Gina & Jeff's Private Dog Park In Sacramento

Enjoy big skies and big space in our fully fenced yard close to Curtis Park/Sac City College and only a couple of miles away from Midtown and Downtown Sacramento. We’ve got dog toys, chuck-its, dog treats, agility equipment, a pup pool + pup splash pad (both are an extra fee), poop bags, and lots of smells for your furry friends. For the humans, we've got two nice patio spaces, a table and chairs, beverages, snacks, bug spray, hand sanitizer, and sunscreen. We even have a frisbee golf basket and some discs for you to use! Enjoy the outdoor string lights in the evening, a cozy sectional couch, rocking chairs, and we offer the fire pit and patio water misters for an additional fee. We'd like to make your time in our yard as comfortable as possible! Please no smoking or vaping on our property at any time. We have made our property as safe and clean as possible but this area was mainly farmland back in the day so there is uneven ground and occasional wet and muddy grass after a hard rain so please use our property at your own risk. We do offer towels for wet and muddy paws. Lastly, please be respectful of our neighbor’s space next door and don’t hang out by the gate. We also ask that you clean up after yourself and your dog and leave our yard as it was when you entered. We really appreciate that as we may not be able to get outside to clean up in between guests when timing is tight. Our spot also offers Memberships! Get a slightly discounted rate, book your reservations further in advance, and take advantage of “member only” hours. Thank you so much!

Catherine's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Sacramento

We have a large yard in the back corner of a cul de sac. Our yard backs up to at least 6 other house’s backyards. It is fully fenced with a lot of rock areas near the entrance and back of yard (see pics) then a big grass area. The grass is dead at this time of year due to there being clay under all the grass, so I apologize ahead of time for the ugly grass. But it definitely makes it better for any potty spots (we won’t even notice). There is a hammock/swing style seat as well as four chairs and a fire pit. There is a light with a UV bug zapper to keep bugs to a minimum for any evening use. We also have a trampoline for anyone who has kids. Bring them over to play! My son will be 9 soon and loves to play with other kids! There is a sprinkler set up on the safety net as well as a blue tooth speaker/disco light for fun. We have a hose with a spray nozzle and if the trampoline sprinkler is desired, the hose hooks up and it makes the whole thing a spray play place. I have plenty of doggy bags to pick up any potty messes. There is concrete to walk on and the initial back patio is covered. There is a bowl for water and we always have extra water and some drinks for our guests. There is a kiddie pool that we have set up as a ball pit, however that will be turned into the pool for the doggos to cool off in. The space is great for running around and playing fetch. Landscaping is usually done once weekly to keep weeds and grass trimmed. (Pics don’t show it freshly done). There is shade from trees and the house also provides shade most parts of the day depending on where the sun is. There are two electrical outlets outside and we do have Wi-Fi available for those who need it. If you are booked, the password will be provided. We do have snacks if anyone gets hungry while here, and dog treats available by request as well! Our yard is pesticide and fertilizer free as well. There are also doggy towels if needed, feel free to let me know. And if you have any other questions, just ask away! We’re here for you! We look forward to meeting you and your fur baby!

This was our first SniffSpot experience and it was a good one! There was plenty of shaded space for pup and humans. I saw a dog pool in the photos and got excited, but noticed you need to request it 24 hours in advance. My bad, but will certainly add this service in next time!

Super cute, large yard with great amenities and add ons! Not a lot of shade, but they have multiple covered areas and are working on growing trees. My dogs loved the pool! Definitely one of the nicest Sniffspots in Sac. Can’t wait for our next visit!

Our favorite spot! The patio misters are a lifesaver, so nice to relax in the shade while my dog sniffs around.

Wonderful open space! This Sniffspot was very clean and offered many amenities. Multiple water bowls were filled when we arrived, and the splash pad extra was set up and ready to go. There is snacks + water for you, and treats for your companion! There were also a lot of toys, bags + a pooper scooper, a bluetooth speaker, and plenty of comfy seating. Would definitely recommend! Thank you Gina and Jeff 🐾😁

Lovely spot for our dogs to chase each other and meet with our dog training. They are so attentive to detail and have everything a pup might need while at a sniff spot (toys, treats, poop bags, water bowls). We enjoyed our time here and will be back.

Thank you so much for providing such a great space for our pups to play in. They loved all the different areas to sniff and the variety of water bowls. The yard was very secure which gave this worried mom peace of mind.

Nice spot for ball chase! Not much shade in the morning but it looks like they are growing some trees. 😀. Probably decent shade under the awnings mid-day. Should have added on the misters since I chose the hottest day of the year.

Beautiful spot and a very kind host. It was too hot to play today but we had a nice time sniffing around and enjoying the misters on the patio.

Great communication. Clear instructions. Easy access. And of course a great set up and space. It’s like a glamping/day camp for your dog. Totally recommend.

This was great! Owners were super responsive and communicative. The instructions to access were super clear. The sniff spot itself was great, with great amenities for humans and dogs. We couldn’t have asked for anything more!

This was a great, open space for our dog to run and be a dog without her reactive triggers. There was tons of activities, water bowls, toys, and treats. Aside from the burrs spread around the grass, everything was amazing and we’ll be back.

Great yard and amenities, especially for our nervous pup! My prior glowing review still stands! (This time of year just had to watch out for little prickly burrs, but that’s just the season)

Thor and Mia had a wonderful time! The yard is spacious and very clean. I love that they have water available everywhere for the dogs and they even provided poop bags. We will definitely be coming back. I’m so happy my dogs had a quiet place to run around and play ❤️. Thank you!

What a lovely spot for dogs and their humans! There is everything you need and then some: sun/shade, snacks, water, poop bags, toys, grass/patio, and even some agility hurdles. Completely private, safely fenced, and perfect for dogs that get anxious around other animals. It is also great for anxious humans: the owners provide tons of information both before and during your stay so you know exactly where to park and what you can do while inside the yard. The sign welcoming you is personalized which is a nice touch.

FAQ about our Sacramento 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.
