Sniffspot has over 150 host yards in the DC area.
City living is not always dog-friendly, especially for pups who need a lot more exercise than a 20-minute walk around the neighborhood. Public dog parks, with their unpredictable melting pot of other pets, aren’t always a safe option., sometimes described as “Airbnb for dog parks,” allows hosts to rent out their yards as private dog parks for dog owners to use by the hour. Washington is the app’s third-biggest market, with more than 100 “spots” available within an hour of DC.
After posting about it online and getting more than 1,000 responses, Adams set up a makeshift website. Within a month, more than a dozen guests had been connected with hosts in the Seattle area who had listed their yards for rent. Gaithersburg resident Ben Wolfgang says Sniffspot has been “a lifesaver” for his two-year-old mix, Cheddar. “We try to go at least every other day, and get an hour of off-leash running around and having fun,” Wolfgang says. “And really at this point, I don’t know what I would do without it.”
Neil Desai, a Shepherd-mix owner in Arlington, says his favorite spot is right near his home—it’s fairly small, but includes dog agility training equipment that his pup, Archie, loves. He says the spot’s hourly price has increased recently, possibly because demand for the app has risen in the area, but he still goes at least once a week.
