55Amazing, so sad it's closing down. :( Loved the space, thanks so much for sharing!!!!
55This felt like a home away from home... our favorite place to go with our friends. Honey loved all the swimming with her friend Charlie, and Lexie thoroughly enjoyed all the sniffs and running around the yard. She even started swimming on her own!! Thank you so much, and we're sorry to see you go.
55Really sad Raymond’s spot is closing down. It was truly the best sniff spot around. :(
55Amazing time absolutely no other dogs barking no dogs around. My dogs had such a wonderful time. I will definitely be coming back to this Sniffspot.
55Great space with an awesome pool
55Raymond’s backyard is amazing and so glad he was able to share it with the community. We are so sad he is closing down. Thanks for allowing us to use your backyard. Communication was always great too!
55Very nice sniffspot! My dog loved the pool!
55We love Raymond and his beautiful sniffspot. Thank you for accommodating my last minute request of +1 dog and owner. You rock and we love coming over 👍🌞🐾
55As always it is a pleasure coming here.Always clean and so fun. My dog and I love it and Raymond,the host, is awesome 😎
55Amazing spot!

Hi! I'm a retired US Army Officer. I run a small business out of my home, and love the idea of dogs being able to use our yard to enjoy themselves!

NEW DESCRIPTION! If you're looking for a FANCY yard this isn't your place

I feel like I have to newly brand our temporary back yard for you, our guests. This isn’t a fancy ass backyard with all the sweet little amenities. We have a beautiful large yard for your pup to run and a very functional pool THAT MAY HAVE LEAVES in it. If you have any doubts then please read the reviews. IF you have any issues please message me before leaving a negative or less than 5 star review so that I can fix the issue. I’m more than willing to accommodate and suggestions are always welcome. Please don’t expect a perfect backyard as explained in our description. :) Hello! This is our newly purchased home that we will be renovating but in the meantime our backyard is yours for you and your doggos! I may or may not be there working but you’re welcome to use our yard and pool whether I’m there or not for the time being. Once construction is done we will be expecting to stop offering our yard sometime after 8/1/24. We do have small gaps in our front gate that small dogs may be able to escape, pics shown. Please keep that into consideration if you have smaller dogs. *** I will mention we have gotten some reviews with people upset on the presentation of our yard seeing wood with nails sticking out and dog feces being left behind. I do understand the concern and everything has since been cleaned and updated pics will be posted first thing 3/24/24. We do not have the most perfect pristine show backyard that you may be expecting but there is a perfectly good pool for you and the doggo and chairs and plenty of room for the pups to run around. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT OUR PROPERTY PLEASE EITHER ASK OR BRING IT UP TO US BEFORE, DURING OR AFTER YOUR VISIT. If there is anything you see that could be considered a hazard please message me so I can mitigate the issue immediately. I will accommodate best I possibly can under this new building time in our lives. We would love to have you but we also want you to feel safe and comfortable. FYI, my backyard is being rented out to people with dogs….I apologize if you come across dog poop. It has since been picked up, beware you may or may not see more. I walk my yard often, feel free to go to a regular dog park if this upsets you. :) We have an amazing open space and a pool should you or your dog want to go for a swim. The neighbors dog may or may not be out there but we are working on putting in privacy slats so they don’t bother barking too much. Please let us know if you have any questions and we hope to see you and yours there soon!

Shaggy's Shack in Tempe

Does life feel “ruff” sometimes? Maybe it’s time to run free in an enclosed private backyard with lots of grass. Or are you looking to “make your mark” in this world? Or perhaps you just want to “paws” and relax in the shade. If so, then Shaggy’s Shack Sniffspot is for you....and your awesome human, too! Shaggy’s Shack in Tempe has lots of grass for running, chasing balls, and doing the zoomies! It’s fully enclosed with a 5 to 6-foot block wall and more than 25 trees and bushes to explore. You can play fetch with tons of toys and there’s a designated digging spot, too. Or maybe you just want to cool off in a diving pool that’s professionally cleaned every Wednesday–even during Tempe’s cold months. Oh, and Shaggy’s Shack also has features shaded chairs for your human to relax as they watch you explore, play fetch, swim, and have a pawsitively good time. Shaggy’s Shack’s residents (and their humans) will be home but out of sight. The entire lot is just shy of a half-acre, and it’s conveniently located in Tempe. Many dogs live in the area, they may bark in greeting when they hear you. We offer many pawsome amenities at Shaggy’s Shack, including bags and a trash can for your nature calls and a disposable water dish with lots of fresh water (and water for your human, too). Clean towels for drying off after you’ve doggie-paddled in the pool are also provided. Of course, use of the pool is at your and your human’s own risk. The pool is chlorinated and not heated in the winter months. Your human may use the pool to get a closer look at your pawsome doggie paddling technique. While we provide towels for you, we ask that your human brings their own towels. There is no fence or gate around the pool, and we strongly encourage you to bring your own doggie life vest if you do decide to get your paws wet. Discounts are available for multiple dogs. Visit times can be extended if there is availability. Respecting Sniffspot’s 30-minute transition time between visit times is very important. So that no one gets hurt or gets into something that could be dangerous, glass, alcohol and smoking are prohibited. All pups need to be up-to-date on all vaccinations to keep our resident and visiting doggos healthy. Since Shaggy’s Shack Sniffspot is for dogs, please be mindful of your doggie to human ratio; kids are welcome but must be 100% supervised, especially around the ungated, unfenced pool. Our goal is to make your time at Shaggy’s Shack loads of fun for you and your human so you’ll come back again and again. We’re sure you’ll need a long cat nap after a furbulous visit to Shaggy’s Shack! What are you waiting for? Stop chasing your tail and schedule your time at Shaggy’s Shack Sniffspot today! We’re sure you’ll have a pawesome time!
