55We had a great time here! Nice, large lawn in a quiet neighborhood!
55terrific new spot for us. there at noon , there was sun and shade. so much run room and good perimeter space to run. cold water and treats/toys were out for tess. thank you!
55Great location! Hope to be back soon again.
55Linda is so kind and left water for my pup. We spent more than two hours in her yard and had a lovely morning. Thank you, Linda!
55Wonderful open and secure yard for us to have our pup meet up with my parent’s dog! Our dog tends to be dog selective so the fence being completely closed off was ideal! They had a wonderful time!!
55It was our first time using Sniffspot, and we had a great time! The yard is clean, well maintained, and a great size. There was water, toys, poop bags, and even some dog treats, which was a really nice touch. Cassie also loved trying the little agility equipment—it was such a fun bonus! The only thing to keep in mind is that it’s in a residential neighborhood, so you may occasionally hear neighboring dogs barking. Cassie barked back a couple of times, but it actually turned into a good opportunity to practice staying calm around other dogs barking. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and would definitely come back. I’d happily recommend this spot to others.
55Lots of space to run around!
55Pups had a great time. We appreciated the ice water the host left out for our dogs. Great sniffspot experience.
55Great space! It was exactly as advertised, would definitely come back!

Fully Fenced

Hi, my name is Bob and I grew up here with many different dogs over the years. They all loved to run, play and explore the yard as much as I did. I decided to name my spot for my mother, who always brought me to all the pet shops around and the reason for my love of animals. I sincerely hope that you and your dogs will also have as much fun running, playing and exploring the yard as we did!

Humphrey's Hangout: Palatine Private Pup Yard

Fully Fenced
0.11 acres

Welcome to Humphrey’s Hangout: a private, low-pressure yard in Palatine built for dogs who need room to sniff, stretch, play, and decompress without the chaos of a public dog park. This spot is best for solo dogs, small packs, puppies, nervous dogs, city/suburban dogs who need a reset, and owners who want a calmer off-leash option. Book the space for fetch, training practice, decompression time, puppy confidence-building, or a quiet sniff session. The yard is private during your booking. Please leash dogs when entering and exiting, clean up after your visit, and leave the space as you found it. Water, seating, trash access, and basic dog-friendly setup are available where noted in the listing. This is the first version of Humphrey’s Hangout, so feedback is welcome as we keep improving the space for repeat guests.

Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Lombard

Fully Fenced

**Sorry! Pool is away for the season** We live on a corner lot. There is a high, spaced fence along the public sidewalk. There is a kiddie pool (during summer), a rain garden (not really for the dogs, but in case you're worried about water it can temporarily fill up during and after heavy rainfall), and some agility equipment (four jumps and six weave poles) upon request. Easiest access to the yard is to park on E Taylor and enter through the north gate. Please open the gate with the inside latch (about chest height); please do not open the gate with the in-ground bolt. There is a tall, silver trash can on the patio for any human trash. There is a short, silver trash can near the north gate entrance for Dog Bags. Please enjoy a patio chair, dog toys, sunscreen, bug spray, and hammock (weather permitting). Backyard is East Facing so gets lots of morning sun. There is a sun shade over part of the patio but the patio area is 100% shaded by 3:30-4p, the yard is ~50% shaded by 6p, ~100% shaded by 7p.
