My dog will be kept inside and she’s an old gal so she often naps when she’s inside. I do have a cat that likes to look out the sliding glass doors (2) that look out into the yard. Our neighbors to the left of us have 2 large dogs that are sometimes outside and we share a fence line with them.

Hello! My name is Megan and I have a senior pup named Rosemary and a cat named Tarot. Rosemary enjoys our yard and we think pups of all sizes will too! 🐾🐶🦴
I have an enormous fenced-in yard. I’ve been working hard on getting it ready for doggy visitors. The ground can be a bit uneven, so please watch your steps. The gophers seems to dig holes faster than I can fill them, so running (for humans) is not advised. The best parking is at the corner and SniffSpot guests have their own gated entry at the far end of the property. Please don’t not park in front of the houses directly across the street, those neighbors are territorial about their parking spots and are not polite about it. If the private entrance is too steep for you or if the path is slick, please feel free to use the gates at the front of the house and garden entrance. The secondary gate just pushes away. The pup fountain can be used by turning on the faucet at the house, and you’re welcome to hook up and use the pup splash pad which is folded and placed on the doghouse.
Back yard is about 3/4 to an acre fully fenced. There is an above ground pool with a fence around the deck. Small dogs will be able to sneak through the pool deck fence so use caution with smaller pups. We block the deck off with all the pool junk best we can. Depending on if we are home the yard is always picked up before each guest and fresh water put out for your pup. If you need to book with shorter notice, send me a message and see if I can make accommodations. I also block time off to mow grass or if we are using the pool. A lot of the time I am done early so you can always message me and we can see if it’s available. Any questions just ask :)
$20 per hour ($15 per 30 minutes) for one dog. $5 per additional dog.
Hey everyone, My partner Wendy and I have a fully fenced (6 ft tall), private backyard (~1,700 sq ft) in East Liberty a few blocks from the Target and in the middle of the East End of Pittsburgh. We don’t use the backyard as much as we should, so we’re offering it to you and your pets! And our indoor cats, Binks and Tonks, will really enjoy seeing your dogs run around back there. We have chairs for owners, a deck for shade, toys and water for the pups, and street parking is available. We’re happy to add a place for your pets to run and play! Best, Colin and Wendy
Fully fenced backyard in a quiet neighborhood in Allison Park/McCandless. Near McIntyre Square/Passavant/McCandless Crossing. You may park in our gravel driveway or on the street. Enter the backyard via the gate and enjoy! Get out of the sun under our deck or the many tall trees bordering the yard. Please use caution in winter as everything will be snowy and slippery. The backyard and deck are not maintained in winter. If your dog likes to dig, they may dig freely under trees or under the deck. Please no digging in the grassy areas. Lots of trees, birds, squirrels, etc. to sniff. Basic table and chairs for your convenience. Dog waste and other trash may be discarded in the large black trash can marked "Trash Only" outside the gate. Dog waste bags are provided by the gate. The large deck has two bird feeders containing safflower seed. Safflower seed is NOT toxic to dogs. The bird feeders are out of reach of most dogs. The FRONT YARD is not part of the Sniff Spot. DO NOT ENTER OTHER PEOPLE'S YARDS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
You and your fur baby are very welcome to come over and spend your precious time together in my huge fenced yard
Fully fenced in agility course jumps etc. Doggy stock tank pool in the summer!
Please read this in its entirety as it gives parking info etc! Fully fenced back yard. Doggy agility course is for FUN ONLY! Please do not force your dog to participate but enjoy the obstacles. Please read each description of the obstacle and positively encourage play. We may not always be home so we have bottled water for your pups to enjoy and a bowl present for your use! If home, we will provide water in the bowl. Please park in the gravel portion of the drive and enter the yard at the gate where Snoopy is! Lock it behind you please! Extra poop bags are available and can be disposed of in the green garbage cans in the driveway. Thanks for being neat and tidy!
Dogs that are aggressive towards people ARE NOT WELCOME. I was just attacked while gardening in my front yard by a sniffspot persons dog. & I’m simply grateful my kids where not home. We ARE NOT a theropy location for aggressive dogs. Come join our journey as we restore, our newly purchased 250 year old farm, in 84 PA. We are replanting the riparian buffer to keep our waterways clean & beautiful. Planting hundreds of trees to create habitat for wildlife. & have planted thousands of jaw-dropping cute flowers.
