55Wonderful spot. Very quiet and peaceful with plenty of room for the pups to run around with a full, tall fence so we didn't have to worry!
55Really open, pretty property!
55Confusing directions, gps took us to a different street with the same name 10 minutes away. Once we made it, the place was clearly marked and a great time! Neighbor working on the other side of the fence and dog barking in the distance - wasn't an issue though.
55We LOVED Stephanie’s SniffSpot! The boys had a blast running, zooming, sniffing, exploring, and fetching sticks. They were pooped by the time we left! The space was quiet, clean, and secure. We will be back for sure! Thank you!
55The Sniffspot was exactly as described and had plenty of room for our dogs to run and play.
55Safely fenced and lots of space to play fetch!
25You have to bring your own poop bags because the host doesn’t provide any, and there’s no trash bin either so you’re expected to bring the poop bags back with you. We found a large glass shard on the ground that could’ve easily hurt one of the dogs so that tells me that the host doesn’t do a walk through of their yard before someone arrives. And since there’s no trash bin we had to pick it up and put it in a random pot. The yard is nice and spacious so it’s great for dog zoomies, but we won’t be returning.
55Great spot for a playdate! Appreciate the clear instructions from the host.
55Amazing time again 💯 it was so quiet and calm environment. We’ll be back!
55My husband and I brought our Bernedoodle girls for a play session. They absolutely loved running in the field. We were also very fortunate to see bald eagles! We definitely will visit again!

We have 1 dog, but I keep him in the house or in the adjoining yard, which has a 5 foot fence in between; I can also put him inside for your visit. On the other side of the periphery fence is my neighbor's smaller female friendly dogs, and they can communicate on occasion. They usually quiet down a few minutes after their initial greeting bark, especially if you say hi : )

Location

Woodinville, Washington

Description

This beautiful 2-acre spot is fully fenced - 4-5' high, gates 4' high. There are potentially 2 areas that you can use right next to each other (fenced in between). Please note however, that the first Pasture that you come to does have an area where dogs can potentially get through and back to the gravel road. It is right inside the first gate on your right in the forest area there. The great thing is we are not near any sort of busy road. One thing to note is that my neighbor on the adjoining property has friendly, smaller dogs, and they do bark from time to time. You really can't see them all that much as there is brush, sticker bushes, and trees in between our properties. That said, you may hear them from time to time. What I find that works in quieting them up is to just walk over and talk to them. We welcome dogs that have different anxieties as well as being dog reactive and people reactive. There have been many people here with their dogs who have done just fine. There is a spigot with fresh clean well water, next to the clawfoot tub inside second pasture. We also have a bowl there for your use. We have wood for you to purchase, should you desire a fire while there. There are plenty of chairs and benches for folks to sit on. Please read and follow our rules for everyone's safety. Thank you and have fun!!

Cleanliness

98% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

Sticker bushes around the periphery of the area. Piles of sticks, wild animal scat. Holes from moles, please be careful and do not let your pups dig as this creates potential hazards for everyone. When you come through the first field, be aware that there are fence weaknesses and about a foot of clearance under the first gate you come to that your pup could potentially get through. It is always a good idea to keep them leashed through the first Meadow until reaching the second Meadow where the fencing is completely intact if your pup(s) are escape artists. Please notice that we do have some molehills, and we're trying to mitigate those by using natural sounds emitted by little stakes in the ground. Please be careful of those stakes so you don't trip and fall and so they don't break as they are fragile. Also, in the spring, although this is not a hazard we do have a lot of Songbird nests out in the area that you inhabit while you are here. Please be sure to keep your dogs away from these nests. Lastly, in the late summer and early fall, you may hear an occasional gunfire, although it is rare. It's not anything that we do here, but the neighbors may be practicing their second amendment rights, and there is not anything I can do about that. If your dogs are reactive, it may be best to find another spot.

Extras

Firewood for a fire in the pit$10

You may help yourself to some firewood to stay warm by the fire while you are here. Please let me know in advance and I can provide paper, kindling and matches. Please allow 24 hour notice for this : ) Thanks!

