Why I Left Tech to Start a Luxury Pet Care Company in West Los Angeles

Building BWB: From Corporate Career to LA's Premier Dog Walking Service

The truth about starting Betches Walking Betches? It was terrifying. I had a stable career in tech. A predictable paycheck. A clear path forward. And I gave it all up to walk dogs in West Los Angeles. People didn't understand. Some thought it was a quarter-life crisis. Others assumed it was temporary until I "figured things out." But I had figured things out. I realized I couldn't keep working in an industry that didn't align with my values when I knew exactly what I wanted to build: a luxury pet care service that West LA was missing.

Why West LA Needed a Different Kind of Pet Care

I wanted to create a dog walking and pet sitting company where emotional intelligence mattered as much as logistics. Where we didn't just show up and go through the motions, but actually paid attention to each dog's unique personality and needs.

I wanted a team that loved animals so much they'd notice if something seemed off. Who would text a client with updates not because it's required, but because they genuinely want to share a sweet moment.

From Santa Monica to Palisades, from Brentwood to Venice, devoted pet parents deserve better than generic pet care apps. They deserve a service that understands their lifestyle.

Building LA's Premier Pet Care Service

That vision became BWB. A rebrand that reflects our evolution while staying true to our core: holistic care, genuine relationships, and treating every pet like family.

We serve some of the most devoted dog parents in Los Angeles. People who work long hours in entertainment, tech, real estate, and wellness but refuse to compromise on their pet's wellbeing. People who need reliability without sacrificing the personal touch.

Whether you're in Malibu rushing between meetings or in Beverly Hills managing a packed schedule, your dog's routine shouldn't suffer. That's where we come in.

What Makes BWB Different

Starting this company taught me that the scariest decisions often lead to the most meaningful work. We're not just another dog walking service in Los Angeles. We're a family. Our certified team of 10+ caregivers serves over 150 families across West LA, providing:

• Personalized dog walking in Santa Monica, Palisades, Brentwood, and Venice

• Overnight pet sitting with the same caregiver your dog knows and loves

• Real-time updates that give you peace of mind wherever you are

• Discretion and professionalism that matches your lifestyle

Every single day, I'm reminded why I made the leap. Because luxury pet care isn't just about convenience. It's about knowing your dog is genuinely loved, even when you can't be there.
