55My pups loved this because there were so many rocks and textures to sniff 😂
The fence is a little bit shorter than 3 feet in some areas, so be aware, but there was enough space to play that my dogs weren’t tempted to hop over it. Also - the host does allow pet parents to sit on the deck, which is nice, but there’s also a seating area out in the grassy space. There are two German shepherds that live next door, that came out VERY briefly. They showed curiosity but we’re not aggressive/mean. They were out for maybe 3 minutes, and my reactive pup got over it very quickly because of the leaves and rocks around to sniff. there’s no way of them getting into the yard, or within 15/20 feet of your dog. There’s barriers on both side which also blocks the view of the dogs too! The neighbor heard my reactive girl going a little crazy and was very attentive to her dogs and brought them inside.
My dogs are 25 and 22lbs each, and 7 months old, so not huge, and they had plenty of space to lose their minds for a bit. Parking is also excellent!! You essentially pull right up to the yard. Mara J.

55Very cute yard. Fence is not fully secure my one dog could probably jump it. A small dog could get thru a hole in the back corner. But it’s very quiet no other animals can be seen so my dogs had to want to jump the fence. I will be back again for sure :) Shelby T.

55My puppy Scout had a great time exploring and running through the yard! The yard is well maintained and fully fenced, I wasn't worried about my dog attempting to jump the shorter part of the fence. I will definitely be back to let my dog enjoy some off leash fun!Kelsey S.

55Lovely space, clean, with lush grass and plenty of room for my big working line GSD to run. There's seating in the yard and on the deck, so it was easy to keep an eye on him.
It's tucked back away from the road, too, so people walking their dogs or driving by can't be seen at all.
We did hear the neighbour dog for about 20 seconds (out of the entire hour), but he was out of sight and clearly not near the fence. Not worth worrying about at all unless you have a REALLY intense fence-fighter or large breed fence-jumper with reactivity.
(My dog has been attacked in the past and he developed reactivity as a result, so I say this from a place of familiarity. I really do feel safe visiting here!) Raile L.

55I've been back a couple of times since my first review, and Corsair and I continue to love this place, it's clean and very private. All you can see on most sides are woods or a shed, no passers-by making you feel awkward or distracting your dog.
I haven't heard the neighbour dog at all. As the host said, it's contained and nowhere in sight, so this is only a note about the very small (maybe 1 minute) of barking that I heard on my first visit.
P.S. if your dog likes Puller rings, there's more than enough room to make full use of the toy, and a very gentle slope to the ground that makes for some really fun chases! Corsair likes to grab the ring and do a full lap around the yard to build up speed for the return to me!Raile L.

FAQ about our Rochester Hills 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. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Rochester Hills 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 262 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.
