It was the perfect spot for us. I have an older gentleman that's not too fond of people. The fence allow privacy and yet there was enough room to play. Definitely a good spot for the purpose. It was very clean and well maintained. I'm certain we will visit again. Thank you for sharing your "spot" with us. Debbie & Danny

We’ve been coming to Kelly’s spot since May ‘22. It is one of the few spots we book time and time again. We love it!

My dog and I really enjoyed this spot. We went for the first time the other day and had a great time. The area was large enough and maintained well, perfect for my medium-sized dog to run around.

First time I’ve been able to let my dog off leash since adopting him in March! The yard is a great size to introduce a dog to listening and recall off leash for the first time. The fence is plenty high and sturdy I wasn’t worried about him getting distracted and damaging anything or getting out.

Not a lot of shade, but plenty of room for play and fetch. The porch table and chairs were nice.

Kelly’s yard is wonderful. added perk of some nice outside seating and shade! a little tricky to figure out where to enter, but Kelly was responsive and kind. would definitely revisit.

Had a wonderful time with my almost 10 lb Yorkie. She loved the amount of space she got to run, and played with her squeaky toys. Our goal is help her lose weight and this was perfect. Next time we’re bringing her sibling a shihtzu to run with Oh and bonus: table and chairs for meeeee 😊👍

Kelly’s is an easy spot to play at - always clean, fence is perfect for escape artists and the space is accessible.

Very easy spot to access downtown and quiet. Perfect size to get my old guy movin and not be overwhelmed.

Nice property, fairly clean, and easy to find.. Only issue that I ran into was the size of the property. It's long but not as wide which made some challenges using the "flirt stick". We would definitely come back again!

Rollie loved zooming back and forth in the yard. He felt safe with the high fence and plenty of room to explore. Easy and convenient enter/exit and very clean. We will definitely be back!

I was nervous as this is my first time using the website. However once I was there it was great! The yard was the perfect size for my dog to play catch. Additionally the house cast a shadow which meant there was a shaded table area and also the sunny yard. Overall a wonderful experience!

Kelly’s spot was great! It was well maintained and had enough room for our puppy to run! There is a patio with some seats to sit and watch your pup play! The patio did have some loose rocks so be mindful if your pup is in the rock eating/chewing stage like ours. It was a great space though and we will be back! ☺️

We really enjoyed our first visit to Kelly’s yard!! And Grover had his first chance to run off leash! It was a great time. And the yard was super safe.

Thanks for letting us use your yard! Nice shade umbrella at table for the human. Helpful tip for this yard: make sure to take a dog bowl with you.

Such a cute spot, my two husky’s enjoyed it very much! Good amount of running and throwing space if your dog likes to play fetch. Safe and secure fencing along with very nice neighbors!
