2. Gabrielle & Patrick C.
“Gabrielle and paddy were amazing with Frida and kitty. Frida is slightly obsessed with Paddy and considering she’s shy and nervous this was huge feat. They took such lovely care of our girls and we will definitely be having them pet sit again and again in the future.”

“Jaden was a fantastic sitter for our cocker spaniel, Hudson!

We can’t wait to leave Hudson with Jaden again sometime soon!”

“We love having Oreo stay with Brandon when we’re out of town! Oreo always seems very relaxed, and has a great time getting snuggles and belly rubs during her visits.

10. Rajni B.
“We decided to give Rover a try for the first time after having a bunch of negative experiences boarding in San Francisco. Rajni was absolutely amazing in every way. She took such great care of my dog and also made sure to ask multiple questions to make sure that she kept his schedule as close to normal as possible. She took him in so many wonderful walks and also captured incredible pictures to send to me daily. Even on the days that I was busy and wasn’t able to ask many questions about my dog, she still texted me and gave me updates, which I appreciated so much. She’s definitely going to be my go to every single time I’m out of town!”
11. Judy C.
“I couldn’t think of a more amazing dog sitter than Judy! We were so fortunate to be referred to her by a friend in the city and that she was available for a full week. She watched our large labradoodle and treated her as if she was her own dog giving her so much love. We got so many photos and check-ins to let us know our girl was doing good. She even went above and beyond when our girl had an upset stomach and made her multiple homemade meals. Judy will be our go-to anytime we’re out of town! We can’t thank her enough.”
12. Liubov M.
“Hudson loves staying with Liubov and Adam! The pictures we get of his time with them are great. Liubov goes above and beyond to make sure Hudson is comfortable.”
13. Alyssa T.
“Alyssa was AMAZING!! She is so sweet, communicative and attentive. She asked great, thoughtful questions before I even dropped Jude off to make sure he’d be comfortable. During the stay she took such great care of him and sent so many sweet updates throughout.”
14. Derek & Solip "Stella" T.
“Derek and Stella were wonderful hosts for Bernie. They send plenty of photos and texts letting me know how Bernie was doing. And when I picked up Bernie, he was very comfortable and happy. We highly recommend Derek and Stella and will definitely ask them to dog-sit during our future travels.”
15. St. John B.
“John and Scoop took great care of my dog, Murphy! I received pictures of Murphy and Scoop on their walks - they even ventured out to the Presidio! Drop off and pick up were seamless and I appreciated that he met up with us before the visit to make sure everyone got along well. I would not hesitate to ask John to watch Murphy again!”
16. Timothy C.
“Timothy was AMAZING with our two dogs! He took them for multiple walks each day, on picnics at the park, and cared for them so well! One of our dogs had an issue with a toenail, and he promptly alerted us, offered to care for them and/or take him to the vet, and monitored and updated us to let us know when he was healed. He sent tons of photos and videos so we felt so comfortable while we were gone. We knew our dogs were in good hands! I would definitely go to him again!”
17. Yijie W.
“Yijie treated my two little pets with immense love and care. Loki and daisy were fed walked and given lots of cuddles and attention. I was able to receive many updates and yijie was extremely flexible with providing pick up and drop off for them! I am extremely thankful for her reliability and help with an almost two week stay for my babies. Thank you yijie!”
18. Remo C.
“Remo is terrific. Our dog Benny was happy and tired from all the excercise and socialization! Remo is very concerned, considerate and enthusiastic. He is the best dogsitter we've ever had.”

Which San Francisco parks should I visit with my dog?
Looking for a place to blow off some steam with your pup? San Francisco has some truly incredible dog parks. Bernal Heights Dog Park is a scenic 35-acre, off-leash dog park that provides amazing panoramic views of the city. Fort Funston Dog Park is a fun place to visit, but keep in mind it's also frequented by horseback riders, gliders, and bicyclists. This next park is notable for being a resting place for hundreds of species of migrating birds, which is reason enough to visit! It's Pine Lake Dog Park, and it's also full of great hiking trails and a dedicated off-leash section of the park for your dog. Located in the Diamond Heights neighborhood, Glen Canyon Dog Park is 35 acres of beautiful wooded trails and canyons. For the ultimate in dog-friendly recreation, be sure to check out Duboce Dog Park. Dog walkers love this park, and there's even an annual DogFest held there to celebrate man's best friend.
