55Easy to get to and safe for the dog!
55The area was a good size for my dog and toys, and treats were set out for her. Sharlene is amazing! She greeted us when we arrived and shared the story behind her rescue animals. It's a great place for your dogs to release their energy, and the fee goes to support the rescue animals!
55 Cute spot to allow the dogs to run around a bit. Can be quite loud with the highway adjacent but we will be back
55What a find! A lovely property and a great host! A peaceful rural setting with huge shade trees and lawns in suburban Westchester.
55Lovely setting with dog run for off leash sniffing and play. Beautiful leashed walks around large property with a chance to see horses and chickens from a suitable distance. Thoughtful, efficient, friendly host. This will be a go to spot for me and my 120 pound borzoi.
55Very cute spot with a great view!
35Sharlene is very welcoming. The space for dog exercise is fairly small, although fully fenced. There was water, some toys and treats. I had asked for a play date with her dog and that went well. we will return.
55Great experience! Sharlene was very welcoming, the dog run was great, and I had two tired pups at the end.
55Sharlene is a wonderful kind person and was incredibly accommodating. Our dogs had a wonderful time and we thoroughly enjoyed her property. Thank you for this great experience. :)
55Just an absolute lovely visit. Sharlene is wonderful and has an 11 year sweetie named Jimmy who my Finn just loved. It was a good day!

My dogs will be in the house and away from windows so you won’t see or hear them. If you want playmates for your pup, happy to discuss my two dogs and their personalities to decide if you want to make it like a playdate with one or both of my guys.

Description

Welcome pups & humans! Our fully-fenced dog run is a flat 60x30 feet area with low grass, dog toys, treats, water bowls, and treated with organic pest control for ticks and mosquitoes. Fencing is high for bigs, and goes completely down to the ground for littles! What we make thru Sniffspot goes to the care of animals we rescue! About 1/3 is shaded, Wi-Fi, covered porch and a dedicated shed aka “pup parlor” with sofa and chair to chill out in inclement weather. If added, we can set up the kiddie pool for your visit. Bug spray, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, and water for the humans. Pup playground is located on a 4-acre property (you can also have access to) called Graceland Meadows Animal Rescue & Sanctuary (www.gracelandmeadows.org) where we save pets and farm animals from cruel lives and needless deaths. The spot is named for our recently departed Rocco, our love and inspiration! Sniffspot fee goes to the care of the rescued animals. Currently we’re home to two rescued horses, six chickens, and four companion birds, located in their own separate enclosed areas. We have two rescued dogs permanently sanctuaried here for a year+ and possibly another one or two at times that we’re fostering. My dogs will be inside when you visit — unless you’d like your dog to have a playmate … in which case, happy to discuss and try out a playdate. If there’s anything we can do or add to make your time here more enjoyable, just let us know. Woof woof! 🐾 🦴 🐶
