On July 1, we will be discontinuing use of the SNIFFSPOT app for taking reservations. We have utilized this app, in conjunction with our website, since 2020. The majority of you will be unaffected by this change. We regret dropping this service, but have experienced issues with it for a while. Sniffspot refuses to provide guestsโ last names, phone numbers, or email addresses to the host. This is a security issue. Should something occur at the park that warrants notifying guests quickly, we cannot immediately reach those who use Sniffspot. They also penalize multi-dog owners by charging extra for additional dogs. We donโt feel this is appropriate. On our dedicated website, we only charge for time, not how many dogs visit. But perhaps the most aggravating issue is that they do not provide a phone number for host parks to reach them, only an online form. This is unacceptable. (I am still waiting for a return call from last week.)
So, as of July 1, we will no longer be using this service. If you still have a balance on account with Sniffspot, you will need to reach out to them directly for a refund.
Beginning July 1, our website will be the only place to make your hourly or half-hourly reservations. www.fingerlakesdogpark.com. We also offer monthly subscriptions now. These are $50 per month and bill on the first. There is no limit to how many times you may visit or how many dogs you bring. You may cancel at any time. Reach out and we will get you set up for monthly billing and explain which options to use on the website. We apologize to those who have used Sniffspot in the past and hope you understand that we deliberated a long time before deciding to make this change. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us by phone/text (607-279-0403), FB Messenger, or email ([email protected]). Thank you so much for bringing your dogs to our amazing little park!
