Location

Swansea, Illinois

Description

Our property’s back yard has a large lake, which is why it is listed as “partially”fenced. Otherwise, it is fully fenced. So if your furbaby is a swimmer, they will LOVE it here! There is a ramp leading directly into the water near our dock. However if your fur baby loves to swim TOO much and decides to exit the lake on the opposite side of our property, then you may have to hop in your car and retrieve them around the block, but If they have good recall, awesome! Lots of shade, and wildlife (ducks, geese, squirrels, raccoons) (Do not let your dog harm any of the wildlife). If your dog is a “prey” dog and you fear it will chase and catch a duck, goose, raccoon, then this may not be the place for you. If they know “leave it” then fantastic! :-) During the winter, if the lake is freezing over or frozen, we will NOT allow bookings.

Cleanliness

I have a large city lot with a parking pad in the alley, for you to use. I built a pergola for rain cover and there are a lot of trees for shade to enjoy. There is a lot of seating around a firepit (as well as a kiddie pool i can put out) and sprinkler available for your dog. I can provide treats and toys for play time with your pet. I love to spoil my dogs and would enjoy helping you spoil yours!
