55Great Spot! Clean and stunningly dry despite a very wet week. Lots of room for a big dog to run, TONS of toys already present, nice secure fencing, lovely host.
55It was great! The property is lovely and safe!
55A great place for the dogs and you. The host goes over and beyond to make your visit perfect. The large yard with lots to sniff and room to run!
55You can tell this sniffspot owner is an animal lover! Frankie had a great time running in this space today. Yard is well kept and flat with ample room for zoomies! Toys, poop scoop and water bowl were provided. You can hear and see some neighbor dogs in yards nearby but the fence is safe and secure with lots of shrubs around the border. Cute nook off of a corner street, easy to find!
55We love it, haven’t found another spot that compares. We always enjoy our time here, dogs and humans.
55Was a great yard, my dog was finally able to run safely around and smell all the smells! Definitely recommend!
55Pups had a great time!
45The Host is wonderful and is eager for Feedback on was to make his spot even better. It is very secure to the road and has open areas to run..a huge pond which my dogs loved to swim in ...as well as wooded trails. The trails are very rough and in some areas yöu will go thru Branches. Its a diamond in the making. We will be back and i see this spot only getting better.
55Our favorite place to let the dogs play while i can relax...unlike a dog park.
55Really is an oasis!

Description

Almost a half an acre completely fenced-in yard (to the ground so even 5-lb dogs can’t escape) in a quiet neighborhood near 23 and Mound. Grass is kept short and natural. Never any poisonous pesticides or fertilizer used. All Natural! Seating and doggie pool available (request pool is emptied before leaving and not filled more than half or you can’t tip over to empty). No dogs in surrounding yards. Great for big and small dogs! Lots of trees and shrubbery to give you a private oasis. Please close the gate when leaving. Note: I bought my house with a large after one of my dogs was attacked at a dog park causing 2 surgeries and very expensive vet bills. Enjoy my yard with piece of mind.

Cleanliness

97% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

Just be careful if you see any mushrooms pop up. I typically try to pull them out cause I don’t want my dogs eating them either.

Hi! I wanted to try this and allow people to use my nice natural yard. I love seeing dogs so happy as they run and play in a fully-fenced safe yard free of pesticides. They are so happy … and when dogs are happy, I am happy. I bought a small house with a nice yard after one of my dogs was attacked at a dog park for playing fetch and had her side ripped open which needed 2 surgeries. After that I was done with dog parks and bought a big yard.
