Private Dog-Friendly Pool with Easy Entry Steps & Fully Fenced Yard 🐾💦
Welcome to our private, dog-friendly pool and fully fenced backyard! 🐶💙 What makes this spot special is the easy pool entry with wide steps so dogs can comfortably get into the water, stand, splash, rest, and build confidence at their own pace. This is a great spot for dogs who already love to swim, but it’s especially nice for dogs who are new to the water or prefer to stay where they can comfortably touch and rest. The pool has wide entry steps and a ramp, giving dogs an easy way to get in and out of the water. They can stand on the steps, splash, cool off, take breaks, or slowly build confidence before swimming. 💙 🐶 Why dogs love this spot: • Easy pool entry with wide steps and a ramp • Great for beginner and experienced swimmers • Plenty of room to splash, swim, or simply enjoy the water • Fully fenced yard with no gaps for private off-leash play • Fresh drinking water and treats available 💦 Pool features: • Private swimming pool reserved for your visit • Heated on request — please message me when booking • Professionally maintained and cleaned regularly • Easy entry and exit for dogs 🌿 For the humans: • Comfortable outdoor seating • Indoor restroom available • Private, peaceful backyard setting • Great for relaxing while your dog plays and swims Your reservation is private, so you and your dog can enjoy the space without sharing it with other guests. First time here? I’m happy to show you around when arranged in advance and help your dog get comfortable with the pool setup. Please supervise your dog around the pool at all times, keep the pool gate closed, and clean up after your pup. Dogs and people use the pool at their own risk. Come swim, splash, play, cool off, or simply let your pup explore the water at their own pace. We can’t wait to host you! 🐕💦☀️

Oakland backyard for your doggy to run!
I have a large space that I am sure a dog will love to run in. In the winter, post rain, it can get VERY muddy back there. Years of dogs running around has torn up a lot of the ground cover and it's now just dirt, which becomes mud in the winter. In the summer, the "grass" (more weeds than actual grass) gets very dry. There are some burrs due to the dryness so if your dog has longer fur they might get some attached to them. I do my best to weed the weeds that produce them, but there still might be some. It's a fairly large open space with a longer run on the side. Also, I want to note that in the back of the property the fence is lower, around 4/4.5 feet (the rest of the yard is at least 6 feet), so if your dog is a good jumper, this could be an issue. Happy playing!

Quiet garden sanctuary in the city.
A lot of vegetation and places to sit down, meditate, read a book, study, or have a picnic. Your pup will love to run and play in our one-acre garden. Picking fruit or vegetable etc. is off the limit. Drinking water for animals is provided in various containers throughout the property. Please do not turn on or use any water equipment on our property - we had some serious problems in the past because of this. Please clean up after your dog’s “business” - smile. That’s a serious and mandatory request. Poop bags are available in the plastic box with the other dog gear, but please bring your own backup supply just in case and do not leave the poop bags behind. BROWN garbage can is in the front of the house by the street for your convenience. Thank you! Woof woof! 🌸 Note: in the rainy season we might not change the water for dogs because it’s senseless. Please arrive always with your own supply of water - rain or shine - and if it’s raining you might like to wear rain boots as well. Have fun!

Tracey's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In San Leandro *TEMPORARILY PAUSED*
**Temporarily pausing services starting August 2026. We appreciate your patience & understanding.** Please do not block neighbors’ driveways or walk on neighboring lawns/property. We value our neighbors and appreciate your help in respecting their homes while visiting our Sniffspot.

Edit 6/16/25: We have regularly scheduled landscaping which will hopefully help with foxtails. Please remember this is a yard and not a dog park. Edit 9/27/25: Please do not block any driveways including ours when finding parking. Edit 6/2/26: The calendar has been updated to reflect availability on week days from 7am-6pm.

Sam's Fully Fenced Yard for Dogs To Rent in San Jose
I look forward to welcoming you to one of the best Sniffspots in the area. My backyard offers a comfortable, private space for dogs to play and for you to relax and enjoy your visit. Homes in my neighborhood are close together, and I strive to be respectful of my neighbors. Occasional barking is, of course, normal, but if your dog is likely to bark continuously throughout the visit, this Sniffspot may not be the best fit.

Private swimming hole in the redwoods. Please read all "rules" and all "access instructions" after booking.
This is a private, undeveloped, forested spot. If you are interested in this spot, you and your dog should be up for a mini adventure. This spot is not a manicured, backyard park. It is wild and beautiful, and a rare find in this area. THERE IS NO TRASH SERVICE AT THIS FOREST LOCATION. PACK EVERYTHING OUT WITH YOU, INCLUDING DOG POOP BAGGIES. The trail starts at the west (downhill) end of the parking spot, and winds downhill to the creek (there are a couple of switchbacks). The trail from the parking area to the creek is less than 5 minutes long. At the bottom of the trail, is a deck. Beyond the deck is a year-round creek with a swimming hole. There are fish, frogs, newts, and crawdads. All wildlife is protected, so please don't catch or remove them. You may walk up and down along the creek exploring, as long as you turn around before the bend that is downstream. The trail that leads downhill to the creek is intermediate, not for beginners or flip-flops. There should be no poison oak or ticks on the trail, but if you venture off the trail, you may encounter poison oak or ticks. There are blackberry bushes to the sides of the trail that resemble poison oak. There should be no foxtails. You may see wild animals. As a wild spot, you may encounter typical hazards that are present in most local forest trails, such as wildlife, water, and trip-and-fall hazards. This is a private spot, and there should be no other people or dogs during your booking. If you see someone during your booking, please let us know as soon as possible, so that we can take steps to prevent them from trespassing again. There is no lighting at this spot, so if you book before sunrise or after sunset, please bring a headlamp or flashlight. Maximum 2 people per dog. There is no trash collection service at this location, so please pack out any trash. Thank you!
