Our house is the second driveway west of Rome Corners Road (coming from Route 3) on the south side of the road. GPS will take you to a house that is 3/4 houses away from ours. Our mailbox is across the road from our driveway and has a small tree growing by it. There is tall grass, pine trees, and a gate at the end of the driveway. Open the outer gate if it is closed (used to keep deer out) and leave open. The driveway is lined with large rocks. As you drive into the driveway, there will be a prairie garden on the left and goats in a pasture on the right and you will drive through a second gate, close and chain that gate. The entire property is now enclosed! You are now in the Sniffspot!! As you drive forward, you will see two gravel areas and a picnic table (looks like camping sites), park in one of those spots. Please park only on the gravel. Close the inner gate after you enter. Leave all driveway gates open when you leave. About Mama's Homestead: There is a trail that goes all the way around the property. We have goats and chickens that are enclosed in their pens. There is a small barn with a porch (you are welcome to sit on the swing rocking chairs) near the goat pastures that has a water spigot and a trash pail for you to use. We have two compost piles, one behind that barn (for barn waste) and one at the back corner of our property (for food scraps). Enjoy the covered bridge that goes over our Koi pond. We have 2 cats that might be near our back deck.

Hi, I’m Anna 👋 My rescue pup Luca and I are lucky to have a fully fenced backyard and would love to share it with you. You’re welcome to book solo playtime for your pup, or if your dog would enjoy a buddy, we can arrange for Luca to come out and play, too. We’re excited to host you! 💛 I’ve been a dog sitter for over 10 years and about 3 years ago discovered Luca is the bestest lil temporary brother ... so, now we dog sit together! He’s wonderful with other dogs and loves to share his toys, zoomies, and all the good sniffs. We do have neighbors who have a pup, so you may hear him on the other side of the fence. The gate is on the left side of the house, and will be unlocked. Give it a good push, to open. Shut it tight behind you, the lock sometimes sticks. There is a green pooper scooper next to the trash bin, and poop bags on the silver stand on the porch. If we are home, I'm happy to treat you to some coffee or tea to stay warm in the cold months. If there is anything else you need, let us know. Enjoy!

22 acres of an unfenced dog spot In Marengo

Unfenced
22 acres

Located at Grins & Pickin's CampFarm, an outdoor recreation facility located just outside of Marengo, OH. Dogs love all the smells here! We are rooted in nature! There are paths, trails, woods, a creek, a fishing pond and fields to explore, run and play. You may park in the parking lot at the back of the driveway near the outbuildings. A small trash can and water dish will be provided. There is a map of the grounds on the bulletin board and you will notice that the property is rectangle shape with half of the grounds green space and the other half wooded. If you unleash your dog, it must obey when you call it back because if it goes into the neighbor's yard, I will have to close my spot.
