55Backyard has lots of stimulating features for dogs to explore, including lots of plants and shrubs around the fence, raised patio, fire pit, and small hill to run! My dog loved exploring and playing fetch! Great spot! Very clean!
55My girl had such a great time! We will be back again :)
55Secure and secluded. Dogs has fun exploring and running around.
55My dogs had a great time sniffing around.
55Welcoming and plenty of shady and sunny spots.
55Yard was fully fenced and secure. Water available. Lots of spots for the dogs to sniff! There are dogs right next door that were in their fenced yard.
55Conveniently located and owners very responsive to my questions.
55This was a wonderful spot for the dogs to run & stretch their legs. Dogs & I were on our way to Iowa City from MN to pick my son up from College. We had so much fun playing catch with balls. Much better to have a safe & secure place for them to get a drink, run/play than trying to find an open area off the road. Thank You for sharing your backyard with us.
55This is the most secure yard we have seen in a long time. I have a Houdini husky and a vaporizing golden retriever and they were no match for their solid fencing. It was a relief and I could enjoy watching them frolic (and, of course, checking the perimeter for defects). I am thankful this host was able to accommodate my 4 dogs. They all had a great time and will sleep peacefully tonight.
55Beautiful day for a time out. Yard was perfect. Enough snow not to have a mud mess.

Hi! I am Alexis! My husband, Joe and our two dogs just bought a house in 2021! We both work in Rochester, Minnesota and love to travel! We have two rescue dogs, Porkchop and Archie who both are reactive to other dogs. We lived in apartments for years and know the importance of off leash time! We are so excited to be hosts and share our fenced backyard with other dogs!

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

We offer you access to a 1/2 acre, fully fenced, off leash area where your dog can do whatever they want. They can dig in the sandbox or dirt pile (or wherever else they would like), walk on the meandering mowed paths, climb the gigantic tree branch, hop around on the stack of straw bales, sniff the local plants, flowers and grasses, play games with their favorite person on the mowed playing field, or take a nap in the sun (or shade if you come in the beginning of the day). Come try it out. We think this is the place your dog would ask to visit if they could talk.
