55Lots of places for the dogs to sniff around and explore. My dogs were so happy! I loved sitting in the woods enjoying the fall weather.
55Such a fun yard. We also booked some extras (dog and human interaction) to provide my dog with a friend to run with and to aid in the introduction. Figgy and Mustang had a great time and it was nice to chat with Leah as well.
55This is such a beautiful space it's no wonder it's so popular! My dogs had an amazing hour exploring and playing ball. We hope to visit again.
55My dog really enjoyed her time at Figgy's Private Sniff and Play Wonderland! There was plenty of clean and safe areas to explore. The yard is bigger than it appears from the street with an open lawn area, decks, and wooded areas. Nice alternative to a long walk, plus a couple seats in the shade for me!
45Great place for dogs to explore
55Great spot
55One of the most beautiful backyards you could ever imagine :-) really a beautiful treat.
55Excellent mix of places to run and hidden spots to sniff. Our two dogs loved exploring and we appreciated the mix of sun and shade. Plenty of places to sit. Very clear instructions. Looking forward to our next visit!
55We had so much fun! Poppy loved running around in the wooded area and sniffing around everywhere. We will definitely come back, thank you so much!
55Always beautiful! Favorite spot for sure.

Description

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.*

We moved here partly because we love the huge wild backyard and proximity to Cheswick Park. We added a fence for our dog and are excited to share the space with you! All are welcome! ๐Ÿ™‚โ™ฅ๏ธ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ•

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.

Fully fenced (4 foot fence) yard with a large pond (no swimming for dogs). Lots of space to run around and some fun paths and wooded areas. We do have neighbors with a dog, but heโ€™s not always out. Neighbors also walk their dog in our neighborhood just in case you have a very dog reactive pet. Just wanted to mention these things as we have had a review or two mention the dog interactions when coming in. Please park in the court if there are cars in the driveway! Thanks for coming!

Your Pup's 0.4 Acre Private (Fully Enclosed 6 Foot Fence) Park In Lakeside!

Fully Fenced

Please come let your pups run around in our large Lakeside yard! Our 3 pups (sometimes 4 if we have a foster) love all the open space, so we hope yours will too. We will try to always leave a towel and some little treats up on the deck, so youโ€™re more than welcome to help yourself to anything up there! There should be a bucket of toys, poop baggies in a ziploc bag that are likely inside of the weatherproof tub by the deck stairs, a pooper scooper and a hose etc, so please feel free to use any of it as needed.
