Private entrance

Lady's Yard

Large fenced-in yard, partially fenced by non-privacy wood and chain link. The chain link has had 2ft high chicken wire added to it. It is not buried in the ground, so you must be watchful if you have a digger. But there are no holes for curious ones to get through. Plenty of room to run and play. Lots of perennials to sniff and explore. We back up to the Lakeview Woods Conservancy so you may even spot a deer or six as they go through their trail. Shade for both humans and dogs.

Jazz's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In De Forest

Welcome to our backyard! We pride ourselves on having a fun and enriching space for own pups and would like to share that experience with you! Here’s what we offer for dogs: 2 doggy pools, a sprinkler, a slide, agility cones, and a tunnel! Our yard is full sun, but we can set up a netted gazebo upon request either over the picnic table or off of the side to offer some shade. The entire fence is 6ft: with 3 sides that are wood for privacy and one side that is chain link (that views our interior yard). The chain link interior wall also has the door to enter the yard. This fence is escape proof for both small and large breeds. All breeds are welcome :)

PALS Park Lower (private)

PALS Park Lower, is a space we have curated strictly for dogs. This park is the little brother of PALS Park, now PALS Park Upper. This space is more rustic and a bit more simple than PALS Park Upper. There are 2, 5 gallon water jugs available with dog bowls. A deck box with an assortment of toys. A pooper scooper, along with a poop bag dispenser and trash can. There is a blue bag filled with agility equipment that may be used, but please put back when finished. People and Dog bug spray, natural and traditional varieties are available. This park is also named after our dogs. Penelope (20 lb., (F) Boston Terrier), Arthur, and Lewis (55-70 lb., (M) Cattle Dog mixes and biological brothers). Arthur and Lewis “do not play well with others” (they're herding dogs and tend to herd other dogs). Penelope is smaller and getting older, so she gets bullied at dog parks. Needless to say our number one goal is the safety and wellbeing of our kids, and now yours.

Shaded with some sun

4' high fenced in yard. We have a lower deck open to users to sit on with a large table and chairs. You'll also find a power outlet if needed and a bowl to fill for water out of the spicket for fresh water. This deck is also shaded most of the day. In the yard is some dog toys, some chairs around a fire pit, and large trees around for great nature feel. Dog waste bin near gate as well. Lower deck has sofa, table w/ chairs water spicket for use. Wifi is Dog yard, password is Deforest7755.

Edington's Sniffy Spot

Fully fenced back yard with mowed trails, long grass, stumps and a log wall to jump on, tug station, table and steps, a ladder and slide, and a tire tunnel. Various gardens (please try to stay out of the fenced ones). Feel free to move the logs and stumps if you’d like to! Some are usually set for jumps. $10 for 60 minutes; 7.50 for 30 minutes (per dog) Coming soon: herb garden for sniffing, tire pyramid with different textures. Disclaimers: there is a compost pile in the back corner that has food chunks; it is fenced, but please be aware if your dog tries to get anything out, it is not guaranteed to be dog-safe/edible. The neighbors have dogs that will bark occasionally; there is a privacy fence so they are not visible. There are often kids playing across the street who are audible. There are some tarps on the ground to help kill weeds for next year’s planting of native gardens. Ok to run on.

PALS Park Upper (private)

PALS park Upper, is a space we have curated for our three dogs, Penelope (20 lb., (F) Boston Terrier), Arthur, and Lewis (55-70 lb., (M) Cattle Dog mixes and biological brothers). Arthur and Lewis “do not play well with others” (they're herding dogs and tend to herd other dogs). Penelope is smaller and getting older, so she gets bullied at dog parks. We needed an open space with fencing, a relatively quiet area, yet far enough away from residential areas because our dogs bark a bit more than average and we don't want to be a bother to our neighbors. We realized this is the need for many dogs and dog parents (like us), and those dogs are not always afforded the ability to go to a dog park and be off leash, and be in a stress-free environment. That’s why we offer our space, a place we have made exclusively to let our dogs and YOURS be the very best version of themselves. Dogs deserve to be dogs, and that’s our aim at PALS Park. **At the park we do our very best to offer a 5 star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ experience. We are always looking for ways to improve the park, for you and your dogs. With constructive, positive, and a 5 star review, we will be better equipped to meet your needs. Also, leaving ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ would be pretty darn PAWSOME! **If there is something about your visit that isn’t worthy of a 5 star review, please message me and I can make it right. *We also have a (M) grey and white cat named Stumpy. He is indoors 75% of the time and makes himself VERY scarce when new people/cars are around. *There is ample parking and the driveway will be cleared of snow in the winter months. If there is a massive snowfall we will do our best to make a path. *There is a horse shelter in the park (we are slowly turning into the guest space). That’s where you will find several pooper scoopers with a bucket for poops without poop bags, a poop bag station, and a few mobile poop bag holders. There is a trash can for bagged poo and trash. We have set out some people chairs and an elevated dog bed. There are always refreshed buckets of water around the park. Who can forget the toys? We have two deck boxes full of toys. A larger one near the house as well as a smaller one at the shelter. There is also a tennis ball hopper at the shelter. Toys can be put back in either box, and please try your best to return them before you leave. **PROPER POOP DISPOSAL PROCEDURE** #2 can be: -pitched over the fence (bagless) -put into the trash can (if bagged) Karmic Poop Pick Up - we have a ton of space to play, so the odds of missing a poo now and then are high, we totally get it. See a poop? Pick it up (with a provided poop bag) and all day long you'll have good luck! We have a 700 gallon stock tank pool (not open November - May) just for the dogs. This will be available for an extra charge of $5 per dog. We will provide some towels for pool use and for general wet weather, because we know a wet dog in a car is not fun. Please drape the used/wet towels over the large grey gate at entrance before you leave. For human safety, please try to stay off the patio/porch near the home as it’s slippery when wet. Those areas will marked with a yellow plastic chain or closed off with black gates. If the dogs make it up there it isn’t a big deal, just be careful retrieving them.
