Rent safe and private fenced dog parks hosted by locals in Oakland, California

I have a large space that I am sure a dog will love to run in. In the summer, the "grass" (more weeds than actual grass) gets very dry. Year round there are A LOT of burrs due to the dryness so if your dog has longer fur they might get some attached to them. As well, in the winter, post rain, it can get muddy back there. It's a fairly large open space with a longer run on the side. Also, I want to note that in the back of the property the fence is lower, around 4/4.5 feet (the rest of the yard is at least 6 feet), so if your dog is a good jumper, this could be an issue. Happy playing!

****This spot is only to be booked between 8am and 7pm daily. No booking before or after those hours. Please arrive on time and please book a minimum of 30 minutes in advance. Also please only 2 human guests max with the dogs. Thank you!*** Great yard with 6ft fence all around it in West Oakland. Perfect for hanging out or training with your dog or letting him or her roam free for an hour (or more!) while you get things done. Completely secured with extra gate between font and backyard. All breeds and dogs of any size are welcome but please leave yard as you found it (broom and trash can provided!) The spot is walking distance to West Oakland Bart station (About 10-12 minute walk). We have neighbors on either side of our home but it’s a very quiet neighborhood overall. Please do note that occasionally you can hear a dog barking from houses in the neighborhood or voices of neighbors enjoying their yard. There are chairs and a coffee table on the patio for your use, if desired, while your dogs explores. A bowl with water and a hose is provided. Also on the corner of my street is a cafe where you can buy breakfast, lunch or a quick snack for while you hang out or after you finish - I highly recommend it!

Nice green space

A lot of vegetation and places to sit down, meditate, read a book, study, or have a picnic. Your pup will love to play in our one-acre garden. Picking fruit or vegetable etc. is off the limit. Drinking water for animals is provided in various containers throughout the property. Please do not turn on or use any water equipment on our property - we had some serious problems in the past because of this. Please clean up after your dog’s “business”, smile. That’s a mandatory request. Waste bags are provided in a plastic box with other dog’s supplies) and a BROWN garbage can is in the front of the house by the street for your convenience. Thank you! Woof woof! 🌸 Note: in the rainy season we might not change the water for dogs because it’s senseless, so please arrive always with your own supply of water and if it’s raining you might like to wear rain boots as well. Have fun!

Aloha! Come enjoy a private wood in Piedmont with your pup! We have a driveway for parking, a fully fenced property, as well as additional fencing bordering the Sniffspot, Pono Pines. You will enter through the driveway, turn right into the gate, and follow the walkway through to the Grow Zone. Potty is okay in this first spot. Once you pass under the archways, you will see signs that say “no potty” for just a few yards until you reach the Pono Pines entrance. Pono Pines is equipped with an agility course, ball pit, fetch toys, enrichment toys, a water and wash up station, and many more amenities to make your stay a time of play! Be sure to give us a follow on IG: @ponopines

In the heart of North Oakland /Emeryville border this yard is a secret garden and lovely spot for all dogs. I am so happy to be able to share my yard with others who have dogs . I know how needed this was for me and my dog when we lived in an apt. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to make your visit more enjoyable.

Hi there! This yard is a fully enclosed corner lot. It wraps around the entire house for a lot of chasing fun! My small dog enjoys playing fetch without a worry in the world!

We've got a big fenced in space that's very shaded, has lots of cool stuff to sniff, and has several chairs. There's often blooming flowers, a big redwood & an acacia tree as well!

We are a team of hosts made up of two humans, Hailee and Ryan. And, 3 pups - Vincent, Ox, and Bonnie. We have options available to take our dogs to another safe space while visitors are here. The three pups who call this place home will gladly offer up their yard, or a sunny spot on the hardwood, to a four-legged guest with ample time to prepare... For Vincent, Ox, and Bonnie it means they get to go on an adventure with mom or dad. Usually a hike at Joaquin miller with mom if its a short stay, or to spend some time with dad at work - a wood shop with a yard in San Leandro, if it's a longer stay. While here, your dog will have full access to the yard and common areas of the house. Bedroom doors will be shut to remove any tempting smells. There will be a doggy door for access to the yard, but if we haven't yet mastered that means of egress, no worries! The human hosts Hailee or Ryan will gladly operate the big door for access to the yard.

Half an acre, fully fenced. Includes a 50x100 flat grassy area with regulation agility equipment.

Welcome to our home! 5 generations of my family have lived here since its construction in the 1950s. We’re excited to be able to share a part of it with you and your family! We have yard games and a hammock available upon request. Water for you and your pups, use of hose and private lounging areas. Toys, treats, pet CPR kit, hand sanitizer and waste bags for your four-legged friends are also available free of charge. Fire pit and kiddie pool available for a small fee.

The view is everything! We are a ten minute walk from the Glen Park Bart station and downtown dog friendly restaurants and bars.

