Great spot in a convenient location. The yard is a little crowded with a pool, shed, greenhouse, fire pit, etc. but had a little room to run around and plenty of toys to play with.
Host replied: Thank you for your feedback. We do keep chairs and tables in the yard since we also utilize it, and visitors (often multiple people) will have seating while their dogs play. The shed, pool, and fire pit are visible in the pictures so visitors will see the space before visiting. Hope you come again in the Fall (several items will be removed for additional space Oct thru April or May). Thank you.
What a beautiful welcoming doggie retreat
Host replied: Thank you! Please visit again.
Great little spot to play with my dog. She loved the toys and kiddie pool.
Host replied: I appreciate your great 5 star review. Thanks!
Great space, our dogs loved to play!!
Host replied: Thank you very much. My yard will be available more often on weekends soon and throughout the Fall, Winter and early Spring so hope you'll come again.
We had an awesome time training for our nosework competition at Melissa’s! Thank you!
Host replied: So glad I could be a part of this and the training. Hope the competition went really well.
We had so much fun! Lots of stuff for my boy to do and explore. He absolutely loved the kiddie pool and the treats. We will definitely come by again! Also nice and quiet
Host replied: So glad you enjoyed! Hope you can come to visit again this Fall.
What a great spot! Super accessible and our dogs loved all the toys. Will definitely utilize again 🙂
Host replied: Look forward to having you. Thanks for the awesome review!
This was a wonderful spot with plenty of good sniffs for our dog! This spot was supplied with toys, treats (both chomps for the dog, and candies and cold water/soda for the humans), water bowls (our dog apparently likes options), a kiddie pool, seating for us, space to run and play, and most importantly the area was thoughtfully fenced in with nothing for our dog to get into. We hope to come again soon!
Host replied: Thanks for the positive feedback. I love knowing that people and their pups enjoy some time in a safe space. Hope you can visit again!
We were so pleased with this SniffSpot! My dogs really enjoyed the space, the toys, the kiddie pool, and sprinkler! We brought our own bubbles because my dogs love them but the yard was great for chasing and popping them!
Host replied: Bubbles! What a great idea... I may have to look into bubble machines. So glad you came by with your pups.
Awesome space, and super responsive and sweet host! The yard was awesome, and Melissa is so kind!
Host replied: Thank you for your kind words. So happy you and your pup enjoyed your visit.
