55Always one of our favorite spots to walk!
55We celebrated our pup’s Gotcha Day at Kara’s ranch! It was a lovely steep hike that was nicely paved/mowed down. We even got to see some heifers up close! We really appreciated that Kara was so communicative and responsive; make sure to meet her at the very start of her and her neighbor’s driveway (we accidentally drove in). The pups had a blast roaming around the ranch and we even did a brief sunset photoshoot! Thanks, Kara, for hosting us! 😍
55Wow! This place is spectacular! Karalee was super welcoming and helpful- tipped me off to wear boots after the recent rain. Thigh busting hills were perfect for the puppy. He had his nose in the air the whole time sniffing cows. Loved it!
55First time here and can’t have asked for a better private hiking area. It’s very well setup and particularly if you have a dog who can climb the initial hill, it’s then tone of space to walk through. Very nice host and I’ll be back z!
55Great property! (Would recommend hiking boots)
55My dogs got to go for a real hike! This spot is a true blessing for those with reactive dogs. Most sniff spots do not work for us and this spot was perfect for us. Karalee helped us make it a great morning. Thank you!
55This spot is absolutely amazing! What a gift to be able to walk around such a beautiful property with my pups and get a great hike in. Karalee is very kind and helpful in explaining the property and so welcoming. You must check out this spot! I forgot my phone in the car so I don’t have pictures but will make sure to get some for next time.
55What a lovely spot for a hike! There are some steep climbs on the trail but dogs are good and tired. We will definitely be back again!
55This Sniffspot is perfect! The loop that goes up the hill and back around to the driveway took us about 35 minutes. There is a lot of room to explore! Be prepared that going up the hill is quite strenuous and wear good shoes as there are some holes on the path. Our dogs had a blast running around. We will definitely be back!!
55This is the perfect run wild adventure spot! We loved our hike on this gorgeous ranch. Karalee is wonderful. My dogs loved her. Can’t wait to go back for more exploring.

There is a dog that lives on another ranch across the road. He usually stays in his yard. His name is Bruno and he is very friendly. You may see the dog if you decide to walk down the hill at the beginning of the driveway but don’t be alarmed. I will notify the owners every time I have guests so they know to keep him tied up and away from the ranch.

We have heifers (young cows) that you may see from time to time. They are shy and usually stay away but they do get curious when they see dogs but they will not harm them or you. So no worries! More than likely you will not see any heifers on your walk. Again if you do, do not be scared because they are more afraid of you than you are of them:)

You may see someone driving up or down the driveway but not often. If you decide to walk up the driveway then you may see someone driving home or to work but if you decided to walk up the dirt road that goes up the hill then you will not see anyone. Occasionally I have a family member that splits wood across the driveway from where you park. I will let him know when my guests will be visiting so there won’t be any distractions.

Hi my name is Karalee. I am a certified nurse assistant who specializes in caring for patients with many different conditions and needs and I love animals. I have a Pomeranian rescue from China. Her name is Freya. She’s my baby and I love giving her the love and life that she didn’t experience before I adopted her. I heard about SniffSpot and thought my ranch would be the perfect place to walk dogs. It’s far from town, it’s beautiful, it’s private and far from neighbors. I do have one neighbor across the road that is also a ranch and private. I hope you come out and visit my ranch and if you do I hope you enjoy the beauty of it and the privacy it gives.