Welcome to the most centrally located, easy-to-get-to spot in Los Altos Hills on the corner of La Paloma and W Fremont Rd & 2 mins away from downtown Los Altos. We just started Sniffspot and we’re loving it, and we hope you love our spot too! **We had one bad review on April 30th about a weed problem, NOT FOXTAIL, that’s since been resolved. We got rid of all the weeds that were inaccessible. They were accessing an inaccessible area that we now made accessible and posted numerous photos of weeds, NOT FOXTAILS, while claiming there are foxtails. The review is mistaken; there are zero foxtails. We DO NOT use pesticides or herbicides, hence the 1 or 2 weeds that sometimes get leftover and are hard to spot** Our yard is 100% fox-tail and thistle free (even in inaccessible areas like behind our beautiful oak tree). About the space: - Sprinklers turn on once a week for optimum grass health. - Multiple water bowls and a hose available. - Multiple seating options for large groups of people. - Toys available for your doggos - Hand sanitizer, poop bag dispenser, bin, pooper scoopers, and dog treats coming shortly

Hello, Alanna and Austin are opening our new Sniffspot for others to enjoy. The spot previously was used for horses; which we do not have anymore so figured we could use it as a spot for others to enjoy. You will see an electric fence, but it is not live so no need to worry. Please feel free to reach out with suggestions and enjoy! Thank you

Pups of all sizes enjoy this spot. Half acre property, fully fenced and gated, good privacy, lawn, pool, lounge chairs, small table and chairs, flower gardens, redwood trees, olive trees, persimmon trees, meditation garden, hummingbirds, and even a red fire hydrant. Optional pool access for people can be purchased as an Extra, by the hour and by the person. The pool is 73 degrees right now. We love all dogs and welcome dogs of all shapes and sizes and hair types to visit; however we can only offer pool access for non-shedding pups, as long hair and fur was unfortunately causing damage to the pool equipment; If you are booking for more than one non-shedding dog swimming or for longer than an hour, please message us with info about your dog(s) and we will create an extra for you for the number of dogs you have swimming . Most visitors find the lawn size ample for running around and throwing a ball a bit, but if you are looking for a field to throw a tennis ball as far as you possibly can with a Chuck-it, the yard is not really the right size and shape for that, sorry! Hours right now are 7:30am to 8:30pm. We look forward to your visit!

Hello dog parents! I have a fully fenced, two gate yard to provide privacy and peace for your fur babies. As of May 2024, I am renovating my doggie pond/deck area to provide a more friendly environment for the fur babies and the pawrents. There is still plenty of space, toys, and lots of grass for the pups to run around and get plenty of exercise. I hope you will visit soon! I also have a kiddie pool with towels provided to escape the heat of summer.

Enjoy almost an acre of grass and concrete, perfect for an hour or two of running, resting and playing. Park like setting with mature trees, lots of sun and shade.

Fenced in field behind a dog training facility (Bay Area K9 Association). Use it to play fetch with a single pup or host a dog play date session!

Fully-fenced yard in the Los Gatos hills on a quiet street. You can park in the driveway, and then enter through the wooden gate on the left (when you're facing the house), and then proceed into the backyard through the black gate. The yard is fully fenced with dog bags, toys, treats, and water available. Feel free to use my garbage can.

Large backyard with maintained lawn as the primary area, a shallow man-made pond near the house, shady side yard, multiple seating areas, & bocce ball court along the fence. Property backs to the creek & is lined with pine trees. We don’t treat the pond chemically as it is home to lots of frogs & our own pup likes to drink from it & climb in.

Beautiful 2 acres, sloping hillside leading to a lush pasture meadow. Peaceful and secluded, plenty of shade and also large sunny areas. Fresh waters available at all times. Fully fenced with 6 ft chain link, easy access and property hosts always on site

Our well-maintained and fully fenced backyard provides ample room for dogs of all sizes to exercise and explore. It's the ideal setting for playdates, fetch, or simply basking in the sun. Plus, we understand the importance of a clean and secure space for your dog's well-being. Your dog's safety and happiness are our top priorities, and our backyard is supervised to ensure a peaceful and enjoyable experience for all. So, why not treat your four-legged companion to a tail-wagging adventure in our backyard? Book your reservation now and give your dog the gift of a memorable outdoor experience.

A beautiful fenced-in 5 acre parcel with hills, a few trees, areas of short and tall grass. Dogs absolutely love it here. Occasionally we’ll see wild turkeys and a few deer (and a gopher or squirrel here and there) but otherwise a dog roaming paradise. Easy to pull in and park (near the empty barn) and there are several shady spots around property. I have a dog bowl, some treats and a few balls but also acquiring some more toys. My WiFi extends to a few areas outside the house but cell reception is fine here.

2 acre friendly dog park. Oasis style beach and pond, grass area, patio/gazebo with couches and table, and patio deck at pond with couch/chair and table. Shade or sun deck to relax while your dog enjoys swimming, ball throwing, etc.

A nice flat grassed area for you to exercise your dog. Large area to run or play ball with your dog.Ball launcher available sometimes( My dog is obsessed with it, so when I can sneak it away from her). Or use area for training one on one with your canine. An enjoyable experience noted by all guests visiting!! When you book a time it will just be you occupying the dog park. Welcome!! Sorry, no porta potty available, as it was put there by landscapers while they worked on property. Please do not book the 230pm time slot Mon-Fri if you have a reactive dog. Book the 3pm time slot as I rent the field out to a dog walker who leaves with many cars of dogs around 230pm or slightly thereafter, so that you do not cross paths with one another. Agility equipment area has just been added to sniffspot. Enter through secondary gate within sniffspot.Enjoy your visit!! Sometimes I have time slots available that do not show on calendar. You can message me and see if there is any availability on any particular day that may seem to be fully booked.
