55The SS host is very sweet but doesn't always look at her phone. So, if you do a last minute booking, just know the host may not see it and may be in yard when you arrive. Nevertheless, Andrea was kind and graciously let us use the yard with our two sensitive dogs. Alyssa B.

55This was a nice sized yard for 3 large dogs to sniff, run, and play! It was right on a corner and the trees made it shady in the afternoon. I brought my own water bowl and toys. Sarah K.

55This is a great sniffspot with ao much room for the dogs to run! A combination of short, well mowed lawn, and trees/greenery. It was very peaceful and quiet during the late morning time we visited. Definitely coming back. Brooke H.

55The place was clean and well-fenced, making it safe for the dogs to roam. It was quiet, with no noticeable noise during our visit. You’ll need to bring your own toys. The dogs enjoyed their time there.Nelsy C.

55Really big yard, way larger than I expected. My dogs had a blast running around. Tiny dogs (like my 10 pounder) might be able to get under the entry gate, otherwise very secure. We appreciated the chairs.Katherine P.

55We are regulars here and so grateful for an in town, off leash option. Dogs from a yard nearby can be seen and heard, along with many a children playing in yards nearby, in case that's something your dog-o is sensitive to. So many sniffs and room for zooms! We shall return. Alyssa B.

55The yard was large, completely fenced in, and free of distractions. We had three dogs there and they all had a great time running around, sniffing, chasing balls. There was PLENTY of space for them to chase each other or run off on their own. I definitely recommend this spot!Tim D.

Cristy's Fully Fenced Yard For Dogs To Rent In Ypsilanti | Sniffspot
55Cristy happily accommodated my pup and I on relatively short notice, and offered to put water out for my dog before we arrived. Instructions for entry and parking were very clear and she gave us a heads up about a groundhog hole in the yard. My dog loved running around her yard and we both breathed easy and felt secure, with no issues in the fence at any point along its perimeter. She respected our privacy as my dog is lovely but not very friendly. There were several seating options, on her porch and around the firepit, and overall a fun afternoon for my dog and a cozy time for me watching her run around! I so appreciated Cristy’s communication and thoughtfulness leading up to and throughout the visit. Will return again soon!Jasmine P.

55I just had a lovely visit at Cristy's with my 2 dogs. We had a long day and her yard was the perfect size to get the zoomies out without being too big for me to retrieve the "missed" ball. There were two seating areas for me to relax and watch the action. Cristy brought out fresh water for my doggos. It was a clean safe yard with lots of areas to sniff. Overall, it was a fantastic sniff spot, and we will definitely be back again!Sara G.

55Exactly what I was needing for my dogs! Perfect size yard for my two crazies to get some zooming out and some sniffing done. Lush maintained lawn with great mature trees for shade. There was a picnic table I sat at. The host left out a large bowl of water. I was allowed to park in the driveway with easy access to the back yard. We were all very happy with the experience.

FAQ About Ypsilanti Dog Parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 10% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Ypsilanti area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 483 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 798 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
