HOST REPORTS

My dog will be kept inside with all blinds and windows closed. There are a few dogs in the yards behind us, however there’s another yard separating us. Occasionally the neighbors to the right and back will let their dogs out, but they’re generally leashed and I rarely seem them.

My neighbor to the left has acquired a handful of outdoor cats. In the evenings and on warm afternoons, you will be able to see them in his yard. There are about 3 squirrels who scavenge for food; they've come to love terrorizing Cassian, PLEASE be mindful of this if your dog has a high prey drive for squirrels specifically as the fence is not fully secured along the ground in one area.

HOST REPORTS

Sometimes

This is generally a quiet neighborhood, but you may see and hear people walking by, especially around 3/4pm when parents are picking up their kids from the bus. My neighbor to the left is 91 and really enjoys coming to the fence to chat briefly, or occasionally try to shout from his yard; I say try because he is 91... He may do this upon seeing "strangers" in the yard, if you don't wish to chat or your dog doesn't like strangers, please very kindly tell him that you aren't interested in talking, he’s a sweetheart and just looking for conversation.

Description

Cassian, my 2yr old Golden Retriever, is obsessed with his new yard. After growing up an apartment dog, we took it upon ourselves to buy a house with a big enough yard for him to zoomie as fast as possible every day 🐶 There are squirrels, beautiful mature trees in the yard and nearby, and it’s generally very quiet and relaxing. We have a small kiddie pool for your pups to play in during the summer, along with a splash pad. Please use at your dogs leisure!🌊☀️ And Cassian’s best toys are set aside for everyone to use ☺️ ❄️‼️ We have a small propane heater that will be set up inside of our shed, along with two chairs. Please feel free to use these to help keep you warm and block the wind while your pup plays 💚 We hope you and your pups enjoy it as much as we do!💚

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

The ground is a little unlevel, and there are divots and lumps from the squirrels and a few moles that just refuse to leave. In the summer wild grapes, Virginia creeper, and poison ivy grow along the right side of the fence. We’re working on clearing it and hope to be rid of it all by Summer 2026, fingers crossed!

The Orchard 🍎

Fully Fenced
2 acres

We’re excited to share our private 2-acre organic apple orchard with you and your dog! It is completely enclosed with a 10-foot tall fence. It’s great for dogs who love to run as well as those who need a quiet place to explore. Because our farm sits a bit off the main road, it is usually a peaceful and relaxing environment. There is occasional mud especially right after a rain. There are bee boxes located outside of the back/northern fence line (your dog will not be able to access them). Due to the nature of our property and the outdoor environment, I cannot guarantee the absence of wildlife, wildlife scat, insects, mud, fallen fruit, weather-related conditions, or other natural elements. By booking a visit, guests acknowledge these conditions may be present. Please keep this in mind when scheduling your visit and thank you for understanding!!

Yoko's 12 Acres Quiet Meadow & 1 Acre Hidden Pond behind the Red Barn

Partially Fenced
12 acres

Where Dogs Run Free, and Humans Slow Down There are easier places to exercise a dog. But this is a place to exhale. Nestled among meadows, towering trees, and a spring-fed pond, this private retreat offers something increasingly rare: space. Space to run. Space to wander. Space to think. Space to do absolutely nothing. Dogs arrive and immediately understand. They sprint through the open fields, follow trails of scent through the grass, splash into the pond, and explore at their own pace. Humans usually take a little longer. They settle into the shade beneath the trees. Listen to the wind moving across the water. Watch clouds drift over the pond. And slowly remember what quiet feels like. We’ve intentionally left the land natural. No crowds. No traffic. No barking from neighboring dog parks. No pressure to hurry. Just open sky, green fields, cool water, and the freedom to enjoy them together. Some days bring bright sunshine and dragonflies skimming the pond. Other days bring dramatic summer clouds rolling across the horizon, turning the landscape into something that feels almost timeless. Every visit is a little different. But the feeling is usually the same. Your dog leaves tired. You leave lighter.

🌟 Findy Yard 🌟

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Hi! We have two Australian Shepherds. An 8 year old blue merle (Elvira) and a 2 year old red merle (Roary). We are a huge dog loving family, and we'd love to welcome other floofs to our yard. ALL BREEDS WELCOME. 💕 We lived in an apartment for many years with our floofs, so we know how it is not to have your own yard for your fur kids. My family would love to allow other dogs to use our space to run and play freely. The yard has privacy fencing all around, and chances are there will already be plenty of tennis balls and other toys around. Feel free to use the pool. If you have any questions or other requests, please let us know. 🙂
