It was a good experience
The addition of the umbrella and chair made it even more enjoyable than last time. Rosey always has fun here.
We brought our 2 small dogs today and they loved it. Thereās plenty of room to run around and play and the yard was very clean and private. Our dogs arenāt the best with other pets and strangers so it was great for them to have their own private space to run around without any ādistractionsā. We brought our own toys, dog bowls, and chairs but Crystal has some there if you need them. We will definitely be back!
Brought my pack of 3 to Crystalās for an afternoon romp, and fun was had by all. My smallest, a 20 lb lab-chi mix, couldnāt fit through any of the gaps in the fence. There were water and toys out, and the pups had a blast with so many places to sniff. Plenty of shade as well for a hot afternoon. The only reasons Iām not giving five stars are the chairs were dirty; there were old piles of dog poop around the yard; and we could hear the dogs inside the house barking, which made my middle boy a little too nervous to play. None are show-stoppers, and I hope to come back and visit soon.
Crystal was so nice and accommodating. There was a slight miscommunication when we arrived, but the host was quick to fix it for us! The yard is really large and in a nice, quiet area off the main road. There is a gap in the fence that large to medium dogs would not be able to get through, but one of my dogs is 5lb, and while she is not an escape artist, I would just keep that in mind if you have a toy breed when booking. We had a great overall experience and will be returning in the future.
Dogs love it! Very spacious for fetch. Will be coming back! :)
For time using sniffspot. It felt weird hanging out someoneās backyard but we did get comfortable after awhile. The yard was fully fenced in and tall. The host has water bowls provided and a couple of toys but we did bring our own. Would definitely go back again!
Overgrown and big dog poop that wasnāt picked up. We booked an hour but could only stay 30 min.
Host replied: I'm sorry you had a bad experience! We did have clumps of wild onion and some buttercups growing up in the yard that day. Also dogs do poop, so there's that... I think just bad timing, because as soon as you left, our yard maintenance crew came. Hope you had a good trip back to MA.
We had so much fun. The yard is very clean and open. Plenty of room for the dogs to really run and play. Easy to access water for the dogs when they took a break and great shade for the humans.
Great spot! I met a friend with our dogs here and had a great time. Fully fenced, no way for dogs to escape. Big area to run and fetch a tennis ball. Will be back :)
