Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal-loving dog walking!
I have cared for a variety of my own pets, and also watched others for friends, since the age of 11. Starting in 2020 I became a regular paid house-and-pet-sitter for a few friends, and grew a small network based on their recommending me to others. It’s been great spending time with these pets, primarily dogs, and now I am looking to get more work doing daily dog walking in San Francisco. My skills come from my personal experience and enthusiastic self-education, as well as a lot of time in my youth at educational programs provided by the SF SPCA. I also have experience on ranches and farms with horses and livestock animals, which is a definite asset to my confidence and competence. I truly love working with animals. I’ve gotten to know the dogs I watch well, including their unique quirks and needs, and I enjoy the challenging parts as well as the fun and cuddles. I believe firmly in positive reinforcement and that as the humans it is always our job to find the gentle and mindful response to any issue that arises. Please contact me so we can get to know each other, looking forward to meeting you and your furry babies and adventuring with them! Based in the Sunset neighborhood but happy to work anywhere in San Francisco. Low carbon footprint: I ride my bike to you! Thank you so much for reading!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have cared for anxious high-energy dogs and senior dogs, the whole spectrum. Currently offering dog walking, as well as pet sitting any and all pets in clients’ homes, sadly not permitted animals in my apartment. I am quick to perceive any issues and know what to look for and what to avoid regarding physical safety and dangerous foods.
Ratings and reviews
Fiona has been so patient with our very nervous pup - and she’s also been very communicative and easy to get in touch with!
Fiona is great- we are so lucky she had availability for our dog and right off the bat communicates wonderfully and clearly understands stubborn terriers.
Fiona has been an excellent regular walker for our pup. Highly recommend.
Fiona has been petsitting our dog Noah for seven years and she is absolutely wonderful. She takes great care of Noah and treats him like her own. She is responsible, reliable, punctual, and always exceedingly neat when she stays at our house. We trust her completely and would recommend her to anyone!
Fiona is amazing! She has taken care of my chocolate lab, Mylie, many times over the years and always goes above and beyond to keep her happy and loved. I can’t recommend her enough for her kindness, reliability, and true love for animals.
