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! Easy side-street parking on Kammankeag makes accessing the yard through the back gate a piece of cake!

    This backyard was wonderful! So many fun spots for the pups to explore and run around. Highly recommend!

  • Erik M., Sep 8, 2023

    Figgy’s yard is the perfect spot! Lots of room to play, plenty to sniff and when we arrived we found it stocked with toys and water! This is a great spot for any dog! Leah was super communicative and made us feel so welcome. Wallace absolutely loved it!

    Host replied: Please come see us again, Wallace! 😁

  • Vivienne P., Sep 5, 2023

    Such a magical yard! My pup had a great time exploring every little plant and path. 🌱

    Host replied: Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for these great photos!!! Love them!

  • Cynthia W., Aug 31, 2023

    My pups had the best time & didn’t want to leave! The yard has so much room to run around and small paths for them to explore. Leah was so nice and answered any questions I had right away. She provided toys and fresh water for the pups and mosquito repellent and fresh figs for me:) I couldn’t have asked for a better set up, we hope to make this a weekly outing for the fur babies! I can’t recommend Figgy’s yard enough!

    Host replied: Happy you all could visit our backyard play space today and look forward to your return!

  • Laura L., Aug 8, 2023

    We arrived on very short notice, the owner didn’t know we were coming until we were there! That said, there was a box of toys on the back porch, plenty of water, fun area to explore, and Phoebe was able to play with Figgy at my request for a few minutes! (Phoebe is highly social.) We had a good time and we’ll be back Friday!

    Host replied: We look forward to having you back soon!

  • Rachel J., Jun 19, 2023

    Everything was fantastic! Lots of trees for the dogs to run around and sniff in. Really appreciated the water, toys, and dog bags they left out. The walkway across the drainage ditch to enter the gate facing the street looked a little unsafe and I didnt see the secondary gate until we got in the yard. Otherwise no issues!

    Host replied: So glad you could come, Gamble and Ben! Come back any time!

  • Andrea G., Jun 5, 2023

    My pups had a wonderful time exploring, running around and sniffing! Will 100% be back

    Host replied: So glad they enjoyed Figgy's yard! Look forward to you returning!

  • Marissa M., May 21, 2023

    This place is beautiful and so much fun for the dogs to explore. Big enough yard to run but also a cool smaller wooded area just big enough for them to get “lost” in the wild 😜. Will be back again. It was great!

    Host replied: So glad everyone had a good time and enjoyed Figgy's yard! Come back anytime!

  • Rebecca N., May 18, 2023

    A mini forest in a quiet neighborhood! Grass was a bit long so I'd wear good shoes, but it had a good open space, as well as a small area with lots of brush/trees and paths. I would highly recommend, and plan to return!

    Host replied: We loved having having you all yesterday and would love to have you back!
