55My dog loved this Sniffspot!! She’s obsessed. There was a water bowl, poop bags, and a big rubber ball that she played with for almost the whole hour.
55One of my go-to sniffspots! There are always poop bags, fresh water, toys and treats as well. My dog loves to play here :)
55Great place! Appreciated having a nice shady spot for my older dog to lounge in while my younger dog ran around :)
55We had so much fun! The covered area was great since it was raining lightly and it wasn’t muddy. Stella also really enjoyed watching the ducks next door.
55My dogs and I enjoyed our first visit to this Sniffspot. The yard is good for sniffers and also for humans with a very nice sitting area, owner supplied water, etc. An extra bonus was the walking trails for leashed dogs.
55What a wonderful quiet location less than 10 minutes from the center of the city! A comfortable location for humans to sit, plenty of space for the dogs to run and sniff. Will definitely be returning!
55What a wonderfully relaxing spot to allow the dogs to run and play!

Fall 2024 Updates: It's acorn drop season and our large oak tree is dropping tons of them. If your dog likes to eat stuff off the ground our yard might not be the best fit during this season. We want our pup friends to have a safe fall. We’re planning to stay open throughout the winter this year but will be closed when the ground is wet to protect our lawn and prevent muddy spots. Hi! I'm Alyssa, a rescue dog owner with a ~1/3 acre yard perfect for your dog to enjoy! We have a mix of gardens, grass, mulch, and leaf areas great for sniffing and playing fetch and a bin full of fun toys and treats. We have a special basket of small dog toys upon request. We provide cold water for humans, bug spray, and hand sanitizer. We spray our yard every 5 weeks with a natural oil mix to help reduce mosquitos, fleas, and ticks. Reactive dog owners should note that our neighbors on both sides have dogs that may or may not be outside during your visit. They are all friendly but will probably bark to say hello. (No dogs live in the yard with the chain link which is newly covered) We provide a bucket of extra treats to help with training and distraction. Our girl loves a "sniffari" where you hide treats around the yard to sniff out. ⭐️ Important notes ⭐️ 🐶 All dogs must be FULLY vaccinated (Rabies, Parvo, Bordetella, DHPP) Please do not book unless you are sure your dog has all their shots. Puppies less than 4 months old that are still building up vaccines should stay at home. 🐕‍🦺 Dogs MUST be leashed when entering and exiting the yard. Our neighbor across the street has a few outdoor cats we want to keep safe and our neighbors walk their dogs on the street. 🍃 Please do not let your dog eat or chew any of the plants in the yard. No excessive digging. 🌻 Please do not enter the gated garden area on the other side of the house. We keep our quail coop and turtle enclosure in this area and don't want them startled. Feel free to look in from the gate though. 🍺 Per Sniffspot's rules, no alcohol is allowed, and please no smoking. 🚩 We reserve the right to ban any guests who break these rules. Follow and tag us on Instagram for updates and promo code giveaways @SniffspotRVA_Alyssa for your first tagged story, post or reel we'll give you a $5 promo code
