Tarzana, named after the jungle hero Tarzan, stays true to its adventurous roots with excellent access to nature. The southern edge of the neighborhood borders the Santa Monica Mountains, offering trailheads like Caballero Canyon, a local favorite for dog walkers seeking a workout and sweeping valley views. The gentle grade makes it accessible for active dogs and owners.
While Tarzana is quieter and more residential, it sits just minutes from the Sepulveda Basin Recreation Area, giving residents easy access to one of LA’s best off-leash parks. The neighborhood’s wide, hillside streets are also perfect for challenging leashed walks. Tarzana offers a sophisticated, semi-rural feel that provides plenty of room for dogs to thrive.
