55Ah, the bliss of a Friday. Even though the days tend to blend together during our Pandemic Times, it's always nice to have the weekend to look forward to, when Kingsly can relax on his patrols a bit. Today, he contentedly soaked up the sun, after sniffing every corner of the premises to make sure there were no interlopers lurking about.Tasha H.

55We had a wonderful time letting our dog run around the space. It was a hot day, so Amanda filled up a kiddie pool so our pup could cool herself off. Amanda was a great host. We were able to socially distance and make ourselves at home. Mary I.

55We had a wonderful visit! This is a charming rustic spot, with natural terrain and several patio levels for lots of sniffing and exploration. We enjoyed the sunshine and Amanda's delicious coffee and generous hospitality, while the dogs ran and played. We'll definitely be back. Peter C.

55Alas, our time in District 7 of CalCascadia is nearing an end, but we will return so that Kingsly can continue patrolling the Canyonlands. We feel assured that we will be leaving things in good stead with Amanda and in her capable hands. Her place has been a true lifesaver for us - I'm quite sure both Kingsly and I would have lost our minds if he hadn't had a place to run around, stretch his legs, sniff at the fresh air, chase squirrels, bask in the sun, etc. for all the time we've been in CA. This place is perfect for all of that and more.Tasha H.

55Our time here in District 7 of CalCascadia has, sadly, come to an end, as we begin our return to District 11. We are quite sure that, whatever portion of our sanity is left at this point, it would be completely gone after 2 months of pandemic lockdown had we not been able to go to Amanda's Hideaway. Kingsly would hate me and would have surely expanded his scope of prey from King Cobras to, well, everything else. Thankfully that hasn't quite happened, I think.
We will miss this beautiful oasis of tranquility and calm, in an increasingly crazy world. But we'll certainly be back to District 7, and so we'll be back at this lovely place. Amanda, Kingsly and I are eternally thankful for all your loveliness and kindness! <3 Tasha H.

55We live in an apartment in the city. We’d love to take our small rescue to dog parks, but she unfortunately is reactive to other dogs and gets stressed out when she sees them. This sniffspot was awesome! We reserved it for 2 hours, which was good because it took an hour for our girl to sniff out the whole property (and chase a lizard) before she got comfortable. She loved exploring and running through all the tree branches. There were dogs on the property who were sectioned off so we couldn’t see them. Our dog was curious about them barking and went to investigate a few times, but ultimately wasn’t bothered. Amanda was very welcoming and even alerted me to chance of rain when I initially booked a different day. There was ample water available for both pups and people, and a nice deck area for picnics. This was our first time using sniffspot and we’re all very happy with our visit!Karina V.

55It was our second time here and we can’t wait to go again. Our husky immediately runs up to Amanda after she closes the gate to get a quick pet before running off to explore. We went on a cool evening and Amanda text ahead of time that she had coffee brewing and to bring a sweater. This is such a relaxing, beautiful, and peaceful place not just for our dog, but also for us with an hour of quiet time outside of the city. We can’t wait to come back again and again. Danielle A.

55This spot looks beautiful in the pictures, but it’s even more beautiful in person. Totally exceeded my expectations. We had a blast!! Amanda was so thoughtful. She had a sign welcoming us as well as snacks, cold drinks, and coffee. The yard was equipped with water bowls, toys, a hose, and a pool! She also had spray and hand sanitizer, which was really great during this time. The area is HUGE and our pup, Skip, had so much fun exploring. There’s also plenty of shade if the sun gets too hot. We will definitely be back!! Great experience all around. Chelsea H.

55This has to be the absolute coolest thing - my two pups, my friend and I had the BEST time at Amanda’s place! The soot is great, tons of space, tons of things to sniff, and tons of water bowls all over the place to make sure the pups are comfortable. We stayed for two hours, had a picnic, played fetch, sniffed every tiny corner - we had a blast and will absolutely be back! Amanda even left some cold beverages for us humans and was very kind when she welcomed us. Andree-Ann D.

FAQ about our West Hills dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 97% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the West Hills area are 5 stars.

You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 255 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 38 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
