55Nice peaceful spot overlooking trail.
55Nice private backyard! We would’ve stayed longer, but it was pretty hot out today for my doggo. He enjoyed all the sniffing!
35The yard was shady as promised—exactly what we needed on a hot day. However, along with the shade came a swarm of mosquitoes and some poison ivy. This spot is perfect for a dog that prefers to sniff and wander, but there isn’t much room for fetch. My dog was also distracted by dogs on the walking trail, which was clearly visible from the yard.
55It’s on a hill so if you have mobility issues it might be difficult to navigate but my dog loved running up and down it.
55Great shady spot!
55Very nice shaded area and host provided water my pups enjoyed it!
45This spot seemed well maintained as there was no dog poop around and the fence was in good condition - Olive fits through everything and I felt secure with her there. The terrain was difficult for her to navigate with the hill and the debris on the ground, which is not unexpected for it being a wooded yard. It was GREAT for sniffy enrichment and for experiencing a new terrain and area! I think Olive would have had much more fun if we’d brought a friend and went when it wasn’t so humid! Either way, we super appreciate the availability to go to a private place to try and have some fun!
55Sarah’s yard was a blast! We brought our three Bostons there and they went nuts! We will be back!
55Had a great time. It was much too hot to run, so the visit was more about sniffing than playing. Wear good shoes as the yard is a hill. Normal debris on the ground for a wooded spot. You will need bug spray, with the rain and heat the mosquitos will carry you away.
55This is a really lovely spot! Lots of places for my pup to sniff and check out and the fence was secure.

Hi! I love animals, and would be honored to host your special pets! I've been pet sitting for over 10 years and house sitting for about as long. I grew up in a family full of pets, so for as long as I can remember, I've been taking care of them — either my own or for other people.
