Welcome to Puppy Love™ Southern California

From the mountains to the beaches, Santa Barbara to San Diego, Santa Monica to San Bernardino, Puppy Love™ Southern California has you covered!

Loving what her friend and colleague Sabrina had created with Puppy Love in the Bay Area, long-time entrepreneur Jennifer Gerich recognized an amazing opportunity with Puppy Love in the Southern California market — and she was not wrong! Recognizing how companies are seeking unique ways to show appreciation for their employees, support their mental health and fostering community in the workplace, Jennifer jumped on the chance to license and open Puppy Love LA. And it was off to the races!

Jennifer, Owner, Puppy Love LA

Jennifer is renowned for her innate sales skills rooted in honesty, compassion, humor and overall people smarts.

An entrepreneurial risk-taker, Jennifer started Campos Creative Works, 30 years ago with her two partners, which went on to become a world-renowned leader in creative, strategic event and digital experiences for clients like Facebook, Dell, Softbank and VW.

With her oldest son graduated from college and on his own and her youngest finishing school, Jennifer was feeling the call to do something more community based; something that would give back. After experiencing Puppy Love events in the Bay Area and seeing the joyful benefits for corporate employees – as well as how they helped support puppy rescues from both a financial and awareness standpoint, Jen was sold. The perfect blend of her sales/event skills combined with her love of animals and passion for giving back, launching Puppy Love LA was her perfect next chapter.

For the past three years, Jennifer has continued to successfully build awareness of the Puppy Love brand all throughout southern California – up and down the coast as well as the Inland Empire and Palm Springs area. Her accountability, attention to detail and aesthetics in all of her events continues to build her client base with companies like SpaceX, the LA Clippers, Deloitte, Kaiser and Mercedes, to name just a few. 

As her clientele expands, Jennifer’s biggest joy lies in the fact that she’s helping to support her rescue partners in the amazing work they do saving and re-homing puppies, dogs (and even kittens!) throughout the So. Cal area.

Meet Doug

When Jennifer's two boys were little, they were inexplicably scared of dogs - even puppies!

Then, at age 13, her youngest happily surprised her by asking for a puppy for his birthday. And just like that, Doug came into their lives! Rescued at 3 months, Jennifer and her family fell immediately in love with this crazy cute creature. After meeting up with one of Doug's siblings, who had his DNA done, they found out that Doug was a mix of Lab, Golden, Husky and German Shorthair Pointer. In other words he's a BIG boy (110 lbs).

He's the happiest, sweetest guy on earth and has no idea how big he is. He's happy to sit in your beach chair or hop on your lap wherever you choose to sit. Jennifer named Puppy Love LA's parent company after him: Douglas Enterprises, LLC, where he remains CEO to this day.

"Thank goodness that Puppy Love exists. The team had the BEST time with the 10 puppies that came to our event. One of our engineers even adopted one of the cute little fur balls. It was absolutely a successful event, and I can’t wait until we can host another!"

Rita, Brickman

"Puppy Love is my first RETURN TO OFFICE event for my tenants! I’ve had them come to my buildings before and this is by far, the most popular type of event without alcohol hehe "

Tera, DPS Rescue

"Sabrina’s passion, commitment and creativity are evident in all aspects of her Puppy Love events. Partnering with Puppy Love has helped to raise our visibility via their well-attended corporate events. Not only are these events really fun to participate in, but they have also helped to increase donations to our organization as well as to help find forever homes for our adoptable puppies and dogs."

Jennifer, MOFO

"It was the best day ever! We received overwhelming positive feedback we have had them back every year for the last 3 years and can’t wait to have Sabrina and the puppies back again this year!"

David, Amazon

"Sabrina is the most professional and PASSIONATE business owner I have ever worked with. She is constantly trying to give her clients a first class experience filled with love and tenderness. I have never seen a company that provides such a positive FEEL GOOD EXPERIENCE like Sabrina’s Puppy Love does. Who would think a bunch of adults hanging out and playing with adorable puppies would be such a hit!! Sabrina did… CONGRATULATIONS on a wonderful business you have. Wishing you much success in the year to come."

Kathleen, Google

"The Puppy Love Team was around for 2 hours and the employee traffic never seemed to die down. Immediately after, employees came up to me asking “When are they coming back?!?!?” The pictures of employees with the pups cannot event capture the true joy and excitement everyone experienced."

