Tippe's Backyard Oasis

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Close to 1/2acre of mowed grass with a good mix of sunshine and shade, and plenty of dog smells to enjoy! Fully fenced with 4' picket fencing, 3 gates with latches. I do a poop scoop at least 2-3x weekly so I can't guarantee spotless perfection but I'll do my best to clean up before scheduled visits- please do the same:) There is ample seating for human guests and a table. Patio gets sun from midday to early evening, 2 umbrellas provide shade.

Figgy's Private Sniff and Play Wonderland

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Dogs love my sniff-tastic space! I hope you'll visit my large, fully enclosed half-acre yard. It has everything a pup could ask for: an open clearing for zoomies or game of fetch, shady woods and nooks and crannies to investigate, SO MANY critter sniff trails, and dirt, leaves and grass to dig in! It's also a great space for humans of all sizes to explore! You can even try your hand at a game of bocci ball while you're here in our gravel court! (Feel free to move our weed tarp out of the way if you want to play). Easy side-street parking on Kamankeag makes accessing the yard through the back gate a piece of cake! *OUR FENCING IS NOT SUITABLE FOR VERY SMALL DOGS OR ESCAPE ARTISTS.*

Sophia's Fully Fenced 0.25 acre Yard For Dogs To Rent in the City

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Our yard is around .25 acres and fully fenced with a 6ft privacy fence. Only 5 minutes from downtown! We do have a deck (perfect for throwing that ball!) and a patio. We live on a cul-de-sac so parking can be a bit wonky but there are usually spaces available or you’re welcome to pull into our driveway if one of our cars is not there. ***please read*** There’s been a recent disturbance in the lot behind our yard, some developer is cutting down trees and possibly paving a road to a housing unit that has yet to be built. At the moment we’re not sure exactly what is happening but we are gathering more info and will hopefully have a timeline of how long this construction work will be. If your dog is afraid of loud machinery, you may want to reschedule your visit for a Sunday. As of now that seems to be the only day of the week they’re not working back there. We are very sad this is happening near our yard, as part of the reason we bought this house was the privacy we felt in our back yard. Please bare with us as we try to navigate this situation, we will post updates as we get them. We totally understand if you choose to cancel your visit!

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Welcome to our quiet, private backyard retreat located at the end of a low-traffic residential cul-de-sac in Midlothian. Perfect for solo dogs, small breeds, and pups looking for a safe, relaxed place to sniff, stretch their legs, and play off-leash without the stress of crowded public dog parks. The Space: • Fully enclosed yard featuring open grass, mature shade trees, and a concrete patio path. • Plenty of room for fetch, scent-work, and relaxing in the shade. • Direct, private side-gate access for complete contact-free entry. Amenities Provided: • Fresh water and clean water bowls. • Waste station with scooper, waste bags, and a covered trash bin. • Patio seating for humans to relax while pups explore. Safety & Fence Details (Please Review): • The perimeter is fully enclosed with a mix of tall privacy fencing and a standard 4-foot picket fence. • Best suited for: Small to medium dogs (under 45 lbs) and calm, low-jumping breeds. Not recommended for known high-jumpers or fence-climbers. • Because parts of the fence are open picket, dogs can occasionally see neighboring yards or passing cars—please supervise reactive pups. House Rules: • Up to 2 dogs per booking (from the same household). • Please pick up after your dog using the provided bags and bin. • Keep dogs leashed until fully inside the secured gate.
