Dog Heaven 3 Acre Fully Fenced Private Property

2 people max per reservation. Additional guests can be added by purchasing the “Extra Guest Add-On” for each person. For directions, please take screenshots of the “photos for access” in case you lose reception in the area - in case people take off our Sniffspot logo signs. Plan to arrive 15 min before your scheduled visit to make sure you have time to find the spot, park, walk etc. We are home with our dogs so please don’t get too close to the big house to avoid our dogs from wanting to come out and play or any disturbances. Small house and basketball court ok to be around. Magical place for dogs and owners. The property is beautiful and interesting to explore and relax with benches throughout. Bring your own pic-nic and enjoy it in the secret garden. Or shoot some hoops in the basketball court. It’s an experience for both dog and owner. No more than 2 people per booking please. Come enjoy 3+ acres of fully fenced area! A true hidden gem with entrance from the awesome San Vincent public hike trail with access to free parking. A small creek with a tiny bit of water from the mountain passes through the property after a few days of rain. If plum trees have fruit feel free to pick some and enjoy! We have three dogs who will be kept indoors and out of sight during your visit. That said, if you’d like some canine company, two of them are happy to socialize. Wilson is our grumpy old male chihuahua mix (about 20 lbs) who may bark at first, then either ignore you or decide to play - it depends on his mood. The other is Ragnar, our 140-lb, 5-year-old Great Pyrenees who firmly believes he’s a giant baby. He loves everyone, drools freely, and will absolutely leave hair on you. Getting into the property is an adventure of its own, just follow the signs. 2 min walk from parking lot. Once you are here you can explore freely and take it all in :) Fun gopher holes they can put their nose in, but please stop your dog from digging! 😅 IMPORTANT: Public parking at entrance of hike trail and entrance to property is via hike trail. Please come prepared! We do not provide bags or trash cans (so please take your trash and dog’s poop with you) we do not provide water either. We tried and the water in the bowls did not stay fresh for long. Restrooms are not available. Note for reactive dogs: We completely understand how important safety is for reactive dogs, and many guests choose our space for that reason. That said, please note that the trail to get to our property is public and not something we can control. You may run into another dog or horse on the public trail. Additionally, at the corner of the western side, there is heavy fencing and dense bushes that act as an additional barrier, but a neighboring dog might be present. Our space itself is secure, fully fenced, and a safe environment. All just for you. No other animals inside the property unless you request a playdate with one of our dogs. We look forward to your visit!
