This back yard is fully fenced with driveway guest parking. There is a mix of both sun and shade, and a hose for water. The grass is treated for bugs in the spring and kept short through the summer. No people or dog distractions at my property, so the place is all yours to wander. I absolutely love making this space comfortable for dogs & owners to stretch their legs in peace.

Sandy's Canine Corner Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Prospect Heights
Hi, my name is Bob and I grew up here with many different dogs over the years. They all loved to run, play and explore the yard as much as I did. I decided to name my spot for my mother, who always brought me to all the pet shops around and the reason for my love of animals. I sincerely hope that you and your dogs will also have as much fun running, playing and exploring the yard as we did!

The Scout 'n River .75 acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Yard In St. Charles
Welcome to our peaceful 0.75-acre fully fenced Sniffspot, the perfect mix of open space and natural woodland for your dog to safely explore, sniff, and play! Located on a quiet street, this space offers a relaxing, private escape where you and your pup can enjoy some off-leash time surrounded by nature. (Please note, there is no actual river... I named it after my own pups! 😄) 🌳 Features & Perks Fully fenced with a 5-foot wire fence — secure perimeter for dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Completely separate from the house for a truly private experience. Natural, chemical-free lot — we never use pesticides or fertilizers, so your dog can safely enjoy the sights and smells of nature. Shady wooded areas and sunny grassy spaces — perfect for lounging or playing fetch. Two benches available for you to relax while your dog explores. Poop bag station and garbage can conveniently located for easy clean-up. Very private setting — you can’t see other people or pets, and the yard is shielded from the road by thick foliage. (The only time a person may be visible for a short moment is if there is a rare delivery to the house, unfortunately those cannot be planned for but it is at least 50 ft or more from the Sniff Spot). Quiet environment — the only sounds you’ll hear are birds, rustling leaves, and the occasional car turning into the driveway or leaving from the main house. The road noise from the main road is minimal. Easy parking right in front of the spot for quick access. 🐕 Perfect For Dogs who: Need a calm, low-distraction environment Enjoy both open space and wooded exploring Benefit from a private, one-on-one play area This peaceful retreat is ideal for training sessions, decompression walks, or simply enjoying a safe and beautiful natural space together.

Bull Valley Family Farm
Come and let your dog explore, play, and swim on our beautiful family farm. Our farm means the world to us and we think you will love it just as much. Our farm lies on 16 acres in Bull Valley, Illinois. Although it is not fenced in, our property is doggy heaven for dogs trained to be off-leash. Come take a walk, bring a frisbee/ball, or just come let your dog sniff and explore. Please do not go into the land beyond the caution tape and signs. That is not part of our sniff spot. We have many farm animals on our property as well. Please be respectful of our property. We take pride in our farm and love sharing it, but we want to keep it beautiful. Entry in any of the barns/buildings is prohibited. Please remain in the back of our property. We do live on the property and appreciate our privacy. FYI, this is a working farm. Sometimes as you are pulling in, there might be cars/people in the barns and lot. Please keep that in mind as you are arriving and if your dog is reactive, bring a leash until you can get into the back field.
