As you explore the creek, if you walk down the creek and see a bend, turn around. There is a private residence around that bend. If conditions are safe and you use the fire pit, keep a close eye on it, and keep the flames below waist level. Importantly, use the bucket (next to the fire) to douse the fire with creek water to fully extinguish the fire before you leave. The spot is on private property. The land on the opposite side of the creek is Open Space preserve, and not included in the spot. Although sniffspot allows 2 hour cancellation, please give much more than 2 hours notice if you need to cancel a weekend or holiday spot. Those days often book solid from morning til night, and if you cancel only 2 hours beforehand, it doesn't give enough time for others to take your time slot because they have already seen that our spot was fully booked that day. We will have to block people who do this more than once.
Dogs must be leashed when entering and exiting the spot. | |
Make sure the area is safe and secure before bringing your dog in. | |
Never enter a spot before your booking start time and never leave late. | |

2/3 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Agility field
Our Sniffspot is located on a quiet dead end in the back of Montara, CA. It is fully fenced. It contains 2 fields, a lower and upper, both suitable for use. I will have agility courses set up a portion of the time. Please do not move equipment if there is a numbered course set up. You are free to use tunnels and jumps, but please be careful on the contact obstacles if they are set up. Please watch your dogs and do not allow them to mark the obstacles, tunnels, jumps or weave poles. If they do, can you kindly rinse with the watering can. Do not place any human items or treats on the dog walk. Do not rest or lean on the dog walk. It is an expensive piece of equipment, not a table. Note: there are chickens and horses next door at times, please do not allow your dogs to bark or charge the fence at them. Also, do not let your dogs repeatedly run up to the horses if they are near the fence, and potentially scare them. They are not as visible from the lower field. I have an older dog that sometimes barks from inside the house but she is not visible. Thanks for exploring our Sniffspot!

Maxie Water Park 🏖️Private Dog Pool with Solar Heating In San Jose
🐾 Welcome to Maxie Pool! The first private swimming pool in the area, designed just for dogs to splash, swim, and have fun! 🌞 About the Pool -Chlorinated and professionally cleaned weekly. -Pool depth & entry steps: The pool goes up to 9 ft deep on the east side, but most of the west side is waist-high shallow water. There are 3 wide steps where dogs can easily enter, rest, or leave the pool. -Dog life jackets in XS/S/M/L sizes (one of each), pool toys, and treats available. -Solar-heated by the sun through solar panels, so water temperature depends on sunshine and weather (not a jacuzzi or gas-heated pool). - Trees provide shade during most of the daytime in the backyard for guests to sit and relax. -The backyard has a mix of stone, mulch, pebbles, and turf, giving dogs plenty of textures and areas to explore. -A few extras provided: sunscreen, wipes, a privacy tent, and life vests for humans to make your visit easier. ✨ Before You Book -This is a dog pool — the focus is for your pups to enjoy the water. Even though we clean after every visit and run the filter constantly, dogs naturally bring in hair, oils, dust, and dirt. This is not a resort-style pool for people. Water may be clearer on weekdays than weekends. -Please brush your dog before swimming to reduce shedding(brushes are provided) 👥 Guests & Dogs -2 guests included with the first dog. Each additional dog includes 1 guest free. -Extra guests: $15/person/hour. If you are bringing more guests, you can select in the EXTRA section when booking. -For safety reasons, children under 16 are not allowed. -Bringing 4+ dogs or hosting a doggy party? Please contact us before booking and we’ll be happy to help arrange! 🏊 Pool Rules To keep the pool safe and enjoyable for everyone: -Supervise your dogs at all times — no coach/lifeguard provided. -Pets & humans swim at their own risk. -No bathroom available — please plan ahead. We do have a privacy tent for guests to change clothes. -No food, treats, or glassware in the pool. -No peeing/pooping in the pool — let us know immediately if your pup has accidents happen. -Dogs must be leashed entering/exiting; off-leash only once the pool steel gate is locked. Keep the pool steel gate locked at all times. -Keep noise down — no yelling, screaming, or loud music (quiet neighborhood). -Respect landscaping — there are plants, turf, rocks, and mulch; dogs play at their own risk. -Bring your own towels — no hoses, outlets, dryers, or shower facilities available. -Do not touch pool equipment — misuse will result in charges. -Pool cleaning is every Monday — there may be pool chemicals present. -Security cameras are at the entrance and backyard; footage is reviewed only for incidents. 💙 Thank you for helping us keep Maxie Pool fun, safe, and clean for every pup. We can’t wait to welcome you and your dog for a tail-wagging good swim!

Tracey's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In San Leandro
My yard is on its journey to becoming the perfect pit stop. The full lot is 0.3 acres with wildlife bordering majority of the yard - if you’re lucky, wildlife like deer & lots of squirrels + birds can be spotted! I pick up after my dogs on the weekend. Edit 1/19/25: Construction debris on/around the deck has been removed. Edit 4/17/25: Fencing along the right side (when you walk in) has been re-done! Edit 6/16/25: We have regularly scheduled landscaping which will hopefully help with foxtails. Please remember this is a yard and not a dog park. Guests are responsible for the safety of any additional visitors, including children, during their visit.
