Description

Come sniff and play at our fully fenced in yard conveniently located on the southside of the river near Westover Hills. Grab a morning coffee treat ☕️ from Blanchard’s and come play or stop by in the evening to get some energy out before happy hour at the Veil. 🍻 We have two friendly pups and a toddler but promise to stay out of your hair during your booking. We live on a quiet street with private driveway for easy access. 🏠 We’ll be adding more amenities as we go especially as the weather cools down- access to a firepit, toys and treats. 🪵 🎾 🐶 We have a large dirt/mud patch that’s due to a recent tree 🌳 removal/falling- hoping to grow some grass soon but in the meantime and fun romp around for the pups- be sure to bring a towel if you book after a rainy day as it gets a bit muddy! For the rest of the summer we’ll offer access to a hose and doggie pool for extra cost 💲💦

Sophia's Fully Fenced 0.25 acre Yard For Dogs To Rent in the City

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Our yard is around .25 acres and fully fenced with a 6ft privacy fence. Only 5 minutes from downtown! We do have a deck (perfect for throwing that ball!) and a patio. We live on a cul-de-sac so parking can be a bit wonky but there are usually spaces available or you’re welcome to pull into our driveway if one of our cars is not there. ***please read*** There’s been a recent disturbance in the lot behind our yard, some developer is cutting down trees and possibly paving a road to a housing unit that has yet to be built. At the moment we’re not sure exactly what is happening but we are gathering more info and will hopefully have a timeline of how long this construction work will be. If your dog is afraid of loud machinery, you may want to reschedule your visit for a Sunday. As of now that seems to be the only day of the week they’re not working back there. We are very sad this is happening near our yard, as part of the reason we bought this house was the privacy we felt in our back yard. Please bare with us as we try to navigate this situation, we will post updates as we get them. We totally understand if you choose to cancel your visit!

Church Hill - Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent

Fully Fenced
0.02 acres

Welcome to our fenced-in Church Hill yard—a great spot for dogs to run, play, and relax! The grassy area is about 500+ square feet and gets lots of sunshine, with a small paved section that has a grill, table, and some toddler toys. The yard is fully enclosed with latched gates at the front and back for added security. We don’t have a dog ourselves, so this is a neutral space for pups of all personalities. While we’re just getting started, we plan to add more amenities soon! Please bring what you need. The yard is in a quieter area, just off a main road, and while it’s mostly sunny, there are some shaded spots. A quick request: Please don’t allow the dogs to play with the children’s toys (they are mostly tucked away). Other than that, we hope you and your pup enjoy the space. We’re excited to host and make this a great spot for dog owners!
