Nikkole’s place was great! There is one hole in the fence that a small dog could wiggle through, but I have two big dogs so it wasn’t an issue for us. There’s plenty of room to run and our pups loved to romp on the grass. Only suggestion would be a bench to sit, but we were playing with the pups and didn’t mind it too much. We’ll be back!
Host replied: Thanks so much! I'm going to pick up some chairs and a table when I get back in town next week. I'll grab a hose and a doggy pool too! Hope to see you again.
This is a great spot! There was plenty of room for my dog to run around and he had a great time. If you have a little dog, then this may not be the spot for you because there are some areas a small dog could slip through. We do not have that issue, we’ve got a big boy. The back fence is also chain link, so you can see through and those neighbors do have a dog (see photos). I was nervous at first because my dog can be leash reactive, but the other dog was so chill- didn’t bark at all. They touched noses once and my dog went right back to playing. It wasn’t an issue for us, and we will be back, but I mention that in case you have a reactive dog that may not like being able to see another dog! Overall great space for us, just consider the above when renting!
Location is perfect and my dogs had a blast running around. I’m looking forward to seeing the development of this space! My recommendation would be a chair or bench for people to sit.
Great city-lot sized yard! Pretty much all grass. Both neighbors that share a fence with the lot have dogs so if your pup is reactive be warned!
The long side yard is a great space for our greyhound to stretch his legs. This new Sniff Spot is a bit rough around the edges (literally and figuratively), but it’s a great location for us and I look forward to coming back and seeing how the owner develops the space! 💚
The gate would not lock and my dog got under the gate twice and almost ran off. There was also some trash in the space — my dog found what appeared to be a license plate with a rotting mouse on it. We had to leave after 15 minutes because it did not feel like a safe and secure environment for my dog. Before this can be ready to be a Sniffspot the gate and fence issues need to be fixed.
Host replied: I'm so sorry. I just went over today and installed some screening to block off the iron fence attached to the next building. My dogs are fat and it didn't even occur to me. I also bought a chain and lock so the gate can be closed and secured during your stay. If you want to come back for a freebie on me please contact me. I need feedback and am working to improve the space.
