Dog Walking Glen Park

About: I have had a life long love of animals and have grown up with cats and dogs. In addition I am a long standing volunteer at the SFSPCA, and am trained in dog and cat care. If your pet is shy or out going I know exactly how to work with them. I am a college student with a fairly flexible schedule. As junior my course load is predictable therefor I can work with you to find a convenient care schedule. I am available to walk dogs or care for cats at your home. I have a car and can reliably get to you. When we first meet I would love to spend a little time with your pet and learn your routine in order to make them as comfortable as possible. If you are traveling for an extended period I will gladly send you pictures and keep you posted on what is going on.

“Highly recommend! Joyce was wonderful, reliable, kind, and great with our pets. She took our dog on long, 1-hour walks while my husband and I were working, and she also has experience with cats, helping administer eye drop medication for us. We really appreciated all her help.”

About: Lifelong dog owner with over 25 years of pet-sitting experience and 400+ volunteer hours at animal shelters. Reliable, attentive, and passionate about every pup. I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks and drop-in visits during select weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I love getting outside with dogs and will always make sure your pup gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I’ll communicate clearly and send photo updates after every visit so you know they’re in great hands. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your care instructions, use secure leashing practices, pay close attention during walks, and make sure your pet has fresh water and plenty of affection. I’ll treat your home with respect and keep you updated with photos and notes after each visit so you can have peace of mind. Having cared for dogs my entire life, from running a pet-sitting business for over 10 years to volunteering 400+ hours at an animal shelter, I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities.

“Will be booking again! She asked thorough questions during our meet and greet. She was easy to communicate with and reliable. Thanks for taking care of Bleu!”

About: I have a large enclosed sunny backyard large enough for your doggie to run around. I live near many nice parks and trails and I'd love to walk your dog in nature, or take him to dog parks for a sniffing session. If you prefer your dog to stay only indoors and use the backyard only, that's fine too. I especially know how to take care of older dogs which I love, as I was a very attentive and loving caregiver to my own 14 y.o. rescue Cavalier King Charles until 2 months ago. I miss him a lot and I am looking forward to doting to your baby with all the extra love I got to spare! I use the Italian mom approach to care and attention: eat right, be where I can see you, exercise, sleep well and yes, everyone is allowed on the bed! Same for cats: I had cats all my life, often more than one at a time, and I have a special affinity with them. Even the persnickety ones let me pet them 😸 I am currently working from home, so your dog / cat's company is very welcome! Always ready for cuddles and distractions! I can take your dog for daily walks in the the upper Noe Valley/Glen Park neighborhood, or to the beach when time and weather allow it. I live in a house with a big backyard and your dog is allowed on bed and couch if it's ok with you. I can administer meds if needed. I will keep your dog close to me at all times. My dog was reactive and I am particular attentive in monitoring interactions and encounters with other dogs. I use only pet safe cleaning products. In case of cats, I would be extra careful to keep them indoor unless otherwise instructed.

About: Hi, I’m excited to meet you and your pet! I work from home, so whether your pet is staying at my home or I’m visiting yours, they’ll have plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I foster senior dogs through Muttville and have experience caring for senior pets. I also know how to administer oral and eye medications. My small home is best suited for small dogs and lower-energy large dogs. For house sitting, I’ll need to bring along my own small senior dog. She’s calm, friendly, and spends most of her day napping by my side while I work. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide lots of love and care, and send regular photo updates so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I work from home, so I can attend to your pet’s needs during the day. Frequent walks aren’t a problem! I can take your baby for walks and potty breaks between meetings. I follow your guidance and instructions to ensure the best care possible. Medicines are administered on time with care. Walks and feeding routines are followed as though you were here with your pet.

“Mick walked our dog Reggie. He was very kind and took time to come over for a meet and greet before his walk date. We came home to a happy dog. Thanks Mick!!”

“I can’t recommend Surekha as a walker highly enough! She is incredibly reliable and genuinely so sweet with my dog. It’s clear how much she cares, my pup is always happy and well-exercised. Most importantly, she is trustworthy, which gives me total peace of mind knowing my dog is in such good hands.”

“Cattleya was super helpful with Muffin and able to accommodate us last minute.”

“Dena was great with Wally. He liked her immediately and I trust his instincts. She followed my instructions to a T and was conscientious of the heat and came early for walks when it was too hot out in the afternoon. He can be stubborn but she worked with him and was patient. Thanks Dena!”

About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of pets from rats to cats to spiders and one rehabbed squirrel. I am a huge animal lover and I’m the top choice when my friends ever need a pet sitter because I’m so in love with their pets and love to go above and beyond when taking care of them. That means you absolutely don’t need to worry about them getting enough attention and love because they will get LOADS I hav experience taking care of senior pets and special needs pets and I do my best to really establish a trusting relationship so they know when I’m around everything is going to be ok. It would be my pleasure to meet more lovely pet parents and help them out whenever they need! I hav a very chill job as a personal assistant so I have lots of availability. And my hobby is reading and writing so you get a very very chill person in your space that you can count on to be respectful and drama free I can offer a variety of pet care, I can do overnights or several hours and I can also do just a quick drop in if that’s all you need. I don’t have a car so unfortunately unless a uber is covered I can’t take them to the vet or things like that but I’m happy to spend my day at a nearby park or just read a nice book with them in your lovely home. Whatever works for you and of course you can just let me know whatever it is you need, it would be my pleasure to accommodate 🥰

“Bailey was a great walker for Whitney that I’d recommend to anyone! She was really responsive and gave helpful write ups after each walk, and Whitney seemed really comfortable in her care. 10 out of 10, would Bailey again!”

About: Hi! My mom is a vet so I have grown up surrounded by animals from dogs, cats, birds, to rabbits, and ducks. I worked in Washington D.C at a dog day-care and had been walking dogs regularly over a year in Denver and San Francisco. I am an active person and enjoy being outdoors especially with a dog by my side. I have dealt with a variety of dogs from small to large, shy and aggressive dogs and am not phased by more aggressive or excitable dogs. I keep a calm composure and am able to manage situations where a dog gets excited about seeing another dog, cat, or person. While working at the dog care, I often had to manage situations calming down exited larger dogs, there is no situation I can't handle!

About: I have worked in dog hotels as an overnight caretaker (no humans, just dogs), I have been a dog walker and a dog owner for nearly my whole life. I trained our family service dog (recently passed) on my own and got her professionally certified. I am home everyday as a homeschooling mom. Your pet is a part of the family while they are here. My kids and I are a chill group, Dogs are a natural fit. I have a small deck in the back, my kids and I go on walks constantly, the dogs are welcome on the beds and on the couches. My home is their home.
