Location

Description

Almost a half an acre completely fenced-in yard (to the ground so even 5-lb dogs can’t escape) in a quiet neighborhood near 23 and Mound. Grass is kept short and natural. Never any poisonous pesticides or fertilizer used. All Natural! Seating and doggie pool available (request pool is emptied before leaving and not filled more than half or you can’t tip over to empty). No dogs in surrounding yards. Great for big and small dogs! Lots of trees and shrubbery to give you a private oasis. Please close the gate when leaving. Note: I bought my house with a large after one of my dogs was attacked at a dog park causing 2 surgeries and very expensive vet bills. Enjoy my yard with piece of mind.

Cleanliness

95% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

Just be careful if you see any mushrooms pop up. I typically try to pull them out cause I don’t want my dogs eating them either.

    Very nice big yard. My dogs had so much fun! They are very curious so I loved that they could explore with all the plants and trees. There was a whole basket of dog toys to use and convenient trash to pick up after your dogs. Will 100% come back!

  • Mollie K., Mar 7, 2023

    Nice, big yard for my dog to run around in without the threat of reactivity. He loved sniffing and running around. I felt safe and comfortable being there with him and would go back.

  • Ashlee W., Mar 4, 2023

    We loved this!!! The girls had the best time in this huge space! The host thought of everything too; you could sit on the little patio space, they had toys for the pups, a water bowl, hand sanitizer by the poop station that had a foot pedal trash can, their dogs were put away, and the owner gave great instructions about the entrance and exit!

  • Delyssa C., Mar 4, 2023

    Nice big yard! My dogs enjoyed running around and playing catch. Will come again.

  • Alyssa S., Feb 26, 2023

    This spot was perfect for our dog. He had such a good time! The yard was just as described, very well kept and spacious. He especially enjoyed the shared toys and fresh water. We are looking forward to booking again in the future!

    Great yard! Plenty of running room to chase a ball or frisbee.

  • Marissa D., Feb 17, 2023

    My puppy’s had an AWESOME time! So much space to roam! The yard is lovely, my puppy’s didn’t wanna leave! The owner was great, making sure I was comfortable and set out a bowl of water.

  • Anna S., Feb 12, 2023

    Really enjoyed our time. Very clean and comfortable atmosphere. Thanks!

  • Sydney H., Feb 11, 2023

    Clean and nice. The hosts cat is also extremely adorable and over saw our visit from the window

    Host replied: Haha. If it was the whitish one, he was probably jealous cause he likes to be in the yard. Glad you had a good experience. Hope to see you again soon.

Hi! I wanted to try this and allow people to use my nice natural yard. I love seeing dogs so happy as they run and play in a fully-fenced safe yard free of pesticides. They are so happy … and when dogs are happy, I am happy. I bought a small house with a nice yard after one of my dogs was attacked at a dog park for playing fetch and had her side ripped open which needed 2 surgeries. After that I was done with dog parks and bought a big yard.
