Body Guard & Paws

Body Guard & Paws provides ground animal transport in Los Angeles, California, serving the broader Southern California region including nearby Long Beach. Led by Joseph Martinez, the team moves dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs, giving them a range that spans household pets to full-size livestock in a single operation.

The company holds an active USDA APHIS Class T registration as a registered animal carrier, active through September 2026.

That breadth of species makes Body Guard & Paws a practical option for varied hauling needs, whether it's a family relocating with a dog and cat, a breeder moving goats or sheep between properties, or a rancher coordinating cattle transport across the region. Ground transport for horses and pigs rounds out their capabilities, making them a fit for equestrian owners and small farm operators alike who need dependable movement of animals across Southern California without switching providers for different species.
