HOST REPORTS

Sometimes

there's a public trail that runs along the west side of the yard, separated by a chain link fence covered with a privacy screen. there's occasional bicyclists, walkers, and dogs with their owners that walk the trail. most dogs will not notice other dogs being walked because of the privacy screen. on the other side of the walking path is university avenue, and being in a bedroom community, traffic noise will be greater during weekday rush hours. there's water bowls and jugs of clean water on the picnic table in the yard. in addition, a motion-activated dog watering station is located under the deck on the right (near the entrance gate).

Location

Fridley, Minnesota

Description

A large, open 1.25 acre fenced in yard with multiple small hills that is bordered on the west side by a public walking trail (with 6 foot fence) and on the north side by Rice Creek (with 5 foot fence). Note that the creek is not directly accessible from the Sniffspot. During the winter months, deer and foxes pass just outside of the fenced in yard, while in warmer months the creek entices additional wildlife as well as the occasional canoeist or kayak. Agility equipment pictured are available during the warmer months and are not available in the winter. There's abundant street parking as we are located at a dead-end. Please do not park in the driveway. Enter the yard using the gate located to the left of the garage.

Cleanliness

99% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Agility equipment portrayed in pictures are not available during the winter months where snow, ice, and freezing weather affect both the agility equipment and safety of your pup.

Angela's 0.5 Acre Fully Fenced Private Dog Park In Arden Hills

Fully Fenced
0.5 acres

Our backyard is a half acre of fully fenced fun! Conveniently located and ample parking. Tons of room to run and sniff! Half of the backyard is grass. The other half is a mix of pollinators and weeds awaiting my picking. It was all buckthorn when we bought the house in 2021 😬 I use natural methods to control weeds by hand picking, cardboard and tarps for smothering patches of weeds as I work on slowly planting the wild area.

Ultimate Sniffing Experience in Roseville!

Fully Fenced
0.25 acres

Nearly 1/3 of an acre in Roseville available for your dog to sniff until their heart’s content! Open mowed grassy area wide enough for zoomies and long enough for fetch, as well as natural/unmanicured shaded areas for “jungle sniffari’s”. Not far off of Highway 36 and 35E, enjoy the perks of room to run while having the privacy of your own space. Plenty of seating for humans underneath a shaded gazebo, with a table and basic amenities for guest use. Please be aware that we do have other dogs in the neighborhood. This includes our direct neighbors to the north, who we share a chain link fence with. If you are visiting on an evening or weekend, there’s a good chance their dog will be outside also!

Come bring your dog to play in my fully fenced yard! I do pet-sitting as a side hustle, so I refer to this as my mini dog park! Chairs and a table available for humans, plenty of space to get out the zoomies and no worries if they need to get a little digging in! I keep the blinds closed so no dogs will be seen inside my house, but occasionally there may be a dog I'm hosting that may bark (or neighbors). Let us be your play sanctuary!!

Redwood Run

Fully Fenced

Quiet street in pleasant neighborhood just off 694 and Silver Lake Road. Fully fenced and easy access from the street. Relax near the "dog" pool while your dog explores the yard for new and interesting smells. Mostly open yard with a path through a woodsy pollinator area in back. Kiddie pool and hose available in summer, plus a tiny inground pond for cooling off. What the yard lacks in a aesthetics it makes up for in smells. Rabbits live in the brush pile beyond the tall grass. Lots of bones everywhere 🦴🦴, free for the taking. Some well loved toys and balls available. Garden with cherry tomatoes to pick when available.
