I have a very reactive pup so hard to take him out But this place works perfect totally secure not a lot of noise and he loves it!

Just what we needed! Enough room for leg stretching and there were chairs for the humans. Water was provided for everyone - and a magic chew toy with a tennis ball my pup is currently obsessed with. We will be back.

What a wonderful time we had! I have a newly adopted rescue who is still learning leash reactivity, and we don't have a yard just yet, so this was the perfect thing! The yard was just big enough for Elvis to run around and play. We even got a little welcome gift for being their 1st guests! A squeaky hamburger for my dog and a treat for me! He liked the agility poles, and he especially loved the stuffed toy that was out there despite the balls I brought and the great sticks around the yard. His faves are stuffies 💖 Thank you for everything! When it gets a bit warmer, we will return even more.

Reyna is super communicative and accommodating! The yard was set up with a pool and agility course, a selection of toys, and a water bowl. Street parking was easy to find.

Host was super nice and very accommodating of our last minute booking! Left cold waters in a cooler on this 90° day and had plenty of water for the puppies, as well as the pool! Such a fun time, thank you!!

This was our first experience with #sniffspot. No regrets! We loved it! My doggies were safe and exited. One of them is an expert escaping. He didn't find a gap. The owner is so friendly and helpful. The place in general is clean with a pool, toys, and more for doggies. Also, chairs for people. My dogs loved the tunnel ❤️.

What a great Sniff Spot ! The yard was immaculate , the toys were almost unnecessary, they were having so much fun! The pool was a favorite !!! The host was so thoughtful , leaving water bottles in a cooler for us , signs hung around that could answer questions we may have had and a great communicator through Sniff Spot. Our 3 dogs left happy and exhausted. We will definitely book again

We LOVE this sniff spot! Chalula's backyard is so spacious and has everything you need. Water for pulse and people, chairs to relax, and all kinds of activity for the pups. My dogs loved the puppy pool and sniffing in the garden. Chalula also shares a whole bucket of toys! We will certainly be back!

We had so much fun! Yard is very private and secure. Plenty of room and toys. My dog couldn't even hang the whole hour, she tired herself out real fast lol. Water bottles from the host are such a nice touch. Thank you!

Oh we LOVED our visit! It was our first time at a Sniffspot and I had fun knowing my dog was going to have a special day. Lovely backyard with chairs and a kiddie pool and pots of spearmint and rosemary and lots to sniff. It was a pleasure to accidentally meet Rayna. I knew she was wonderful based on her space. We will be back. Thank you.

Our first experience with Sniffspot!! This yard was literally 6 blocks from me! She was totally communicative, really helpful and sweet and the yard was clean and mowed and perfect! Affordable too! It was our first time with my granddoggy in a yard and he is highly reactive and when we walked in he could hear that they had a dog, there was some barking and it completely threw my doggy off unable to concentrate but she immediately put the dog away and we heard nothing for the remainder of the time and were able to totally enjoy! We will be back weekly to this location 😁 🐕 Thank you so much for a great first experience!!!

We had such a great time! The agility course was so fun and new, plus there was extra toys in a bin. It was very secure and easy parking.

My dog, Rome had so much fun in Cholula’s yard! Everything was exactly as the host said it would be so there were no surprises. Rome loved sniffing and running over every inch of the yard. The fence was super secure so I didn’t have to worry. It was quiet and peaceful. Overall a perfect experience and I’ll definitely be booking again very soon!

Helpful and clear communication from the host, backyard was gorgeous and so fun for a hot summer day. Nice surrounding neighborhood too. Thanks for having us!!

This was our first time checking this location out and it was great! Nice neighborhood, street parking was easy to find. Yard is spacious and as advertised. There was a pool, agility, bed, and water for your dog as well as a container with toys. We usually bring our own, but it’s nice that it’s offered. Tall and full gated made it easy to relax with my dog Willow who is dog reactive and people selective. We heard one dog bark but not an issue and it was literally once when we walked in. Definitely recommend this location and look forward to coming again.

Absolutely amazing 10/10 I would come here again without question. I spend a beautiful Saturday early afternoon here with my dog and she could not be happier. The place is perfect. I was able to park easily. I was able to speak with and communicate with the owner before hand, so there was no confusion about coming in or anything like that. There was water and toys and an agility and pool equipment provided. it was a perfect enclosed area with no distractions and a beautiful lawn. I’ve been to many SniffSpot and I would come back here without a question. A wonderful spot and well worth the price point. Can’t think the owners enough! What a wonderful day for my dog and myself! :)
