Dog Walking Inner Sunset

About: Hi! I’m May. I’m a responsible resident doctor who loves dogs! I just moved back to the Bay Area from NC. I had a dog for nearly 15 years and miss having a furry friend around. Have also been a go-to cat sitter for multiple friends! I am very communicative and make sure to give at least daily updates while sitting. I’m a busy resident, but would love to take care of your dog on the weekends I’m free. 😊 I usually am working every other weekend, so I would not be the best fit for recurring visits. No pets, children, or other people will be at my home. Will take your dog on a nice long walk!! and they will probably be fawned over by my friends for extra attention

“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!”

“Tobin has been walking Reese for a few months now. He's consistently attentive to Reese. I really like that Tobin is flexible with schedule requests. He’s easy to reach and extremely responsive.”

About: Hi there! I have years of experience caring for medium and large breed dogs, including walking, feeding, playtime, administering medications, and providing daily care for both my own dogs and those of friends and family. My goal is to make sure your dog is safe, happy, and well-exercised, though I’ll admit that getting to spend time with them is a perk for me too :) I’m a Doctor of Physical Therapy student with a flexible schedule and plenty of availability to provide attentive, reliable care for your dog. I primarily study from my home in the inner sunset, allowing me to maintain a flexible routine. I’m committed to giving pets the time, attention, and companionship they deserve. I grew up with and around dogs and have extensive experience caring for medium and large breeds, specifically. I understand the importance of creating a safe, calm, and positive environment for every pet. I prioritize each dog’s comfort, safety, and individual needs while providing plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I am attentive to routines, habits, feeding schedules, and any special instructions to ensure your pet feels secure and well cared for while you’re away.

“Thanks for walking Wally and sending update photos of his time outside! I’m sure he was stoked to have someone check in on him a couple times a day!”

About: It is never easy leaving your pup in the care of others while away. I’ve been there many times with my own dogs. I strive to provide the best care I can to put my doggie guest and their human at ease. The key to a positive experience is to know my guest's daily routine and their needs well. For 7+ years, I opened my heart and home to foster dogs of various age, size, and breed. I learned lot of about caring for dogs and dog behavior. Dogs are a huge part of my life. Currently, I am not fostering dogs, and my own dogs have all passed. I work from home with flexible hours, so your pup will enjoy a lot of attention. Your pup's days will be filled with customized exercise, playtime, and attention to their dietary routines. With my knowledge in dog behavior and positive reinforcement, your pup will always feel safe, understood, and supported! I integrate pet care into my daily schedule with: *Constant companionship: I work from home with flexible hours, your pet is never left waiting for attention. *Basics: appropriate treats and regularly refreshed water bowls, and a flood of affection. *Tailored Fitness: guaranteed minimum of 2 daily walks, adjusted to your dog's needs (from long, athletic trail walks to short, gentle potty breaks). *Routine preservation: I honor your dog's specific home schedule to prevent any stress or disruption while you are away. I have a fence in yard. My doggie guests can use the doggie door anytime to access the yard. They can roam free in the house. I have several dog beds in the house and they can lounge in the sun in the spot of their choosing. I am very conscientious about not leaving food or trash out to keep my guests safe. Overall, life in the house is peaceful with many fun outings to engage them physically and mentally. I follow clients' specific instructions and routines to keep my guests comfortable and safe in my care. Their safety and well-being is my top priority.

About: Hello, I’m Emily! I recently moved to San Francisco after getting married in June. My husband got a job here, so we made the move from Wisconsin and are excited to start this new chapter! I’ve always been a huge dog lover and love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have my own dog, Finn, a chocolate Lab, at home, so I know how much our dogs mean to us. I’d love the opportunity to take your dog on walks, give them some extra love and attention, and make sure they have a fun and happy time while you’re away. I’d be so excited to get to know your pup and treat them like my own! I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility in my schedule to care for your dog! I’d love the opportunity to help with dog walking and am happy to work around a time that’s convenient for you! When it comes to dog walking, your dog’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I’ll make sure to walk in safe, dog-friendly areas, use the proper equipment, and pay close attention to your dog’s body language and behavior throughout the walk. I’ll also be mindful of weather conditions, traffic, other dogs and people, and anything else that could potentially make your dog uncomfortable or unsafe. I’ll follow any specific instructions or routines you provide and make sure your dog is secure before, during, and after every walk. With my own dog, Finn, his wellness and safety are always my number-one priority, and I bring that same level of care and responsibility to every dog I have the opportunity to look after. I want every dog in my care to feel safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for!

