Description

Welcome to Our Hidden Gem Next to the B2B Trail! Our private, fully fenced dog park is the perfect place for your pup to run free, explore, and just be a dog. Conveniently located right off the B2B trail and across the street from Timber Town, this spot offers a unique mix of nature, enrichment, and fun. Upon arrival, you’ll find a designated parking spot and a peaceful trail that winds around the back of the property to the park entrance. Along the way, you’ll pass our duck enclosure and pond—feel free to stop and say hi! If you'd like to feed the ducks, they love shredded lettuce or diced cucumbers (please, no bread). At the end of the trail, you’ll find a double-gated entry with a separate area for leashing and unleashing your dog safely. Inside, your pup will have the freedom to explore about a quarter-acre of fenced-in space, featuring fun enrichment structures like a dog bridge and stacked hay bales for climbing, sniffing, and playing. This space is ideal for dogs who prefer a quiet environment without the stress of other dogs nearby. While our fence is 4 feet high and the area is smaller than some, it’s a great spot for dogs who just need a safe, fun place to burn off energy and enjoy nature. You're welcome to bring a friend and their dog too—just add them as an extra when you book. We can’t wait for you and your dog(s) to experience a relaxing and joyful visit. See you soon!

Hi, I’m Mike, a furniture designer and the founder of a cat furniture eCommerce company that specializes in wall-mounted pieces made to enrich cats’ lives. Animal enrichment has always been a major part of my life—what started as a passion for building creative spaces for cats has grown into a full-time mission to design environments where animals can thrive. I opened this Sniffspot with the help of my sister and brother-in-law, both of whom are dog trainers and fellow business owners. Their expertise has been instrumental—not just in building out the park itself, but in shaping it into a safe, thoughtful space designed around what dogs truly need for fun and fulfillment. This park is a work in progress and a labor of love. We’re continuing to add new features over time, including unique dog structures and, by the end of summer, our goal is to make the park secure enough for off-leash cat visits as well. I’m excited to bring together the worlds of canine and feline enrichment in a space that celebrates movement, curiosity, and joy. Thanks for visiting—hope to see you (and your animals) soon!

Lacie's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Ypsilanti

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

The backyard has two levels for you and your pup to enjoy. The lower yard is spacious, grassy, and perfect for running, sniffing, and playtime. Up a short set of stairs, there’s an upper deck with a long table and chairs — a nice spot for you to sit, relax, or even bring a friend while your dog explores below. Most of the open room is on the lower level, so your pup will have plenty of space to stretch their legs and have fun.

Leslie's 12 Acre Unfenced Private Dog Park In Ann Arbor

Unfenced
12 acres

Welcome! We are working hard to make our peaceful, quiet 12 acres into a beautiful park. You are welcome at any time, day or night, to walk, run, bike, ski or snowshoe with your dogs. We no longer have any pets-- no more dogs, horses, chickens, or other livestock. We are often visited by deer and groundhogs. Although we have 12 acres, the house and barn are in the middle of it, so you may see the house from many areas during your visit. Usually, we are working inside or we are away and we keep most of the curtains closed. We may use the driveway or receive a delivery. Future plans include clearing the West trails, planting more evergreens, and making an indoor play space in the barn. Our park will continue to improve -- it is a work in progress! We took lots of pictures and will continue to add them. We want you to know as much as possible about the site before you come here for your visit. We welcome your suggestions on how to improve.
