We loved our visit to Linda’s yard! There was plenty of space for the dogs to run around and sniff, and a fresh water bowl ready for them when we arrived. A small collection of various balls was on the outdoor table for our use. We were also able to use the doggie pool, which was a kiddie/wading pool. After some time for sniffing around and chasing a ball, Linda brought out her own dog, Scooby Doo, to play with our dogs. At the end, she generously provided towels for us to dry off our dogs. Everyone had fun!

Loved it! Lots of open space, places to explore and sniff, and shade. The fence was secure for little dogs (the fence is reinforced with wire). I have a little escape artist foster dog and he was secure in the yard. Very peaceful in the morning. Definitely will be back!

Linda was one of the most generous and kind people I have ever met! Not to mention her fenced in front yard was BEAUTIFUL! All three of my babies had the greatest time and got to hang out with her other two doggos named Scooby Doo and Rhoda Runner! they were all amazing and I will most definitely be back with my babies!

Linda was such a kind host and our 3 dogs had the best time in her yard. So many areas to explore for them. Her dogs were in the house and quiet. We arrived a few minutes late and she graciously allowed us to stay a little later. We would definitely come back next time we are in the area!
