55This was our second visit to this spot. My friend and I let our dogs have fun playing frisbee and ball. It’s a really nice shaded, private yard. Very safe to let your dogs wander and play. Toys and water provided too. We recommend!
55It was a perfect Spring day for my pup to run free in a beautiful location. Thank you for the water bowl, toys, and treats.
55Excellent location and welcoming host! My pup enjoyed roaming and exploring (aka sniffing) and sampling a little bit of the grass. Well stocked - water, treats, toys, and waste bags at the ready, and hand sanitizer and chairs for the humans. The fence is solid and a good height (my pup can be a jumper), so I didn't need to worry about him getting out. The lawn and yard is well-maintained and easy to access. A great experience for the both of us!
55Great location for our dog to run around and lots of space, she had balls for him to play with. Shady enough that our dog didn’t get too hot, great place!
55This was my first time using the service and Jennifer was a totally, gracious host!! My pups romped around happily in her large yard! She had a little cart set up with extra poop bags and treats, etc. which I thought was super thoughtful. We shall return again for sure :)
55Not only is Jennifer’s spot quiet and beautiful, it’s got so much room to run, jump and play. My puppy had such a blast — he got the zoomies multiple times and enjoyed sniffing all the new smells. We appreciated the water bowl, toys and place to put poo bags. Such a fabulous place. Thank you for having us!
55I visited Jennifer’s private property for the first time this afternoon. The property is very spacious, clean, safe, has a secure high fence with no gaps, and a beautiful deck with a bowl of water, treats and toys. My pup had plenty of space to run and explore.
55We had the best time today. Jennifer is very kind. And so super friendly. I love the communication and the attention she gave us. We are already discussing when we can come back to visit again. The yard is so spacious and lots of hidden nooks and crannies to sniff and hide. Our dogs had a blast . Cannot say enough about our visit.
55This is a beautiful property. It is completely fenced in and very safe for your dog. With 2 acres, our dog was able to run around all he wanted. The property owner was very nice and made us feel welcome. I highly recommend this Snifspot!
55Great yard, lots of spots for my dog to explore and the fence was fully secure (I have a 43lb escape artist dog). We will be back!

Location

West Chester, Pennsylvania

Description

Beautiful, safe, fully fenced, 2 acre yard for your dog or dogs to run free, play fetch, or just explore and sniff out this new environment! Mostly grass, some trees and shrubs and hilly areas. In the distance, enjoy the gorgeous, peaceful view of the Brandywine River valley!

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

No hazards in our yard. However, note there is a pool within the property grounds, but there is a separate metal fence around the pool so it can be closed off to pets. Also, there is a new, super strong cover over the pool during the off season-so there wouldn’t be an issue if your dog went into that area.

Historic and scenic property with natural barriers

I own 11+ acres in West Chester (bordering Downingtown), although I’m currently offering access to the 4.5 acres that is not fully forested. The side of the property you’ll be enjoying has the mill which was built in the 1760s and converted into a home in the 1970s. This strip of land is bordered by a creek on the one side, and a millrace on the other. The millrace is where the water used to run when the mill was operating many moons ago. Both the creek and millrace have water, although the creek has proven to be much more alluring to visiting dogs. The deepest area in the creek is approximately 8ft. There is a bench there for you to sit and enjoy the view while your dog swims in the water. There is another, more private area, where your dog can get easy access to the creek water. I can provide you with a chair to enjoy this area, and will likely already have it there upon your arrival. There are steep embankments for both the creek and the millrace so it would be an effort for your dog to cross them to “escape.” At the end of my 4.5 acre property, the land comes to a peninsula where the millrace and creek meet to become one body of water. This peninsula serves as a natural barrier although my friend’s young German Shepherd did jump out into this water and after a deer on one frightful day. Fortunately, we got him home/back but I think it’s prudent for me to disclose this harrowing event for the safety of your fur baby. There is an outdoor stone patio where you and your pup(s) can relax in the shade. Here you’ll find a filled water dish for your pup(s) to enjoy and a trashcan for your dog waste. If past dog visitors are any indication of future visits, your pup(s) will likely be thirsty from all the exploring, good smells and open land to run and play. I have one of those tennis ball throwing devices that help you throw a ball super far that you’re welcome to use too. I ask that you don’t encourage your pup(s) to chase after the wildlife here, not just for their sake, but for the safety of your pup(s) too. I think the hawks might have put a dent in the small wildlife around here. You won’t see many small animals like squirrels or bunnies, although you are likely to see deer. If your dog is a young/strong “chaser” you might want to visit with a leash. You’ll also find less snuggly wildlife here like snakes and ticks. I ask that you use your best judgement in supervising your dog(s) and be sure to check them for ticks before leaving. Of course at your first visit, I’ll give you a tour of the layout with your dog leashed to ensure your comfortability with the space. I’d ask you to kindly replace the raft in the creek should your visit cause it to pop. For future consideration: I have about 7.5 more acres of land (on the other side of Harmony Hill Rd) that is forested, rather secluded, and also bordered by the creek. Here you’ll find the remnants of the dam that used to feed the mill, and some amazing water landscapes including large rocks and crystal clear water. I’m slowly trying to establish a walking trail in this area but it’s been hard keeping up with all the overgrowth. I’d be open to bartering where you would help cut back the trail overgrowth in exchange for your dog enjoying the forested area.
