55Great spot to bring the pups, very quiet and relaxing with all the smells to keep it interesting.
55Had a great time!
55Sarah was very communicative and helpful with finding the location. The place itself was amazing, my dogs had such a great time running and playing, and of course sniffing. The area was clean and free from any debris that could hurt the pups. I will definitely be going back!
55A great spot for a high energy dog to run around. The land is beautiful and clean of anything harmful, with plenty of space for your pup to explore!
55Such a fun place to visit! The grass is well kept and the dogs had a ton of fun.
55Perfect for my pups and family to spend an hour
55Bailey and I had an amazing time at this Sniffspot! The area is not only spacious but also beautifully maintained – you can tell the host puts a lot of effort into keeping it pristine. Bailey had so much fun exploring, and the pond was a delightful bonus. Watching him splash around was the highlight of our visit! This spot is perfect for dogs who love a little adventure in a clean, safe, and scenic setting. We’ll definitely be back for more fun!
55Excellent spot! The dogs had a blast!
55The dogs had a great time! Going back to back days. Such a great spot for dogs to run around freely. So much space! Feels safe even not fenced, not near the main road.
55This spot was amazing! Very peaceful. When I mistakenly got myself stuck in the Baltimore Running Club traffic and was going to miss my appointment window, Sarah so kindly moved my window without me even asking and was more than accommodating. Will definitely return!

UPDATE: Our spot is only open sporadically since we are building a small home on the property and there will be construction going on. Please message me if you want to set up a time to bring your dogs out. I am a middle school art teacher and artist who lives on 38 agricultural acres close to Baltimore. We live on the edge of the dairy farm my grandfather and his brothers owned for years. Now it is a local peach, apple and berry orchard. My kids are the 6th generation on this land. I am a passionate reader and vegan who loves animals, hiking, yoga and nature but also enjoys living close enough to a major city to enjoy theater, museums and culture often.

🚗 LOCATED IN SYKESVILLE, MD (Carroll County) 🚨Updates🚨 💩 We’ve noticed an increase in the amount of guests not picking up their dog’s poop. As a reminder, we require all guests to clean up before they leave. If you don’t want to clean up, we offer an extra called “Poop Patrol”, you can add this on to your visit and we will clean up for you. If we continue to have issues with poop not getting cleaned up, we will need to increase the price of our spot to compensate us for the additional time we have to spend cleaning up between visits. We don’t want to have to do this, so please be respectful and clean up the 💩 📍I believe the neighbors behind us got a new dog and they like to bark. Our fences do not touch, there is probably 10 feet of distance between our fences so there is no worries about fighting through the fence, but you may hear barking sometimes. They will eventually bring the dog in when the barking becomes too much 📍We laid some hay in and around the play area to help with the mud and protect the grass. 📍 We replaced the blue picnic table that was under the canopy with a couch and chair. We still have the pink picnic table with the umbrella. 🐕🦮🐕‍🦺 Bring 3 or more dogs? Message us for a discount prior to booking (let us know how many dogs in your message). ** The pool is not available to guests at this time. ** 🎉 Events / parties welcome 🎉 Large open, fenced-in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. There is lots of space for your dog(s) to run, and ample room to play fetch. There is plenty of outdoor seating to relax while you watch your dog(s) play and explore. The back right corner of the yard has a play area with a playhouse, caterpillar tunnel, tire tunnel, climbing cube, climbing dome, car bed, the biggest tire you’ve ever seen, and hammock. We also have a bunch of dog toys, including several herding balls of various sizes. Part of our yard is shady and part is sunny. You get the best of both worlds. The pool is completely fenced off from the rest off the yard. You don’t have to worry about your dog(s) accidentally falling in. Our yard is handicap accessible. There are no stairs to climb. The entrance to the backyard is a flat grassy area. The gate leading to the back yard is wide enough for a wheelchair or power chair. The yard has a slight incline, but there are no major obstacles that would prevent a wheelchair from moving around. We are located in Sykesville, MD which is about 30 mins from Baltimore and Columbia. 15 minutes from Owings Mills, Ellicott City, and Westminster.
