This was our very first Sniffspot! My pup Chuck and I are apartment living, and he’s just finished getting all of his vaccines. This experience was perfect! The host was super responsive and very accommodating. The doggos were able to get two solid hours of OFF LEASH time with all the sniffs and fake pees their hearts desired. Not a very far drive from our apartment in downtown tacoma, we lost definitely plan on this being a regular visit!!! Thank you, Samantha!!

This is a Doggy Paradise with so many places to sniff and activities! It is private and easily accessible. The host responds quickly and is very welcoming. I highly recommend Doggy Paradise. Wins all around.

Today I tried out my very first Sniffspot. I chose something close that was secure and offered some fun amenities like agility equipment, a giant tire with balls, access to water, lots of extra toys, and an extra special bonus humming bird feeders and they came to visit while we were there. I recommend this spot. Thank You Samantha for providing the space and making it easily accessible, secure and inviting. We will be back.

This is a nice safe space for dogs new to training to get some exercise or for smaller dog playtime. Very convenient location.

my two dogs Bear and Badger and I had a great time! I include myself because not only were there fun extras for pups, there were amenities for humans too! I enjoyed relaxing on the porch under the heater while the dogs romped around and had plenty to sniff. there were toy buckets, fresh water and poop bags easily accessible on the porch. we added on a sniff mat for more enrichment and the host was so kind as to leave a treat gift too. I would recommend this spot even for a rainy day. thank you!!

This is a huge yard for having such a central location. It’s big and open with a slight hill, so good for fetch. The yard is fully fenced and generally felt very private but I heard a bit of radio noise when I was close to one side of the yard and once I heard a dog bark in the distance like maybe from inside a neighboring house. There are chairs, a large open covered patio, a water bowl and some toys! Soba loved exploring and playing here!

Very nice yard, with easy access, though needs some additional work to be considered secure/fully fenced. Overall though, a good experience. Clean and well-maintained space.

Great little yard to hang out in! My pup enjoyed sniffing around and relaxing in the grass with his ball.

Small yard but well kept with fresh water for your fur babies. My country boy was needing somewhere to be a dog and thoroughly enjoyed chasing a few balls. He didn’t care one bit about the yard size…. Just the balls and the smells. Thank you for opening your yard up for us. It was greatly appreciated and will be much used.

Cute small garden/yard with shade and good seating. Nice low key vibe for 1-2 dogs to beat the heat while able to have some outside time. Fence is solid!

This spot is remarkably quiet and relaxing for having such a great location. There was easy parking on the street. Walking up with soba I heard a dog bark in the distance but then never heard or saw a dog again. The host left fresh water out on the front porch. The yard has nice grass, a beautiful rose bush and fruit trees. The spot is fully fenced with chain link fencing (but one side has privacy screening), but didn’t see any dogs or people. Soba loved sniffing and exploring and this yard would be good for fetch as well.

3 out of 3 boxers give this spot 5 stars! Yard was clean and secure for my dogs with plenty of grass, trees, and shrubs to explore. The host left a fresh tennis ball as well as towels to clean feet when we were done.

My pup was reunited with her sister here and they had the best time running all around the yard. Especially enjoyed the treats :)

My pup really enjoyed his time here! Loved the personal touches; treats, toys, a kind note, and a towel to wipe down the dirty pup. Definitely coming back!

We loved this space! Great sized yard for 3 dogs to visit and run! Thanks so much for a great space to sniff and play! Easy location too!

Have seen this place but was never fast enough to book it! Turns out it is right down the street from me and I have loved this house on my walks with my dog. 10/10, feels like my own backyard! I’m a history lover so love the old house and lovely mature plants/trees.

Beautiful spot! My dogs were delighted! They are small and wear themselves out after half an hour, but we'll be back!

Such a beautiful yard, perfect for fetch and relaxing under the shade of the trees while the dogs play!

Absolutely perfect yard! The kiddie pool was fantastic and there’s a good amount of shade to stay cool in. There were also some fantastic apples to pick. Will absolutely be a new favorite spot!

Great area for dogs to play! We received bottled water, dog treats, balls and a kiddy pool. Will definitely return :)
