🐾 About Me Dogs have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. In high school, I helped raise my family’s Goldendoodle from puppyhood — learning firsthand what it takes to build trust, establish routines, and nurture a dog through every stage of growth. During my four years of college, I went on to foster six dogs over my 4 years at UCLA: four puppies and two adults - each with their own unique needs. Whether it was managing special diets, administering medications, or simply giving extra patience and love to a dog still finding their footing, I learned how to adapt and show up for every personality and situation. Over the years I’ve built experience across a wide range of breeds: from energetic Labs and loyal German Shepherds to golden retrievers, terriers, poodles, and everything in between. Big or small, high-energy or laid-back, I know how to read a dog and meet them where they are. Being based in Ocean Park/Santa Monica and having a flexible work schedule, I am able to be genuinely present, not just fitting walks in between errands, but actually looking forward to them. Getting outside, putting in miles along the beach, and spending real time with dogs is something I genuinely love. Your pup won’t just be getting exercise, they’ll be getting attention, care, and a walker who’s happy to be there. I treat every dog like my own. I’d love to meet yours. 🐶
