55This Sniffspot is the best one I’ve gone to so far! It was beautiful, looks magical!! My dogs had such an amazing time, playing fetch and chasing each other, so spacious, so green! We loved it! The ambience was so relaxing, we had a blast and would 100% recommend and we’ll be back!
55Our dog had a wonderful time exploring the yard and sniffing everything. The host was lovely, and there was plenty of water and balls available for us to use.
25We picked this spot because of the size of the backyard and it was a very beautiful spot and ideal for a curios dog. Nonetheless, there was limited parking on this street, so I parked a quarter of a mile out. When I arrived, i heard the neighbors larga dogs barking and assumed they would go back inside like the description said but unfortunately the neighbors dogs were baiting my dog by barking, marking territory, and trying to jump over the fence to see my dog. My dog is getting training and is not supposed to be around other dogs and hear them because he gets into a huge panic. I couldn’t move my dog without the other dogs running to see where he was. I only stayed for about 25 minutes and had to leave after my dog started having stress diarrhea. The owner is not in control of the neighbors dog but a better warning in the bio would have been great.
55Not my first time here and definitely won't be my last. Me and my dog always have a blast!
55Perfect amount of shade and exploring for the pups!
55This spot is so lovely :) the steps are a bit precarious and you will find some scattered foxtails but it's still a great time and the dogs absolutely love jt
55Lovely spot as usual. Beautiful plants and interesting terrain for dogs to run and sniff and play!
45We returned to this lovely spot after not using local sniffspots for awhile. This is such a beautiful yard and it is even more inviting than it was last time. Many little places to sit and to enjoy. It feels like an oasis in the city and it was delightful. My dog is an anxious GSD which is why we are trying to get back to using sniffspots. Challenges today were the dog next door at the fence by the nice colorful sitting area, but that was only a brief period. That was not so bad; a good training experience. When the fire crackers started booming at 9:45 ish, she could not get out of there fast enough. I live in Oakland and I know how bad the noise is of firecrackers but was not expecting it at that time of the morning. Thank you Lilly for sharing your gorgeous garden.
55Wonderful large garden, with lots of different nooks and levels. There was so much for our pup to explore, as well as a large open space for ball throwing. (Also a very comfortable shady couch for pup-parents to relax on!)
55Maggie loved the experience! Parking and access to the garden was easy. Will definitely visit again!

Oakland, California

Description

A lot of vegetation and places to sit down, meditate, read a book, study, or have a picnic. Your pup will love to play in our one-acre garden. Picking fruit or vegetable etc. is off the limit. Drinking water for animals is provided in various containers throughout the property. Please do not turn on or use any water equipment on our property - we had some serious problems in the past because of this. Please clean up after your dog’s “business”, smile. That’s a mandatory request. Waste bags are provided in a plastic box with other dog’s supplies) and a BROWN garbage can is in the front of the house by the street for your convenience. Thank you! Woof woof! 🌸 Note: in the rainy season we might not change the water for dogs because it’s senseless, so please arrive always with your own supply of water and if it’s raining you might like to wear rain boots as well. Have fun!
