Dog Walking Inner Richmond

About: As both a cat owner and a regular pet sitter, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have over three years of experience caring for my own cat and frequently dog/cat sit for friends, caring for pets of different ages, including kittens. I'm comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed care instructions, cleaning litter boxes, maintaining feeding schedules, and providing plenty of playtime and affection. I'm also happy to transport pets to veterinary appointments if needed. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive care, frequent check-ins, and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away! I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I'm available for drop-in visits, overnight stays, extended house sitting, and weekend or holiday bookings. I make it a priority to follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, ensuring they receive consistent care, companionship, and plenty of attention while you're away. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special routines. I enjoy keeping pets engaged with toys, treats (when approved by you), enrichment activities, and lots of affection. I'm respectful of your home, keep a clean environment, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring, reliable hands. If any concerns arise, I'll communicate with you promptly and won't hesitate to contact your veterinarian if needed.

“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Abigail was amazing! Our pup connected with her immediately and she asked lots of great questions to ensure she could make our girl as comfortable and happy as possible. Kinja really enjoyed her walks. She even went above and beyond, cleaning up after Kinja when she had some tummy trouble in the house.”

“Mikele was a great walker. She was on time and easy to communicate with. My dog had a great time with her and I would definitely hire her again!”

Scott S.

“Jacob is communicative, reliable, and naturally gifted with animals. He was patient, attentive, and wonderfully caring my unpredictable pitbull mix. She bonded strongly with him in a record amount of time. Highly recommend!”

Nina W.

“We have a reactive dog and Joseph has been doing a terrific job managing her in our neighborhood with lots of dogs. You’re so great to help and so happy that fell. Get these walk during the day.”

Lindsay B.

“Great working with Derrick. He was flexible when we needed to make changes and great with Ollie. Hope we’ll see him again when Ollie needs a walking buddy. Many thanks”

Betty H.

“I cannot recommend Dionie highly enough! For an entire time of the booking, he walked my dog twice a day, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. My dog, who can be a bit picky with new people, immediately warmed up to him. Each walk was timely, and I could tell from my dog's happy demeanor that they enjoyed every moment. Dionie was incredibly professional, always providing updates and photos, which put my mind at ease knowing my furry friend was in good hands. He went above and beyond to ensure my dog had plenty of exercise, playtime, and even some extra love and attention. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and friendly dog walker, look no further than Dionie. I will definitely be booking him again in the future!”

Tamara T.

“Jesse was super flexible and took care of my baby with last minute notice! Knowing that he was getting attention and exercise from Jesse put this new dog mom at ease while being at work. Will definitely be a regular of Jesse’s clients!”

About: I have a 10-year-old dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I focus on providing calm, attentive, and reliable care. Whether your pet loves long walks or prefers staying in, I adapt to their needs. I’m happy to walk, feed, play, and spend quality time with your pet—whether that’s active play outside or simply keeping them company indoors. I also make sure to keep your space clean and take care of any pet-related messes. I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a core part of my daily routine through my new business, Lucky Paws Pet Sitting Bay Area. I structure my schedule to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I typically begin in the morning around 7 AM, where I spend up to 5 hours with pets, including a 1-hour walk, feeding, and playtime. During the day, pets may be left for 6–8 hours if they are comfortable being alone or crate trained. I always plan this around each pet’s individual needs and routine. In the evening (starting around 6 PM), I return for up to 4 hours of care, including a walk, feeding, and wind-down time before settling in for the night. Overnight care is available for clients within a reasonable distance of my location, and includes both evening and morning routines to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I do not provide 24/7 constant care, but I prioritize consistency, routine, and quality time, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to best match your pet’s needs. I provide safe, attentive care in your home by following your pet’s routine closely. I ensure doors and leashes are secure, keep your space clean, and provide regular updates. My goal is to create a calm, familiar environment so your pet feels comfortable and stress-free.

About: Hi, my name is Gen! I've been caring for dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, squirrels–you name it, for over 10+ years. As someone who loves animals, I want only the best for them. I figured I would bring my love for all pets and taking care of them to many others! I love exploring the city and getting to meet all the furry friends around San Francisco! My schedule is very flexible and I am very excited to help in any way that I can! I work from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pup and give them all the care and attention they need! I work with owners to ensure their pets feel like they’re home away from home! I don’t have pets at the moment, so I can give your fur baby all the attention they need! I also have a large indoor space to ensure your pet has room to play around or relax, and live right next to the park for when they have zoomies!

“Elle was fantastic! She arrived early for our scheduled walk, communicated clearly, and was incredibly kind. She took my pup on a lovely stroll through the park and even cleaned her up afterward. Highly recommend!”

Megan P.

“Rocio was lovely! We worked with her for a few mid-week walks for our pup and it was instantly obvious how attentive she was and thoughtful to our needs. We’d recommend Rocio for any of your pet care.”

Amanda B.

“Sarah was extremely responsive, communicative, and responsible and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker!!”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. They are my favorite animal. Being able to care for them means a lot to me! Being a morning person, and loving nature, and animals, I'd love to take your pet to lovely parks in the city to start the day. I'd be mostly available in the mornings til the evening. Or however long you need me to care for your pet. Just let me know and I'll make it work! I'm very respectful and responsible when it comes to people's needs. Let me know everything you'd like me to do and I'll make sure I do things right, for you and your pet.

