Pet Sitting Outer Richmond

“Anurag was wonderful with my pittie mix Mo, who can be dog reactive and sensitive but is also a love, affectionate and a bit anxious, while I was gone for 24 hours! Long walks, potty breaks and meals - all went smoothly. Lots of pictures and he gave Mo his time and care. Will book again!”

About: Hi! I’m excited to meet you and your furry family members! I’m based in San Francisco and would love to help care for your pets, whether that’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or keeping them company while you’re away. I’m a caring, responsible, and detail-oriented person who understands how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’ll take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I’ll keep you updated with messages, photos, and plenty of reassurance while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks and playtime or prefers a cozy afternoon and lots of cuddles, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’d love to learn about your pet’s routine, favorite activities, and any special instructions to make sure they get the best possible care. I look forward to meeting you both! I am currently freelancing so I have a flexible schedule. I live near a lot of parks and outdoor areas that are very dog friendly. I will always make sure to leave your home just as I found it. I am incredibly clean and responsible. I love a neat home and am always respectful in others’ space

About: BUILD TRUST, NOT FEAR. 🤎 I am a professional Force-Free Dog Trainer (active CPDT-KA candidate) and founder of EDIZEN Canine Care. Rather than a standard pet sitter, I provide behavior-informed care grounded in scientific learning theory (R+) and LIMA principles. I specialize in sensitive, anxious, rescue, or easily overstimulated dogs who struggle in chaotic daycare settings. Whether your dog needs help with loose-leash walking, cooperative handling (for grooming or paws), or simply a calm and patient human companion, I customize every day to keep them entirely below their stress threshold. To ensure the highest safety, I host only ONE client dog at a time—giving your pup my full, undivided attention in a calm environment. • Covered by a $2,000,000 commercial liability policy (PCI) in addition to the Rover Guarantee. • Trilingual: English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. I work from home as an independent behavior consultant, which allows me to be present throughout the day and provide full-time, hands-on supervision for your pup. A typical day in my care includes: • Morning: A structured, loose-leash morning walk (20–40 mins) to Golden Gate Park or around the quiet Richmond neighborhood for gentle sensory decompression and potty breaks. • Daytime: Calm indoor rest, mental enrichment (puzzle feeders, slow-feeder mats), and gentle manners reinforcement. Frequent potty breaks every 2–4 hours. • Afternoon/Evening: A relaxing second walk before dinner, followed by quiet indoor decompression, belly rubs, and peaceful settle time. I maintain a predictable and low-stress routine so your dog feels safe, secure, and right at home! Safety and emotional well-being are my absolute top priorities. • Quiet Home Setup: Located on 25th Ave in the Richmond District, steps away from Golden Gate Park. My apartment is clean, peaceful, and fully dog-proofed with hardwood floors and non-slip washable mats. • Space & Settle: I provide spacious, heavy-duty playpens where dogs can voluntarily choose to relax and settle comfortably, rather than being forced into cramped crates. • Solo VIP Stays: I never board dogs from different families simultaneously. Your dog will never face sudden conflicts, resource guarding, or overwhelming pack energy. • Daily Transparency: You will receive daily high-definition photo and video updates, along with detailed notes on their mood, potty habits, and activities.

About: My animal care experience started with my first dog foster at 18. In the past 18 years I have worked as a zookeeper before transitioning to Veterinary Medicine. I was a kennel tech, then Veterinary Assistant before earning my Registered Veterinary Technician License. My skills include dog walking, cat socializing, administering medications (oral, transdermal, injectable), nail trimming and positive reinforcement. I also have experience performing health exams, giving vaccinations, surgery prep and monitoring anesthesia. Over the years I have been a reliable dog walker, cat and house sitter for friends and family, as needed. At home I have a senior black chihuahua and senior black cat. I understand the need for wanting your pets to have the best care while you’re away. I am here to help take care of that for you. I’m currently working as an RVT working 10-hour shifts. Outside of my day job, I plan to be there to provide dog walking, cat sitting and house sitting as my free time allows. In your home, I will provide the type of care that you request. Whether that is dropping in and feeding your animal or taking your dog for a nice, long, stimulating walk, I aim to make it comfortable and enjoyable for your pet.

“Katie did an amazing job taking care of our 8 month old puppy! He is super energetic and has some anxiety being away from us but she did great. We also needed to be flexible with the timing and length of his care and she accommodated everything. Would absolutely book with her again.”

Sabrina R.

“Maho did a great job sitting with our kitty. Maho is very friendly, sent us extremely cute photos and videos of her playing with our cat, we were sure the cat is fine! The communication was super smooth and easy, and we even found a nice postcard when we got back! I would definitely recommend Maho as a petsitter and work with her again. Thank you Maho! =(^_____^)=”

