I have had a dog ever since I was born. Our family dog, Koa, lived until she was 15 years old, and ever since then I have tried to fill the void she left by helping neighbors in my neighborhood to look after their own dogs when they are out of town. I am genuinely invested in a dog's well being, and would go the extra mile and spend time with them by playing with them, in addition to taking them for walks. I live close to the beach, so beach walks along the Esplanade would absolutely be guaranteed. I would also be sure to consult with the dog owners to make sure their dogs can interact with other dogs or people while on walks. I work in Manhattan Beach usually from 8am-4pm or 9am-5pm. Depending on location, I can leave on lunch breaks and can check up on your dog during the day so they are not alone for extended periods of time in one sitting.
