welcome to Doggy Paradise! Here at the “zoo”, we have 8 rescue dogs of our own, and we love nothing more than to share the fun of our yard with others! We had a human reactive/dog reactive german shepherd, malakai, who unfortunately passed away before we knew about sniffspot, so in honor of him and other dogs like him, offering our yard is something i’m passionate about. in our .24 acre fenced in yard, we want to be inclusive as possible for all dogs and all owners. with that so, what we have to offer in our yard consists of: -an accessible fire pit, with comfortable seating and a gate to separate dogs from any hazard with the fire pit. -pool is open in the summer, all we ask is that you do not let your dogs claw at the liner (stairs are available). if your dog isn’t a fan of a real pool, we have a dog size pool as well. pool latter will most likely be up due to safety precautions, just take it down. -agility equipment! including 3 jumps, a tire jump, a tunnel, 2 sets of weave poles, and and A frame! -plent of room to play fetch, tug of war, chase, etc -tall sturdy fencing (with the exception of a few *single* panels loose due to weathering. most of the fencing on the property is 6 ft, with the exception of maybe 9 feet being 5 ft on the side. -dog water from CLEAN bowls -plenty of access to both shade and sun -turf and path around deck -very quiet neighborhood -access to hose and pooper scooper -WE HAVE A K9 BLOWER!! no stress when your dog is soaking wet out of the pool. -lots of parking -wide variety of toys, such as balls, frisbees, flirt poles, rubber toys, chuck its and ropes. neighbors dogs are *occasionally* out. they are only visible if you go out of your way to look through the cracks in the fence , but you cans hear them rustling around when they walk. in the near future, more agility equipment, a spring pole, And enrichment activities will be added.

Dog Heaven! A river/lagoon to swim and wade, grass to run and play and woods to sniff and explore!

Give your pup a cool break at our 4 acre partially fenced private dog park over 100 meters from the street with water, grass, woods and more! Human friends can take a break in the shade and watch for some of the magnificent birds that also visit the river while your pup is having the time of it’s life. Private parking onsite. *** This is a “carry in carry out” “park!” Please take your poop bags. I cannot have all the poop :) There is a park with a garbage bag 200 yards from my house if you want to dispose of it quickly. Right out of my driveway, 200 yards on your left. Pull over and toss the bag into the garbage there. **Back patio is off limits. It is not fenced but please respect this space, tables, chairs, etc., as my private space and refrain from sitting/lounging. Please also refrain from in using the swing set. Please do your best to keep pups from running through any plantings! All other space in front yard near the river and backyard grassy area and woods are available to explore! ***I have recently found a lot of poop in my yard. You MUST clean up after your dogs. If it continues I will have to shut down my spot. Please keep a watchful eye on your dogs and clean up their poop. I cannot police the yard after every visitor and clean up their poop. Be respectful of the Sniffspot community and just in general have respect and clean up after your dogs!!!

What a fun place to hang out with your dogs.. my class loved playing on the agility equipment. One of my shy, nervous dogs was able to do the jumps and the A-frame !!! That was a joyous moment for all of us. Thank you for hosting.

This place is truly a doggy paradise. I took my pup Odyn & my baby girl Storm. As soon as we walked through the drive way they were SO excited. I love that there’s also a pool so we can keep the pups cool. We had our life jackets but life jackets are also available if needed. Odyn was in ball heaven as there was an entire bin of tennis balls. They really felt at home (maybe too comfortable). My dogs left cool, happy & fulfilled. I’m looking forward to going back!

This was perfect a private, safe place to play fetch and swim for my big girl. Everything a dog could want… we left a little early because she was pooped!!

Perfect yard and great host! Ian was very flexible in letting us reschedule due to thunderstorms. The yard was perfect for my dog to run around and play. Quiet neighborhood, no dogs in the adjacent yards (great for a pup that is anxious/reactive), and fully fenced in. They provided several extra toys, a rope toy attached to the tree, puppy pool, water bowl, and some bug spray. Would absolutely recommend Ian’s place for everyone!

Ian’s place was great and he was easy to communicate with. There were extra toys there, a water bowl and a pool that was available for use. And it was so convenient to be able to park in the driveway and not have to worry about trying to find a parking spot on the street. Just a tip to bring bug spray with you if you’re going in the summer months—I discovered this after my first visit. I will definitely book it again, but will be better prepared this time!

It was so nice to see our cooped-up city dogs run around and play in the kiddie pool. The location was great, just a big back yard with a nice sized porch. Access to the kiddie pool was awesome.

Yard was welcoming, clean and our puppies had a blast running around and playing with the ball (provided by the owner!). We’ll definitely be back. Do not hesitate to book this yard.

This spot is great. There are tons of toys and water. It’s private and there’s plenty of shade which is key on these hotter days. Be mindful that there is a fruit tree in the yard- if your dog is a scavenger, that’s something to note. We will be back !
