HOST REPORTS

Sometimes

We do have resident dogs who live in the home—you may occasionally hear them barking or catch a glimpse of them through a window. Next door, there is a small, older dog who lives on the chain-link side of the fence. While they very rarely spend time in their backyard, I can not guarantee that they will not be there during your visit.

HOST REPORTS

Sometimes

This is generally a quiet neighborhood, and the backyard offers a good amount of privacy. While the property is located near the UNCW campus, you may see people walking by on the street, but they’ll be at a comfortable distance from the Sniffspot area.

Description

Welcome to our Private Shady Backyard Sniffspot – Just Minutes from UNCW! This centrally located Sniffspot features a spacious, fully fenced backyard bursting with natural overgrowth and shady nooks—perfect for curious pups who love to sniff, explore, and roam freely. It’s a peaceful, private space that offers a truly enriching experience for your dog. Access & Parking: To enter, head through the wooden gates and then the chain-link fence. You're welcome to park anywhere in the driveway. What Makes This Spot Special: 🌿 Pesticide- and Fertilizer-Free: We keep our yard completely free of chemicals, making it a safe and natural environment for dogs to explore. 🌳 Plenty of Shade & Vegetation: Ideal for hot days and scent-driven adventures. 💧 Hose Access: Use the hose to cool off, hydrate your pup, or enjoy a little water play—just be sure to turn it off when you're done. 🪑 Porch Seating: Chairs are typically out for your use, but if they’ve been brought in during a storm, feel free to grab them from the screened-in porch. 🦟 Bug Spray Available: Summers can get buggy! I try to keep bug spray on the porch for guests, but you're also welcome to bring your own. 💩 Clean-Up Tools Provided: Please pick up after your pup. A metal waste bin with a lid is located in the yard, and there’s a shovel available if you don’t have bags. We hope you and your pup enjoy the privacy, shade, and sniffing at Overgrown Oasis. Thank you for visiting and helping us keep the space clean and welcoming for all!

My roommate and I share this wonderful house right next to UNCW. We have 1 dog and 2 cats. We love all animals and are happy to share our yard with those that need a private, secluded space with their animal.
