55We had an excellent time here! There’s plenty of space to run, play and sniff! My dog certainly enjoyed checking all her pee-mails and sending a few as well to the future pup visitors. She left this sniffspot completely out of breath from playing and she slept great. Highly recommend!
55Thanks so much for having us! The dogs had a great time! The host provided water, bowls and a bin to dispose of waste. There is a massive shade tree with seating provided as well! Thanks again!
55Great spot! Our dogs loved it
55Great spot for an adventure with your pups! Lots to explore. We definitely needed more time, but we’ll have to come back when it’s a bit cooler.
55We had an absolute BLAST! Such a beautiful, quiet property. It’s my dream to have property like this one day and it was so fun to let my girl run and explore everywhere. We will definitely come back again!
55The family an I took our dog for an hour an roamed the property.. we loved it! The host was amazing and very responsive and helpful with any questions. We will be back!
55Beautiful dogs loved it
55A fantastic spot! Water and poop bags readily available for pups! We brought out 10 dogs, and they had a great time! We’ll definitely be back. Nina was so communicative, and this will be a regular spot for us because she’s such a great host!
55My dogs absolutely loved being there. It was a little adventure for them. Thank you for putting out water!!
55Dogs loved it! Then again they love feeling like they’re on a mission in the woods. We got a bit lost on the way out but as long as you follow the fence line, you’re good.

I am now retired and have loved all animals for as long as I can remember. Having lived in several places without dog roaming space, I wanted to share my property with fellow dog lovers who need a safe, spacious and private area for their pups to be pups!

Poodle's Palace 🐩 | Shady ½-Acre Dog Haven + Pool

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

This fully fenced, dog-first backyard gives your dog about ½ acre to run, sniff, play, and relax under giant oak trees. The entire yard is enclosed by a solid 6-foot wooden privacy fence with no gaps, offering a private space for off-leash fun. Pool add-on: Add the pool rental for access to our new 12-by-24-foot above-ground pool. It includes a floating dock that makes it easier for dogs of many sizes to get in and out of the water. To access the pool, please ensure you book it. The pool is intended for dogs. Children are not allowed in the pool. Our property is designed for dogs first. We have dogs of our own, so the yard comes with plenty of interesting new smells to explore. Dogs live in the neighboring yards as well, so you may hear, or smell other dogs during your visit but you will not see them. This is great for training reactive dogs in a new environment! Shade- Large, mature oak trees provide generous shade throughout the yard, with a shaded pergola for people who want to sit and relax while their dogs play. Access Enter through the side gate using the walkway from the adjacent public Round Rock park. Please reach out to us with any questions you might have about renting our space. We love all dogs and want to help give you as much information as possible to see if our spot is a good fit for you and your pups!
