    We will definitely be back! So happy to have a space for our fearful pup to enjoy herself.

  • Isabelle O., Jan 15, 2023

    The spot was perfect! We drove from CT and it did not disappoint. Our dog Lou loves rocks and boulders and had the best time checking out the varying terrain. Our dog Margot is super reactive so it was lovely to be able to pull into their driveway, close the gate and then let the dogs off leash. It truly is dog paradise! We will come back soon. We truly appreciated you sharing your yard and being an amazing host 🫶 thanks so much!

  • Morgan R., Jan 14, 2023

    Great visit. Nice to have a fire burning.

    Host replied: Glad you enjoyed the 🔥

  • Megan J., Jan 8, 2023

    This spot was so awesome for our dog to enjoy. The area is about 2/3 woods and 1/3 yard. My dog loved running around the wooded area and sniffing everything. The host provided a bowl of water, a towel, some poo baggies, and there were a few toys around the property. Be aware there is deer poop on the property, if your dog tends to want to roll in or eat animal poop! Overall the area was secure, dynamic and so much fun.

    Host replied: So happy you had a fun time. We have a new family of bunnies living on the property and since the fence prevents deer from coming in I am guessing that's the poop you saw (and your dog snacked on!). We'll work on disposing of more of it! Hope to see you back.

  • Camala L., Jan 2, 2023

    Wonderful fully fenced property with a lovely grassy space or woods and paths to explore. Plenty of rocks for climbing, sticks for fetching. Fencing was secure and the welcome table and sign were a sweet touch with a towel, water bowl, baggies, and guest WiFi info! We’ll be back!

    Host replied: Love this pack. Thanks for being great guests.

  • Eli G., Jan 2, 2023

    Lovely spot with helpful items left for use!

    Host replied: Glad you had a good time. Hope to see you again.

  • Carol L., Dec 30, 2022

    We loved the rocky terrain for Nash to jump up and down from! Little things like the towels to dry off and the firepit were great

    Host replied: What a beautiful pup. Come back anytime.

  • Maria G., Dec 13, 2022

    Indigo had a blast playing in the snow and exploring! There was a perfect balance of flat ground for fetch and interesting spots for exploring. The space was exactly as described. We will definitely come back!

  • Kelly M., Dec 11, 2022

    Absolutely perfect. Our dogs had a blast exploring and it was so nice knowing that they were safe and secure. The combination of open yard and rocky wooded area was perfect for zoomies and recall training.

    Host replied: Hi Kelly, We are so happy you and the pups had a blast in our yard. You are welcome back anytime!!!!

  • Lauren O., Nov 22, 2022

    easy to find, safe & secure. my dogs LOVED it!!

I am a CPDT-KA certified dog trainer with more than 15 years of experience in the field. Before moving upstate full time in 2016 I helped dogs and their owners in NYC overcome a wide range of behavior issues. I currently offer private lessons via Zoom and in-person (within Ulster County). Whether you have a new puppy who is chewing up your shoes, an older dog who barks at guests or anything in between please DM me for more info on training services.
