DOG WALKING IN WESTWOOD
A More Active Routine for Westwood Dogs

Social Pups offers structured group dog walking and pack adventures for friendly, social dogs throughout Westwood. With pickup and drop-off available around Westwood Village, UCLA, Westwood Hills, the Wilshire Corridor, and nearby Holmby Hills, dogs get much more than the same neighborhood walk each day.
Outings range from local pack walks around UCLA and Holmby Hills to canyon hikes, beach days, and special field trips across Los Angeles. Every outing is personally led by the same experienced pack leader, giving dogs consistent exercise, healthy social time, and a routine they can look forward to each week.

Love From Our Westwood Dog Parents
Real experiences from Social Pups clients throughout the communities we serve.
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.

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!

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.
