45Great location! There was an area that led to under a deck that wasn't covered but otherwise great time!
55Peaceful lovely yard! Both of my dogs loved it!
55Nice area for our dogs to get some energy out!
55Cute spot, a LOT of things to sniff to wear my Mocha out 😆 Host is very kind & welcoming. We will definitely be back!
55Very big fenced in yard, my puppy tired out 45 minutes in!
55My dogs had a lot of fun here! Sniffed awhile and then made themselves right at home. Lots of spaces to explore.
55Great location for exploring with lots of smells and areas to investigate. Plus, for anyone who is new to Sniffspot - Katie is an amazing hostess that is very helpful.
55Great exploring in the entire yard. Wonderful hostess that was very informative & gracious. Pepper explored the entire time and was not interested in her parents.

Description

Hello! I know you and your dog(s) will truly enjoy my backyard! I have several discount codes to bring you here for the first time, for leaving a review afterwards and for referring another guest! Some of the backyard fencing is chain link 5-6’ tall. It is mostly fenced with 7’ tall privacy fence put up specifically to avoid any interactions with neighbor dogs. The gate you will enter and exit through is directly behind and past the garage. We have TONS of mature trees providing plenty of shade and a thicker tree line in the very back where your pup can sniff and explore! Lots of open lawn area to play and/or train. We have plenty of water bowls available for you and a hose right there for you to fill with fresh water. We have patio tables and chairs if you want to chill while your pup plays. I have bottled water, soda and koolaid, just ask if your thirsty! If you need me for anything just knock on the sliding glass door. I’m usually in the room right next to itI You’re more than welcome to use our restroom. It’s right inside near the backyard. I only require about 15 minutes heads up so I can make sure my dogs are put up and inside so you can enjoy the backyard alone with your dog. I will make sure our dogs won’t be visible from the sliding glass door. Need some dog treats? I have some to share! No need to clean up your dogs poo, we pooper scoop daily!

Hello fellow dog lovers! I am also a diehard dog lover and have been since the second I took my very first breath (yup I’ve been born and raised loving and always having dogs in my life). My goal is to make your visit as awesome and fun as possible so if there is anything that you want or need before or during the visit please let me know as I try to be the hostess with the mostest. We do have 3 dogs of our own. My European Doberman, Delta, is a complete sweetheart, then we have Sky (half pit, half blue heeler) our over the top lover and face licker. And lastly we have Buster, our loving playful rat terrier. We will crate our dogs during your time here so they will be unseen and unheard for you. If you happen to need a playmate just let me know and we can assess which of our dogs has no problem playing with yours. All of our dogs are super dog friendly and get along with no problems at all. During your visit if you need anything at all just open the sliding door, pop your head in and holler! I am disabled and I’m usually binging true crime documentaries in the family room right beside the kitchen. So please let me know if there is anything at all you need we always have bottled water and usually other beverages and snacks if you need a snack! I want your visit to be the one you decide to come back as we love our repeat customers!
