The DiP Yard: An Urban Dog Haven

All earnings will be donated to a couple of smaller rescue groups, including Pets With Disabilities (MD), Lizzie's Lodge Rescue (MD) and Arcadia Animal Rescue (SC). We have a very private fenced in yard, we would like to offer up to any other pups who might enjoy some freedom! Lots of availability for weekdays too. We have a natural wooded yard that borders a county park on one side, with a 6ft wooden fence all the way around the property, and a side entry gate. The ground cover is the soft playground wood chips, specifically designed to be comfortable for all kinds of furbabies! Endless amounts of smells and sniffing opportunities from all the local wildlife that frequent our yard. Good space for long runs, frisbee, tennis ball, soccer ball action for the energetic pups, and plenty of space for meandering, or just lounging around in the sun spots for the more mature pups. The yard has sunny areas and plenty of natural shade from the trees. You can also enjoy a deck with a patio table, cushioned chairs and lawn chair seating, poop bags, extra dog water bowls, outdoor spigot with hose for water bowl refills, or hose play and elevated feeders for the pups who cannot bend down very well to drink. The public park next to us has several wooded trails, so if your pup has any energy left, it is a nice park to walk. Quiet spread out and very dog friendly neighborhood. Easy parking on the street outside the house, side entry gate but please make sure you click the gate shut when you leave though!

Large, fully fenced backyard. Shade in places during full sun. Table, chairs and umbrella are set up on the patio for your use as your dog plays!

Clean Urban backyard with trees, shade and space to run.

****Update as of June 1st, the yard has just gotten a full mowing, trim, and raking of all the clippings. It's beautiful and good to go! Right now, Friday and Saturday are wide open for new bookings. Our mulberry tree is in full bloom, and there are lots of berries on the ground for your dog to snack on. They are safe! If you're feeling adventurous, you could pick a few off the tree yourself, give them a rinse, and try a snack.**** We have somewhere between a third to a half an acre in our backyard, fully enclosed with a 5 to 7-ft wood fence. We have shady spots, but there also aren't too many trees, so there is plenty of room to play fetch and run around. Amenities include three different size jumps, weave poles, a spring-loaded tug rope attached to a tree, a little patio table if you'd like to sit down, a hammock, and a trampoline.
