This was the best spot ever! Such a beautiful yard! My dogs had the best time and ran freely without worry. This will be my SPOT from this day forward. You can’t find a better place to let your pups play and have zero worries

This was my dog’s first time in grass unleashed since we are from NYC! He was obsessed. This yard was perfect for fetch and getting some sprints in.

Chema and I loved this sniffspot! The yard was huge and well kept. Rain or shine you will have a good time. Toys and allergy friendly treats were provided:) Will be coming back again!

My dog loved this spot! Very lengthy and spacious, which allowed him to run a good distance and tire him out! We will be back:)

Amazing yard! It was exactly how it was advertised, nice and private. Communication was great. Super nice host. They had a place for us to sit while our dogs sniffed around. Definitely will be coming back!

Absolutely loved it! Almost as much as the pups did! But I will say I wish more people would pick up their dogs poop after them because my friend and I picked up a lot that wasn’t left by our dogs. This isn’t the host fault this is the guest fault we will definitely be back!

Murphy’s backyard is a treasure! Fully fenced with plenty of shade and well maintained, in a quiet neighborhood. Easy to access, we were able to romp, leap, dash, fetch and sniff until we tired. Murphy staged balls for play, bowls for water, and bags for poop.

We loved this big beautiful backyard! There is so much room for running! It’s easy to access, and we really liked that we could sit down on the picnic table, the trees are really tall and beautiful to look at, and we really liked that we could use the hose to give the dogs water. The dogs had an amazing time!! We felt lucky to have found this Sniffspot because one of our dogs loves to sprint and play fetch, so this backyard was perfect!! :)

The yard was perfect for our play date. Plenty of room for the dogs to run around. The yard was mowed and manicured. Will definitely be back.

My pups and I LOVE this yard! The owner is AMAZING! I had a little family emergency at the last second and messaged her to push the time back a little and she was very flexible and still let us come by! We will absolutely be back! 😊😊

We all love this yard. Great owners, really sweet, and great at communicating. 2nd time there and my boys love being able to run or just be lazy.

Christina C.

May 2024

Great time! Easy to get in and out; the yard was as described and large enough for our young one to run around. All the dogs enjoyed the new smells and it was nice to know they were safe and secure. We got to play with them and let them do their thing without stressing about other dogs. We'd go back to this location for sure!
