55Just came from a visit to “Jeff’s Place” in North Sarasota.
Wonderful experience for the new member of our family…14 month old, rescue, “Sancho.” Large, well cared for open area—and Jeff was extremely cordial !
Highly Recommended🐕🦺😊

55Yard and facilities are great — plenty of fenced-in grassy play space, nice shade from the large trees, and ample safe, enclosed parking. Jeff and his team are so kind and welcoming. We love visiting this sniff spot and will definitely be back. Cristina B.

55We had a great time! The area is beautiful-large space to run, beautiful trees, and secluded. Jeff met us when we arrived and then left us to do our thing. He provides bowls, a pooper scooper, chairs and swings....it was awesome. My dog Mona wasn't sure what to do but we'll keep going back; she'll start to relax and play once she's comfortable. I was very impressed and highly recommend it!Meg G.

55My dog, Logan, had an awesome, stress free time. He was attacked at a dog park over a year ago and hasn’t had an opportunity to be off-leash like this since. The space was big, very well fenced, and so clean. Couldn’t have asked for anything more! We’re already planning to go back this weekend. Annie L.

55Beautiful place! It was all that my dogs love about yards :) Huge land with a few squirrels to chase, they even found a small snake to harass but I think the snake was able to escape unharmed. My dogs have some Jack Russel in their genes, therefore, finding small creatures to harass is like a gift. It was very easy to get the dogs in and out of the car too, because they allow you to drive the vehicle into the property. I loved the place and I'm looking forward to go back.
Jeff was also very nice, thank you so much for letting us enjoy your yard!Nestor R D.

All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars. If you are worried about whether you can have an enjoyable water experience, just know that it is possible to have peace of mind when visiting dog waterparks by following basic safety guidelines.
