    Always great!

  • Lisa J., Sep 3, 2023

    We had so much fun! Olive loved sniffing all the things, and rolling in a few of them! Thanks for giving our city dog a chance to chase some geese! We’ll definitely be back.

  • Jeremy S., Aug 26, 2023

    Had a great time at the farm and our dog loved it there! Plenty of space to run around, secure fence, water, and a few animal sightings. The host, Michelle, was great too! We'll definitely go back again.

    Host replied: Thank ewe Kimber & Jeremy for coming out & sniffing about Little Mountain farm- there’s more to sniff next time

  • Hannah J., Aug 19, 2023

    Michele is an excellent host and has a fabulously well-fenced farm! My pup loved sniffing around in the morning, but there was also plenty of shade for later in hot days. He even made friends with a cow! Appreciated her letting us sniff around. Thanks for having us!

  • RACHEL D., Aug 19, 2023

    What a find! My dogs worked their noses and their legs exploring one of the pastures on Michele's beautiful farm. There were areas of sun and shade on a gentle hillside. The fence was secure. Do dress appropriately for walking in tall grass/weeds and possibly manure. We passed goats, sheep, cows, and dogs in other pastures while driving to our spot. Michele is an excellent host and so generous to share her land with other dogs and their people. We hope to visit again soon.

  • Bonnie L., Aug 15, 2023

    This is a wonderful place to take dogs! I failed to properly plan and organize which led to the host having to hurry. However, she was still extremely patient with me! I highly recommend this spot!!

  • Christine L., Aug 8, 2023

    Super friendly! Beautiful fenced in area!

  • Cindy S., Aug 3, 2023

    Love it, as always!

  • Samantha M., Jul 28, 2023

    Beautiful farm with great space for your dog to run around and explore in! Michele, the host, is super friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back again!

  • Jessica Y., Jul 11, 2023

    I visited Michele's spot for the first time today and loved it so much, I'm about to book another visit. Watching two dogs rip around freely, was awesome. Can't wait to go back!

I’m a dog trainer and I run a dog boarding/daycare from my home (hence all the different fenced spaces). When possible, daycare and boarding dogs will be taken indoors during your visit so that you and your pup can have uninterrupted time to play/work together in a quiet environment. This is not always feasible depending on the day/time of your visit and our schedule on any given day. Check in advance if your dog does not do well if they see/hear other dogs, people, or cars. The main SniffSpot is currently about 7,000 sq ft in our side field, which is perfect for running, playing fetch, working on recall and other obedience commands, and is full of smells to sniff out. You may be directed to a different spot if we NEED to use the side yard during your time slot. Coming soon: - enlarged fenced space (about 10,000 sq ft) - agility equipment - pool
