Healy enjoyed his time here. Beware that if your pup is wicked smart they can bypass the fence by going under the house.

What a great spot! Our dog and his cousin got to run around off leash for the first time in a while! He had a giant smile on his face the whole time. Clean, well fenced, fun spot for doggies!

Beautiful green large secure yard area with plenty of green room to run and play. Fresh water available and the pleasure of viewing little goats and horses from afar. The dogs are eternally happy!

We love the concept, thank you. The area was perfect for safe sniffing, no left over poop, secure fencing, the perfect size for exploring. Seraphina was busy sniffing the whole time we were there.

We had a blast visiting Erica’s farm! It’s fully fenced in, and Erica is so thoughtful and leaves out fresh water for the pups and a trash bin with poop bags. It was our second time visiting, and is quickly becoming one of my pup’s favorite places to visit. We all enjoyed seeing the sheep and horses too.

2nd trip here - excellent!! They left a fresh water bowl out, along with waste bags, shovel and trash can - very convenient! The yard is fantastic! You can see horses and sheep (fun for the people and the dogs). They also have a nice porch you're allowed to use - came in handy yesterday as it was cooler than expected. I love coming here and I'm so thankful they offer a membership - great yard!!!!!!

Fully fenced secure yard! Just incase you have a very curious friend- underneath the porch was not blocked off where a small/medium dog (mine is 37lbs) could get under .

This was a great spot to let my dog run and sniff around! It was nice to meet Erica at the gate to show us around her property. There are horses and goats on one side of the property with another gate to that entrance but are far enough away they are not really a distraction. We will be back for another visit.

A safe, clean environment for puppies to play. They will especially love the enclosed area to run and play fetch with their tire! A must visit!

Lots of fun toys & equipment to play with! We had a great time. Area was very clean & there was fresh water available. Couple of things to note for the more reactive dogs: there were a few barky dogs inside the building & a couple of people approached us from the lot (thinking we were associated with Urban Tails). Overall, it was a great experience & I’m sure we’ll be back

Perfect for us! Lots of room to roam and run with a ton of agility training bridges and lots of toys to play with as well. I had read some other reviews about having an issue with poop but this place was spotless for us with water available and a nice spot with an awning for shade when you need it. Great price too! Hour went by too fast and I forgot to take pictures but this place is exactly as pictured. We will be back! Thank you!

My girls had a great time here! There were tons of toys to play with and things to climb on. They also enjoyed just running around and sniffing everything. We will definitely return!

Yard was spacious and was properly fenced. My dog was definitely more interested in sniffing around than playing, but it was nice that there were a lot of toys to utilize if needed. We recently moved to western RI and this is still the closest spot to us, so I will definitely rent again-- probably on a weekly basis!
