“Energetic & fun! Can’t wait to walk your pups!”
Hi there! My name is Molly. I have worked with dogs for over 20 years now, got my first dog at age 7, and I have 2 Pomeranians & a pitbulI. I have worked in animal shelters for years before, and most recently managed a dog boutique/grooming salon in West Hollywood. I have experience with taking dogs on long walks multiple times a day, feeding them, and taking them out for play time, etc. I’ve worked with injured pets, puppies, older dogs, administering medications, and some training as well!

My name is Tony I have a blue nose pit bull that’s 4 years old. I’ve had a few dogs growing up some where my moms some where my grandmas but I’ve been around dogs since I was a baby. I know all the things you need to know about what dogs can and can’t eat and signs that dogs give to express how they are feeling and what calms them when they are scared or have anxiety. So I have a strong care for dogs and like being around them.

Hi! My name is Nicholas and I've had a teacup chihuahua for 13 years now. I watch my neighbors dogs whenever they are out of town. Which required me to feed, walk, and play with the dog. I always make sure to follow all instructions asked and do everything on time.

“Everything I own is covered in dog hair.”
I've always been the one who everyone calls for anything dog related. I've volunteered at shelters, have worked for a pet behaviorist's radio show, grew up with dogs, and currently have two awesome low-rider pit mix rescue pups of my own. I know how much our dogs can affect every aspect of our lives, and I'd like to help alleviate your stress by making sure your buddies are well cared for while you're out. Let me know if your pups would like to go walking with me soon. I can't wait to meet them!

My name is Miguel and I love all dogs. They all come with great spirit, can be funny and are very loyal. I have experience walking and training all breeds, sizes and ages. Going for walks is my favorite pastime, (just like dogs) and that's why we get along so well!

Hi, my name is Jackson and I came to Los Angeles about 3 years ago to pursue acting. I grew up with dogs and they have always been an important part of my life. As I do not have a dog of my own, I have stayed involved with dogs by walking and sitting them, as well as volunteering at shelters when I can. I figure that my love for dogs along with exercising and getting outside in the beautiful LA weather is a great match for me and your dog! Often times I will have an audition or two that take up an hour of my day, but for the remainder, I want to spend it outside, and I feel it is a great use of my time to spend it with some lovable pups. I also don't have a dog of my own but have an apartment that can house them if that is needed.

Dog Walking in Downey
The city of Downey treats canines as kings. It’s one of the many reasons that over one hundred thousand residents call the city home. Six animal hospitals and vet clinics mean your pup can receive attention at the drop of a hat, and there’s nothing that can beat that peace of mind. Explore Downey fearlessly, knowing that help is never out of your reach.
Dog friendly dining is also never out of your reach in Downey. Start your visit with a trip to Bastards American Canteen, where aside from salty language, they serve amazing craft beers on tap with some of the most popular pub food around. Plus, two patios means your dog is always welcome to join you!
There’s more to do than snack in Downey, however. Dogs and their owners love to take a spin on the San Gabriel Trail. This trail is dozens of miles long and runs through several nearby communities, but there’s a parking area and access point in Downey. Jump on the trail to go as far as you like before turning back!
If you’ve done your hike, take your own lazy (or active) dog to the Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar, where American classics are made daily. Your dog can join you on the patio--and on all your Downey adventures!

It’s geared towards sports play, offering fields for baseball, and courts for tennis. It’s a great, convenient place to walk your dog. There’s usually something going on, so social dogs will get to see lots of people and maybe watch humans chase balls--his favorite! You can walk the perimeter of the park easily, and the bright lights keep this park open until 9pm even in the winter. It’s a great resource if you don’t always have time to walk your dog during the day.

Dogs love to sniff and explore, and you can take a leisurely stroll while their senses get a full work out! There are also paths throughout the park, though they’re not long and most walkers will be able to go through them a couple times.
