55This is an amazing place for Louie to run with his friends! Great place for humans to enjoy the view. Michele is great to work with and always responsive! You won't regret the experience
55We absolutely looooved being able to spend the afternoon at Michele's property. The directions were straight forward and easy to follow and we had so much space to run around around sniff around. Will absolutely coming back again.
55Always a blast to go here!
55Such a fun place for a dog to run. There are sheep and goats and cows and mules in nearby pastures, providing dog with top notch smelling opportunities. A perfect sniff spot for sure! PS We saw lots of bluebirds—I suspect these pastures would be equally enchanting for birdwatchers.
55This was such an awesome experience. This was our first time using the app so we were a bit lost at how things worked. Michele was so patient and just guided us right along to where we were supposed to go! My dog LOVED it, definitely will be back!
55The dogs love it here! So much open pasture to run and roll in. Such a beautiful location. Michele is a great host! We will be regulars.
55Michele is a wonderful host and we loved the beautiful pasture. Fully contained and lots of room for the dogs to run and run and run. This is an absolutely gorgeous setting. There are several fields for grazing the sheep and the drive in past the pastures and sheep is stunning. We visited on a day where it had rained heavily the whole night before and surprisingly the field was not wet. The vegetation was kept low by the sheep that graze there so there was nothing high to brush against my pants or get my shoes wet. Will definitely visit again when I'm in the area!!!
55Had a great time!! Lots of room to run!
55Wonderful visit! Huge, fully-fenced in areas for the dogs to run. Hosts were wonderful!! Will definitely try to come again soon!
55Really fun spot! We saw sheep, cows, and donkeys and my city pup was fascinated. My dog had a blast sniffing around and running through the field.

Hello! My name is Katie and we are so excited to offer our yard space to your furry best friend. My family has lived in an apartment the last two years while house hunting in Crozet, and we have learned how difficult it is to have dogs without access to a yard. Now that we are settling into our new home, we are excited to offer our space for afternoon fetch, morning zoomies, and just lounging in the sunshine. Animals just make the world a better place. You will always have complimentary access to our hammock and swing gazebo but the use of the Solo Stove is an additional fee. Please review our add ons before booking and please text me with any questions you have 571-205-8470. Come enjoy some nature time in our yard in Crozet. :) Arrival Notes: When you arrive you can park anywhere on our gravel drive away. The gate to the right of the house that goes into our garden is where you will enter. Our sunflowers are dead and an eye sore right now, but I’m letting the birds and squirrels finish up their feast of seeds. This “holding” area in the garden gives you a chance to triple check there are no lingering guests or animals in the yard. Once you are in our backyard please shut the gate behind you. Most guests enjoy hanging out in the firepit area where there are hammock swings and seating. Along the fence, you will see a spot for water, toys, and other things I thought you may need. We ask that guests not utilize our small deck near the house, so that our dogs don’t bark and disturb their stay! So far all of our guests have come a second time, so if you end up booking again, I’d love any feedback on how to make your visit extra special. Anyway, that is all for now, thanks again and enjoy the sunshine!! ~Katie
