Peacocks on the roof. Coyotes at dusk. Dogs in the yard.
Rancho Palos Verdes has a peafowl census, a coyote dashboard, and a rattlesnake safety page. We have a scooper and a gate latch. We'll take the part of the wildlife situation that's in your backyard.
Wildlife management, backyard division.
RPV runs from the Point Vicente bluffs to the canyons of Miraleste, and the yards are as varied as the views: terraced slopes, ivy banks, horse lots in Portuguese Bend, and tidy tracts up on the ridge.
A dog who shares a city with a 1,500-acre nature preserve develops opinions about where to go. We find all of them.
We count dogs, not peacocks. The city has the peacocks covered.
- Terraces and ivyMany RPV yards are stepped into the hillside. Terraced and planted ground is priced in up front, so you won't get a surprise.
- EDCO's gray cartEDCO lists pet waste as a gray-cart item. We double-bag it and set it there.
- Coyotes and closed gatesThe city's approach is coexistence and hazing, which starts with secure yards. We latch every gate and text you a photo.
- Canyon edgesOn lots that back onto open space, we look before we reach, especially in warm months.

Hi neighbor,
We're a small, owner-run crew. When we text you, it's one of the owners on the other end, and for now we're also the ones in your yard each week.
We keep routes tight on purpose, a few streets at a time, so we can show up on the same day and in the same window every week. If we ever miss something, tell us and we'll make it right.

Co-owner

Things people usually ask
Do you service Portuguese Bend?
Yes, including the gated horse community. Add us to your gate list and put any gate code in your booking.
Do you take my dog to the dog park after?
We stay in your yard. For your dog's social life, Rancho Caninos at Point Vicente Park and Eastview Dog Park on Westmont Drive are both in town.
Is it worth it?
Weekly service for one dog is about $126 a month, or $29 a visit. That's about five grande lattes, or a little more than two Chipotle burritos. You get back your weekend chore, a yard you can walk barefoot, and a photo proving the gate is shut. Some services cost less per visit. We price for the same day every week, the photo every time, and the owners doing the work.
Do I need to be home?
No. We just need access to the yard. Leave the gate unlocked on your service day or put a gate code in your booking notes.
How does billing work?
Recurring plans put a card on file with Stripe to hold your spot. Nothing is charged until after your first visit, and then we bill monthly for the visits you've had. One-time cleanups take a 50% deposit, and the rest is due after the job. Deposits are fully refundable up to 48 hours before your visit. No contract, so you can cancel anytime.
How do I cancel?
Reply to any of our texts. No contract and no cancellation fee. You only pay for visits we've already done.