About: When I was 8, my family adopted a senior dog from Muttville named Lady. She was blind and deaf, and very high maintenance. I cared for her by helping make her food, carrying her up and down stairs, and gave her so much love up until she passed away. My family now owns a dog and a cat, and the care I learned from Lady now is implemented into my daily life with them both. Since discovering my love for animals, I have cared for my neighbors pets whenever they ask, and I always form a strong bond with each cat and dog on my street. I am available for any time throughout the week to care for your animals. I feed and walk my dog in the mornings, and play with my cat outside too! I make sure to spend a lot of time with the animals I look after, because I genuinely enjoy playing and forming a connection with them!

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life! I grew up with fish and guinea pigs, and have had my cats since I was 8 years old! I've also volunteered at Muttville, and have experience taking care of other peoples' dogs. I'm comfortable administering oral medication and have some experience with injured animals. I work at a restaurant from tuesday through saturday in the late afternoons/evenings. I am able to care for animals from 8am-2pm, or after 9pm! I've cared for my own cats since they were kittens! My oldest I've had since I was 8 years old, and we got my second cat when I was 13, and I love them more than anything. I understand how important it is to trust that your pets are being well cared for, and I would love to meet them!

About: I have always had such a heart for animals and pets but there is always a special place in my heart for dogs and cats! ❤️I grew up with both dogs, cats, and a lot of rabbits, lol, and I really love all types of animals. I grew up with a Standard Poodle and then a Lab, and always walking them was like an event! I also grew up with Maine Coon cats and really love cats as well! I have a passion and interest in caring for animals and would love to walk your dog or care for your cat. Happy to walk, play, feed and groom your dog/cat. I will give your dog/cat the attention, walk, play and other requests are always welcome. I have open availability currently. I ensure the pets safety, follow any feeding/ medication schedule while providing a fun and safe space for your dog/cat and ensuring your dog/cat is given the most attention and good care while also getting a healthy exercise. I will make your pet feel comfortable and well cared for and would provide an engaging experience. I currently have open availability for the summer, since I work for the school district. I am available Monday-Sunday in the morning, day, and evening. I am committing to dog walking, dog sitting, and cat sitting and I do live in close proximity to the Presidio and Crissy Field which is a great location I would be happy to take your dog to.

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 11yrs and love to train dogs and puppies! I work from home and my schedule is flexible. I'll take care of your dog as if they were my own! I’ll ask about any special needs or accommodations for the walks. Happy to do a meet and greet before hand if that helps. I'm originally from the Bay Area and just spent 7 yrs in NYC. I love being back in CA and exploring the outdoors with man's best friend!! Work from home, flexible schedule. I usually like to take dogs out around 7 or 8am and then again around 4 or 5pm for sunsets. I can also do short walks in between. I have extensive experience with high energy dogs. I have dog beds and food bowls and high quality treats. I make sure to accommodate so that your dog feels at home!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and caring for them has always felt natural to me. Growing up, I had Cocker Spaniels, a Himalayan cat, and a Siberian Husky, and later had three cats of my own with very different personalities that I adored. Animals—especially cats—tend to gravitate toward me, and I’ve always had a strong, intuitive connection with them. Over the past year, I’ve also been helping care for my boss’s dog, Maisie. From potty training to long hikes and overnight stays, I’ve loved being part of her routine. I’m active and usually go on long hikes in the mornings, so I’m always happy to bring a dog along for exercise and fresh air! I offer check-ins, overnight care, and boarding for cats and small dogs (especially hypoallergenic and potty-trained pups). I treat every animal with love, patience, and genuine care—my goal is always to make sure they feel safe, happy, and right at home. My schedule is pretty open, except Thursdays, I work a job all day Thursdays, but any other time I’m pretty flexible! I love to take the dogs for walks in the presidio or around heron lake. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or theirs, I focus on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and at ease. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—mealtimes, walks, playtime, and any special needs—so they feel secure and cared for even when their owners are away. At my home, I make sure it’s quiet, clean, and cozy, especially for cats or small dogs. I only board one pet (or one family of pets) at a time to make sure they get my full attention and aren’t overwhelmed. I’m especially careful about keeping things tidy and safe, and I always provide plenty of affection, enrichment, and exercise—whether that’s a walk, a hike, or a good play session. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and routines, and I treat their pets like my own. Whether I’m doing drop-in visits or overnight stays, I make sure pets feel loved, relaxed, and well cared for until their humans return.

Volunteer of 2 years at a senior dog rescue and dog body language and safety trained. Experienced with puppies all the way through seniors with special needs such as vision loss, hearing loss, anxiety and medication administration. Happy to provide further references. Work fully remote and make my own hours, so my schedule is highly flexible and I'm home to give lots of attention during the day. No other pets at home, but roommates who will give lots of belly rubs. A stone’s throw from Alamo Square dog park and close to Panhandle and Golden Gate Park for plenty of green space. With remote work, I’m happy to house sit if that would make your pet more comfortable.
