55Great small spot but still with plenty of room to run and explore! Clean, fresh water, and chairs for pet parents!
55It was so nice and peaceful! My baby girl is good and sleep now. We will be back for sure!
55Beautiful backyard! We loved the hammock and our dog had the BEST time. Snacks and dog treats were a nice touch. 🥰
55One of the best SniffSpot experiences I have had in the last 3 years. Had 4 humans and one dog. It was great. The neighborhood was beautiful. The spot was well shaded and there was water and treats provided (both furry and human). The fencing was completely intact around the perimeter. The lawn was in great condition. The location was easy to find and the parking was obvious to spot. I plan on visiting again when I am in the area.
55Your property is absolutely beautiful this time of year! I could lay in the hammock all day enjoying it.
55Beautiful fenced in area with lots of things to sniff and check out. Very comfortable for humans too.
55Safe to say she had a great time lol
55Beautiful! Perfect size, secure, and safe. My kids loved exploring every inch and I loved relaxing on the hammock. The owner set out snacks for not just my kids but for me too. Super sweet! They also had lots of toys.
55Very cute, clean spot with good fencing! It was easy to find and the host was kind enough to leaves snacks for both me and my dog
55The yard was a perfect size so I could keep my eyes on Scooby Doo at all times…he’s a two year old golden so even when you think he can’t find something to get into he can! Host had snacks and drinks for both of us which was much appreciated. He did keep going and sitting at back door (because he’s a golden he thinks everyone should come and pet him lol). Yard was clean and well kept…will definitely take him back to this spot!!

Location

Chester, Virginia

Description

This spacious, gently sloped yard is surrounded by tall mature trees, offering plenty of shade, fresh air, and a peaceful forest feel. The open, grassy area gives dogs room to run, sniff, and explore, while the quiet wooded backdrop creates a calm, natural environment perfect for decompression or playtime. There's a hammock strung between two sturdy trees for human relaxation, plus a patio area with outdoor seating. The yard is set behind a cozy home and feels tucked away from the road, giving you and your pups a sense of privacy and safety. Multiple dogs can comfortably enjoy the space at once, whether they prefer roaming, sniffing along the tree line, or chasing a ball across the lawn. It's an inviting, quiet, dog-friendly spot ideal for off-leash fun, training sessions, or simply enjoying nature together.

Quiet Shaded Oasis in Midlothian | Fully Fenced Private Play

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Welcome to our quiet, private backyard retreat located at the end of a low-traffic residential cul-de-sac in Midlothian. Perfect for solo dogs, small breeds, and pups looking for a safe, relaxed place to sniff, stretch their legs, and play off-leash without the stress of crowded public dog parks. The Space: • Fully enclosed yard featuring open grass, mature shade trees, and a concrete patio path. • Plenty of room for fetch, scent-work, and relaxing in the shade. • Direct, private side-gate access for complete contact-free entry. Amenities Provided: • Fresh water and clean water bowls. • Waste station with scooper, waste bags, and a covered trash bin. • Patio seating for humans to relax while pups explore. Safety & Fence Details (Please Review): • The perimeter is fully enclosed with a mix of tall privacy fencing and a standard 4-foot picket fence. • Best suited for: Small to medium dogs (under 45 lbs) and calm, low-jumping breeds. Not recommended for known high-jumpers or fence-climbers. • Because parts of the fence are open picket, dogs can occasionally see neighboring yards or passing cars—please supervise reactive pups. House Rules: • Up to 2 dogs per booking (from the same household). • Please pick up after your dog using the provided bags and bin. • Keep dogs leashed until fully inside the secured gate. We maintain a 15-minute buffer between all bookings to ensure you and your dog never cross paths with another guest. Enjoy your visit!

Close to 1/2acre of mowed grass with a good mix of sunshine and shade, and plenty of dog smells to enjoy! Fully fenced with 4' picket fencing, 3 gates with latches. I do a poop scoop at least 2-3x weekly so I can't guarantee spotless perfection but I'll do my best to clean up before scheduled visits- please do the same:) There is ample seating for human guests and a table. Patio gets sun from midday to early evening, 2 umbrellas provide shade.
