55My dog and I absolutely love this spot.
The Host is nice and the area is always clean!
My pup is able to get so much energy and exercise in while charging the ball here! They have a tire full of tennis balls, as well as a ball launcher you can use. Kalista T.

55Space is great, owner is very communicative. Despite being by a canyon it was very clean and well cared for. The ground is hard and there are small rocks to be cautious of when playing fetch with your pup! There isn’t any grass or turf to cushion their pads if they like to slide like one of mine. Not a lot of shade so if you have a pup sensitive to the heat I would recommend going in the afternoon when it’s cooler so you can enjoy the full hour. Would definitely follow directions on when to unleash your dog, the hill is pretty steep and you want to take your time! Overall good first experience and would rent again!Kaitlin R.

55My dog absolutely loved this place! We live in an apartment so he’s never been able to roam a yard freely until today. There was seating for us, so I was able to do a bit of homework while my boyfriend played with our pup. We will definitely be back!Esmeralda C.

55Brought my dogs and they had so much fun we didn’t make it the full hour. There’s an abundance of tennis balls and things to sniff. The place is well kept and no foxtails were seen. They had a blast chasing the ball up the hill and back! I have 2 large dogs (90 lbs and 120lbs and a 55lbs foster) and there was enough room To explore and exercise and I was not worried about them getting out anywhere. Susan A.

55The cutest spot!! Looooots of room for my dog to run, and relaxing space for the pawrents. The yard was well kept and they had so many amenities like toys and water readily available. Beautiful view too! Living in the city, it’s hard to find a place to let my reactive dog loose. Will definitely be back :) Gabbi M.

55A lovely spot. This is my second visit and it’s really set up perfectly for sniffspot visitors! We loved playing with the toys and having the dog run up and down the hill to tire him out. Kiddie pool was amazing and we really appreciated somewhere shady to sit and enjoy tunes. Rory G.
