I have been a professional dog trainer in NYC for 15 years. As a child, I participated in dog agility and showmanship through 4-H and won several local and state competitions. I began my path to become a trainer by receiving a certification from the vocational school, Animal Behavioral College. When I began to hit a wall in my self-education four years ago, I enrolled in CUNY's Psychology program, and will be graduating May, 2025 with honors with an interdisciplinary BA in Animal Psychology and Creative Writing. I am currently volunteering as a Research Assistant for the Center for Canine Behavioral Studies, as well as assisting in a lab at Hunter studying Pandas. I am also a PPG member.

I have been a dog walker, sitter and have boarded dogs for over four years. I have taken care of senior dogs, large breed dogs, puppies and adolescents. I volunteered at an animal shelter where I took many dog handling workshops and am Fear Free certified and first aid CPR certified. I use a positive reinforcement, partnership based, compassionate tuning in approach when walking or otherwise interacting with dogs. I strive to meet the physical and emotional needs of animals through sufficient attention, affection, exercise, and exposure to nature.

Hi, I'm Francisco, owner of East Bay Pack Walks. My passion for dogs comes from hands-on experience with rescue dogs, including my own foster-to-adopt dog, Daisy. When I first met her, she struggled with severe separation anxiety and was considered not dog-friendly. Through training, structure, and patience, she grew into a happy, confident dog who now lives peacefully with another rescued dog. I provide structured pack walks, private walks, and transportation services throughout the East Bay. My focus is safety, reliability, and making every walk a positive experience for both dogs and their owners.
