55My dogs had a great time. Cheryl was the best to work with!
55I dog loves digging through the toys and trying them all out. This spot is always clean and secure.
55Very nice and clean space for my dog to run and explore!
55This yard was great! The yard was flat so great for zoomies and playing fetch without worrying about injury, and the owner left plenty of toys outside in case you don’t have any. The owner was also great about communicating instructions and what was available, and left a water bowl out for us with instructions to get fresh water. Our pup loved it! 😊
55Secure and clean and quiet. And no mud and did I say clean. No searching through leaves for “prizes.” Nice and roomy for zoomies and fetch and whatever games we want to play.
55We had the best time! It was my pups first time getting to be off leash and free and he had a blast stretching his legs! 🖤
55Awesome place for our dogs to run and play. This backyard is so beautiful and clean that my dogs enjoyed running and playing with the toys that were there. We will definitely have to come back.
55Plenty of room to run and play. Great yard!
55Big, Clean, easy to access, my pup has a great time! Will be back for sure
55The Nature Nook is a 5 star experience for dogs and humans alike! Beautiful, fully fenced back yard with fresh water and plenty of toys! Secure and safe! Comfortable furniture and plenty of shade to stay cool. Highly recommend! Two very tired dogs ready to sleep the afternoon away!

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

97% 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.

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.
