55Amazing space and wonderful host. Baxter and Milo loved having the room to chase their tennis balls and wander. The space is fully fenced, which allowed us to relax while the boys enjoyed some freedom. There are chairs to sit on while the dogs play, and plenty of shade. Highly recommend!Moira C.

55This sniff spot was perfect. I have a one year old dog who's never been out of his own house and yard. He LOVED this space. So much room to run and play. The owner was lovely, and made sure I had everything I needed. Fully fenced in and a HIGH fence too. Great for any reactive dogs. Julie G.

55This was such a wonderful and fun experience for our 10 month old rescue puppy! She has a lot of energy and some anxiety. So it was great to have her run free in a big yard that is fully fenced in and away from possible triggers. She was so so happy. We will definitely be back! Thank you to the host! Samantha S.
