55This might be a new fave! The yard is clean, set up so nicely for visitors, and smells amazing for some reason - trees maybe, I don’t know, but it was super pleasant, lol. The babies had a ton of fun sniffing & bounding around. The space is big enough for them to play fetch but small enough that I could see them wherever they were exploring. Plenty of balls for them to chase, friendly neighbors, and no other dogs in sight. It isn’t often that I can fully relax at a spot, but this one was great.
55Great spot! Appreciated the poop bags since we forgot ours. No dogs in sight/no barking, fence was very secure. Great for our 18 lb reactive dog
55Lovely spot, always clean, has seating and is very communicative
55Nice little yard for two dogs to sniff around in and do a bit of romping!
55I was lucky enough that the rain stopped and my dog got to run and sniff to her hearts content. There is a nice seating area if it was raining, and an open grassy area. The area is big enough for my medium dog to chase the ball. A perfect visit.
55Thank you again.
55My dog loved it. Good space to run around and sniff.
55Great flat, safe spot for our dogs to roam and play off leash! We’ll be back.
55Our favorite yard in SE!
55Nice spot, not huge but cute with lots of different balls to play fetch, trees to sniff and a great covered area to stay out of the rain for the humans. Easy to get in and out if the gate. Definitely recommend.

Description

I have a large, mostly unused back yard that has the best energy with a dog running around it. There are a few trees and a firepit, but for the most part it’s a large open yard just waiting to be enjoyed by any age, size or energy level pup! The backyard has the most sun in the afternoons but the yard can be used any time of day or season as there is a pergola and outdoor lights!

Cleanliness

96% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

Other than potential unknown things that could be dug up, there are no major hazards. If your dog is heavily focused on escaping, this might not be the place for you, but as mentioned, we’ve never had any escapes up to now :) I do have 2 trees which produce fruit during the late summer and fall. Apples mostly, though technically one has plums and either prunes or figs, but I haven’t seen many of those in the 3 years I’ve lived here. The apples we do see for a short period of time each year. They are mostly taken by squirrels but we collect survivors, and compost the ones that fall, unfortunately there may be some on the ground despite our efforts. You and you’re dog are welcome to enjoy the fruit, or leave it as is, or compost any that are on the ground for more room to play. If your dog is extremely obsessed with food, know that late August through October are the primary fruit months, 90% of the year there is no fruit. Happy to answer any questions via the messaging app you might have before you book, or while you’re here. Reach out and let me know how I can make your stay the most comfortable.

Hi there! I’m Erica, a part time property manager, and disability advocate. I am currently recovering from shoulder surgery while managing invisible illness so I work from home. You may see me or my housemates or one of the 4 indoor cats if we’re in the kitchen but we try to keep blinds closed and to give you privacy :) Let me know if you have any questions, I’m happy to help.
