Summer only: select this on those hot, muggy summer days to have some air moving and help keep mosquitos at bay. The fan helps a lot as long as the sound of a fan blowing doesn't bother you or your dog.
Summer only: Add a kiddie pool of fresh water for dogs to play in and cool down on hot summer days. Must have at least one hour between rentals to drain and refill pool with fresh water.

Exactly as described and we had a blast! We all got some exercise and my pup loved checking out all the different toys. Highly recommend.

Karen is awesome. The site is great!
Lots of toys available and a great time!
Beautiful spot. Quiet, well cared for, lots of toys! Very clear signs for where to go and park. My girls had a great time.
Host replied: I'm so glad, Sarah. Come visit again!
We had an absolutely delightful experience in this yard! I live in an apartment with my dog-reactive dog and this sniffspot was a great outlet for her. It was super clean, there was an extensive array of toys for us to use, and fresh water. No dogs were visible or within earshot which was perfect for her. We will absolutely be back!
Nice, clean area to play with the dogs. Great host.
This was our first time using sniff spot, and my pups had a fabulous time at Karen’s! She was so sweet to leave them some treats and they loved all the different toys and all the room to stretch their legs. We will definitely be back again soon!
Host replied: Katie, I'm so glad the pups enjoyed their time. Come again as your schedule permits.
Great experience. Karen is a great host. This is an awesome spot and we will be back!
Everything was great! Really appreciated the big bowl of fresh water! Clear signage to park and enter the area. The girls loved it. Whole experience was fantastic.
Host replied: Thanks so much for visiting, Vicki.
The place was perfect. Plenty of room to run, clean water and toys, shade and chairs for us while the dogs played. I appreciate how well kept and beautiful the space is! Dog slept all the way home. Mission accomplished!

Hi, I'm Karen. I have one black lab, Jax, who remains in the house during your rental. Jax is happy (well, maybe not THAT happy) to share his yard for you and your dogs to play or train off leash in a safe, secure and semi private area. No other dogs are present at your rental. The fenced-in area is a half acre. This provides ample room for your dog to run and fetch off leash with your dog always remaining visible. No other property is directly next to the fenced-in area which is especially good for reactive dogs. Cleaned and refilled water bowl for every rental. Toys are checked after each rental, and thoroughly washed/sanitized weekly. A bottle of disinfectant is also provided for use during your rental should you so choose.
