55If you don't mind (or, better yet, enjoy)dust and dirt road driving, followed by hiking the same, then this is the spot!
Its amazingly beautiful, and depending on what you choose to do it can be physically challenging.
If you're not sure that you can control your dog off leash, then this is not a place to test it. There's so much for a dog to explore, but if you're capable of handling a long leash, then the 20 ft leash available to borrow will let your dog have all the fun while still being relatively safe. I had mine on 100 ft leash, but could have been fine with 50 ft.
Amenities are very well kept up with.
Make sure your car can handle steep slopes and serpentine roads. Liza P.

55This property is beautiful with a short trail and views of surrounding hillsides. There was plenty of room for the dogs to run around, and also for them to sprawl out and enjoy the tranquility when they were tuckered out! Amanda T.

55I appreciated the detailed instructions regarding the property’s parking, what was provided and what wasn’t.

55My dog is fear based aggressive and reactive- although we are training it’s really nice to not have to be on guard. We appreciate the opportunity to be free. The only thing I’d advise is there is a pot hole driving up. But otherwise THANK YOU!Kerstin G.

55What a beautiful location and lovely treat. This is our first time visiting and it was so nice to walk our two pups off leash and let them run. They are a bit reactive to other dogs and this was such a treat. Beware there are other dogs next door but it is fully fenced and wasn’t a problem. Already booked our next visit. Kasi C.

55Zion loved it, so we loved it. The directions were very clear and the space is great for sniffing, digging, jumping at lizards, and running as fast as you can. I just walked around with a ball that he doesn't know how to retrieve. It was great. Highly recommend!Jae H.

55My little family and I absolutely loved this space! It was such a beautiful little escape and the mountains were stunning! I mistakenly thought it was more of hiking spot than it is but that didn’t stop us from having two hours of fun! Our two dogs have pretty good recall and we’re off leash. There is a big open area and the trail is wide enough to run and play frisbee! Our dogs were tired for days after. The hiking area is probably a total of .25 miles in each direction (two possible directions). We went one way, spent time running and playing frisbee then went the other way before heading back to our car. We had a lovely time and I’d highly recommend this space! Also worth keeping in mind that the main path connects to what seems like a service road at the bottom and we did encounter a couple of trucks come through. It wasn’t an issue for us but we definitely made sure to not have our dogs go that far down.Nare n.

55My dog Ella & I had a nice relaxing time at Quail View Ranch private dog park. Beautiful serene area up in the mountains in Thousand Oaks. Lots of birds and the sound of the nearby creek. Ella loved sniffing around.
The last part of the drive is a dirt road with several potholes so drive slow & be careful. Worth the drive. Mary M.

55Absolutely breathtaking property. There is enough flexibility to make it an easy or challenging day out with your dogs. I kept my girl on a 30ft lead while we explored the wide trails. Next time I’m booking two hours and bringing a picnic lunch. The directions given were super easy to follow. Be aware that the private dirt road and steep driveway are NO JOKE. Please make sure you drive SLOW like 3-5mph and have a sturdy car. The potholes and uneven pavement due to the rain are aplenty.Mae P.

55Beautiful property and very well maintained. Would definitely recommend. I booked two hours and it was the perfect amount of time. We were able to hike and explore and then went to hang out by the picnic tables and enjoy the views. My dog absolutely loved it. Gladys A.

55Such a great spot!! It’s a bit tucked away, but that’s what makes it so special. I like that Koko can run around freely and get the hiking experience without having to worry about running into other pups. I have been there twice and it’s always beautiful. It is worth the drive and it is the only Sniffspot around the area where I live that offers something like this. Highly recommend!Laura P.

55Beautiful property! Rowan enjoyed all the new smells. Couple of things to consider. I went in the early afternoon and it was quite warm. Suggest early morning. The driveway is very steep. Consider the vehicle your taking with that in mind. Thanks again, Jen!Joy D.

55We had a great time! Thanks so much to the host for having us! Views are stunning and our dog had a great time going up and down the trails! Our rescue pup is fear-reactive so it’s amazing being able to see her confidence build in new spaces while working on her recall 💞 Worth the drive from L.A& Excited for the next visit now that we’re familiar with the area! Also was very fun driving up to the property- I have a jeep so I very much enjoy the dirt roads! Thanks again! Brenna T.

FAQ about our Thousand Oaks dog fields
Are dog fields safe?
If you are looking for an adventure, but also looking for safety, Sniffspot dog fields are a great option. While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, distracted dog owners, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private space for just you and doggy friends you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). Especially for training, privacy is ideal. Contrary to public dog parks, all Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog for off leash exercise or outdoor training. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars, while public dog parks often do not even have verified reviews. All payment is done securely online by credit card in a few simple clicks.
How can I find dog fields in Thousand Oaks?
There are 16 dog fields in the Thousand Oaks area. The most popular dog field is Enjoy Serenity at Quail View Ranch!. You can browse all of our dog fields here.
How do I know if a dog field works for my dog?
All park rental information is available online. Start by filtering parks by fencing, size and distractions, to find a private spot that works for your dog. If your dog has poor recall, you can visit one of our secure fields. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our dog fields where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can review the details of the listing to make sure it works as your desired activity space, for example, safe dog exercise, dog training, a stress-free adventure with your furry friend or even a puppy event. You can even check the park amenities chart for amenities such as indoor training facilities, agility field, synthetic turf, exercise balls or field parking availability in advance. If inclement weather is an issue or poor field conditions, you can reschedule your visit up to 2 hours in advance.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot dog field?
We require that all four-legged friends have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that guests sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. Make sure to check host rules before visiting to ensure, for instance, that you are following allowable sports activities rules and any special events rules.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot field at the same time as me?
No. Facility rentals are for private play time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the area during visits, so this is perfect for a private adventure for you and your doggie friends, and perhaps a human friend. Hosts understand that many guests have dogs in training and are nervous owners. So when you book a Sniffspot dog field you have the entire private spot to yourself. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between time slots so you will not run into other guest dogs or a previous person when coming or leaving in the field parking area. Some hosts may have multiple fields, but there is always a buffer between fields.
How much do Sniffspot fields cost?
Dog fields in the Thousand Oaks area range from $6.0 and $6.0. The least expensive dog field is Best Small Yard in Seattle!. The most expensive dog field is Best Small Yard in Seattle!. Each host sets their own price, so you can check the price on the specific Sniffspot dog park listing.
