Simi Dog Park

It’s a fine park but I hate that I have to bend down to operate the water spicket, making my face level to any other dog wanting water at that time. It’s unsafe.
It’s so out of the way, sure it’s pretty to look out at but I’m focused on my dog. Playing, having fun and getting ready to pick up my dog poop.
I’m glad there is a dog park for sure!

Nice peaceful dog park with great views! I’m a professional dog trainer and enjoy coming here with my clients and their dogs to work on dog training & socialization skills.

This is a great dog park, located in a beautiful canyon. The park is clean and has bowls for water, benches, and tables for the owners. The people that bring their dogs to the park really love their dogs. Everyone is so kind and cleans up after their dogs. The park provides beautiful views of Simi Valley and the Regan Library.

Took Loki to this park over the weekend and by far, the best dog park I’ve visited! I’m not from the area and it wasn’t very difficult to find. Quick tip would be, «CONTINUE TO DRIVE UP, UNTIL YOU SEE THE PARK ON YOUR LEFT HAND SIDE». I think the first park you see on your right side was a baseball park or something.
The view was spectacular! It was clean and the grass was really nice to see for a change. Very well kept. Loki definitely enjoyed himself! However, there weren’t very many shady area where the parents can hang out. Nonetheless, I’ll be back!

I starting bringing my dog sporadically and over time i’ve become a regular at the Simi Dog Park. It’s one of the nicer parks I’ve seen/​been to in the Los Angeles area.
The dog park itself sits at the top of the Big Sky subdivision of Simi Valley, which is a very nice part of town north of the main sprawl of Simi Valley. It’s situated above Big Sky Park, a very nice complex with several ballfields, half a streetball court, a playground for the kids, and «facilities.» Parking can be a bit of an issue on days when the baseball/​softball leagues play, but its not too big a deal.
As with most dog parks, it’s divided into Large Dog and Small Dog sections. Each side has plenty of space, with the small dog side covering just over ³⁄₅ acre, and the large dog side spanning a massive 2 acres, though about half of that is currently fenced off for maintenance. Each side has access to fresh water and plenty of benches and tables, a few of which have shade.
The landscaping is beautifully maintained, with trees (hopefully growing to provide more shade) and grass throughout. The grass may or may not stick around depending on how this drought goes, and there are already a few bare spots scattered around on both sides of the park. As the park is nestled in amongst the foothills of Simi Valley, you’re right there with the wildlife. I’ve seen snakes on the road leading up to the park. The fence is lined with a snake barrier to keep the dangerous reptiles out, but on rare occasion they do find their way in. I’ve never seen it, but I’ve heard about incidents. I’ve never heard of a dog or human being bit, though.
The Parks department provides trash cans and pooper-​scoopers, with a few boxes provided for people to store surplus plastic grocery bags for poop cleanup.
The park is maintained weekly, and is generally pretty clean (as dog parks go). They occasionally over-​water, resulting in muddy conditions, but that’s about as bad as it gets.
Oh, and did I mention the view? On a clear day you can see all the way out to the Reagan Library.
THE PEOPLE…
The park is at it’s busiest on weeknights and can get pretty crowded on the weekends, but there’s plenty of space for everyone.
95% of the people I’ve encountered at the dog park are very friendly and very courteous to one another. There are a few eccentric people who frequent the park, and disagreements arise from time to time for this reason or that, but they generally work themselves out pretty quickly. The park rangers are available and make regular stops to ensure everything is going okay. I’ve never had a major issue.
Scuffles between dogs are a regular part of the day at any dog park, and Simi Dog Park is no different. You’d be wise to keep an eye on your pup and be aware of the other dogs in the park. Trust your instincts.
Overall, this park is a gem.

Great Dog Park! Beautiful views and lots of grassy area. The park seems clean but my husband and I both stepped on poop. Be careful where you step!

This has to be one of the nicest dog parks I have ever been to and the view is spectacular as well. I used to come here a lot with my German Shepherd but she has passed now and I’m not able to go there anymore. One day I shall return with a new dog probably another German Shepherd because those are my favorite type of dogs.

We live in LA but actually drive out here a few times a year and make a day of it because this park is just that incredible. Love it out here, great and attentive owners, beautiful views with so much grassy area for the pups to enjoy!

I’ve taken my Yorkie to the Simi Dog Park twice now (both in the same weekend), and was thoroughly impressed with the cleanliness of the park, how courteous and friendly the pups and their owners are, and how much my dog loves the park already.
Everyone cleaned up after their dogs. All puppy parents were welcoming and friendly with other’s dogs. We’re going to make Simi Dog Park part of our regular weekend routine.

Not impressed, i’ve been to a lot of dog parks and I know every dog park has little Clicks but this park has a bad case of it. I guess I was just the lucky one to go on a night where most of the dogs there shouldn’t of been at a dog park I’ll put it that way.

This is by far the cleanest and probably the most peaceful dog park I’ve been to. Yes, there were a couple inattentive doggie owners that did not pick up after their dog, but it’s still the cleanest park I’ve been to!
I love that this park is hidden towards the back end of the semi newly built homes in Simi and love at how peaceful the whole area is. You can’t help but feel gratitude when you’re surrounded my the mountains and your furbaby having fun with others.
The parking can get crowded and I’m sure can overflow. Thankfully when we came, we found a spot in front. All dogs enter at the middle of the park and then separates (big dogs to the left, small to the right). Since my dog is small, I can only speak on the right side of the park. Once you enter the small side, there is an adorable dog house water fountain with two spouts and of course trash cans and some doggie bags around the park. There’s also a bulletin board with events going on and dog safety rules.

