Everything was as Megan said it would be. It’s a huge, securely fenced grass property with a bucket of toys. Lots of room to run and play catch! Hi

My pup loved the spot, lots of room to play! Had no issues getting in or out, there was a lot of shade for him to lay in which was nice for him to rest. Will definitely be back!

What a gr8 concept and place! My handsome four legged buddy, Ranger, was having an out of body experience with the sheer joy of being out doors in Frank's safe beautiful area. Ranger was so excited and happy. Ranger spent the first half hour walking the perimeter stopping every so often just to sniff the grass, wild flowers, and trees. The happiness Ranger exhibited connecting with nature inside Frank's clean safe environment was as visible as the smile on his face. Yes, later he played some fetch. Near the hour's end of his first, of many visits to come, Ranger just laid down on the grass near me a little tired, utterly relaxed, calm and happy taking in all Frank's beautiful grass and gentle sloping area. What a wonderful well kept property allowing Ranger on a Spring day to exercise, play, relax and enjoy being a loved dog!

This large, beautiful, fenced in yard was perfect for my rowdy pitbulls! The fence is very high and in perfect condition. The toys are big dog appropriate, and waste removal was easy. My dogs had a great time!

Once again, Frank’s fully fenced Frolick was fantastic. Delilah brought a different friend and they had a great time.

My dog loved this experience. The yard was fully fenced in and large enough for him to run around and do all of his favorite things ☺️ The water bowl and toys were an added bonus!

Great spot for the pups to run! Will definitely be going back. Everything was exactly as I expected per the description. Thanks again! The girls had a great time and we hope to come back sometime soon! It’s not always easy having rescues who are sensitive to other dogs but people like you who open up your property make it just a little easier. Thanks again!! little easier. The joy of seeing our girls sprint freely to their perfect little hearts desires was absolutely priceless. We had to drag them to our car (because they didn’t want to leave), but once they were in the car they were sleeping and continued sleeping throughout the rest of the night! Our dogs were singing, “The best day” by George Straight and meaning every word all thanks to you!!

Fencing very secure all way around with very nice sturdy gate. Honestly more dry than I'd expect it after all the rain we got this week (but your dogs are gonna get dirty running and playing in any grass, it's inevitable) really pretty too! They had a blast

I visited this Sniffspot with my dog today and had a fantastic time. The private fenced yard was easy to navigate and very clean, which made it a comfortable and safe environment for my furry friend to play in. There was plenty of sunny and shaded space for my dog to run around and explore, and the picnic table and bench were great spots to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather. I also appreciated the dog toy basket and easily accessible trash cans, which added to the overall convenience and comfort of our visit. We will definitely be back to this wonderful Sniffspot, and highly recommend it to any dog owners looking for a great place to play and relax!

Perfect spot for our city/apartment dogs to frolic around in! Fully fenced and safe. A little muddy but that’s to be expected especially in the spring.

My boys loved it so much. My lab is a reactive dog and he just needs to run and explore and feel safe. This was a perfect spot. We will definitely be coming back.

Lulu loved SniffSpot. It did turn out that it was raining and cold so we left a little early but it was nice that she could wander for a while. Frank's spot was very well maintained and clean. Thank you.

We had a great time at Megan’s sniff spot! It is a nice big open fenced in area for the dogs to run and play. There is a bench for humans to sit on with a water bowl and water available. Parking was a breeze and there was a bin with some tennis balls as well. We did go on a particularly muddy day so our pups did need a bath but it’s completely understandable and expected this time of year. The fence is tall and secure. It was a nice secluded quiet area away from any humans or other dogs. We will definitely be back!

Great fenced in area and far enough back from the street that it’s not distracting! I have a 7 month old German Shepherd and she is NOT easy to tire out. By the end of our hour she was laying happily at the top of the yard enjoying basking in the sun ♥️ Cleanliness overall was great except for one spot that could’ve easily been missed! The yard has a hill at the top and slopes down which Scout thought was tons of fun! This does lead to a muddier area at the back of the yard but honestly, so worth it for her to have different terrains than our very flat backyard. We will definitely be back!

Nice large yard, easily accessed off of the main road. Yard runs a bit downhill so make sure to be prepared for mud.

Franks is our favorite Sniffspot. I have 4 Siberian huskies that love to run. Franks is fully fenced and secure. It’s always clean and the hill really wears my dogs out. I also have 1 dog who is reactive so we are not able to go to dog parks. Franks is perfect. I highly recommend this spot!

This was an amazing spot for my reactive puppy to get some energy out. Lots of room to run around and the host provided plenty of toys to keep my pup occupied! Fence seemed very secure. Whenever I am back in the area I will make sure to book this spot again!!
