    Great yard, a decent amount of poop in the yard. That doesn’t bother me but in case others are concerned.

  • Kellie M., Jan 28, 2023

    We had to leave after ten minutes because the neighbor's dogs are reactive and visible through the fence. There was also poop throughout the yard.

    Overall, this is a good spot. The sloped backyard was fantastic for tiring out my dog- who loves to play frisbee fetch. Up and down the hill, over and over again- mission accomplished. :) Plenty of places to sniff and places for us to sit.

  • Megan P., Sep 17, 2022

    Great spot! Gate secure. The owner is very chill which I appreciated.

  • Dee B., Sep 2, 2022

    Secure fencing and lots of room to run.

  • Kellie M., Jul 31, 2022

    Such a pretty yard! Lots of space to roam.

  • Shelly Y., Jul 8, 2022

    Large slanted yard with great fencing. Plenty of room to play and run. Seating and a bench swing. Plenty of parking, easy access.

  • Elizabeth R., Jul 4, 2022

    My pup’s first SniffSpot, he had a great time! We will be back!

  • Tracie T., Jun 12, 2022

    Great place to visit. Big yard with an incline for exercise and many shady spots. I will be back.

  • Adam L., Jun 5, 2022

    Had a great time romping around this Sniffspot! It is also largely on an incline so if you can get your pup to run up and down, can make them extra tired!

Hello! My wife, 2 year old son, and two dogs (lab and minpin) have lived here for 5 years. We have a fully enclosed and fenced in back yard providing about a quarter of an acre for your little dog children to sniff and explore. We hope you have a great time!

𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 - we will be closed Saturday 3/25/23 to Wednesday, 3/29/23. These dates are tentative and subject to change or be extended. If you are an Oasis Member and would like to be notified of evening availability, let me know. 𝗗𝗘𝗦𝗖𝗥𝗜𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 - The property is just over an 𝙖𝙘𝙧𝙚 and a mix of lawn, flower beds, paths, and work/storage areas. Overall, it is fairly flat and dogs love to 𝙧𝙪𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙥𝙡𝙖𝙮 for hours at a time not to mention all the great sniffing spots. There are open areas for dogs to stretch their legs and chase each other and flowers, shade and seating for their human companion(s). There is a 𝙢𝙖𝙣-𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢 in the back that depending on rainfall, may be running full or just at a trickle. It is ideal for your pup to explore and cool off in. The yard offers plenty of great 𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙥𝙤𝙩 opportunities to take tons of pictures throughout the various seasons. The yard is a 𝘾𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙚𝙙 𝙒𝙞𝙡𝙙𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚 𝙃𝙖𝙗𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙩®, we are trying to help nature where and when we can. The flower beds have been designed for local critters - birds, turtles, pollinators, etc so absolutely no killing of any bees, butterflies, spiders, turtles, snakes, birds or other wildlife you may find. If you can, take a cool pic to share - we'd love to see it. Do a photo safari. 𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗠 - This is a man-made stream that that typically runs in the warmer months and is initially filled with either city water or rainfall. That said, Mother Nature adds to it so we do recommend your pup have his/her 𝙇𝙚𝙥𝙩𝙤 vaccine. The stream is usually shutdown in the winter months and some water remains at the end to help support the frogs overwinter. Please do not allow digging or rough play in the stream - we want to keep it in good shape for all our guests to enjoy and avoid costly repairs. If it is important to your visit that the stream is running and at what level (full/trickle) please reach out to the Host to check its status. 𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗞𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗦 & 𝗛𝗢𝗟𝗜𝗗𝗔𝗬𝗦 - typically set for 1 hour appointments. If you are interested in a longer appointment, please reach out and we'll see if we can accommodate. 𝗗𝗢𝗚 𝗟𝗜𝗠𝗜𝗧 - Our site is set for a 3 dog limit. If you would like to bring additional dogs, please email me. The request will be considered on a case by case basis. Note, there are some spots at the bottom of the fence a small dog (cat size) might be able to get under - they are meant for our cats. If you are bringing a small dog, let me know and we can block the openings ahead of time. 𝗘𝗫𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗦 - Extras will change depending on the season and if you don't see something you might like added, let us know. 𝗠𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗣 is currently full. A membership could save you $6, $24, or more per month depending on the Membership package created. Memberships can be a bit confusing so please reach out if you have any questions - we'll do our best to answer them and help find the right package for you. Please come and enjoy our private little spot.
