55Our dog Frankie totally enjoyed his time at your backyard Sniffspot again. He loves the pond! Thank you so very much for your gracious hospitality.
55The area was beautiful! The creek running through the property was a huge hit with my pooches, along with the pond. It was a large space with plenty of room to romp. Awesome chatting with Monica and the kiddos too. Thank you!
55The spot was well labeled and a beautiful space to let our dogs take a break.
55Fantastic place for cosmo to run around. He was so interested in the chickens at the end but I’m glad the fence is there I don’t think he’s seen chickens before haha! Beautiful pond!! Love the koi!
55Beautiful space, we will return!
55Such a wonderful visit for a human and dog! Thank you for hosting us again our favorite spot!
55Penny loved Bolte's Backyard! We can't wait to go back soon
55What a beautiful backyard with a huge koi pond. My new rescue dog Snooky loved the water! She jumped out and did zoomies. Unfortunately she also loves chasing squirrels and there were lots of them so I had to watch her very carefully. Will come back for sure!
55Amazing place! It is so peaceful, the landscaping is gorgeous, and you really don't feel like you're in the city at all! There are so many toys and sticks available, and the pond entry/exit was easy and safe for Mabel. She absolutely loved it and wore herself out. We hope to be back soon!
55Love the pond!

Hazards

HOST NOTE

There is a pond with fish and plants. Dogs are allowed in the pond as long as they don’t eat the fish or plants 🙂. Also, please try to keep dogs out of the bog area of the pond which is where there is a filtration system. It is located at the far end and has only rocks and plants in it. There is short fencing around the outside of the bog. We’ve also had some issues with dogs biting or scratching at the liner, so please watch when then are in the pond🙂. There is a vegetable garden and a chicken run that are off limits. This spot has a water feature, make sure to review these guidelines for visiting spots with water before visiting: https://help.sniffspot.com/article/167-how-to-keep-your-dog-safe-around-pools-and-water There are NO LIGHTS in the yard, so if your booking is towards sunset, please bring flashlights and lighted collars to stay safe.
