55This was a great spot! The fence was secure, the yard was clean, and the trashcan easy to find to dispose of our pet's waste. My dogs had enough space to play fetch and spend the the visit sniffing without getting bored. Parking was easy and we didn't see any people or other dogs, although we heard the neighbor dogs as noted by the owner so we knew that upon booking. They barked on and off for our visit, but the privacy fence provides excellent visual barrier and my highly reactive dog didn't even care. Definitely reccommend if you have a not-so-friendly dog that prefers privacy! Host pre-filled a water bowl for our girls, and there were a couple toys as well for them. We were able to refill the water bowl from the hose spigot which was easy to find.
55One of my new favorite yards! So spacious, great fence and neighborhood. Supplied extra toys, poop bags, and water.
55My baby loves the place. I really appreciate the water bowl and tuff ball she left in the yard. We visited the spot on a rainy day, so I prepared a towel my own but Farah was so sweet that she also left one on the back for us. Thank you for hosting. Look forward to visit again.
55Farrah’s spot was great! She had plenty of toys, water, etc. It rained on the day I went and she left out a towel too. My dog had such a good time!
55Great spot!!
55Super clean and spacious yard! I also appreciated that Farrah left clear directions on where to park and left the back gate open which was so helpful since I was handling two dogs! Really appreciated the dog toys, water bowl and doggie bags!

Attention: we will be closed January 5th - 12th for construction of a privacy fence along the side with our neighbor with dogs. We hope this will minimize distractions and noise from them for our guests. Thank you for continuing to be the best group of guests we could ask for! Large fenced in backyard with trees, shrubs, a shaded area, and multiple seating options. Plenty of room to run around and play. We are for 2 hour advanced booking to allow us time to coordinate prepping the space and clean up if we are working outside. Please reach out to me if you have any questions.

Welcome to our quiet .25-acre fully fenced private yard! Enjoy dog water, doggie pool, 2 Jolly herding balls, tree tugging ropes, and chuck-it balls/toys. There are also plenty of sticks to chew on and squirrels to chase! For human guests, we’ve got everything you need to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Outdoor chairs, a fan, a hammock, shade, sun, bug spray, poop bags. Our neighborhood is known for its tranquility, and we respect your privacy. **Just a friendly reminder: please don’t jump on the trampoline.** We’re right off the highway close to downtown but far enough away that you will feel in the country!

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 he’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!

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!

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.

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.*
