Nice-sized yard, clean, and host is friendly. Plenty to explore, and even some activities for kids if they tag along!

This spot was great! It was our first time visiting a sniffspot, and their first time hosting. My dog is leash-reactive and generally an anxious boy, so it was so nice to get away from the city and be able to let him off leash without have to drive 45+ minutes from San Diego. We took a 25ft training lead for backup and first walked him around the area on leash so we could check it out and see if there were sreas to avoid. We then let him off and watched him explore! There was so much space for my little guy to run around, and it was so quiet compared to what we're used to. We heard people and caught a glimpse of a neighbor's dog, but Wiggles was occupied sniffing around (and rolling in the dirt lol) so he didnt mind. We could hear birds chirping and there was a beautiful view for the humans. We'll definitely be back!

First time user of Sniffspot. Good directions, easy to find. The property is as advertised. On the day we were there it was quiet. Plenty of space for my dog to explore and toss the ball. A great experience.

While the steep incline made it a bit tricky to interact much with our pups, they loved it since their favorite thing to do is leap up and down hills! Finding it is a bit tricky (bc the neighbors have orange cones too) but the host met us out front to guide us in.

Perfect spot for a run with shade. My 3 dogs have a lot of energy and the hill tired them out pretty quick. There is a metal hose and clean bucket for the dogs and pretty private with a view and even a hammock. I would go back.

Great open space, the hammock is an amazing touch, my dog didn’t run as much as I expected him to but we still had a nice break away from home. The downhill can make it hard to lead or follow your dog but it definitely will tire them out. Thank you Ali for being so welcoming and generous!

Host was extremely nice and yard was perfect and private enough for my two reactive dogs. Thank y’all so much for a wonderful experience this was my first time using this app and i definitely will continue.

Clean, shady, quiet place with enough incline to tire out my two pups. Very beautiful back yard! Will definitely book again.

WAY exceeded our expectations! She was very polite and totally offered to give us lots of space and privacy, but also offered to let her dog out to play with ours- they had a BLAST! She seems like a very competent trainer. Our dog is leaving pooped and happy! Will definitely be returning on a regular basis.

One of the best sniff spots I have visited. Even with the heat, there was so much shade and the water pond was so lovely for the dogs to cool down. Thank you again for the amazing visit. We will for sure be back again!

This was a lovely quiet place with beautiful landscaping and a nice view to boot. There was a lot of room for our puppy to explore and the scent from the citrus trees was devine. Thank you to the hosts for letting us come to enjoy the fireworks! We will be back!

Beautiful back yard 10/10 recommend… very shaded and loved the steps and and ledges for my pup to take leaps off of!

Sarah was very responsive to my message asking about other dogs on the property since my guy is reactive. She keeps her dogs indoors and not near the yard when there are visitors which is great. I was not sure if there would be enough room for fetch because of the pool, but there was plenty of room and my guy tired himself out quickly! There are also some stairs leading down to the pool and astroturf which my dog enjoyed racing up and down. The fencing seemed to be secure and in most places is very high. If your dog is reactive to cats you might want to reach out to the owner because the cats like to sit near the window/ sliding door and it appears there is a cat door and wire enclosure. Fortunately for us, its mostly dogs my guy has reactivity with but he is very nosey and was super curious about the cats he could see in the sliding glass door! There is plenty of street parking, the house is easy to find and it was great having a side gate entrance.

My 2 pups had a blast at Honey Bunny sniffspot. Huge, clean, and so much to explore. They were pooped before our time was even up! There was water and toys for our pups to play with and chairs for the hoomans 😊 Thank you Rachel and family for opening your sniffspot to us and other pup families ❤️

This was a great spot. Lots of room to roam around and sniff. My more active dog walked up and down the hills and enjoyed every inch of the backyard. We will gladly return.
