Enjoy a fully fenced spot (4 foot wire mesh livestock style fencing), run through mowed grass, NEW tall natural meadow (we are “rewilding” a portion of our yard to native plants), two short wooded trails and access to a large pond with dock. Dogs are welcome to swim—bring towels and be prepared for some mud if it’s been raining or you have a pond monster doggy. Woods have wonderful smells, my dogs sometimes find delightful things to roll in. A hose is available for use on warm days and there is a nearby Tractor Supply if your pup needs a spa treatment after their romp. We do have chickens on site and ask you not allow your dog to harass them as you enter and leave (chickens are in a separate fenced area and in a coop/run). My dogs will be in the house—some barking may happen on your arrival but they will not be loose. Wildlife may be encountered (deer, squirrels, crawfish, muskrats, many birds and snapping turtles). **Note: I didn’t want to claim the site as accessible as it is grass and some uneven ground, but feel free to reach out if you need an accommodation to access the spot and we can discuss what is possible** We welcome all. This spot has a water feature, make sure to review these guidelines for visiting spots with water before visiting: https://help.sniffspot.com/article/167-how-to-keep-your-dog-safe-around-pools-and-water

Doggos, come enjoy Pebbles' backyard for him! He is now in a wheelchair and doesn't explore the yard as much, so we'd like to share it. ~1/2 acre fully fenced yard (4ft chain link) that backs up to a field and woods. There are waste bags on a hook next to the back door if you need, you may leave them in the grey trash can around front of the garage. Fresh water is always in the bowl on the patio for your dogs- if you need a refill or to rinse off before leaving, feel free to turn on the hose, just please turn off when finished. UPDATE 8/20** There is some construction/development going on in the field direcrlt behind my yard. There may be workers/equipment/noise from approx 8am-5pm on weekdays. Weekday evenings and all day Saturday/Sunday have been generally quiet and there has been no work. Just FYI in case this might bother your dog(s). I will update conditions here as the development progresses. If your dog is sensitive to loud noises or activity beyond the property line, feel free to message me prior to booking if you would like and I'd be happy to tell you the current conditions from my fence line.
“Beautiful big back yard. Wonderful host! Will definitely be booking...” more

Our air conditioned Indoor space is ready for fun. My backyard dog park is filled with water fun, toys, obstacles, and more fun than you’ll find anywhere else. -my neighbors do have dogs but there is a big distance and privacy fence in between my yard and there’s and it hasn’t seem to disturb my guests and their (reactive) dogs much at all yet. She often puts them away if they get too much. -full privacy fence -yard obstacles like tires, a kids bench, kiddie pools, tree hanging tug toy, and more for your dog to enjoy playing in, on and around. -covered sandbox. Uncover and enjoy! -A bucket of toys of all size, age and destruction levels. -endless tennis balls -towels -multiple kiddie pools. -multiple raised cots for your pup to relax or train on. -accessible water hose -SPLASH PAD -plenty of doggie bags at your disposal -A water dispenser and cups. -This spot is dedicated to my soul mate Tucker who crossed over the rainbow bridge way too early.
