What It Is

A different kind of attention.

Most of our dogs are pack dogs. Some aren't yet. Some have temporary medical or behavioral reasons for solo time. Some just need a quiet hour with one trusted person. Private walks are for those moments. One handler, one dog, on your schedule.

Who It's For

Built for specific situations.

Dogs in recovery from injury or surgery

Reactive dogs working through training before joining a pack

Senior dogs who need slower pace and individual attention

New rescues during their first weeks of integration

Pack members who need an off-week solo walk

Who It's For

How It Works

Private walks are available on a limited basis, with priority going to current pack members. We're often at capacity. If you're not currently a member, joining the waitlist is the right move.

Client Love

We treat every dog like family. Here is a look at the experiences of our local pack members.

  • Eric is the epitome of EXCELLENCE! Eric has positively changed our lives: I never thought of my dog going on hikes with a pack. He loves it and he loves Eric, and now has a much fuller, healthier and happier life. Eric is so conscientious, knowledgeable and intuitively great with dogs. We completely TRUST him and are very grateful we found him. I give ERIC 5 STARS and BEYOND and HIGHLY RECOMMEND him.

    Rita B.

    BERNIE’S MOM

  • Eric is the best dog walker I've ever had! I would give Eric 100+ stars !!! He is the best!! He is always there for Presley & takes excellent care of Him, and is always willing to go the extra mile. He is the nicest person too! Presley loves Eric and always gets so excited when he sees him. I would highly recommend Eric to anyone looking for a dog walker. I am grateful for Eric everyday!!!

    Stacey F.

    Presley's Mom

  • 5 stars and then some! Eric is top tier when it comes to service. Not only has our little nuggets behavior gotten better but she also is tired throughout the week. Eric does a great job with behavior corrections and knows what he is doing training wise. I’m grateful we found someone we can trust and feel comfortable with. Plus our Charlie girl loves him! Thanks for all that you do Eric!

    Steven M.

    Charlie's Dad

  • Eric is seriously the best dog walker out there!!! My dog knows that Tuesdays and Thursdays are her pack walk days. She starts to get excited in the afternoon and waits by the door because she knows her pack is coming for her. It’s seriously the highlight of her week. Eric is patient, timely, and communicative. Highly recommend him if you’re looking for a dog walker in the LA area!

    Daniela B.

    Lala's Mom

  • Eric is the absolute best. I’ve lived in 9 cities with my 12 year old dog and have hired multiple dog walkers. Eric is without question the best one we’ve found. He’s been taking my dog out on walks for almost a year. I’m so glad I found him. My dog is always ecstatic when Eric shows up. He never reacted to the doorbell before, now he bolts to the door all wiggly and happy. Eric is super responsive, reliable and always goes above and beyond.

    Katy R.

    ENZO’S MOM

  • Eric is incredible! My dog, Summit, absolutely loves him and can’t wait for his afternoon walks with Eric and his pack. Eric is kind, caring and attentive to all his dogs. I love that he keeps his groups relatively small to ensure all of his dogs are safe. I know I can rely on Eric. My family and I have been using Eric for over 2 years now and will continue to use him for years to come! We are SO happy we found him.

    Madeline A.

    Summit's Mom

  • Once VERY attached to her equally high-spirited and active hu-sister! Never thought we'd find a match for her! ERIC has been a learned canine life saver, trainer, behavioralist, discipliner, and the sharpest "point" to her day. Runs to door before he arrives. Exceptional care on every level!

    Polly B.

    Kiki's Mom

  • Eric is the most trustworthy, thoughtful, reliable, and flexible dog walker you could ask for! My pup Leo grew to LOVE Eric and his pack of dogs. Many times I wasn't home when he had to do pick up or drop off, and I 100% trusted Eric with a key to my home. Finding a dog walker in a city as large as LA can be overwhelming. Look no further -- Eric is the best and I keep telling all my dog owning friends about his service! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    Lizzie N.

    LEO's mom

  • We are so lucky to have found Eric! Eric is hands-down the best pet care professional we’ve ever hired. From day one, he’s treated our pup like family, showing up with energy, enthusiasm, and a genuine love for animals that you can feel. Our dog is literally obsessed with Eric, he waits by the door every day, tail wagging. It’s the highlight of his day. Eric always keeps their safety and joy at the forefront.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before getting started. Still have questions? Give us a call.

Are the dogs really off-leash on the trail?

Yes, where the terrain and the dog allow it. We assess recall before any dog goes off-leash, and we keep dogs leashed in any spot where another hiker or on-leash dog might be uncomfortable. Recall etiquette is part of how we train the pack.

How big is the pack?

Small. Sized to temperament and the day, not a fixed number. The point isn't headcount, it's composition

What if my dog has never hiked before?

Most of our intake hasn't. We start in a smaller, lower-energy pack on shorter routes, build confidence, then graduate them into the regular rotation.Most of our intake hasn't. We start in a smaller, lower-energy pack on shorter routes, build confidence, then graduate them into the regular rotation.

Which trails do you run?

Will Rogers, Sullivan Canyon, Mandeville, Topanga, the Backbone Trail, sections of the Santa Monicas most walkers don't bother with. We share the trail in your daily update.

What if my dog has reactivity or pack anxiety?

Tell us at the meet-and-greet. We work with both, slowly. Some dogs need three months of small-pack work before joining the full pack, and that's fine. Some dogs aren't pack dogs, and we'll tell you that too.
