55We were initially confused when we arrived and the location was closed. We figured out that there was a message with an entry code and went in. The place was clean and big enough for what we wanted. Pretty cold inside though. All in all, Otis was able to run and jump and play for an hour without worrying about breaking stuff at home or getting lost in a park. We would consider booking again in the future. Abigail W.

55What a beautiful oasis! I’m so lucky to have found this place. I brought a friend along with her dog and she just absolutely loved it. Squibby is adorable. I will definitely be coming back.Imnet Y.

55The self-serve wash station was a lifesaver! My husband was injured in an accident and was super limited on bending and I knew our nervous pup would not like a trip to the groomers. The wash station was perfect for me to be able to handle the bath time heavy lifting, and a big, warm, spot to get all the post-bath zoomies out! Easy access, quiet, and private. Jennifer D.

55This yard is big, especially for NYC! The girls had a really nice time exp all the areas and were very curious about the chickens, which Nandini kindly put safely away in advance of our visit. There are human neighbors who were very cool, even when my nutty dogs barked at them! Definitely will visit again and will book for a cooler time of day/summer. Bring bug repellent too 😁Hanan h.

55The space was great! We added on the grooming tub to use for our Great Dane and they had towels and shampoo for us to use. Everything was super clean. The instructions were very clear on how to enter, even though no one was there. The play area is big enough for a Great Dane to get his zoomies out. Annaleise k.

This was my first time using Sniff Spot. I wanted to introduce my nervous dog to my friend’s puppy in a neutral location. I was raining so we were very glad we chose this indoor location. They ran around and chased toys… but probably aren’t friends just yet. Puppies have a lot more energy than dogs. Ha!Dawn S.

55Setting an appointment, accessing the play area was super easy. Lennon loved being able to run around off leash and the amenities are spotless. I will definitely be back and can’t recommend the zoomie room at Muddy Paws enough! Eric P.

55Great indoor spot - plenty of room to run and play games with your dog and very secure, with multiple doors between the play area and the street. Note that the lock pad is electronic - I’m a Luddite who spent a couple minutes looking for the old school key pad, but it’s quite obvious when you realize it’s electronic.Katheryn W.

55Nice size yard for my puppy and her friend to run around. There are lots of places to sit and even extra chairs! There are poop bags as soon as you come in and a little sink where you can fill up your pups bowl if you didn't bring any water. If you're coming during the summer months bring mosquito repellent!Gina R.

FAQ About New York 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.
