We had a blast.. the location is perfect! Vals instructions are clear and we had a great time. Thank you again

Very, very nice! Wish it was closer to us. A nice mix of sun and shade, plenty of free space to run, and a really good option for my standard poodle to really open up her legs and run.

Abbey M.

Val was an amazing host! My reactive pup got to enjoy a large fenced in well maintained yard without the stress of a public shared space. She provided plenty of toys we could use in addition to the ones we brought. I would highly recommend and will definitely book here again.

Val was very kind as to return an item I forgot the last time I visited. Again this sniffspot was very open, clean, and had lots for my dog to smell and play around.

Vanessa M.

October 2023

We all had such a had such a great time watching our dogs roam around in this beautiful space!! The land was spacious and clean so we felt comfortable as we left them off leash. They ran, they chased, sniffed around, and played ball, until they became tired and decided to relax under the shade of the trees. What a fun adventure! We can’t wait to be back.

Beautiful, big backyard! My pups loved it, my border collie especially appreciated the kiddie pool. We will be back again! Thank you for sharing your home with us! 🐾🐶🐾

Val’s backyard was wonderful for me and my 2 dogs! Plenty of fresh green grass to run around on, and no foxtails (even in the height of summer)! Plus she left out toys and a small kiddie pool for the dogs to splash in, and left cold water for me as well since it was so hot. We had a great time!

Meri R.

July 2023

This was a wonderful place to bring our pup. It was easy to find and the welcome text had lots of good info in it for first time sniffspot users like me. I loved that it has a lot of room for her to really stretch out her legs and run. They have a huge grassy area in the middle that was so nice and green. And when our pup was starting to tire out, the grass in the shady area was cool and relaxing for her. We didn't get to try out the little kiddie pool they had out but may try that next time. We will definitely be booking another play time here. I highly recommend Pawsome Dog Park!

This was a beautiful property. Exactly like the pictures. Balto and I had a great time. Many places to explore and just run and be free. His favorite feature was the baby pool, as it was a warm day. We will definitely be visiting again! Thanks!

Charmaine M.

August 2023

We had another fun time at this fabulous spot! My dog is so excited when we arrive, eager to get in the gate and run.

Kamri A.

August 2023

This is a truly magical place. There is something new to explore around every corner. The yard is large enough to get the full zoom-y experience. I would recommend this to any dog owner, we had a puppy, a two year old dog, and an old lady and they all had fun in there own ways. There was water to play in and balls to chase. We will definitely be coming back!

Becky M.

August 2023

Really nice spot! Lots of space and shady areas as well. Host set up a couple kiddie pools, which my dogs appreciated.

Ree H.

August 2023

A hidden gem. Large area for the dogs to run. Great communication with the host. Would love to return soon.

Ayush S.

Leo and I had a blast! This space is beautiful and well kept. Plenty of space to run around in and a beautiful garden and trees for Leo to sniff around. I came down from San Jose and it was well worth the drive. Val is incredibly hospitable and communicative. A really great experience overall.
