I work from home so I'm almost always with the dogs I watch. If they're comfortable with the beach it's now an option for playing in the water as rules have relaxed since covid.

Information Daniel H. would like to know about your pet

Just want to know of any aggression, destructive behavior or barking issues. Also separation anxiety or stress related issues I always need to know about beforehand.

A typical day

The grass next to the beach is great and a very good dog park on Pacific and main street. Now the beach has become dog friendly although I would not take your dog off-leash. My neighborhood is super dog friendly and I am good with playing ball and generally making my dogs happy and loved with lots of attention.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Daniel. Dogs that stay with me will have all my attention and enjoy the best of dog friendly Santa Monica by the beach at Ocean Park. I work from home and love having dogs at my house as well as walking about with furry friends, large or small. I would be very happy to watch your pup at my home and give them the love I have given my own dogs who have now passed on. I enjoy taking dogs out in all appropriate places and socializing with other dogs and the friendly people in our neighborhood. I use only positive reinforcement techniques in training. Having a mentally active, physically positive and safe experience is my priority. I've had great dogs and always looking forward to meeting new dogs and new people.

Daniel was great as always watching Spyro. He provided plenty of photos and updates, and he makes time away easier knowing Spyro is getting plenty of attention and enjoying himself.

Amazing as always. Daniel always takes such good care of Kazu and is very communicative. He let us know immediately about a minor medical concern and handled everything at the vet, medications, etc. we couldn’t be happier leaving Kazu with Daniel when we’re out of town!

Was very happy to have Daniel watch Spyro for us. Daniel was very communicative throughout the stay and kept us updated with plenty of pictures and it was obvious that Spyro was getting plenty of activity and attention.

Daniel always does an incredible job watching our dog - he takes him on lots of walks and gives him a lot of attention and love. Most importantly, he's very communicative and always lets us know how he's doing every day
