Beautiful Backyard & Fort Mason!

Pet care experience

I love dogs. Last year I recently lost my beloved dog of 15 years of age named Beauty. She lived a long wonderful life but was battling through some difficult health issues at her old age. Not a day goes by that I don't miss her. I've lived in my neighborhood for 10 years and throughout that time she was always by my side. It's been difficult not sharing my life with her anymore but now I'm in a wonderful position to take care of other dogs . I have a wonderful apartment in Cow Hollow that is pet friendly, a beautiful back yard, and I am minutes away from some of the most beautiful scenic walking trails in SF. I would love to take care of your dog. When I take of dogs they are always treated like royalty in my home. You can expect lots of attention and love from me just like with Beauty. Oh yeah, did I I also mention that I allow dogs on my furniture and bed:)

Great to work with -- we felt very comfortable that our little elderly Cavalier would be well loved and cared for. Also appreciated Francesca's flexibility when we needed to add an extra day at the end. Logan looked very happy there, so we were, too!

Francesca took great care of our little guy. He is full of energy, and got plenty of walks and attention to hold him over. We also got daily photo updates which we always appreciate. Thanks again!

If I could add another star or two I would! Francesca was such a great pet sitter. Our dog is blind and she treated him with such love and affection I don't think he wanted to come home. She also was very accommodating when we had to unexpectedly change our plans and extend our time away. She is a fantastic pet sitter and person. We highly recommend her to care for your furry little loved ones.

Francesca watched my 2 elderly dachshunds for 4 nights and 5 days. My little old ladies are a handful. They don't have loads of energy because they are 10 and 11 years old but they just need a lot of love and TLC. Francesca was amazing at communicating and checking in with me. She understood the extra care one of my dogs needed. It was a breeze to pick them up and drop them off. Her apartment is very dog friendly with lots of comfy places to hang out. Having my dogs go to her place couldn't have been more easier. I went on vacation and she made it so that I was up to date on how they were and everything was just so easy. She was sweet and caring. If you want a no fuss, sweet, easy and just downright great person to watch your dogs, Francesca is your girl.
