55This spot knows how to make a dog happy! Our pup loved digging in the pit and splashing in the water - he got the zoomies and was snoozing until his afternoon walk. Thanks!Chen L.

55David’s space was great! The basket of toys, fresh drinking water and paddling pool made available made for a nice, fun morning. Our two boys had a great time running around playing chase and were snoozing all afternoon. Copper especially loved the sand pit! Would 100% book again. Kirsty B.

55This is a wonderful Sniffspot. My girl is “extremely nervous” and reactive and so she followed me around everywhere we went in the yard! We will need to try a few more times for her to get used to the space before she will probably actually run! She is a rescue from the meat trade in China. Happily, this spot is fully and safely secured, fence/wise, and, we felt very safe there !Shauna M.

55David’s spot was easy to access, private, and very secure - my pup explored the entire perimeter of the fence and found not a single gap. Lots of toys in the yard to play with. A little bit muddy the day we visited, but that’s going to happen in the outdoors in this funny cold-warm-cold weather we’ve been having, and didn’t take away from our happy sniffy play time one bit.

55We had a great time! My dog loved zooming around the yard. Water bowl, toys, poop bags, and chairs were provided. Overall a very clean yard except for one poop. Saw a few neighbours from across the yard, but no dogs. Was able to park on the driveway and easily access the yard through the wooden gate. Maggie L.

FAQ about our Scarborough 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 Scarborough 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 139 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 29 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.
