We didn't get to go because I looked at the distance wrong, but Savannah was very kind about it and even told us what the weather was going to be like that day! Very kind!

Absolutely excellent! My boyfriend and I’s dogs had a grand time. The fence is super well built, very high, with no cracks for dogs to squeeze or see between. The lawn was IMMACULATE with a large deck to provide extra shade, and a great water hose so your pups can get a drink or cool off. We will for sure be returning!!!

House is located in a cul-de-sac and very easy to access! I parked on the road right in front of their home and accessed the gate easily. I brought my own water but it seems like theres access to water! Huge clean yard and lots of space to run around! We will definitely come back!

Grass was cut short and fence looked super nice. This is a good sized yard for medium to large dogs! Great experience.

Convenient location and very private yard. It was a nice break for us to just sniff and play (we love our walks, but we have to train/counter-condition dog fear reactivity on every walk and mom gets tired sometimes). Thanks Galen for making your yard available!

Sky loved her visit! She’s a little shy at first but warmed up quickly and got to run. Lots of things to explore and the host was very helpful and responsive—even left treats, bags and water for us! Will be back!
