Beautiful and spacious yard! Everything is always clean and water and bowls are readily available for the guest pups. This is one of my favorite Sniffspot to go to. Danielle, thank you so much for accommodating our corgi group!!

This spot is awesome! Plenty of room if your dog just likes to explore and sniff, but also lots of equipment and fun stuff added exercise and enrichment. super clean and had lots of water and toys available!

Great spot to take the pups! They all had a blast romping in the yard. There were tons of obstacle like toys that were great to sniff and check out! They also had Jolly balls which I've always wanted to try and my one girl had a blast playing with it! I also have an escape artist and though she tried to find a hole in the fence, it is very well protected and she couldn't find a spot to escape!

Always an absolutely great time at this sniff spot. With the seasons changing and much less light in the evenings this sniff spot is going to be our go to!! Extremely well lit, and Danielle had even reached out to me asking about the lighting and if I had any suggestions. I mentioned the area with the big tire wasn’t lit up, and my dogs really enjoy it but after the sun goes down it’s too dark to encourage them to go over there, by the next time we were there she had two lights up in that corner!! Couldn’t be happier with this sniff spot. They take amazing care of their lawn, and you’d never believe they hosted it as a sniff spot with how well kept they keep everything. We have never seen any dog poop, and having bowls and fresh water is great for us, because my dogs go through more water than I can carry with me when I come! I even increased my sniff spot subscription level because I know we will be using it for this spot!!

This place is AMAZING and worth every minute of my hour drive !!! I have a escape artist whose first thing he does is to look for ways to escape after about 10 - 15 min he accepted the fact that he could not find a way out he proceeded to enjoy this beautiful yard with all of the toys. My girl absolutely loved the big round jolly ball and played with it the entire time. It was a beautiful day. The yard was clean. There was plenty of water . I’m definitely gonna have to book more than an hour. We love it so much thinking about coming back tomorrow.

Plenty of water and space for the doggo to run and play. Lot of balls which he loves. Comfortable seating for humans. No interruptions. Couldn’t hear her dogs if they were home. Very inviting and easy to get in and out. Would love to rent with another dog to have a play date. Trying to socialize our reactive pit is not a task for the weak

Danielle is such an amazing host! I had accidentally dropped a very small and thin leash, and didn’t even realize I dropped it and left it in her yard. She messaged me and asked if it was mine, and made sure to give it back to me the next time I was there. This will be our go to all fall, winter and spring (as weather allows) for evening fun and training.

Their fenced in yard was in great condition and the gate was secure. Plenty of clean bowls and water, lots of balls and toys, as well as little tunnels, and I suppose the tires were for practicing their agility. Our dog played the whole time. We will return to the little monster property again.

Drew D.

Our dog Margo really enjoyed herself! The yard was completely fenced in and was very secure. There were plenty of toys to play with and everything was very clean. We absolutely will be booking again.

Tons of space and very clean. The host was very hospitable. My dog lived the playground and space. The host also provided water and clean bowls with multiple sitting areas for dog parents. We will definitely be returning.

Beautiful property with tons of fun stuff for the pups. We particularly liked the puppy play place and the mounds of tennis balls!

Christine R.

This place was great! Our 3 Bernedoodles loved it! Parking and entry are very convenient. There is a fun corner playground, 2 toy boxes, courtesy water & bowls and seating. Plenty of room for them to run and explore.

First time using sniff spot- a great location with a big open yard and assortment of toys. Our dog loved it here.

Erica L.

November 2024

We had such a fun time playing here. There’s a bin full of tennis balls and another one filled with toys. The land is so flat and great for fetch. They provide water dishes and a full cooler so your pup is never thirsty. My girl had a blast at this spot!

Always have a blast! My big girl loves the tug pole toy, and there is always so much to sniff and enjoy for my girls!

It was great!! HUUUGE yard and so many awesome things to play with, even in the snow. The water jug sadly was frozen shut, but since we weren’t even expecting water jugs so had already brought our own. Will be back, Moose and Rudy had so much fun!!

Great yard we love coming here. It’s been the only yard so far my dog has not been able to escape from by jumping the fence so that’s a huge relief. My only disappointment is that I live 50 minutes away but definitely worth the drive.

Courtney G.

February 2025

Perfect place to let our pups run around. We’ll definitely be back! Loved all the toys and play sets for the dogs!

Renáta H.

It was a good visit, however, very muddy after the freezing rain yesterday. Also, the neighbors’ dogs were barking outside for about 30 minutes.

Rebekah W.

Haven't been here in a while, but as soon as we pulled up, Bravo got excited! Wouldn't have thought it was possible for this spot to get any better, but it did! Many nice little improvements since last time we were here - making it an even better experience! At home now with two wornout happy dogs!
