55AirBuds was great. Its exactly what we were looking for for our pit furbaby. We get judged a lot at dog parks and people wont let their dogs play with our boy so We felt very comfortable letting him run around at airbuds. No distractions amd had the whole yard to himself. we are definiety booking again. He loved the sticks and twigs. Fencing was perfect and place was clean. Thank you Airbuds ! Nora V.

55Ben's House has a nice high fence which is good for dogs who are easily distracted. No other people or animals were visible. The yard was very clean and I had no issues with debris or junk in the yard (one review mentioned this). There has been discussion of the fence having gaps. For my two 50 lb dogs, the gap under one of the gates would not be an issue, but if you had a smaller dog, especially a super fast & sneaky pupper, it may be worth considering.
Two issues to consider:
The property is on the smaller side, so if you have big dogs really needing to run, this may not be ideal. However if you have smaller dogs, or you want to work on obedience exercises it's a nice option.
The rock pathway to the entry gate is up a small incline. If you are unsteady on your feet (as I am) or walk with assistance (i.e. a cane) it will feel a bit steep. Jayne O.

55This spot was just what we needed! We wanted to find a neutral place for our 2 year old Rottweiler to meet a new pup friend for the first time. It was easy to find, very secure, and quiet. The pups had a great time! Rebekah J.

55Great place for our pup to run around a lot! Fence is sturdy and gate is easy to get into the yard. The Wifi password is posted on a window and there is plenty of seating on the deck. Safe, tidy and we will return!Marissa H.

55Private space with no other animals present. There are a few small holes in the fence that are covered up with rocks, but large dogs would not be able to escape. Andrea H.

55A perfect little backyard with a basketball hoop (hence the name Air Bud 🥰). It is fully fenced, has water access with a bowl provided, and a garbage can to toss the poop in, but make sure to BRING YOUR OWN BAGS! Free wifi is also provided, which is so sweet of the host to offer 🥹
The fence is old so there are some gaps at the bottom where it has rotted out, but they’re blocked with rocks - my dog is 60lbs, so it wasn’t an issue for us, but if you have a smaller dog, maybe do a walk-around before letting your pup off leash. All in all, this is a great spot that we will definitely be returning to! Adrianna O.

55Such a cute backyard and perfect size, even for my three dogs. I could keep an eye on all of them while they explored. Thankful to Ben for providing a water bowl because it was warmer than I thought it was going to be. Overall, would visit again for sure!Margie A.

55Ben's spot is a nice cozy, large enough yard to make any pup happy. Nice and shady! You feel nice and secluded. Yard is super secure! Just bring an extra ball in case it goes under the deck. It's perfect, I'll definitely be a regular. 10*Stephanie T.

FAQ about our Tacoma 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 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.
