Description

Does life feel “ruff” sometimes? Maybe it’s time to run free in an enclosed private backyard with lots of grass. Or are you looking to “make your mark” in this world? Or perhaps you just want to “paws” and relax in the shade. If so, then Shaggy’s Shack Sniffspot is for you....and your awesome human, too! Shaggy’s Shack in Tempe has lots of grass for running, chasing balls, and doing the zoomies! It’s fully enclosed with a 5 to 6-foot block wall and more than 25 trees and bushes to explore. You can play fetch with tons of toys and there’s a designated digging spot, too. Or maybe you just want to cool off in a diving pool that’s professionally cleaned every Wednesday–even during Tempe’s cold months. Oh, and Shaggy’s Shack also has features shaded chairs for your human to relax as they watch you explore, play fetch, swim, and have a pawsitively good time. Shaggy’s Shack’s residents (and their humans) will be home but out of sight. The entire lot is just shy of a half-acre, and it’s conveniently located in Tempe. Many dogs live in the area, they may bark in greeting when they hear you. We offer many pawsome amenities at Shaggy’s Shack, including bags and a trash can for your nature calls and a disposable water dish with lots of fresh water (and water for your human, too). Clean towels for drying off after you’ve doggie-paddled in the pool are also provided. Of course, use of the pool is at your and your human’s own risk. The pool is chlorinated and not heated in the winter months. Your human may use the pool to get a closer look at your pawsome doggie paddling technique. While we provide towels for you, we ask that your human brings their own towels. There is no fence or gate around the pool, and we strongly encourage you to bring your own doggie life vest if you do decide to get your paws wet. Discounts are available for multiple dogs. Visit times can be extended if there is availability. Respecting Sniffspot’s 30-minute transition time between visit times is very important. So that no one gets hurt or gets into something that could be dangerous, glass, alcohol and smoking are prohibited. All pups need to be up-to-date on all vaccinations to keep our resident and visiting doggos healthy. Since Shaggy’s Shack Sniffspot is for dogs, please be mindful of your doggie to human ratio; kids are welcome but must be 100% supervised, especially around the ungated, unfenced pool. Our goal is to make your time at Shaggy’s Shack loads of fun for you and your human so you’ll come back again and again. We’re sure you’ll need a long cat nap after a furbulous visit to Shaggy’s Shack! What are you waiting for? Stop chasing your tail and schedule your time at Shaggy’s Shack Sniffspot today! We’re sure you’ll have a pawesome time!

We are huge dog lovers and the owners of wonderful dogs over the years. Shaggy, a lab mix, was quite the escape artist frequently found hanging out with the musicians on Mill Avenue until we moved here 25 years ago. He realized how good he had it with a huge backyard, a cool pool and lots of nature to explore. Over the years we’ve been blessed with a Lab, a Golden, Border Collies and Chihuahua mixes. Most of our pups have been rescues and yes, it is true, they did rescue us. Because of all the unknowns at dog parks and the pawsome feeling of seeing dogs run free, we are so happy to share our big backyard with pups and their “furbulous” humans. We hope you enjoy your visit at Shaggy’s Shack!

Massive 1.3-Acre Private Oasis with Commercial Pool & Waterfall

Fully Fenced

1 acre

Welcome to a rare 1.3-acre sanctuary! If you’re looking for room to run and a place to cool off, this is one of the largest private dog parks in the area. Our space is fully fenced and designed for both high-energy play and ultimate relaxation. Our centerpiece is a commercial -sized pool, featuring a waterfall, a diving board for the brave pups, and a dedicated lounge area. Please note(Warm weather Pool Access): To maintain the highest standards of water quality and safety, the pool is now a premium add-on feature. Why the extra fee? Doggy paddles are fun, but they require significantly more maintenance, specialized cleaning, and a higher balance of skin-safe chemicals to keep the water pristine for everyone. If you’d like to include the pool access in your visit, please ensure you select the extra add on feature during booking.

Scottsdale Pawty House

Fully Fenced

Welcome to our backyard oasis! Feel free to use all the seating, umbrellas, and pool at your convenience. Conveniently located right off the Loop 101 in South Scottsdale! 🏝️Our pool has steps leading in, but it does get deep (about 8-9ft). Please be sure that any dogs/humans using the pool know how to swim. Safety is our top priority! Our pool cleaner comes every week on Friday afternoons. If you book during this time, please be aware of this. 🎾There are toys for your use by the entrance gate. Please try to put the toys back in the basket before you leave! Toys are welcome to be used in the pool as well. 💧 There is a bowl on the back wall next to our hose for dogs to drink from. The bowl is refilled in the mornings, but if you would like fresh water, please feel free to refill the bowl with our hose. Just be sure to turn the hose off after use. 🚫The concrete blocks around the yard are there for important reasons. They are either holding down umbrellas or are covering holes in the yard. Please DO NOT move the blocks for any reason. They are there for your safety. 💩There are poop bags in the green planter on the large glass table. Please pick up after your pooch and throw the used bags away in the black trash bin located to the left of the entrance gate. Clean beach towels will be folded on the chairs closest to the entrance gate. If you use a towel, please hang it on the back of any chair so that we know it is dirty and needs to be washed. Swim, run, and have fun!!!

0.18 acres

🐾 Welcome to our Sniffspot! 🐾 We’re proud to be part of the rescue community, and every booking helps support our rescue efforts and the animals we love. ❤️🐶🐱 ☀️🌙 Because Arizona summers are hot, we happily offer evening visits too! Our 0.18-acre yard gives pups plenty of room to run, play, and explore. 🏊‍♀️ Our dog-friendly pool features easy-entry steps and a shallow lounging area, and you’re welcome to swim alongside your pup! The pool reaches a maximum depth of about 5 feet. If you’ll be bringing 🚨 children who cannot swim 🚨, please let us know after booking. ✨ At night, the pool lights up! Choose classic white or colorful changing lights after booking. Patio lighting keeps the yard bright for safe and fun evening visits. 🎾 Whether your pup loves fetch, zoomies, swimming, or simply relaxing, there’s something for everyone. Feel free to bring a speaker and enjoy your favorite music while you unwind. 👥 Reservations include up to 2 adults per dog. Additional adult guests are welcome for a $10 fee per person. 🧹 Please help us keep the yard clean by picking up all trash, belongings, and used dog treats before leaving. Gum must be disposed of in the poop trash can only and should never be left on the patio, sidewalks, pool steps, or landscaping rocks. Unfortunately this is a big issue for us.😢 ☂️ Please do not adjust or move the pool umbrella. Unfortunately, we've had to replace it multiple times due to damage, and we'd love to keep it available for everyone to enjoy. ⚠️ The slide is currently cracked and unavailable for use. Thank you for understanding! Thank you for supporting rescue while giving your pups a safe place to play!
