Ruff N' Tuff Dog Walking

Welcome pet parents! My name is Analisa Six, and I am a certified dog walker and trainer. Since 2015, I've been providing professional and reliable services that pet owners can count on. I started Ruff N' Tuff Dogs in Oakland, CA after completing the Dog Walking Academy of San Francisco. Since then, I have worked hard to continue my education and offer a variety of services that my clients can count on.

I specialize in Positive Reinforcement and Force-Free training, and I keep myself up to date on the latest science when it comes to caring for dogs, as well as understanding them. It is my life mission to help humans treat animals more humanely, ethically, and to help you build a happy and successful relationship with your dog.

I obtained my dog training certification from the Dog Training Internship Academy of San Francisco and am a member of the Pet Professional Guild and the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants. I've dedicated my life to ensuring every animal is safe & happy in every situation - providing real solutions to the most common problems pet owners face. Still, I'm always learning about new care techniques and pride myself on improving my skill set so that I stay up to date on the most current science within the animal behavior field.

I currently offer my dog walking services to dogs of Hollywood, CA. Dog training services I offer in above locations and beyond, depending on whether you are able to pay a travel fee. Virtual sessions are also available for dog training.

About Our Services

At Ruff N' Tuff Dog Walking, we understand that every dog is unique and requires personalized care and attention. That's why we offer a variety of services tailored to meet the specific needs of your furry friend.

Exercise: Responsible & Reliable Walks! Hikes! Play Dates!

Our Exercise service allows you to make sure your pet is well taken care of, even when you're not around. We offer this for all sizes and breeds. Reserve our time and relax knowing your pet is in the best possible hands. All walks are documented and timed with GPS tracking. You also receive photos of your dog after each play date or walk and a detailed potty report.

Personalized Care: The Best for Your Pet

Not all dogs are created equal. What inspired me to become a dog walker was to help dogs who may need a more personalized walk or experience due to their specific needs. I don't think all dogs are meant to have a one-size-fits-all experience. I cater my walks and play dates to fit the needs of the individual dog as well as dogs in a play or social setting if on a group walk. You will always receive a detailed report after each hike, walk, or play date.

Socialization: Making New Friends

Not all dogs are created social! I can help you determine whether your dog is a social dog, or a dog who prefers to stay in a personalized setting. I can also help to coordinate appropriate play dates and meetings with other dogs who fit your dog's temperament and needs.

Friendship: A Special Bond

I build a strong relationship with every dog I work with. I love to learn each individual dog's personality and what makes them unique and who they are. I also love to know how your relationship with your pet enables them to have a happy life. Together, I hope we can create a fun break in the day for your furry child. We are so blessed to share this life with dogs.

Canine Enrichment: Think Outside the Box!

Depending on your dog's preference and needs, I offer canine enrichment activities. This is especially helpful if it is too hot to be outside during the day. I also help coach you on what you can do to help your dog get more out of their day if playing outside is not an option due to weather restrictions.

Coaching: Canine Support

All of my clients know that I am always available to coach on any needs outside of my regular services. This includes:

• Enrichment and Training tips
• Book recommendations
• Nutrition tips
• Senior dog support
• End of life support
• Basic First Aid
• Equipment tips
• Travel tips and more.
