Dog-friendly Encino
The Sepulveda Basin Off-Leash Dog Park is one of the best-known places in the Valley for dogs to run and socialize, and it’s a short trip from most of Encino. Ventura Boulevard also has plenty of dog-friendly patios and cafes. Even in the Basin, dogs need to follow the park’s posted rules, so check them before you visit.

Adoption Event Manager
I got my first dog, Bruno, at age 7, but it took nearly 50 years to fully appreciate the unconditional love and compassion dogs offer. Now, my life is devoted to them. I love to be with the dogs and connect with people to find the right match!
Certified Petco Positive Dog Trainer
I like working at Petco because of their Positive Dog Training curriculum, which focuses on rewarding dogs for good behavior. I enjoy helping pet parents teach their dogs basic obedience, light behavior modification, and good house manners.
