we’ve had to limit her freedom. Our older dog is a hand-me-down with little formal training or experience with the outside world, so for her to have ANY freedom to just romp and sniff and go where she wants is huge for her mental health. Thank you so much! Caitie D.

55Such a fantastic place to let your pups run free and play! There is such cool spots all over the property- woods, a field, flowers… Hoses for water and to cool them off. Quiet and private and so relaxing. We will be back many times I’m sure. Awesome spot!Trish M.

55Pictures don’t do this yard justice! It’s a dream. It was perfect for a hot and sunny day as there was plenty of shaded areas as well as a hose available for fresh cold water. My dog had a blast exploring and sniffing everything!Kylie S.

55What an absolutely amazing space! My little wild child loved zooming around the big open space, finding all the little shaded nooks, and wandering along the small trail in the woods (this was especially a hit) at the very back of the yard. She even met her first chickens (near the driveway, not visible from the yard) and did great! There was one small spot close to the house where a couple of neighbor dogs briefly came to the fence (and my very dog selective girl had a few words for them 😂), but - proud moment - when I called my pup off, she came and remained away from that section. This is a BIG step for us. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful yard! Mary G.

FAQ about our Norfolk fully fenced dog parks
Are fully fenced dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, inattentive owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. Human and animal safety is our #1 focus. Without a private option, many dog owners are relegated to using athletic fields or tennis courts for their dogs, which are not private or safe. 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. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. And with fully fenced Sniffspot parks, you can get the safety of a fenced-in space for dogs, while still having plenty of space to run.
