lots of sunny spots, lots of shade too. To watch my dog run off leash and roll around in the grass is worth it!

Great gated space. Two gates for extra security. Plenty of areas of sun and shade. The owner left out a large bowl of water, which was lovely for our thirsty pups during their play time. The area was quite private and quiet and very easy to find.

I was feeling ill and my dog didn't care! This spot saved me! My dog was running laps in my apt... hahaha. Great space. I just wrapped myself in a throw and sat on deck with my tea. Mission accomplished.

I've been visiting yard more often. Ticks are everywhere in the parks... I'm bring treated for ticks and tessi dog has ample guard and vaccines. We love this space. It's always ready for a snoopy doggie. The neighbor dog is skidding but the dogs have begun to learn to race play along the fence. Aaahhh... she is not out too often. Host is cool Kat.

We had so much fun ! Such a nice little area to let your fur baby run around. Super clean and they had a selection of toys to choose from if you didn’t bring your own. They even had a sprinkler if your pup likes water !

David’s yard was easy to access. We couldn’t find our dogs own balls to throw for him and all of the toys that they had for the visiting dogs were really unbelievable . They were very, very hospitable to us. The backyard was clean and our dog was very happy. David was very accommodating with the time available.

Andrea R.

The area is clean and safe. Lots of room for your dog to run and play, exercise or train. David left some fresh water and treats for my pup. It was also nice to have a chair to sit in and listen to music while my Hugo played!
