Potrero Hill Pogues

Pet care experience

NOTE: We have about 35 exterior and uncarpeted interior wooden steps. We're not a great fit for larger dogs who have difficulty going up and down! My teenage sons and I are dog-crazy, but we can't have a dog because of travel schedules. We're on Rover to fill that sad void. We LOVE having dogs in our lives. We love taking our borrowed puppers on outings at Fort Funston, Crissy Field, St Mary's Dog Park, or just great walks in our neighborhood (e.g., Esprit Park, Crane Cove). We never tire of playing catch or snuggling at night. We spoil them with bully sticks and other treats (with permission). We want to know all their quirks and routines. We love all dogs as our own. And we've even been known to teach them a trick or two. I grew up with dogs - begged my parents for a dog in kindergarten and had dogs through college. I had to graduate to cats because of work schedules, but sadly have no more kitties.

Nicki is the best sitter! Joni gets so much attention and exercise — and I get a ton of pictures and communication. Nicki is attentive to the needs of pups and always ensures a great stay!

Nicki was amazing! She kept me updated throughout Joni’s stay and sent great pictures. Joni came back exhausted and happy! Highly recommend :)

My lil bug loves Nicki as she always treats her with such care while I am away.

Information Nicki P. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog allowed on furniture and beds (yes, please)? How often do they need to stretch their legs outside? How do they tell you it's time for a walk? How do they feel about traveling in cars? Are they picky about eating? Anything that makes them nervous? How do they do around other dogs off-leash at places like Fort Funston? Any special commands or tricks they know?

A typical day

At minimum, we walk the streets of Potrero Hill. But we love visits to Fort Funston, Crissy Field, St. Mary's Dog Park, and other outdoor adventures. If your doggo likes to run, I'm happy to take him/her for as many miles as they're able.
