King of Cary
***Naturally treat our yard in the summer so that our guests can enjoy As a rescuer, I totally understand some dogs just can't do social (myself, most of the time too), so dog park is a No. SniffSpot is an option for those special pooches. Quiet private Oasis for guests, private 100% fenced yard, sloped grass yard with 3 patio area. A lot to sniff, a lot of stairs to work out those legs. Very clean yard since I pick up after my own dogs daily. You can sit and relax or enjoy your book or bring a date. Squirrels and birds will make your visit more exciting. We're only 3 mins from Fenton, 2 mins from Downtown Cary. Sometimes I provide water (If I'm home and only one booking) you can get water from garden hose just make sure to shut off the faucet, water rate in Cary is outrageous 😳 Please msg us if you don't see any availability 😀8

3 wooded acres backing up to gamelands
We have 3.3 wooded acres set back from the cul de sac and we back up to Duke Progress public game land. Previous owners created a trail out there that connects to a power line cut and 4x4 trails. You can hike for miles if you want and probably won’t see another person. We have a doggy paradise on our 3+ acres.

Huge fully fenced yard to explore!
We installed this fence for our reactive dog, and unexpectedly said goodbye to him last year. It's now the perfect place for you and your pup! There isn't much to it, which makes it a great spot for dogs. There are places to sniff and explore, and very quiet neighbors. You can park in the cul-de-sac and make your way to the back. Easy, large, private, and pretty hard to destroy.

A hose for water is always available, as well as a dog bowl, and a large 86" diameter, 1ft deep dog pool can be set up and filled with enough notice, as it takes quite a while to fill.

FiFi's Dog Park • 2 Acre Fully Fenced • Private • In Lillington
Step into a spacious, playful retreat designed for pups of all personalities. Our 2-acre playground is perfect for sniffing, running, zoomies, and joyful exploration. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ‼️Updates as of Nov. 2025. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 🐾 Smaller but just as fun! Our SniffSpot is now 2 acres instead of 3, as we’ve set aside space for some new community projects we’re really excited about. There’s still plenty of open room for zoomies, fetch, and off-leash fun! 🌲 Privacy updates for reactive pups We’ve planted 20 beautiful Green Giant trees (5 feet tall) to create future privacy. While they grow, your pup might still see people coming and going — but we’re working to make it cozier and calmer every season. 💧 Hydration & Essentials Everything You Need for a Paw-fect Visit: Fresh water, poop bags, and toys are provided so your furry friends can focus on fun, not fuss. *** Once you book, you and your dog(s) will be the only ones there during your time. The “spot” becomes unavailable for everyone when you reserve it. Only one person “rents” the space at a time! Sniffspot automatically builds in a 30 min buffer between sessions as well so there is no chance of overlap. ***
