Description

(FYI guests. We might have to block out Winter and Spring days after rain. Our yard becomes a muddy mess). Let your pooch(es) romp away in our spacious fenced-in backyard. Our late boxer loved it. Enjoy a shady view from comfortable chairs on our deck. We love litter reunions! You're welcome to BYOB and appetizers. Also, while you're in Barrington, visit Bredwell for customized dog meals. https://bredwell.com/

Fully Fenced

This back yard is fully fenced with driveway guest parking. There is a mix of both sun and shade, and a hose for water. The grass is treated for bugs in the spring and kept short through the summer. No people or dog distractions at my property, so the place is all yours to wander. I absolutely love making this space comfortable for dogs & owners to stretch their legs in peace. Let me know how you enjoy it!!

Vinnie's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Elk Grove Village

Fully Fenced
0.02 acres

Welcome to my quiet, safe, fully fenced backyard located in Elk Grove Village. This is a clean, private yard with a solid 6-ft privacy fence, perfect for dogs who need secure off-leash time, space to run, sniff, explore, or just relax. The yard is ideal for reactive dogs, shy dogs, or dogs who don’t have a yard at home. You’ll have the entire space to yourself — no other dogs will be outside during your booking. Parking is simple with free street parking right in front, and access is easy through the side gate. I keep the yard clean and ready for each visit. Please just pick up after your dog, close the gate securely, and enjoy your time.

We’ve got a nice, big 1/3-acre backyard with plenty of room for the dogs to run and play. There are a few trees for shade, and the trampoline, patio, and deck are set up so they don’t take away from the open space. It’s all fenced in with a private entrance — a great spot to relax or enjoy the outdoors.

Hi, my name is Bob and I grew up here with many different dogs over the years. They all loved to run, play and explore the yard as much as I did. I decided to name my spot for my mother, who always brought me to all the pet shops around and the reason for my love of animals. I sincerely hope that you and your dogs will also have as much fun running, playing and exploring the yard as we did!

Quiet .7 Acre, Fully Fenced, Private Yard In Elgin

Fully Fenced
0.7 acres

Our spot is on a large corner lot on a dead-end street in a quiet, secluded neighborhood. We have one nextdoor neighbor who has no pets, and we have large privacy trees between us. The yard is shaded with established trees, and roughly three quarters of an acre are fenced in with a ranch style wooden fence (the lowest rung is 6 inches above the ground, so our spot is not suitable for tiny dogs who might want to run underneath). The yard is not close to the road, but people occasionally walk by and are visible. We have lots of squirrels and chipmunks to chase. It's a great spot for reactive dogs who need to run or nap in a sun-dappled space and don't do well at a traditional social dog park. We have a large vegetable garden and do not use pesticides in the yard to protect our pollinator friends. Our cozy deck is available with comfortable seating, tables, and wifi. I work from home and am often around if you happen to need anything. We do have a rescued 7 year old pup on the premises, but he will stay inside and away from windows. Come on in and make yourselves at home!
