Description

***IMPORTANT: All prices listed are in USD and guests will be charged in USD*** This is a private hobby horse farm in Metchosin. I have a large field that would be a great spot to let your dog run free. I have a 120x60 foot sand ring for detail training (must inform if the ring is going to be used). Water access hose in the corner of fields. Small swing on tree. Outhouse by the barn. Please pick up after your pet. Respect the property and use the garbage cans provided

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

HOST NOTE

Horses in the back paddock away from field. If the gate to the back paddock is ever open, just close it please. That way the horses don’t commode into the big field when you’re there. They are probably just hanging around the barn as they are afraid of new people on the property.

Extras

Bathing$2

City fed Water hose in field for bathing your dogs or spraying them down on warm days. (Drinking water is always provided & free access 24/7)

Sand Ring$5

Sand Riding ring 120x60 foot flat area behind the barn for flat training. Can set up jumps or dog equipment (bring your own).

Space includes a small wooded area within the fenced area. Bathroom available on site in the smaller barn. SMOKE FREE ZONE. Pick up after dogs, garbage bin provided. There are a few seniors visiting with mobility issues which is taken into consideration when there is poop left behind. You can always message me and let me know a general area and I can try to run out and pick it up between the next visit. There are some small gaps in the fence, so this is a great spot for large and medium sized dogs. Not a spot recommended for small dogs or severely reactive. Please keep dogs leashed until it is your time slot and are in the designated area and keep in mind you may pass another dog owner with their dog on a leash leaving or entering the spot. IF YOU CAN NOT CONTROL YOUR DOG ON A LEASH WHEN PASSING ANOTHER DOG PLEASE DO NOT BOOK THIS SPOT. Lots of seniors visit this spot and they may need some extra time to walk to their cars. For the most part spacing between guests has been good. Please read the essential rules the website has suggested in order to keep this a fun and safe place for dogs. Guests can be blocked from booking again if they do not respect the space or who are rude to me. Please check the spot descriptions for all details regarding animals on the property.

You can also book that spot for puppy training, as it will be a more controlled smaller space 18 ft long. This will have a little drawing table/play kitchen/play house for kids set up in the corner, and chairs. For people who don't have cats you can still book the space and visit my two friendly orange cats. The orange cats on the property are very people/kid friendly. The black/white cats are loving only to immediate family members. Thank you to all our visitors. It's been wonderful seeing so many happy dogs.

Val's 0.5 Acre Partially Fenced Private Dog Park In Victoria

Partially Fenced
0.5 acres

Important - All prices are in USD and charges to the guest are in USD Our backyard is a mini overgrown Garry Oak forest in the city. With more than 25 trees including 2 Douglas Firs, a snowberry-blackberry thicket, boulders, and some fallen logs, it is like a mini oasis. Our trees are home to owls, squirrels, and Coopers Hawks in the summer months. We are actively working to remove invasive plants like English Ivy and blackberries from the wooded lot so please exercise caution as you move around the more overgrown areas. Good shoes are must. If you’d like more of a standard yard experience, the mulched upper garden bed area is flat and great for playing fetch. Plenty of good sticks, bones and dog toys. The rest of the yard has rocky, varied terrain and sloped in spots. Some rocks can be loose, so please exercise caution. Most of the back lot is a thicket of blackberry and snowberry bramble that we are slowly working to restore to a native plant meadow and maintain the paths. Best suited for adventurous folks, dogs that are not prey driven or escape artists.

Multi-tiered & fully fenced backyard in Colwood!

Fully Fenced
0.06 acres

***IMPORTANT: all prices listed are in USD and guests will be charged in USD*** Hi everyone! My name is Robyn and I run a local pet care business in the Westshore called Island Time Pet Care. I offer dog walks, private boarding, and pet sitting services. When I’m not boarding any pups, I’d love to open my yard and patio space for other pups to enjoy. I have a senior dog, Ember, who will potentially be home during your visit - she doesn’t bark and often doesn’t even flinch when strangers come by, but I do close all blinds in my house when she is around for the comfort of your pup. I live in a quiet neighbourhood, however there is some construction going on in the lot behind my home. There are tenants in the upstairs unit, and they are aware when there is a Sniffspot booking. There is a large bedrock that runs along one side of the backyard, which makes for some great exploring. There is a blackberry grove next to my yard which is frequented by various wildlife, so there is always lots to smell back there! Please note there is a significant set of stairs you need to go down to reach the lawn area from the patio. The yard is surrounded by 6ft fences, and there is one section that is steep rock - this could potentially be climbed by a VERY determined pup so please keep that in mind. I’m happy to do what I can to make your time here as safe & fun as possible, so please feel free to reach out with your queries & I’ll try my best to accommodate!
