Description

Hello, We would like to welcome our dog friends to our private fully fenced wooded dog park we named The North Star Ranch. The North Star is positioned right over our entrance, and you might see it if you stay at the ranch late. Please bring your own water, snacks, poo bags. Also we have no trash collection, so please take your waste home with you. This is what we do as well. Consider a visit to our ranch a visit to nature that has been fenced in for your dogs’ convenience. And as in all Florida woods, there are some safety concerns you need to be aware of before your reservation. There are more or less visible stumps and vines all over the ranch. There are also some prickly cacti, buckthorn bushes and brambles. Tree logs and trunks have been arranged in some areas as edging for trails. The ranch is a work in progress and we are very slowly cutting prickly plants back to where they aren’t in dogs’ faces, but it’s taking us a while. Long pants and closed toed shoes are very much recommended. We also suggest tick spray if you’re worried about them. We find that in winter time they are rare. Mosquito cream is available during summer months at the gate. We recommend you use it. There is a 20 liter canister of water for dogs available at the picnic table along with a black rubber bowl. There is a back gate at the ranch and we don’t suggest venturing out of, as the back of the property is NOT fenced, and trails are grown over. Please stay in the fenced-in area only for your safety! We hope you and your dog enjoy lots of sniffing while you’re either strolling along or sitting down in one of our picnic areas. There is some agility equipment available at your discretion. Please use it wisely and look out for your pet’s safety first. Wilderness warning! ⚠️ Snakes have been spotted at the ranch several times. Our dogs run through the ranch daily, so wildlife is used to human and canine presence. This was their home before we enclosed it, so we respect their presence and move around them if we spot them. To this date we haven’t had any negative experience with the wildlife, and we surely want to see you stay safe as well. Keep your eyes open if you veer off the main paths, and have some treats in your pocket to help call your dog back to you in case of a snake sighting. The sightings definitely drop off in the colder months. We hope you enjoy our ranch as much us we do! Our dogs absolutely love it and we lovingly nicknamed this place our “sanity ranch”. Enjoy!

Cleanliness

100% of guests said this spot was as clean as expected during their visit.

Hazards

We are reopened post hurricanes. Cleaning debris is ongoing, we will advise guests when debris burning occurs. There is a small hole under the fence in the SW corner of the property. A teacup or tiny dog may be able to squeeze out in that spot, if they really want to. It’s a small critter pathway that I’m not willing to block them from using. Please pay attention in that area if your dog is tiny and motivated to dig their way out.

Hi, we’re TJ (Tjasa) and Eric and we’re your hosts. We have 2 German Shepherds and a rescue Belgian Malinois. We understand that off leash time is an important part of dogs’ biological fulfillment, so we want to share our woods with anyone wanting to provide that to their own dogs. Reach out to us with any questions about the ranch.

Feathered Fields Private Dog Park In High Springs

Fully Fenced

5 acres

Welcome to Feathered Fields! We are a family run farm with almost 6 acres of lush field for your pups to run and play. As a newly established “venue” we welcome feedback and ideas to expand on a comfortable, safe and fun experience for you and your pets! Currently we do not have electricity or water access on the field so we encourage all guests to bring proper hydration for your pets. Poop bags and a trash can are provided (see photos) but all guests are encouraged to provide their own supplies of course, if possible. Designated parking area for guests will be marked with RESERVED signs and a temporary key code will be assigned to guests for accessing the field during their allotted time. Feel free to bring your pups’ favorite toys! Firearms and live fires are not permitted on the property at any time! If desired, guests can bring chairs or sit back on the logs in the field and enjoy the sun while your pups have the time of their lives! Our property frequents deer so I’m sure they will enjoy the sniffortunities around the field!

The Zoomie Zone in University Park 🐾 🐕

Zoomies – a high-speed, reckless, frantic, exhilarating, and completely unstoppable burst of energy where your dog dashes around with pure, unfiltered joy. It’s an outward expression of inner happiness, a moment of pure canine euphoria that’s as delightful to watch as it is for them to experience 🐕 Welcome to The Zoomie Zone 🐕 As a dedicated Rover sitter, I understand that dogs crave heightened mental and physical engagement, often missing in apartment life. To address this, I've curated a secluded, shaded area in my backyard exclusively for you and your furry friend to unleash their energy with minimal distractions. ✨Tailored Play Areas:✨ Understanding that dogs thrive when their innate needs are met, I've tailored the space accordingly: 🔹 Sight Hounds: Satisfy their urge to chase with a flirt pole. 🔹 Herding/Working Breeds: Indulge their herding instincts with a dedicated herding ball. 🔹 Scent Hounds: Engage in nose work with scattered treats (yours or mine for an additional charge). Consider this space your dog's personal playground, where they can exert themselves fully before returning to your apartment, assured of a restful night's sleep. Our collection of toys includes a flirt pole, bungee tethered tree tug, frisbee, Chuck It fetch arms, herding ball, and herding egg, with the exciting addition of a Swift Paws Course lure coming soon! ✨Amenities for Dog Owners:✨ ◼️ WiFi Access: Enjoy free WiFi, perfect for students who want to study and play with their dogs casually. ◼️ Seating and Setup: Relax in seating for two while your furry friend plays. We're working on adding tables and chairs for your personal setup. ◼️ Cleanliness: A dedicated 💩 bag station and trash can ensure cleanliness. ◼️ Convenient Entry: Access via a coded lock. ◼️ Leash Hanger: Keep your leash handy. ◼️ Bluetooth Speaker: Enjoy your favorite tunes. ◼️ Parking: Convenient onsite parking is available. ◼️ Dog Wash Station: For a charge, ensure your pup comes home clean and tired from all the play. 🙅‍♀️Hands-Off Hosting:🙅‍♀️ We're hands-off hosts – you won't see us or our pets during your visit. Our two dogs will be safely inside or fenced off on their side of the yard, ensuring a peaceful environment for you and your companion. Welcome to The Zoomie Zone – where your dog’s happiness and your convenience come together!🐾 🐕
