55Our pups had such a fantastic time running around the yard and swimming in the pool. The pool is large and clean and the patio around it has good gripping texture to keep pups and people from slipping. There were toys and bowls provided and a hose for rinse off. We will definitely come back again!Samantha R.

55We had a great time today! The dogs were new to pool swimming so they were a little hesitant at first but we will be back. There was lots of room for them to play and enjoy their day. Stephanie S.

55Gus had a great time! Heโs not a big water dog, but appreciated dunking in once or twice. The yard was more his speed - he had a blast chasing squirrels and birds! Highly recommend this spot. Keara C.

55A local favorite spot! Each of my 3 dogs love different parts of the yard; the pool for my swimming dog, a securely fenced in yard allows one of my flighty dogs an opportunity to run off leash, and the large area of grass/bushes afford my little ample sniffing opportunity for my little. Great host that promptly responded to messages. Liz P.

55My girls loved running around here!! The host was easy to get in touch with and was so sweet. They left out toys and a bowl of water for my pups which just such a nice touch. The spot itself was wonderful. Lots of room to run and most of the spot is clear of plants or furniture so pups can just go wild. There was a dog that came up to the back fence. He was friendly and eventually left and did his own thing. Audrey M.

55The perfect spot for a reactive dog like mine! Iโm so appreciative to have found a private but spacious enough area for my reactive chihuahua mix. If your dog is reactive to cats you may want to mind the back door or communicate with the owner. Owner was extremely helpful and responsive as well! Will be booking again! Jojo H.

55This is perfect for my two girls! I brought my two Dobermans out and they had a blast. There are chairs and other items on about 50% of the area but the other 50% is nice and open. The fence is secure and I love that itโs not see through. One thing to note would be that the latch on the gate can be a little difficult so be extra sure itโs closed properly before letting your dog off leash. Overall a great spot and Iโll definitely be coming back. Audrey M.

55Lots to sniff and a good amount of space for my foster puppy to run around and play. She liked being able to wander back into the bushes for some shade! I appreciated the other comments noting that you have to pull the gate closed hard to make sure it latches completely. There are also bunnies in a hutch on one side of the yard. They're high enough up that I'm not sure Moonshine noticed, but a taller dog might.Paula M.

55This is a great spot if youโre looking for complete privacy. The fence is large and the neighborhood is quiet. My dog loved running around here. The owner had their bunnies out, and my dog liked sniffing around the area a few times but luckily he listened when I recalled him. Overall a great Sniffspot, thank you to the owners for opening up their backyard for my crazy anxious boy to play! Katherine F.

55We visited this spot for the first time today and will definitely be back. I took my two Dobermans and there was more than enough room for them to run around, wrestle, chase, etc. I love the variety of toys and activities the host provides, my younger pup really enjoyed the tug toy that it attached to the tree. There is also an abundance of other things that make this spot great. There is tons of shade, an automatic water bowl, dedicated hooks and a bench for your personal items, and the neighborhood seems quiet. The host is also very easy to get in touch with and was more than accommodating. Definitely reach out to them if you have any questions or concerns. One thing to note is that the ground is mostly mulch/leaf litter so if your dog likes to roll around or wrestle like mine do they will get dirty. A baby wipe pretty much solved this problem within a minute so it is by no means a big deal. Audrey M.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