One of the best dog parks to bring your four legged children. There are plenty of great views as well as plenty of space for your dogs to run around and enjoy themselves. It does get hot, so later in the afternoon or in the morning would be a great time to bring your dog if the weather is going to be hot that day. The people you meet are friendly and you and your dog will have a great time.
Parking is usually a non issue as you will find parking.

Cool dog park with a great view. Nestled in the hills of Big Sky subdivision in Simi Valley.
Plenty of parking. Decent grass considering we’re in California.
Our dog loves it here. Best to come when the sun sets a bit (after 6PM in the summer) or there may not be many people/​dogs around to play with.
I’ve been told snakes sneak in from time to time, despite the snake fence, so keep an eye on your pooch.

Yes this place needs to be kept a secret! It’s honestly a really nice and clean dog park. Where they section off the park itself from the smaller breeds and the bigger breed of dogs. It’s super cool. I’m coming back here.

Eeeeek, I almost want to keep this park a secret! lol it’s the PERFECT dog park. All the dogs and their owners are awesome and friendly with of course a few rare exceptions, the few who litter and don’t pick up after their dogs. Other than that all the dogs are friendly and playful to one another. The park is really well taken care of and has water, water bowls, poop scoops, benches, and picnic tables and drum roll a breath taking view of Simi Valley. Just the location alone is drop dead gorgeous. There’s a really good vibe, which I think influences the dogs to be on good behavior. The park is divided in two: big dogs and small dogs.
There’s a fence that divides the two sides which leads me up to my favorite part abut the whole park. I think it’s absolutely adorable and entertaining watching the big dogs and the small dogs run up and down the fence. It’s harmless, and probably a lot of fun for the dogs. I haven’t seen any aggressive behavior from the dogs, maybe just some minor reactions from the first encounter, but it’s nothing serious.
I had a stigma about dog parks since the ones I’ve seen or read about are usually crowded and reeking of piss and poo with rude owners and misbehaved dogs. This park has some stank but it’s not awful. It’s a great place for you and your dog to mingle with other cute dogs and it’s safe to bring your children here.
Tips: Bring hand sanitizer or wet wipes to sterilize yourself especially if you’re wearing open toe shoes or shorts or if you handled a toy ball. It’s a dog park there is piss and poo everywhere. It can get really hot even in the late afternoon (about 90 F in the summer) and shade is limited and could be casting away from where you are sitting, so bring a hat and sun glasses, SPF, and a water bottle, take precautions to avoid heat stroke or sun poisoning. There are some community tennis balls on site so help yourself.

Just yesterday, I decided to take my dog to the park again after 2 months. He was playing with another dog friend of his when a random dog bit him AND his friend.
I had to take my dog to the hospital yesterday to get STITCHES. He is on antibiotics right now and on pain medication. If you decide to take your dog to this park, do so with CAUTION. There are untrained/​unsocialized dogs with very bad behavior. Again, you never know what’s going to happen so just be careful and keep an eye on your dog. Unfortunately, I was looking in another direction when my dog got bit so I didn’t get to see who did it to him. Otherwise, I would have reported the incident to the park officials.

This is our favorite dog park to go to in the Conejo Valley. It’s spacious (even though it’s separated for big and small dogs), has posted rules that are generally followed, ample water supply for the dogs, covered and uncovered tables and benches, rakes and pans for scooping poop, LOTS bags that are supplied by the community (there has never been a shortage), trees & grass (gets a little muddy during the wetter seasons), ample parking, and a port-​a-​potty that’s serviced regularly.
Most of the people who come here are pretty friendly too. I’ve never seen an altercation between dogs that wasn’t properly handled by their owners. Some people will leave extra tennis balls.

It’s great to have such a nice dog park in Simi. The park is divided into two sections. One side for big dogs and the other side for little dogs.
There are several picnic tables for humans to sit at while dogs run around. There are also several trash cans and pooper scoopers for owners to clean up after their dogs. I am happy to say that I have almost never seen a poop go unscooped. I’m glad that the overwhelming majority of dog owners are quick to clean up after their doggies.
Speaking of doggies, Sammy wants to add his comments to this review:
Woof, woof, woof, bark, bark, pant, pant, pant, pant, bark, bark, WOOF! WOOF!

Simi dog park is awesome! The park itself is well-​maintained. There are two separate sections for big and small dogs, as well as signs discouraging small children, which is great for my dog that’s not comfortable around children. She seems to think they’re strange bi-​pedal crazy dogs. The park also provides water bowls and a spout to pour fresh water. There are benches and tables if you want to sit and relax while your dogs play.
The best part about the Simi dog park for me has been friendly people. Occasionally, there are going to be tiffs between dogs, but I have never seen people arguing over it or placing blame. People seem to be watching their dogs very closely as any fights I’ve seen were quickly split up. People have also never gotten upset and my cocker spaniel screaming at passersby to protect me and my bench.
Overall, I have three dogs, big and medium, well behaved and not and this park is all of their’s favorite place!

This is a great dog park!
Unfortunately, Simba was an anti-​social little guy and didn’t play too much with the other dogs…
If your dog isn’t as anti-​social as my dog, he/​she will LOVE this park! There are a lot of dogs to play with even during lunch time on the weekdays. It’s an extremely clean park sectioned off into the big dog area & the small dog area. Though dogs are not restricted to their designated areas, the park is sectioned off into the big dog area & the small dog area. There’s a lot of room for the dogs to run and play.
The owners are all very courteous and make sure to clean their dog’s poop.
