MAY 19TH 2025 - REOPENED Hello guests! We are re-opening our spot - so many people have reached out, it's been hard to not allow bookings. Although the app is still problematic, we will work with you to find a solution. Please understand our slow responses are due to the app. People have been showing up around the lake - please be aware of this! Does your dog love to run? Love to swim? Love to chill in the shade? We have it all! Enjoy 3 acres of fenced in land to run around, a private lake for you pup to swim in or do some dock diving, and a bamboo forest perfect for getting some shade and feeling at peace. We have an active train that can run nearby twice a day. Most dogs don't mind, but if yours does, be mindful that it can show up (: Two people per dog please! Any additional people should be added under "extras".

Welcome to our Delaware oasis, a 10-acre testament to nature’s beauty on a horse farm. Our family’s heart holds a special place for my first dog, Cody, a spirited soul who taught us resilience. If Sniffspot existed then, it would’ve been a haven for us, a place to learn and grow without the fear of hills and unpredictability. In his memory, we offer this space – a peaceful realm for training, exploration, and connection, just like Cody would have loved.

Large & well kept private off leash dog park. Conveniently located to 141, Faulkland Rd & Kirkwood Hwy. We are happy to provide toys for play or balls for fetching. We welcome you to pull up a chair or relax in the hammock while your dogs get exercise. We have three bird feeders so there’s lots of birds to watch, you are also welcome to feed our rooster or chickens. We also run a dog daycare so if you like we usually have other dogs for your dog to play and socialize with. Our grass is treated for fleas and ticks naturally but we do ask for our visiting dogs to be on a flea and tick preventative to keep everyone safe and comfortable. You are welcome to use the fire pit on chilly days. We also have a galvanized tub for washing your pets paws or even bathing if you like.

Private Dog Yard with Safe Play – Funds Donated to Dog Charities! Looking for a safe, loving space where your pup(s) can run and play freely? Our yard is the perfect place for dogs to explore, burn off energy, and enjoy some off-leash fun—all while you relax in peace. What to Expect: Exclusive Use: Your dog(s) will have the entire yard to themselves! Please be mindful of your booking time to ensure a smooth transition for all visitors, especially if the dog before you prefers solitude. Amenities: There's a Sniffspot bin to the right after coming in the gate. Help yourself to whatever is there. Balls, water, hand sanitizer, etc. Need cushions for the deck chairs? Feel free to grab them from the container by the grill on the deck. How to Access: Park in the driveway near the fence. Open the gate (using the silver latch) and step into your private dog haven! Dispose of waste in the black trash bin near the garage. (Look for the Sniffspot sign, though it might shift occasionally!) Special Accommodations: If you or your dog have specific needs, let us know so we can ensure your visit is as enjoyable as possible.

This spot is fenced and spacious with lots of shade and places to dig. Lots of shade and space to run. Can play with or without my 4 medium dogs. Bathroom just inside the kitchen. I have a cooler of waters and sodas for purchase and always have pup water and toys. Please ensure your pet has low cut nails and do not allow scratching of the pool liner. Please add a flat pool fee of $20 as an extra if you intend to be IN the pool with your pet for supervision. This is not a public pool or pool lease or public pool but private service donation/fee for maintenance of pool ( line there added for nosy HOA) we have needed to add this to clear the pool filters, maintenance the liner and avoid large families having a pool party :) for quiet use of home space—sorry. But I do thank you. If it’s just the pet then don’t add the fee. Thank you. Let my neighbors know that my friendly coop with Sniffspot clients is a service to others and my rights with a great review of how peaceful and non disturbing it is!! If the driveway is open park on the side pls also! Thanks-USAF Disabled vet 🇺🇸

Welcome to our yard! Each pup will be greeted with a complimentary pup cup that will be in the outside freezer! I will have 3 dogs inside of my own that may get excited to see you when you arrive, but we hope you make yourself at home. We recently installed the fence just for them, so we understand the hassle of not having one of your own. I would've loved to have this app before our fence, so I kept that in mind when deciding to share our space. We have a full bar stocked with refreshments and a huge addition with seating and shade. We LOVE dogs, so any suggestions to improve our accommodations are welcome! We hope you choose to bring your companions over to play!

Welcome to our private, fully fenced backyard—your dog’s new favorite spot! This spacious, grassy yard is perfect for off-leash play, zoomies, and relaxation. The large open lawn gives pups plenty of room to run, sniff, and explore, while the tall privacy fence along the back and sides helps ensure a safe and secure environment. The space includes: • A wide, open grassy area ideal for fetch or training • Mature trees offering natural shade • String lights and poles (perfect for evening visits) • A cozy gravel patio with seating for dog parents • A quiet neighborhood setting with minimal foot traffic We love hosting friendly, well-behaved dogs and their people. Whether your pup needs to burn off energy, practice recall, or just enjoy a peaceful change of scenery, our yard is here to welcome you.

Welcome to our backyard! You would never know it from the street but behind my house is a hidden gem in the city. It is fully fenced and dogs large and small cannot escape. It has multiple areas to sniff and things to look at. For 3/4 of the year we are beautifully shaded. Dogs can run hang out but mostly they just love to sniff.

Come visit this private, fully gated yard in the city. A cement walkway to the right of the house brings you to the 3ft high gate featuring two entrances. Within there is a patio with table and chairs, grassy area for your fur baby, and pole incase your pup requires a tether. For patrons booking 2hrs or more, feel free to use the grill provided you clean and empty it prior to the end of your stay. There are no neighboring dogs to worry about. The neighbors are friendly and may even ask if they can give your dog a treat.

The yard is huge and plenty of space for dogs to run and play. The backyard is essentially broken up into two sections with the pool in the middle. Dogs are not allowed in the pool during the season. If your dog tends to jump in pools on their own, please do not request my space. I have toys and agility equipment for the dogs to use. Water bowls and water access will be available for use.

A small yard, but enclosed for peace of mind. Let your pup run free for a brief moment when you can’t make it to the park.

Fully fenced in back yard in a quiet neighborhood.

Fully fenced town house yard. Good for small dogs. Good for dogs recovering from a health issue but will still have outside time. If you want to work (with wifi) and don't want your dog to go to far but still enjoy outside time.....this is the place for you! Bags provided for picking up your dogs poo. Water bowl next to outdoor hose for a drink. Wifi available and a table with chairs provided for the humans! Something new and something different for a small outting!

Our backyard has land good enough for 4 paws approved zoomies and a nice shaded seat for the parent(s) to relax.
