Our dogs had so much fun! The pool was lovely and Host provided toys, a dryer, towels, etc. Even a Welcome sign for Lil Buddy and Pepper .... we will definitely recommend to others and also be back for more visits! (Sorry to the Host if you heard me and my brother yelling at each other when we first arrived lol) - Def a Must-Sniff!

Our favorite spot! We love the photo opp set up and our dog LOVES the pool and having so much room to explore in a quiet and fenced in area. I love the personal touch that they add with our pups name on the welcome sign every time and they always have fresh water dish, poop bags, toys, sunscreen, water bottles, etc. everything you can need! All clean and ready to go everytime.

Great spot to teach your dog how to swim. It was the first time my dog "jumped" in the water on her own by her choice!! ☺️. To give you a reference, I'm 5'4 and the shallow area came up just below my knees, so just basically at my dog's neck/shoulder region (she is a 20lb wire-haired terrier mix). It was great having a large shallow area plus an extra shallow step in the corner. It made my dog feel much more confident. The only thing I would suggest is to make sure you are comfortable with the temperature, and if not, tell the owner about 4 hours in advance so there is time to heat it more if necessary.

The best time, Felicia was so sweet and her backyard is absolutely a dog’s paradise. She even made my fur babies their own ornaments! So fun to get to experience and will absolutely be back.

Super friendly host and great pool. There were lots of toys for my dog to play with and plenty of space to run around and sniff. Super clean pool too.

What a great spot for a bday party! Our dogs had a blast in the pool. Felicia was the best hostess and really went all out for the festivities. Thank you again for sharing your lovely yard!

This place is exactly as advertised and more. We went for my dogs 8th birthday and booked a second dog to accompany and they had the absolute best time. The pool was pristine and had great jumping points for the dogs as well as easy entry platforms for dogs that didn’t want to make big jumps. Great area for them to run around, play, swim and have the best time. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Felicia was super helpful in accommodating a small puppy party for my dog’s fifth birthday! The space was perfect for my pup and her friends to run around and swim. We can’t wait to be back again soon!

Gorgeous property that was perfectly set up for our arrival! Our pup had such a fun time swimming in the well kept pool. We will be sure to come back!

My two pups had a fun time exploring the backyard. It might be a little small for bigger dogs that really need a good run, but was perfect for my two. There was a decent size ball pit that they both enjoyed sniffing and rummaging around in and a small slide that my chihuahua enjoyed climbing. There was plenty of shade and sitting for the humans too! The host was great! She met me when we arrived and let us in the side gate. Said to text if we needed anything. Artificial grass was clean! There were some milkbones in a bowl and small waters for the humans. Also a large dish filled with water for the pups. Happy tuckered out dogs and a happy human!

Gracious hosts and a lovely pool. We loved it! Side gate was open for us with a welcoming sign letting us know we were in the right place. Hosts made sure we had everything we needed. Thank you for sharing your pool with us. We will be back! A special treat to get to swim with the pups for sure.

Lovely host; thank you for accommodating us on this hot day! Property is exactly as pictured and described, we had a GREAT time and we will be back for sure! Thank you!

We had the best time ever, this was a terrific spot to take our bored and hot dogs to get out of the heat wave and still get some exercise. Everything was fantastic, clean and welcoming. The host was fabulous and the grounds were perfect for our needs. Great Sniffspot venue!!

Absolutely beautiful backyard with no shortage of areas for your dog to explore. Even better than pictured, and you can tell the pool is extremely well maintained. Plenty of shade and places to sit for people. Tennis balls and poop bags were provided, just make sure you don’t forget a towel like I did. If your dog likes to swim, go here immediately; you won’t regret it!

What a lovely backyard and lovely host! This is our new favorite place to be as evidenced by the snoring dog at my feet. Thanks so much again!

Great open space with a hill for the dogs to run in. Safe, secure fenced in area with water and shade. I would definitely rent again.

Great backyard for my two babies. They had a good time running up and down the hill. Rachel is a great host and very responsive. Thank you for sharing your space with us.

This was my first time ever using a sniff spot and my dogs and I had a really good experience! I’m a dog trainer in the area and it was nice to have a safe place for my dogs to meet another client’s dog; neutral territory, off leash, and with no other dogs. It was exactly what we needed and Rachel was super responsive and kind. Only comment I would say is that it’s off street parking, but you can’t park there on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month between 10-3pm. I did not know this so it was a little stressful for my client and I to have to move our cars a couple of times when we heard the sweepers coming.

Second time here and we had just as much fun!!! It was a great yard for me and my pups to do some training and playing in. Rachel was flexible, kind, and super understanding. Thank you again so much Rachel!!

Everything was as described. Our two pups had a great time running around and traversing the little hill in the back. Nice and shady for those hot days. I will be back!
