Meet Jeremiah Acerra

At Westside Walks, dog care is more than just a job — it’s a lifelong passion.

My name is Jeremiah Acerra, and I’ve spent over 30 years working with dogs of every breed, size, personality, and energy level imaginable. From playful puppies and high-energy working breeds to anxious rescues and senior companions needing extra patience and care, I understand that every dog is unique — and deserves to be treated that way.

Building trust with animals has always come naturally to me. Dogs respond to calm energy, consistency, leadership, and genuine love, and I pride myself on creating a safe, positive experience for every pup in my care. Whether it’s a structured walk, a beachside stroll, an adventure hike, or simply providing companionship while you’re away, your dog’s wellbeing always comes first.

Based in Santa Monica and serving the Westside, I created Westside Walks to offer a more personal, dependable, and elevated approach to dog walking and pet care. My goal is simple: to give dogs the attention, exercise, structure, and affection they need while giving owners complete peace of mind.

When your dog walks with me, they’re not just another appointment on a schedule — they become part of the Westside Walks family.

Reliable. Attentive. Experienced. Compassionate.

Because your dog deserves the best.