Additional rules

Hello everyone, Welcome to our little piece of paradise, where dogs can roam freely, frolic about, and play!! These guidelines are in place for everyone's comfort and safety. There are places to sit (for you). We have a firepit, if you'd like to build a fire (please see under extras). We have a hydrant with fresh well water over by the old claw foot tub in the second enclosed area. 1. Please open the farm gate towards you coming onto the property and open towards your vehicle going back to your vehicle. Do not open the gate towards the field, or it will be damaged. Also, please do not drive into the field. 2. Please, please, please pack it out! Including your dog's poo and bags of poo, as we do not get garbage service here, even for ourselves. Lately, we have been seeing a lot of missed poo. 3. There are smaller friendly female neighbor's dogs (on the other side of the periphery fence) who sometimes bark, most of the time they can be quieted if you go say hi, at least that works for me, when I am playing with my dogs : ). 4. There is a hydrant and bowls next to the claw foot tub (in the larger second field) that you are welcome to use. Please use the hydrant by making sure the lever is pulled upwards and using the red round handled spigot to fill and rinse the bowls. Then please put handle back down when finished. 4. Have fun! 5. If I am around and your dog is not human reactive, then I may ask if I can come say hi, if you are ok with it and if I am here. : ) 6. Please, for liability reasons, we can not have anyone under the age of 18 on the premises. Thank you for honoring our things to know. 7. Please be sure to look around for any missed poo, toys, and other possessions before leaving and take with you. Again, please look around for toys, tennis size balls are dangerous for bigger dogs and can get stuck in their throat which actually happened to my dog and he almost died, so I always encourage people to use bigger balls and to make sure that they are taken with you when you leave. 8. Please do not let your dog dig. It creates unsafe conditions for everyone. Please keep an eye on them at all times. 9. Up to 4 dogs and 4 people over the age of 18 may be here at one time. 10. Please do not bring any furniture, food, any glass containers, etc, onto the premises without first getting an okay from owner. 11. We have parking for 2 cars. If more is needed, please check with owner prior to reservation to see if it is something they can accommodate.**** 12. If you would like a special situation for your visit, such as more people or dogs, please let me know and I may be able to accommodate.

Hello, my name is Stephanie and I have been caring for animals since I was a little girl. I have been involved with dog rescue and placement for many years. I have worked with reactive dogs before and welcome those whose pups are both people and dog reactive. For this reason, I can put my dog inside for the time you are here. It helps if you give me a heads up : ) He would never be in the area that you are in, just in the field near our home on the other side of the fence. In other words, we are located in a pasture next to the one you will be using (where our house is). I have owned this over 5 acre piece of property for many years and I am happy to have visitors and love providing a place where dogs can play, run free and have fun! I am also open to having puppy play only where a few of you with puppies can come and socialize them, train them etc. Please let me know what you need and I will try to accommodate. We have two large separately fenced pastures right next to each other that you may use.(In case you are getting your dogs used to each other or just want another space to use) . You may use both areas. The whole area is about 2 acres. Please note that our neighbor across our adjoining peripheral fence has 2 friendly little female dogs that may communicate while you are here. There are a a lot of sticker bushes and brush and some trees in between so it can be hard to see them. Sometimes they bark, sometimes they don't. Also please note that the second pasture (through the second large gate is completely fenced). The first pasture has some areas they could get out if they really tried. Even so, we have no major roads around here, so they would end up on the gravel driveway surrounding the entry gate. If your dog is an escape artist, it may be best to just keep them leashed until you enter the second pasture : )We have a water spigot next to the claw foot tub, for watering your pup(s). The spigot is in the second pasture. (Look left after passing through the second large farm gate). If you use the spigot, we ask that you please put the handle down after using so it doesn't freeze water in the pipe and crack. We also have a sheltered area in both meadows for you to use as well. We do not have garbage service. Therefore, we ask our guests to please carry in, carry out and dispose of their waste off site. We do have wild animals that mosey on through from time to time (usually at night) and may leave scat behind, just a heads up that your pup may be interested in it. ***As a side note, since we live in a heavily treed area, sometimes a tree will fall, and it may land over one of our fences. We may not be aware of it unless someone points it out. Just let us know and we will come out and care for that. ***** Because we are a busy Sniff Spot, we do have to do maintenance. Part of this is reseeding the grass. We will have those areas fenced off (with plastic fencing) and ask that you keep your pups away from those areas, so we can grow more grass for them : ) Usually this is in late Winter and Spring. *****Please be sure to read the rules and follow them. This is for your safety and those of your pups.*** Thanks for your reservation and we look forward to hosting you : )
