Aloha Raleigh
We offer a fully fenced private backyard oasis that is perfect for both dogs and their human friends! We have 1/4 acre play yard that provides plenty of shade for our guests from the large oak tree on property. Human guests are welcome to use the outdoor chairs on the deck that overlooks play area for dogs. Deck has gates so smaller dogs can have their own secure area if needed. Muddy paws? No thanks! Our property has beautifully landscaped with turf, which is low maintenance for easy cleanup. We provide water bowls, a hose (for quick clean up if needed), and a doggy trash can. The Fire pit can be used but guests need to provider their own wood and kindling. We hope you enjoy our special retreat in the city!

King of Cary
***Naturally treat our yard in the summer so that our guests can enjoy As a rescuer, I totally understand some dogs just can't do social (myself, most of the time too), so dog park is a No. SniffSpot is an option for those special pooches. Quiet private Oasis for guests, private 100% fenced yard, sloped grass yard with 3 patio area. A lot to sniff, a lot of stairs to work out those legs. Very clean yard since I pick up after my own dogs daily. You can sit and relax or enjoy your book or bring a date. Squirrels and birds will make your visit more exciting. We're only 3 mins from Fenton, 2 mins from Downtown Cary. ***in the summer we add a baby doggie pool, fresh water, right before booking. Bring a towel if your baby loves water*** We provide a shop fan in the summer, our yard doesn't feel too hot 6-9 pm in summer is good time to come play Please msg us if you don't see any availability 😀

This is a tail-wagging wonderland a big, grassy playground that’s 100% private and fully fenced (5-foot chain link plus a 6-foot privacy fence for extra peace of mind). It’s not my personal backyard, so your pup gets the true “private dog park” experience without ever needing to pass behind my home. Whether your dog lives for endless games of fetch, zoomie marathons, or just sniffing every blade of grass, they’ll have plenty of space to run, romp, and roll. Here’s what’s waiting for you: • 🪑 Picnic table & umbrella — for comfy human supervision (or snacks between fetch rounds). • 💦 Water fun! — A hose and a kiddie pool (summer months) for splashy play and cooling off. • 🥤 Large stainless steel water bowl — always clean and ready to fill. • 🎾 Outdoor toy box — stocked with toys, treats, and other goodies for pup-approved fun. • 💩 Poop bags — because being a good dog park citizen is easy here. • 💡 Evening playtime ready — spotlight in the yard plus a streetlight out front for safe after-dark visits. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, so you might spot neighbors strolling by with their own pups or kids while you play — but your space stays private. If your four-legged best friend dreams of a safe, spacious, and playful getaway, you’ve just found it. 💚🐕 Come pawty with us at Emily’s Sniff Spot! 🐾🎉
