Description

🚗 LOCATED IN SYKESVILLE, MD (Carroll County) ** The pool is not available to guests at this time. ** 🐾 Bringing 3 or more dogs? Message us prior to booking for a discount code! 🐕🐩🐕‍🦺 Large open, fenced-in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. There is lots of space for your dog(s) to run, and ample room to play fetch. There is plenty of outdoor seating to relax while you watch your dog(s) play and explore. The back right corner of the yard has a play area with a playhouse, caterpillar tunnel, tire tunnel, climbing cube, and hammock. We also have a bunch of dog toys out. Part of our yard is shady and part is sunny. You get the best of both worlds. The pool is completely fenced off from the rest off the yard. You don’t have to worry about your dog(s) accidentally falling in. Our yard is handicap accessible. There are no stairs to climb. The entrance to the backyard is a flat grassy area. The gate leading to the back yard is wide enough for a wheelchair or power chair. The yard has a slight incline, but there are no major obstacles that would prevent a wheelchair from moving around. We are located in Sykesville, MD which is about 30 mins from Baltimore and Columbia. 15 minutes from Owings Mills, Ellicott City, and Westminster.

    This is a great backyard! The fence is secure and high all the way around which gave me peace of mind to relax and let the dogs run free. The setting felt private and there was plenty of comfortable seating. The dog playground was cute and there were bowls for water and toys/balls to throw. We will definitely return! Thank you for sharing your yard with us!!

    My first Sniffspot experience and it was amazing! Super clear instructions, well appointed area and secure fence. 10/10 would return!

  • Lane Brooke F., Sep 10, 2023

    This was a fantastic spot. Shade and sun, and lots of space. Very clean, organized, and easy to find. The cooler with water to fill dog bowls was especially nice. Thanks for providing a great spot!

  • Sandra S., Sep 7, 2023

    The site was as advertised. My lab enjoyed checking out all the smells and a quiet romp on a hot day

  • Gabi S., Sep 3, 2023

  • Michelle B., Aug 13, 2023

    A great enrichment location for pets to explore safely. The gates are high and lots of space for a dog to run!

    Host replied: Thanks for the great review! Hope you come back again soon!

  • Tara U., Aug 12, 2023

    Great spot with seating, water for the dogs, and shade!

  • Lauren J., Aug 11, 2023

    Levi had a wonderful time. He was able to be a dog. Relaxed and exercised with no stress. He listened to all the noises of the neighborhood safely. Which helped me to not be stressed. We will be back!

    Host replied: So glad you had a stress free visit! Thank you and come again soon :)

  • Caroline R., Aug 8, 2023

    Absolutely perfect spot for the dogs to have a blast! Thank you!

My husband and I own two bully breeds who are both reactive. We know the pain of taking reactive dogs to dog parks, but we also just don't like dog parks in general. When we heard about Sniff Spot we knew we wanted to open up our large fenced-in yard to help other dog owners with reactive dogs, or ones that also just don't like dog parks.

Hello fellow pet parents! We have a total of three lush green acres available for your beloved pet friends to explore. The space is fully-fenced. Our fence is a 3.5 foot high cattle fence with wire mesh. The entrance to our spot is a large metal swing gate. The spot has cut short-grass. There are lots of deer among other animals in the area so your dog can have their own sniffing adventure! No need to worry if your dog is reactive because these animals usually keep their distance. We have digging areas, bottomless water bowls and poop bags. We also have some wood planks that could possibly be used for agility jumps (See pictures). You can enjoy a nice nap on the hammock, sit at the picnic table, or just relax on the lawn chairs while watching your pup. Enjoy a cup of coffee, soft drink or h2o while your lovely pet is enjoying their free time. Wet wipes, hand sanitizer, sunscreen, paper towels and a trash can will be provided as well. The area is quite tranquil; you can enjoy birds chirping or even meditate. Portable lawn chairs are also accessible. It’s a perfect place to take some time off from daily life struggles and relax; both for you and your furry friend! Shady spots are available during any time of the day if you don’t like to be under the sun. We would love to see your furry friends enjoying our yard. Please feel free to share their pictures at the spot! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out!

Urban Oasis - Astroturf play and agility space (no muddy paws ever)

Over 4200 square feet of Astroturf play area conveniently located adjacent to the BWI airport (less than a 5 min Uber ride away). The yard is surrounded by wooden privacy fencing so your pups can focus on playing! Astroturf provides a soft, plush, clean surface so even wet dogs don’t get dirty during their stay (perfect if you’re waiting on a flight or traveling with your pup). Aluminum gazebo to protect you from the elements, and a separate covered sitting area to keep guests shaded. Space is equipped with agility equipment including an a-frame, adjustable jump, tunnel, agility stakes, and back tie. The space also has various toys, kiddie pools/dog activated water fountain/hose in the summer to keep dogs cool . There is a metal tug toy assembly in the tree, but you’ll need to bring your own toy to hook into it (we go through the toys too fast to keep replacing 😂). If coordinated in advance (and with owner supervision) you can even use the slat mill for an extra physical challenge. If you’re bringing a young puppy out please message us directly so we can put out the ball pit. The space is equipped to be used in the dark and has many solar motion activated lights along the fence, solar lights on the pergola, and a lit walkway leading up to the gate. The best travel companion is a happy/tired pet. As the weather gets nicer you may see some neighbors on your way in and may hear them while in the yard. You may also hear the normal neighborhood noises and the occasional cluck of a chicken (there are 🐓 next door; however, the privacy fence is slated, the fence is over 8ft tall, and the turf is on a hard rock pack so they aren’t super visible and they’d be EXTREMELY hard to get to). No dogs live in the yards adjacent to the fence so you rarely hear barking; however, we occasionally take in reactive board and trains. In the extremely rare case one of our houseguests barks and disturbs your peace during the visit let us know and we will make it right. On most hot days the turf gets warm in direct sunlight. Typically we will spray it down between guests if we are home. However, please check the turf intermittently and spray down as desired. The turf has an infill that causes significant evaporative cooling once its sprayed down. The small red cooler typically has water for the humans! Please help yourselves! Please no smoking 🚭 anywhere on the property. Cigarettes could damage our turf (extremely expensive to fix) and poison dogs.
