Urban Oasis - Astroturf play and agility space (no muddy paws ever)

Over 4200 square feet of Astroturf play area conveniently located adjacent to the BWI airport (less than a 5 min Uber ride away). The yard is surrounded by wooden privacy fencing so your pups can focus on playing! Astroturf provides a soft, plush, clean surface so even wet dogs don’t get dirty during their stay (perfect if you’re waiting on a flight or traveling with your pup). Aluminum gazebo to protect you from the elements, and a separate covered sitting area to keep guests shaded. Space is equipped with agility equipment including an a-frame, adjustable jump, tunnel, agility stakes, and back tie. The space also has various toys, kiddie pools/dog activated water fountain/hose in the summer to keep dogs cool . There is a metal tug toy assembly in the tree, but you’ll need to bring your own toy to hook into it (we go through the toys too fast to keep replacing 😂). If coordinated in advance (and with owner supervision) you can even use the slat mill for an extra physical challenge. If you’re bringing a young puppy out please message us directly so we can put out the ball pit. The space is equipped to be used in the dark and has many solar motion activated lights along the fence, solar lights on the pergola, and a lit walkway leading up to the gate. The best travel companion is a happy/tired pet. As the weather gets nicer you may see some neighbors on your way in and may hear them while in the yard. You may also hear the normal neighborhood noises and the occasional cluck of a chicken (there are 🐓 next door; however, the privacy fence is slated, the fence is over 8ft tall, and the turf is on a hard rock pack so they aren’t super visible and they’d be EXTREMELY hard to get to). No dogs live in the yards adjacent to the fence so you rarely hear barking; however, we occasionally take in reactive board and trains. In the extremely rare case one of our houseguests barks and disturbs your peace during the visit let us know and we will make it right. On most hot days the turf gets warm in direct sunlight. Typically we will spray it down between guests if we are home. However, please check the turf intermittently and spray down as desired. The turf has an infill that causes significant evaporative cooling once its sprayed down. The small red cooler typically has water for the humans! Please help yourselves! Please no smoking 🚭 anywhere on the property. Cigarettes could damage our turf (extremely expensive to fix) and poison dogs.

Zen Paw Ranch

Hello fellow pet parents! We have a total of three lush green acres available for your beloved pet friends to explore. The space is fully-fenced. Our fence is a 3.5 foot high cattle fence with wire mesh. The entrance to our spot is a large metal swing gate. The spot has cut short-grass. There are lots of deer among other animals in the area so your dog can have their own sniffing adventure! No need to worry if your dog is reactive because these animals usually keep their distance. We have digging areas, bottomless water bowls and poop bags. We also have some wood planks that could possibly be used for agility jumps (See pictures). You can enjoy a nice nap on the hammock, sit at the picnic table, or just relax on the lawn chairs while watching your pup. Enjoy a cup of coffee, soft drink or h2o while your lovely pet is enjoying their free time. Wet wipes, hand sanitizer, sunscreen, paper towels and a trash can will be provided as well. The area is quite tranquil; you can enjoy birds chirping or even meditate. Portable lawn chairs are also accessible. It’s a perfect place to take some time off from daily life struggles and relax; both for you and your furry friend! Shady spots are available during any time of the day if you don’t like to be under the sun. We would love to see your furry friends enjoying our yard. Please feel free to share their pictures at the spot! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out!

This place has everything you need for a good play session! Perfect size for the dogs to run around, but small enough that you can keep your eye on them. Plenty of toys and other things to play with.

Urban Oasis was a great getaway for my pup! She loved running up and down the ramp and sniffing all the smells throughout the yard. There was plenty of room to play fetch and even an area where I could give her a nice bath. The area was fully enclosed and safe for any dog that may be reactive around other pups or people. I will definitely be back!

This was our first Sniffspot experience! I think I picked a great spot to try. The property was very clean, neat and organized. I really appreciated the shade tree, that and the shade tents kept us comfortable. There were quite a few neighbors moving about which was expected on a Saturday afternoon and was great as we need to learn to work through those kinds of distractions, especially off lead. The agility equipment was cool for us to see. Still contemplating if that’s a sport for us to try.

10/10 for the host and space. They really provided everything you could want. Toys, water for dogs and humans, obstacles, pools, lots of shade and seating, an easy way to clean up after your dogs. Instructions and communication were clear. My dogs get a 5/10 :) this was our first Sniffspot and I was hoping they would relax and play a little more but they didn’t really leave my side and stayed on high alert despite the safe space. But they sniffed the whole yard for the first 20 minutes straight which is good for them and I didn’t have to keep my head on a swivel worrying about other dogs so that alone was worth it.

This was a great location to visit with my 8 month old lab. New sounds, surface, and new smells! Once he got warmed up, he really enjoyed splashing in the kiddie pool and running through the tunnel. Having shaded areas and water for the humans was an extra nice touch! The area was clean and safe. We plan to visit again! Thank you!

Chico and I had the best time at this sniff spot. It is our first time trying Sniffspot overall and I’m glad I picked this place. Chico has sensitive paw pads so the turf was perfect for him. We live in an apartment so he has never tried a kiddie pool and he loved it ! I’m so happy to have a place where we can come and play. The place is well equipped.
