55Great spot in a pretty area! There is a nice little trail that loops around the property, as well as a large fully fenced play yard for fetch and off-leash play. Our host was super thoughtful and even provided water for the humans! Arabella R.

55Wonderful place, Clean and safe even for my little long haired dog, the big bonus there is no foxtail grass. My dogs where in heaven with so much area to explore. Room enough for my Whippet Maya to chase her tennis ball.Cheryl W.

55Caren’s place is amazing! So well taken care of, stocked with water, toys galore, dog bags, and lots of little extras for the humans like wipes and sunscreen. The shaded area is a nice spot to get cool. Our two dogs loved this space! We were completely alone and ran around till we were all tired. Caren was also a fantastic host on our first visit. We highly recommend this clean and weed/foxtail free sniff spot. We will be back for sure!Leah P.

55This place is a hidden gem! The spot was well-maintained, clean, fully-fenced, and spacious. There is shade and comfy chairs for the humans and buckets of water for your dog. Perfect place for playing fetch and tiring out your doggos. Worth the 1 hour drive from PB. Caren and her husband are the best hosts, they are so kind and sweet! We can’t wait to come back :)Alliy S.

55We had a great time! Venue is clean and well-kept. My dutchie/cattledog mix loved exploring and running in the big open space. Great fencing. There were two fresh buckets of filtered water when we arrived, along with everything else we may have needed- poop bags, trash bin, toys, paper towels, bug spray, etc.
Host is lovely and hospitable. Responds quickly to texts.
We will definitely be back!Jennifer Y.

55Tons of room to run and some slight hills which gives even a better workout for the dogs. It was nice to drive right into the property and let my dogs right out of the car so they can just start running right away. Someone helpfully closed the gate behind us.Vickie C.

55nice large yard with a huge back area, which is a field that has recently been cleared so there is a lot of straw. Not a problem for us, my dog loves playing in gopher fields! Friendly communicative hosts. Seating & a table provided. We came across a few gross nature things (a dead bird, some probably gopher body parts) which is normal for us as my dog is a scent hound and finds all things gross, but I mention it here in case someone has a young dog who eats everything, you'll want to keep an eye on them.
Fun field with plenty of space to run, play, and dig. Michele S.

55This Sniffspot is perfect! I couldn't ask for anything more. Big, spacious lot. The whole perimeter is secure and fenced in. There's a tiny little creek in the shade that's nice for the dogs to cool down. Near the creek are lots of rocks, big, small, and huge, perfect for dogs to explore in. The hosts are very nice and provide chairs to sit in, water bowls, water, dog toys, potty bag. The whole place is very clean, I didn't see any dog poop anywhere. It's clearly taken care of very well. I only wish it was closer to me! I will definitely be back! Tracy H.

55Great spot with tons of flat open space to let your dog run free. Ken messaged me about where to park before I arrived but when I got there wasn’t sure how far forward to pull up (my fault) but he met me at the gate and showed me, then closed the gate behind me. Only thing I’d note is that there are some small foxtails in the yard, but as long as you take a minute to check your dog it’ll be fine.Ben F.

55Was a great spot! Just as a heads up to others, when we got there I checked the property and there was a cat. Asked if he could be taken inside and within a minute they came outside to get them. Was super inpressed, but make sure to do a sweep of the property in case. Overall the property had so much land to let the pups run and not too many things for them to get into trouble with or ruin. The landscape had some bigger holes to be cautions of but wasn't an issue and was locates more near the perimeter of the property. You could see a few people through the fences like a neighbor doing work, but there's so much space it didn't cause a distraction for my dogs. Its a great time for your pups, would definitely recommend.Megan M.

55My dogs had a great time here today. The terrain was flat which is ideal for my ball playing lab/pit. The host was kind to change my date and time due to the rain. It was a nice large property for my dogs to run and explore the scents. They're all resting happily now.Do C.

FAQ about our Anza 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. 96% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the Anza area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 226 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 23 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.
