55Great place. Easy to find and access. Plenty of street parking, at least when we were there. Fence is fully secure and our pups had a great time.
55Our dogs loved the yard! They were able to get their zoomies out! Definitely will come back :)
55Very clean and peaceful space! We had a ton of fun here, will definitely be back!
55Great space to have your dog run around. Very grassy!
55Michael’s yard was fully fenced and perfectly clean - no leftover business to accidentally step in and plenty of space for my pup to run and roll around!
55This sniffspot is perfect! Not too big, but big enough for a good romp. my dogs love it every time!
55Great spot. I will be back. Just an fyi, there are grapes growing in the summer.
55My dogs love it here. Gets great sunlight during the day and has shade for when they need to take a break from playing. Perfect for small dogs.
55Wonderful yard and very friendly hosts! They are always very happy to respond to any messages and they are extremely accommodating. The yard is safe and it makes my very dog reactive pup feel like she can relax and have a good time. I love this place but more importantly my dogs do!
55Great yard, well kept and comfortable!

On rare occasion someone will walk with their dog down the alley behind the yard. Note that as of June 1, the fence facing the alley is not sturdy enough to hold dogs back from an aggressive fence fight if your pup is prone to such things.

Sometimes

Sometimes people walk down the alley behind the yard. I don’t yet have mesh attached to the fence so passers-by are visible. Occasionally residents of the neighboring 2-plex come and go by car or foot. The house on the south side of the yard is (long term) unoccupied but once every month or so a landscaping crew swoops in the straighten things up over there. Lots of mowers and leaf blowers - noisy. Sadly, I’m unable to predict when those days will be.

Description

Modest but useful fully enclosed 1500 sq ft back yard in Columbia City. If the nearby dog park on Genessee is too much for your pup, enjoy this little retreat instead. Fully fenced and enclosed for peace of mind (although if you have a jumper, take note that my fences are not super tall). There are two narrow strips along each side of the house which make for good sprints. The neighboring house is vacant and the other neighboring property is a duplex with no pets so it is a pretty quiet zone. Trash day is Thursday and the yard faces the alley where the big green trash trucks growl past, so be aware of that potential distraction. Also, the neighbor to the south has an irregular, unpredictable schedule for the landscaping crew, and it can be really noisy for a hot 60 minutes when they show up. If they start up while you're here, feel free to bail and let me know so I can rebook you at no cost. Ample street parking in front of the house on 38th Ave South. Enter through the gate on the north side of the red house. There is no parking along the back alley between 38th & 39th but there is a walk-in entrance from that alley if you prefer. The blue bin against the house contains some dog towels and a few other supplies. Please keep it latched to prevent critters from getting in. Shoot me a note if there are any problems with the yard or supplies.

Hazards

Yellow electrical cable along south fence is mostly but not entirely hidden… if you have a chewer, keep your eye on them in that area.