“Callie is a great dog-walker! She takes good care of our big older dog and communicates well if the dog is extra low-energy or otherwise behaving differently than usual. Lucky to have her!”

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and small rodents like mice, hamsters and guinea pigs. I’ve walked and dog-sat pups of all personalities, cared for cats, and used to volunteer at an animal shelter giving dogs extra TLC. Every pet gets attention, play, and care tailored to them. I always send updates so you can relax knowing they’re happy, safe, and loved :) I’m currently pretty flexible with walks, visits, and overnight stays, and I make sure to provide consistent attention, exercise, and playtime. I’m happy to follow your pet’s schedule for meals, walks, and any special care they need! I provide care that’s tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. I always follow care instructions closely and send updates. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, while being respectful of your home and routines. For dogs: Walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. For cats: Companionship, enrichment, and follow their usual routines.

“Working with Rocio for daily walks has been great!! She’s very consistent with communication and photos and I have complete trust that she’s taking the best care of my frenchie every day. 100% recommend!”

“Syd is the best! She walked my senior dog (age 12) and her younger sister (age 2) while we were on vacation. The younger one is a slow burn getting to know new people and so I was definitely worried that she wouldn't go out with this new friend. But! Syd persevered through the week and even attempted a rainy day walk! The girls said, NO. But she was back again the following day and by the end of the week, the girls were really happy to walk with her! We'll definitely be calling on Syd again to care for our two girls. She's a great communicator and really a solid animal person.”

About: Since I was 10 I have had dogs in my life. From the loving ones who to sit and be pet to the ones who are busy busy busy and need a job, I have experienced most of the likes of pets. As for personalities, I can take care of the overly anxious ones to the super social ones. So if you need a couch potato for your pet, or a marathon runner, I can be your sitter! I love them all! I work out regularly (2-3 hrs) either at the gym or running outside so that can be extra convenient if your pet is active as well! I am also doing school part time (1-3 hrs). Other than that, the rest of my day is open! I live in a duplex with no other animals. Lots of open space for them to roam around. Also very close to Golden Gate park for longer excursions.

About: I have grown up around dogs and now have one of my own. I know that no two dogs are the same and having a reactive dog myself, I am very well-aware of dog behavior and body language. I have been called "my dog's favorite person" by several friends. I am excited to get to know your dog and meet their needs whether it's sniffing, playing, or a long brisk walk! I live and work in San Francisco and have some flexibility with my work schedule. I am happy to work with you to make my schedule work for you and your pup. I have a fenced in yard near Golden Gate Park (our second backyard) and a playful dog of my own. I am sure to never be away from the house for too long and can set up your dog in a crate, let them roam free, or give them access to certain spaces in the house using gates.

About: I am a certified dog trainer specializing in puppies, obedience, confidence building and positive reinforcement training. I have been working dogs for the past four years as well as raising numerous dogs from doodles to Malinois’. I’ve volunteered at shelters, assisted group class, conduct private sessions, board & trains, reverse board & trains, day care, worked with known trainers around the valley, and now am branching out to boarding, sitting, and walking! I believe in setting dogs up for success, so let me help you take care of your pup. I work from home and I have an open and flexible schedule to suit all needs. My daily routine consists of caring for my personal dog, Phoenix, who needs to be worked multiple times a day as he is a Malinois. I am no stranger to the care and needs of dogs, my life basically revolves around them. I care for and train my own dog daily and he loves to work and having friends. I frequent the park daily and also have a large fenced backyard. In a clients home I respect their space and their needs depending on what they request for their pet(s).

About: I have taken care of and trained my dog (a little poodle) since she was a puppy. I also help friends take care of their dogs when needed. I have experience with small and big dogs, puppies, and senior dogs. I enjoy playing with dogs and watching them. I work part time and my schedule is flexible now. I’m available on weekdays and weekends. I enjoy walking, so let me know if your dog needs someone to walk with them. I walk just one dog at a time, unless you have more than one dog. I will adjust the walking speed based on your dog’s needs. I’ll make sure to be on time for both the start and end of the walk.

“Francis was very easy to work with. They followed the guidelines for the dogs well, and provided timely and effective communication. I'm looking forward to future bookings 👍🏽”

My rate includes an extra 30 minutes of specialized care and one-on-one attention during walks or drop ins. I treat each pup like family — with personalized routines, enrichment, and snuggles.

About: For me, dog walking and sitting isn't just a job—it's a passion. There's something truly special about spending time with these amazing animals, getting to know their unique personalities, and building bonds that last a lifetime.
