We are closed for winter! See you and your pup next year in our pool! Welcome to Maxie Pool for private water play time! The first pet pool in the area. The pool is chlorinated and professionally cleaned weekly. We provide S/M/L size dog life jackets (1 jacket for each size) and some pool toys. The water temperature largely depends on the weather conditions. Due to the cold weather and rain recently, the pool water temperature is around 60-64 F degree at noon(early November). We had some big pups(golden retriever, bernedoodle, and labs) come to swim and they all had a lot of fun. However, some small dogs might feel cold in the water and the pool in November is unsuitable for people to swim. 2 guests come free with the 1st dog. Any additional dog includes 1 additional guest at no extra charge. If you have extra guests coming, please select the correct number of additional guests in the EXTRAS. Extra guest is $15/person/hour. Total 6 guests max. Sorry the pool is not suitable for children. Children under 16 years old are not allowed to enter the property for safety reasons.

As this is mainly the dog pool, dogs constantly bring oil/dust/dirt to the pool. We clean after each visit and the filter system is on but there is a limit to how much the filter system can handle. Generally, the water is clearer on weekdays compared to weekends. *Please do not touch any pool system control in the backyard. You will be responsible for the damage if misused. *This is a quiet neighborhood, please respect our neighbors so no screaming/yelling/loud music/pool parties. *Dogs must be leashed when entering and exiting the pool area, only off-leash your dog once the pool gate is locked. *The pool area is fenced. Please make sure the pool fence is locked at all times. *Please note there are plants, trees & flowers, and areas with mulch, rocks & stones in the backyard. Please watch out for your dogs' activities at all times. The host is not liable for any injuries or damages that could happen to dogs and pet owners. *Please bring your own towels. No water hose/outlets/dryers available in the backyard and no shower facilities for dogs. *Pool is professionally cleaned by the pool cleaning company every Monday and there might be pool chemicals. *No dog treats/human food or glassware in the pool. *No use of the pool beside the registered guests. *No peeing/pooping in the pool.

Sterlyng's Private Dog Park In Morgan Hill (Optional Pool Extra add-on)

Partially Fenced

10 acres

We are on 10 acres and would love to share our yard with you. Beautiful Mountain View’s amongst grape vines with gravel pathways. On the interior portion of the park is a dirtbike track with a more rugged terrain and incline walking. Definitely more weeds, but if you are looking for a more off road feeling this is another option aside from the full pathway around the perimeter of the dirtbike track. This time of year the grapevines are a beautiful with lots of beautiful green foliage. We do also have a cool off spot in the front of the house under a very large old pine tree with roses to smell while your dog has their belly on the cool green grass by their water bowl in the shade. Where your new morning or afternoon ritual begins. Please note: Pool is an ‘extra’ charge. You can add this item as an extra while adding this spot to your cart. Not included in base charge. PUP PARTIES 🎉🥳🎈🎁🐶🐾🎈🎁🎉 We are still new to SniffSpot but have been asked multiple times recently if we would host pup parties. This is something I have not yet put a price point on but can make this feasible as well. If you are interested in coordinating something, please message me and I can send you SniffSpot items available for parties. (i.e. BBQ, Tables, chairs, shaded areas, pool time. etc)

There are fish, frogs, newts, and crawdads. All wildlife is protected, so please don't catch or remove them. You may walk up and down along the creek exploring, as long as you turn around if you see a waterfall downstream or a house in the distance.

We have been taking Ollie here for quite awhile and it’s always a great time. There’s always a Welcome written in chalk when you come through game. We certainly feel welcome every time we’re there. This is truly is a fabulous Sniffspot for dogs and humans.

Aditi S.

July 2024

Amazing, well kept lawn. It’s a huge and lots of areas to sniff. Val gave detailed instructions to access the property which was very helpful. There were toys, fresh drinking water bowls, treats and some other amenities that were very thoughtful. She shared WiFi access and it was an added bonus since my network was weak around the area. My pup had so much fun running and sniffing.

Kelli G.

July 2024

A great Sniffspot! This was our first time using Sniffspot and won’t be our last. Host was super friendly and helpful and gave great instructions. The gate is super secure and the gardens are beautiful. If you are in Gilroy or the surrounding areas, this is worth a stop!

Val’s backyard is simply AMAZING. It’s very clean, well maintained and fully fenced. My pup and I had a great time.

This was our first time trying Sniffspot and we couldn’t have picked a better place! The host sent clear instructions ahead of time. It’s a large yard that’s beautifully maintained, clean, and fully fenced. They also had toys, water, and a little kiddie pool. Our dog Frankie had so much fun sniffing, running around, and using the kiddie pool. 10/10 recommend and we will definitely book this place again!

Really beautiful and well maintained yard with a lot of open space. My dog really liked playing fetch here.

Leticia R.

August 2024

Our two basset hounds (Moose & Molly) had a great time. The property is beautiful and quite spacious for a good game of fetch or to have a glorious sniff session. Instructions were clear and it was easy to get in. We appreciated the provisions of dog waste bags, dog treats, hand sanitizer gel & wipes and sunscreen— very thoughtful! Thank you again for hosting us!

I recently visited Pawsome Dog Park with my husky, Roxie, and we had an amazing time! Roxie had an absolute blast running around and playing in the kiddie pool. The facilities are well-maintained and provide a safe, fun environment for dogs to socialize and play. Roxie was so happy and exhausted after just 30 minutes of play, which is a testament to how engaging and enjoyable the park is. Huge shoutout and thanks to Pawsome Dog Park for giving us this wonderful opportunity to bond. We can't wait to come back!

This property is wonderful. My dog got some much needed off leash exercise. The happiness on her face said it all. The hosts had the sweetest welcome message for us in chalk at the entry gate. There was fresh water left out, toys to play with, and the setting is so peaceful that I wanted to just sit and relax! We will be back.

Another one of our favorite sniff spots. Huge open, clean space and plenty of room to explore.
