1. Rachel & Benjamin K.
“Rachel & Benjamin are THE BEST. We left our pup with them for 5 days and when we came home, he didn't want to leave their side. They are incredibly communicative and will treat your dog just like their own. Not to mention that their own dog, Bernie, is friendly, playful, and loves other pups. Seriously so blown away by the experience- I trust them completely! Can't wait for Archie to stay with them again :)”

8. 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.”

10. Liubov M.
“Liubov is great with taking care of my dog, who is pretty anxious in new spaces with new people. She does a wonderful job of making my dog feel calm and comfortable. Liubov also sends me regular updates of photos and videos of my dog and is so communicative of how my dog is doing overall. Anyone would be lucky to have her as a sitter for their pet!”
11. Kevin & Gina J.
“Gina and Kevin exceeded all expectations as dog sitters! I can't praise them highly enough. Despite our last-minute request, they were incredibly accommodating and ensured both parties were well-informed for the arrangement. It was our first time entrusting Clementine to anyone overnight, and initially, we were apprehensive about leaving her with strangers. However, Gina's regular updates with photos and descriptions of their activities put us at ease. It was evident that Clem had a fantastic time in their care, enjoying numerous walks, play sessions, and plenty of cuddles. We wouldn't hesitate to book with this wonderful couple again in the future. We're immensely grateful for the love and attention they showed Clementine during these past few days! 🐾”

13. Kevin & Kayla K.
“Kevin and Kayla took such good care of my pup for a long weekend! They were easy to book, easy to communicate with, and were so thoughtful about sending pics and asking questions to make sure he had the best care! I could tell Lucas felt right at home with them - I would definitely book them again!”
14. Alicia L.
“Alicia was a fantastic dog sitter. She sent us great photos and it was clear when we got back how comfortable and happy our dog had been while we were gone. We have a fit bark that tracks our dogs activity and we could see how much attention and great walks she was getting while we were gone. Alicia also went above and beyond and washed our food bowl and sent it back cleaner than it arrived.”
15. Jaden L.
“My pup, Lizzy, is always excited when she sees Jaden because she knows she’s going to have a fun weekend! Jaden gives beautiful photo and video updates whenever Lizzy stays with him All the dogs look like they’re having a great time - like a dream slumber party for dogs. His apartment is very clean with lots of nap spots for the dogs, great updates (which help when I’m missing my pup), and he lives right next to a fully enclosed park where he takes all the dogs several times throughout the day for sun and exercise.”

Would 100% recommend these two!”

What makes San Francisco a great city for dog owners?
Whether you call it SF, The City by the Bay, or just San Francisco, there's something about this city that dog owners love to call home. With all of the amazing parks and ocean views, it's no wonder so many pet parents enjoy living here, and there are plenty of loving Rover dog sitters in the city who'd love to spend some time with their pups. When visitors are in town, San Francisco dog owners love showing off landmarks like Alcatraz and Lombard Street or popping down to Pier 39 for some trendy eats.
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.
Which neighborhoods in San Francisco are good for dog owners?
Alamo Square features Victorian architecture, including the iconic painted ladies homes seen in many depictions of the city. Balboa Park, sometimes referred to as Mission Terrace, Cayuga, or Ingleside, includes the soccer-specific Boxer Stadium. In Eureka Valley, there's The Castro, where you'll find rich cultural history in Harvey Milk Plaza, and slightly up the hill, the Pink Triangle Park on 17th Street at Market.
