55As always Justine’s yard was nice and clean and Kodak loves to play with Leo! This is my #1 place to take Kodak to get his energy and zoomies out
55This Sniffspot is amazing! The hosts are fantastic!! My puller loved it and we will be back! Safe and secure, quiet and cozy!
55My pup LOVED his time at this Sniffspot!! So many amenities available.. it was great.
55A very beautiful property and a easy location to get to We will definitely be back 
55Five stars, two paws up, and one ridiculously happy tail! 🐾 My dog had the time of his fluffy little life — we’re talking full-on zoomies, goofy grin, tongue-flapping-in-the-breeze level joy. The yard? Immaculate. Like, “Did Martha Stewart secretly design this place?” kind of immaculate. Total doggy resort vibes. The hosts? Absolute gems. They thought of everything: toys, chill-out zones, snacks for pups and humans (finally, equality). Oh — and the dog pool? My pup used it for splashing, lounging, and, yes… hydration. Apparently, it doubles as a luxury drinking fountain now. And Leo? The resident dog? Total icon. Calm, cuddly, and basically a live-in doggy therapist. My pup left feeling emotionally supported and very seen. We’ll 100% be back. Honestly, I think my dog’s already Googling how to move in. 🐶💛
55Peaceful, fun, and perfect for both my dog and me. They’ve done an amazing job of creating such a beautiful space. We will absolutely be back and I’m so grateful it’s here to enjoy!
55What a beautiful and well maintained property to let your pup run loose for a bit! My guy loved the freedom to run and sniff around and even found the perfect spot to sit on the deck and surveil the neighborhood (one of his favorite pastimes). He also enjoyed the two small dog pools!
55Had a great time, as we always do when we come here. We splurged and got Kodak the lick mat and popsicle🙂 I swear Kodak left half for his friend Leo 😁 he was looking everywhere for him for a good 5-10 minutes. The kiddie pools were out for Kodak to cool off, plus the water bowls and the bucket of toys he loves to play with. oh, and his favorite treat the milk bones that are left in the bowl on the table. We will definitely be back again as this is Kodaks favorite place to go. Thank you for always allowing Kodak to come over and get his energy out. Maybe next time it’s not too hot/humid and Kodak and Leo get to play 🙂
55Clean and spacious, will definitely visit again!
55 Beautiful property with a lot of room for playing. Liked the little pools, even though my puppy didn't know what to do with them yet. Will definitely be back and highly recommend.

Description

**We will be temporarily closed for 2026.** Our quiet, fully fenced (6’ privacy fence) almost 1 acre yard offers a variety of dog & human friendly spaces. There’s a secure entrance to the yard from a large circle driveway. There is a deck with table, seating, and umbrellas, a small pond, a screened in gazebo with a fan and seating, a hammock area, a shaded doggy hangout under the pool deck, and a fire pit with seating. We have a variety of surfaces: concrete sidewalk, river rock landscaping beds, dirt holes for digging, wood deck with rugs, gravel beds, and plenty of grass! The yard is lined with large trees for shade- it is in almost full shade after 5pm in the summer months. There’s plenty of dog toys and various water bowl zones. Water bowls are filled with fresh mountain well water. We also provide fresh spring water & treats for both humans and dog guests! Feel free to pick blueberries on our four large bushes in July/August or apples on our three trees if you find any good ones (pesticide free).

Hi, everyone! My husband and I bought our property four years ago and have been making it into our own oasis since. We love dogs, and have a Great Pyrenees of our own.

Zoomie Zone: Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Lackawanna County PA

Fully Fenced

🐾 Welcome to the Zoomie Zone – Happy Paws, Happy Hearts! 🐾 Born out of our years of passionate dog rescue work, the Zoomie Zone is more than just a play space—it’s a fenced-in haven for dogs who need room to run, sniff, play, and just be dogs. We created this Sniffspot because not all pups thrive at public dog parks, and not all humans properly supervise their dogs. That’s why we offer a safe, private, and fully enclosed space for your pup to enjoy off-leash freedom—without the stress. Every dollar you spend here goes straight back into our dog rescue efforts, helping us foster, transport, and find loving homes for dogs in need. 🐕 Why You (and Your Pup) Will Love It: ✅ Fully Fenced and Secure Nearly one acre of no-climb 5-foot fencing keeps your dog safely contained while they explore, zoom, and sniff to their heart’s content. ✅ Private & Easy Access Pull right into your designated parking area, and you’re just steps away from doggy paradise—no awkward interactions or long walks to get to the fun. ✅ Toys, Tug Trees, and Tail Wags We’ve stocked the Zoomie Zone with a toy bin full of fun—including ball launchers, frisbees, and more! There’s even a tether tree tug station for serious games of tug-of-war. ✅ Large Doggy Pool Available Want to cool down after all that zooming? We’ve got a large doggy pool on-site! Request to have it filled before your visit, or feel free to fill it yourself while your pup plays. ✅ Human-Friendly Too With ample seating and shady spots, you can kick back and relax, or get your steps in—10 laps around the perimeter = 1 mile! 📍 Convenient Location Just off I-81, we’re easy to find and perfect for a mid-road trip break, a weekly energy burn, or a special outing. Whether your dog needs a quiet space to roam, or just loves a new place to sniff, the Zoomie Zone is a private doggy dream come true. 👉 Book your visit today—and let the zoomies begin! 🐶 Follow our rescue adventures and stay updated: 📲 Facebook: facebook.com/share/18xvWumM8M
