Location

Mount Airy, Maryland

Description

The fenced yard is u-shaped and is a grassy hill, with flat spots on the top and bottom, just about an acre at this point. Our entire yard is about 3.5 acres and may be used, details under this. Great terrain to help your dog build some muscle or play fetch on for high energy dogs. Nice tree cover in the summer, and I’ll put out a couple chair swings under our shade tree - or bring a hammock, we have a couple trees perfect for it! We have an almost constant breeze that keeps the bugs away and the temperature comfortable. Wi-fi is available in most of the yard if you need it and there is electrical on the porch. We also have a small creek, flat grassy area and wooded area outside of the fence that you can use. The creek is spring fed and clean and the woods are on a hill. Great fun to walk around in. Please only use this if your dog is on a leash or 100% recall. We do have deer and other wildlife that visit. Hose for rinsing off provided. Water for dogs and poop bags and trash can will be by the porch. We will be expanding the fencing this fall to include another 1/2 acre or so and completely 6’ fence.

Cleanliness

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Not many, sometimes we see turtles in the yard but we have never seen any venomous snakes or other hazards. We keep the yard cleared of anything that might be injested or stepped on and holes are filled in.

Extras

Doggy Bath$10

I’ll wash and dry your dog for you if you need a hand. :) I have experience with large and feisty dogs, so it’s not a problem.

Doggy Playdate$8

If your dog likes other dogs, we have a group that would love to meet them! I’ll let one or more of our kids out and help supervise. Both males and females, if your dog is same-sex aggressive we have you covered. We only have large dogs on the property, they are good with little dogs but just so you’re aware.

Handmade Paracord Collars$30

Handmade paracord collars, martingale style. We can measure your dog while you’re here, or you can do it at home. If you know what you want I can have it ready for you when you arrive. Or pick from the color options when you get here and I’ll have it ready for you next time. Shipping or pick-up can be arranged.

Hi, we love adventure and the outdoors and are always looking forward to the winter! We’ve had Malamutes for almost 10 years now and love every single fur-ridden part of it. We enjoy kayaking, SUP, sledding, bikejor, canicross, fast cat, obedience, rally, agility, hikes, swimming, camping... I think that’s everything our dogs do with us? And visiting stores, Home Depot and tractor supply know most of our dogs names. I hope you enjoy our backyard and check-in often as we expand the fence and clear the pond so it can be a nice swimming area. If you have any questions, please ask!

CATCHWORTH YARD

Fully Fenced

0.25 acres

Hi Everyone, My name is Clarice and my husband is Jason. We have a fully fenced backyard (4 1/2 feet tall) that my husband and I would love for some of furr kids to enjoy! We would love to meet your beloved pets so please come and visit us at Catchworth Yard! Looking forward to having fun with you😊 Some things to take note: Unfortunately, our spot can have bad signal for phones. Also, our yard is located with neighbors so? If you'r dogs is not that comfortable to see other dogs (which i'm never sure if it'll happen, it depends if the neighbor bring out their dog at their yard) then this is something to take note for. THE DOOR FOR THE YARD WHICH IS THE FENCE GATE NEEDS TO BE SURED LOCK. means you need to make sure to check that the lock was hook so we can avoid incidents of the dog getting away. If this sounds ideal for you, we would love for you to experience our lovely, humble and relaxing yard. 💚
