If You Know, You Know.
“There are very few people I trust with my dog — and even fewer I trust more than my assistant. Rustic Canyon Dogs is that rare exception. My pup comes back happier, calmer, and somehow cooler. I won’t say who I am, but if you know, you know.”
– A grateful client who values their privacy
Private Yard Playgroups
We call them Play Dates, but to your dog, it’s the best part of their day—and maybe their life. At Rustic Canyon Dogs, we bring the fun directly to your home, creating safe, supervised social events where dogs can run, play, and bond with their best friends in beautiful, private yards. These daily gatherings are more than just exercise—they're curated social experiences that keep your dog happy, balanced, and socially fulfilled.
One of our clients put it best: “Move over Disneyland—Rustic Canyon Dogs is now the happiest place on earth.” We think Mickey would agree.
Dog Walking
At Rustic Canyon Dogs, we understand that our clients have unique schedules and high expectations—and so do their dogs. That’s why we’ve built a team of experienced, reliable dog walkers who not only love dogs but also understand the importance of discretion, flexibility, and top-tier care. Our walkers are hand-picked for their professionalism, training, and ability to build lasting bonds with both our clients and their pets. Whether it’s a quick walk between shoots or daily exercise for high-energy pups, we make sure every walk is safe, personalized, and enriching.
Dog Grooming
Whether your dog needs a full groom, a simple bath and tidy, or a red carpet–ready makeover, our grooming team provides gentle, expert care in a calm, stress-free environment. We understand the demands of the entertainment industry and work around your schedule to ensure your pet always looks camera-ready—or just cuddle-ready. Our groomers are not only highly trained, but truly love what they do, and it shows in every happy tail wag.
Dog Boarding & Pet Sitting
Whether you're on set, traveling for a shoot, or simply need peace of mind, we offer private home boarding and in-home pet sitting with seasoned caregivers who treat your pets like family. Our long list of happy dogs—and even happier clients—speaks to the loving, attentive care we provide every day..

"With Steve and Rustic Canyon Dogs, I never have to worry about my animals or my home. My pets are not only safe and loved, they’re living their best social lives. The private yard playgroups are truly next-level. It’s like a private dog club, and my pups are obsessed.
Knowing my animals are in such caring, capable hands lets me focus fully on work — and that peace of mind is priceless.
If you’re in the industry (or just insanely picky about your pets, like I am), Rustic Canyon Dogs is it!"