About: I've cared for two cats of my own for three years and regularly dog sit for friends, including a Labrador and a terrier. Through TrustedHousesitters, I've looked after pets and homes across San Francisco, including a 15-day stay with an 11-year-old dog and a 9-year-old cat, an 8-year-old dog named Franklin, and a household with two dogs and a reptile. Every review has been 5 stars, with owners highlighting my communication, reliability, and care. What sets me apart is consistency and communication. I stick closely to each pet's feeding, walk, and play routines so they feel at home, and I follow house rules carefully. I'm experienced with senior pets, including giving daily medication to a senior dog, and I'm comfortable with multi-pet households. I send regular updates and photos so you can relax while you're away, and I always leave your home as tidy as I found it. I am currently working remotely in SF - from 6a-2p and can take care of pets during working hours. (Taking dogs on 30 min max walks during working hours) can walk dogs more after 2pm I work remotely on weekdays until 2pm, so I'm able to spend time with pets at home and take dogs on two walks of up to 25 minutes each during work hours. After 2pm, I have plenty of time for longer walks and play. If you prefer pickup walks, I can do those starting at 2:30pm on weekdays, and I'm flexible on weekends (with advance notice). I'm also happy to do longer stays while you travel, so your pets get consistent care. I've earned 5-star reviews as a house sitter on TrustedHousesitters, so you can feel confident leaving your pets and home with me

“Vivian was an exceptional cat sitter! They were caring, kind, and spent quality time with our kitties. Vivian was flexible, accommodating a last-minute request and consistently sent us thoughtful observant updates and pictures that made us feel at ease. Highly recommend”

About: I have spent the last 4+ years working as a professional dog walker - walking a pack of up to 8 off leash dogs in beautiful San Francisco. My love for dogs was shaped by the amazing dogs I grew up with in Berkeley, CA. After majoring in sociology I decided to dedicate my life to understanding canines instead of humans, oops! I currently walk a pack of dogs M-F 10-3. Possibly have openings to add to the crew or open to walks outside of those time parameters. Availability for boarding at my apt or house sitting. I live in an apartment 2 blocks from GGP, 2 blocks from Lands End, and 10 blocks from Ocean Beach. When I watch a pet they become apart of my family - I treat them with lots of love and the utmost care.

About: I've spent over 10 years around dogs and cats, caring for pets belonging to friends, family, and household members. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, exercise, administering basic medications, litter box maintenance, and providing attentive companionship. As a professional climbing coach, safety, reliability, and communication are central to my work, and I bring those same qualities to pet care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. As a professional climbing coach, I maintain a structured schedule and place a high value on reliability and clear communication. I make time for pet visits, walks, feeding schedules, and check-ins throughout the week, and I enjoy providing pets with consistent care and attention while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow feeding, medication, exercise, and litter box instructions, and I make sure pets have plenty of attention and companionship based on their individual needs and personality. I treat clients' homes with the same respect and care that I would my own and provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. As a cat owner myself, I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and paying attention to changes in behavior. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and reliable experience for both pets and their owners.

About: Raised with dogs, birds, and cats I have experience caring for a variety of animals across different species. I additionally have an ample amount of experience both dog and cat sitting, and particularly have been called a cat whisperer by many. I'm currently working part time and am always about so both everyday pet sits and dog walks are perfect for me. I'm a writer and avid reader so if your pet needs some simple cuddles and affection we can sit down and read together. I treat others' spaces with even more tact and respect than my own. I resolve to follow any rules on both where pets and I should be and do my best to respect the space of my animals as well to make them feel as comfortable as possible.

“Nicole is amazing!!!!!! She made my really shy kitty feel so safe. She was very communicative, punctual, and sent so many adorable photos and videos. It is clear that she loves animals and she took such good care of my little guy. I will absolutely book with her again!!”

About: I absolutely love pets, especially cats. Across Rover, Cat in a Flat, and Trustedhousesitters, I have taken care of over 30 pets since 2023, including cats and dogs. I always give the owners frequent updates with pictures and videos, and respond quickly. I would have a cat myself but we aren’t ready for the commitment so I do this to still be around them when I can ❤ I work remote so I’m flexible with drop-offs and pickups and can do last minute requests! I also have an instagram if you want to see more of my cat-sitting experience 🐾 I work remote so I am very flexible to take care of pets and also to do last minute drop-offs and pickups. I can also provide frequent updates. I make sure the space is clean, secure, and free of hazards, with cozy spots for naps and windows for curious cats to look out of. I always give them plenty of affection and attention, while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I’m also happy for them to sleep with me at night and cuddle ❤️

About: Hi! I’m an experienced foster dog parent and Rover dog sitter. I have fostered four dogs, each for up to two months at a time. I currently have no foster pup and don’t have a resident dog, so your dog will be the only dog in my home. I have experience fostering both younger and senior dogs (including hospice care, partially deaf and blind dogs). I work from home so your dog will seldom be alone, and can take them on walks every 4 hours (4 walks a day) with lots of play time. I am also in a very dog-friendly area, minutes from GGP and Mountain Lake Park. I never take dogs to dog parks and do everything to make your dog feel at home! NOTE: Due to my building’s weight limits I can only board dogs 15lbs or under. I work from home which gives me the flexibility to give your dog lots of attention and ample availability to walk or visit your dog throughout the day! With my attentiveness and experience, I make sure your dog has a fun, safe time with me. I avoid other dogs and children. I always keep dogs on leash during walks, and I don’t go to dog parks/off leash areas.

“Taty is fantastic! She takes it slow with Hedgie (he can be a little nervous/has some anxiety) and is an excellent communicator. We’re so lucky to have her care!”
