55Was great, toys and water were thoughtfully left out too. Jessica was in touch right away and so accommodating. Have. 7 month old puppy who came with some trauma, having her own space to play and run after a ball was fantastic. Cant do dog parks yet so this was exactly what she needed. TYVM!Elizabeth H.

55What a charming yard with an incredible view of the city! Our dogs had a blast checking out all the different features, all while safely enclosed by the fencing. There was so much to see and sniff that both dogs came home and immediately plonked down for a nap!Lucienne R.

55Wonderful spot for my two dogs to run and chase balls, right in the middle of the city. This huge yard has multiple levels and the dogs loved jumping up and over small walls. Was lucky enough to meet host Nina, and looking forward to many more visits. Gretchen C.

55Such a lovely property to explore, complete with various trees & plants, different levels for my pups to climb around on, and more than enough space to run around in. The view is AMAZING as well so I definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting a peaceful trip with their puppies. I brought my 3 pups and we stayed for 1.5hrs (arrived late so didn't stay the full 2hrs), which was still not quite enough time just because there was so much for them to do. Definitely making another reservation here soon :)
(Tip: Push the gate inwards, not pull outwards, so you won't be fumbling around with the gate for 10 minutes like I was and looking you're trying to break in LOL)Christine L.

55This spot is so special! My dog and I both loved it. The terrain is interesting and diverse. There is enough room to chuck a ball. You just have to be careful that you don’t accidentally bounce it over the fence. There are a few places in the fence that could be tricky for dogs that may see a squirrel or bird and take off through the gaps. That isn’t really an issue with my dog, but just be aware. I definitely just kept an eye on my dog the whole time. I also brought my own water bowl and there were plenty of spigots to fill up from. Thank you to the people that host these spots! It is a game changer for me due to the fact that we don’t have a yard and all the dog parks are over packed with dog “walkers.” Happy sniffing! Aleah T.

55Cool spot! We came in a big storm and Pepper was excited to run around in the rain. Definitely a few places she could escape, but we just called her when she got to those spots. She’s an explorer but not a bolter so if you don’t have good recall and your pup is prone to exploring or chasing wildlife this probably would not be a great fit. All that being said, we enjoyed it a lot! Gabrielle T.

55First time at Nina's SniffSpot and my dog loved it. So many different areas for sniffing! Fully fenced with a couple places that have gaps. We kept her on a long line except for when we did recalls. The views! Wow! Love Nina's place! We will definitely be back! Melanie L.

FAQ about our San Francisco 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.
How can I find fully fenced dog parks in San Francisco?
There are 126 fully fenced dog parks in the San Francisco area. The most popular fully fenced park is . You can browse all of our fully fenced dog parks here.
How do I know if a fully fenced dog park works for my dog?
Many people looking for fully fenced parks have dogs that are not good with voice control. Start by applying basic filters, such as fences height and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your dog. You can see attributes of fences such as height, gaps and fencing type to find the perfect fenced-in space for dogs. You can filter by size to make sure you have plenty of space, or a smaller space if you prefer a neighborhood park. You can browse on a map by park location to find one in your city or near your city. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our off-leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible near the space. Make sure to review the amenities of the spot to check features you want for your activity, such as fresh water, trail features such as soft trails or walking trails, or even water fountains. If you prefer wood chips, many of our parks have wood chips or indoor space if you prefer a beautiful park building.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot fully fenced dog park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not permit use by pregnant dogs and we do not permit dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules, such as staying within the designated off-leash areas. Each park location also has their own set of rules that guests need to follow, such as limiting excessive barking.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot fully fenced dog park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