Blake, Samsung

"To the Puppy Love Team, thank you for an incredible day and experience. We truly enjoyed having you and can’t wait for your next visit. Everything you did, from the setup to sharing stories with our employees, was well done and much appreciated "

Bryan, Gilead

"Sabrina and her entire team were great! We had a corporate event and Sabrina organized puppies and canine companions to be at our conference over a 3-day period. All attendees were in love with this idea and it really made the entire conference extra special. Attendees could not stop talking about the experience and I was so grateful that Sabrina took care of everything and was so organized. All we had to do was show her where the puppy area was, and her team took care of everything. Extremely organized and I would recommend this to anyone and everyone who wants a unique experience at their next event. Thank you, Sabrina and team, for being awesome! "

Marlanne, Baine & Company

"What a perfect way to bring our colleagues back to the office… with a Puppy Love Party! Everyone who attended walked away with huge smiles on their faces and their hearts full… begging for more “Puppy Fridays”. Sabrina and her team were so wonderful to work with and helped make the experience a memorable one. We can’t wait to bring them back and have many more puppy parties in the future! "

Cory, MPINC

"Sabrina! Think we were the hit and talk of the show! Truly appreciate your professionalism, expertise and just being awesome! A big fan or you and the power of puppies for sure! Great news as well is that it looks like a few of the puppies will be adopted! Thank you again and already thinking of ways to use your services again! "

Lena, Pulse

"I hired Puppy Love for an event in our office in San Francisco. We had been hosting some creative happy hours of sorts and someone had the great idea of a puppy play date! Thank goodness that Puppy Love exists. The team had the BEST time with the 10 puppies that came to our event. One of our engineers even adopted one of the cute little fur balls. It was absolutely a successful event, and I can’t wait until we can host another!"

Google, Business Admin Partner

"I recently had the pleasure of attending a corporate wellness event for Google where they hosted Puppy Love, who provided an amazing puppy experience. I’m an avid animal lover and was thrilled to see an employee engagement that not only focused on employee wellness but also gave back to the community in such a meaningful way. The Puppy Love event was fantastic. We were able to interact with adoptable dogs, and the event organizers provided information on the featured rescue who provided the pups. It was heartwarming to see everyone come together to support such an important cause – not to mention have a blast! I was impressed with how well-organized the event was - and the attention to detail. The pups were well-cared for, and the Puppy Love team was great. This was an excellent example of how a company can help make a positive impact on the community while also promoting employee wellness/happiness. I hope to see more events like this in the future, and I applaud Google for their commitment to giving back and supporting their employees in this way."

Geodis, Events Manager

"I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the fantastic work you did at Manifest. Your puppy booth was a real hit and brought a lot of attention to our company. The fact that you worked so hard to make it happen did not go unnoticed, and we appreciate your efforts more than words can say. In particular, we wanted to thank you for bringing in so many great leads for us. Your presence and the excitement it generated were instrumental in helping us connect with potential customers and partners. We believe that these connections will lead to great things for our business, and we owe a lot of that to you."

Warriors, Sponsorships

"We can't express enough gratitude for the amazing event we hosted with Puppy Love and the rescue puppies. It was heartwarming to see our fans and players come together to support such a great cause. The puppies brought so much joy and laughter to everyone, and it was an unforgettable experience to see 25 of them find their forever homes. We feel privileged to have been a part of this event, and we look forward to continuing to support Puppy Love and their mission to help provide people with joy and help the rescue care for animals in need.

Questions?

Even the most conscientious workplace can be stress-filled. We believe cuddling and playing with puppies is an ideal way to restore the balance. In fact, scientific studies have shown positive therapeutic effects from animal interaction – including decreasing blood pressure and reduced levels of cortisol.

Puppy Love™ founder Sabrina Freed combined her two key passions: creating outstanding events and animal advocacy. A pioneer in the field of high-profile conferences Sabrina realized firsthand how employees would benefit from puppies in the workplace, and likewise, how employers would see results in worker efficiency, and wellness. A wonderful give-back, Puppy Love also donates 20% of all proceeds back into the local rescue community.

Puppy Love was started in San Francisco and serves all areas of northern and southern California. We also partner with rescues nationwide to provide Puppy Love experiences across the U.S.

Yes. Each location carries liability insurance of $2M to ensure our attendees and puppies are well covered.

All pups come from our vetted, fully trusted rescue partners who ensure pups are happy and well cared for. 20% of all Puppy Love proceeds are donated back to our rescue partners to help cover their food and medical costs.
