Jenna greeted us at the door, She's an awesome lady. I felt comfortable with my dogs being there. she gave the dogs plenty of water on this sunny day. has the cutest baby ever, awesome yard big enough to get a little run in

This was our first Sniffspot booking. Boss Bodhi had a nice time. This is better suited to medium and small dogs as just a bit smaller than we expected and the 4 foot fence could be easily jumped by my athlete (that was my overlook) We met Jenna and she was super nice. I will be booking in the future at spots with higher fences for my boys needs. Thanks for letting us visit ❤️🐾

Jasper enjoyed the nice yard. It had shady and sunny spots, as well as a nice deck. Even with the swing set, there was plenty of room. The hostess Jenna was very nice.

My dog and I had a great time!!! 6 foot wooden fence all the way enclosed. There are a couple spots with some small holes in the fence, but did not effect or play time at all. We will definitely be back!

Perfect spot for two playful pups to run around! The fence was perfectly secure. Yard was a great size, and there is a nice deck are too. We would return!

Our 2 pups had a great time running around and playing here! We had no problems at all with the fence (there was nowhere they could have gotten out), and there was lots of room to run and leaves to sniff in. We will definitely come another day.

This was our first time ever using Sniffspot and we LOVED it! Joel made sure to ask if we had any special requests or concerns (we did not). We spent an hour there and my dog LOVED it. If you have a reactive dog that’s NOT good with other dogs — please note that the neighbors on the left side of the property have a dog (cocker spaniel) and so do the ones to the back of the property (golden doodle). They are both VERY friendly dogs and my dog got along with them (with a fence between them) just fine! At the very back of the property there is some damage to one of the fence links, so if you have a large dog or one that’s the new Houdini then keep an eye out over by that area! There was fresh drinking water for my doggo and a few toys he could play with! However, he seemed much more interested in the new smells, new dogs, and peeing on everything he possibly could! Would highly recommend and we definitely be coming back! 😊

This spot was great! Joel was great and very friendly. He had water and some toys left out for the dogs. There are two neighbor dogs, but they are very friendly and played along the fence line. My dogs had a blast sniffing and exploring the yard

This was an awesome spot for our little pack of dogs to play. Plenty of room to play catch, chase each other around, and sniff. We loved that it had both an open grass area and the wooded area for exploring. We will be back again!

It was a great time for my 4 pups. They are a bit reactive as they were rescued from Detroit and my oldest from Texas, there’s a neighbor puppers but they did good for the most part. Fence is very secure. Loved the yard and trail mix. My puppers are tired out!

We had the best time letting our dogs sniff and stretch their legs. Gorgeous property just a short drive from downtown Grand Rapids. Lots of toys and water available. Will definitely be back

This was our first Sniffspot experience and it was fabulous! Joel’s communication, yard location & directions, as well as thoughtful things like water and toys were exemplary. The yard is HUGE and so fun and SAFE to roam!

Lush backyard with tons of different places to explore! Kiwi loved sniffing around and running up and down the hills. The kiddie pool was awesome as well!

Bob M.

July 2023

Our dog had a great time chasing a ball and rolling, sliding, etc. The kiddie pool was a nice doggy amenity. Our dog is large and the yard felt secure. The hostess was very friendly. We will be going back again soon ☺️

July 2023

The host was very good at communication. The yard was clean and there was so much for ronan to explore! There were dog toys and a kiddie pool as well. We do have a dog-reactive dog & the neighbor dogs at the fence were no problem with there being so much more space around the yard to distract Ronan. so much fun! will definitely come again!!

Brooke Z.

July 2023

What an awesome property! Our pups couldn’t even last the whole hour they were so SPENT from running, sniffing, leaping. The best part is how naturally shaded the yard is. This is the shadiest spot we’ve tried out yet which is a huge, huge, huge bonus when you have French Bulldogs in summer heat. Thank you for sharing your property!

Connie’s yard is wonderfully open and clean. Still big enough for my big dog to run around in! She had water thoughtfully put out along with some toys. Looking forward to returning soon!
