55This is an amazing space! We loved the beautiful, clean yard and all the shade when it came time for the pups to take a break. I will be making this our regular spot for sure.
55Great clean cut yard! Perfect for fetch! Dogs inside were a little distracting for my dog at first, but he quickly got used to it.
55Beautiful open space. The property owner was very pleasant and welcoming
55Great sniff spot! My dog was able to run around and get some outdoor play area in. The yard was very clean and there was a water hose available for water. There’s also a large seating area to watch your pets play.
55Very open. Our 11 month old pup had the time of his life.
55Beautiful yard - Sushi loved playing fetch here. She's currently dead asleep on the floor, so safe to say that we'll probably be back again
55We just love this Sniffspot. We come back again and again.
55So thankful that Erika was able to accommodate our last minute booking. It’s a great space and perfect for fetch. There are other dogs in the neighborhood and you will hear them more than Erika’s dogs, but other than that it’s a great space.
55Great spot! Clean and so much room to run around.
55This is our new favorite spot in the Richmond area! Very clean, easy to access, and so much space for my dogs to run and play. They had a blast, and we will definitely be back!

Sometimes

You may hear dogs from the far back corner barking. My neighbors to the left when you walk in have a puppy that you may hear if she is outside. My dogs will be inside during scheduled sniffs. One of my dogs may bark the first few minutes but I will make sure all blinds are closed facing the yard which will help reduce that.

Fall 2024 Updates: With the rainy weather mushrooms may be present, we do our best to dispose of them but if you see them don't let your dog eat them as they can cause GI upset or be harmful. It's also acorn drop season and our large oak tree is dropping a lot of them. Acorns are not safe for dogs to eat. If your dog likes to eat stuff our yard might not be the best fit during this season. We want our pup friends to have a safe fall. If you post a photo with your first or next review we'll give you a free visit promo code! (one time only) Hi! I'm Alyssa, a rescue dog owner with a ~1/3 acre yard perfect for your dog to enjoy! We have a mix of gardens, grass, mulch, and leaf areas great for sniffing and playing fetch and a bin full of fun toys and treats. We have a special basket of small dog toys upon request. We provide cold water for humans, bug spray, and hand sanitizer. We spray our yard every 5 weeks with a natural oil mix to help reduce mosquitos, fleas, and ticks. Reactive dog owners should note that our neighbors on both sides have dogs that may or may not be outside during your visit. They are all friendly but will probably bark. (No dogs live in the yard with the chain link but there are visible dogs two yards over) We provide a bucket of extra treats to help with training and distraction. Our girl loves a "sniffari" where you hide treats around the yard to sniff out. ⭐️ Important notes ⭐️ 🐶 All dogs must be FULLY vaccinated (Rabies, Parvo, Bordetella, DHPP) Please do not book unless you are sure your dog has all their shots. Puppies less than 4 months old that are still building up vaccines should stay at home. ⭐️ Dogs MUST be leashed when entering and exiting the yard. Our neighbor across the street has a few outdoor cats we want to keep safe. 🍃 Please do not let your dog eat or chew any of the plants in the yard. No excessive digging. 🌻 Please do not enter the gated garden area on the other side of the house. We keep our quail coop and turtle enclosure in this area and don't want them startled. Feel free to look in from the gate though. 🍺 Per Sniffspot's rules, no alcohol is allowed, and please no smoking.
