This is a beautiful place! There were plenty of toys available, we had a great time.
This was an amazing spot, and so cute! The host goes the extra mile by having towels and blankets. They even have refreshments. Our pups had such a special day here.
My dog and I really enjoy coming here! Peaceful yard and plenty of room to run!
Lulu had a super cute photo op after a great hour of hard play & sniffing. Thank you for the set up!
This gem has everything you need! Towels, fresh water, humans and dog snacks, cover (we came in the rain), and more! Our puppy is only 7lbs so weโre always concerned about gaps in fencing. The fence here was great! There were a few low spots that my anxious brain made me notice but we just loved some plant pots & bricks to make sure she couldnโt escape.
This time we celebrated a puppy birthday, and WOW!!! I want my own birthday celebrations to be this amazing!
Never a bad visit! Always clean and welcoming
Lots of space to run and a beautiful setting to relax
Spot is always clean and offers a lot of landscape interest for my pupper! Hosts are wonderful - they went the extra mile when I left some of my belongings behind! Weโll be back! Thank you!
Great spot!

We have lived in the area for 20+ years and in Lorton for over 10. We love critters and have tried to make our yard friendly for wildlife. The yard is a Certified Wildlife Habitatยฎ, so expect there will be birds, squirrels, and pollinators to include bees. We also work with Virginia German Shepherd Rescue (VGSR) as a volunteer and a foster, so if you have any questions about VGSR, just ask. Currently, we have 5 dogs (3 mutts, 1 GSD, and 1 Foster GSD thru VGSR) and 5 cats.
