Dog Walking Russian Hill

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly love spending time with them. I’m patient, reliable, and understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, sniffing every tree, or just wants company, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, keep routines consistent, administer basic medications if needed, and send plenty of photo updates so you know your pet is having a great time. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. I’m excited to build my profile by providing dependable care and making sure every pet feels comfortable and loved. I’m getting married next year and would love to make a bit of additional income doing something I’m genuinely passionate about :) I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Mondays are my in-office day, but otherwise I’m available most weekdays and weekends and am happy to work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, preferred walking routes, or special routines. I believe in clear communication and will send photo updates after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would my own.

“Taylor was an absolutely fantastic dog walker! So loving with Skittles, and extremely responsive. We would book her again without hesitation.”

About: Hello ! Although I am new to Rover, I've taken care of dogs and cats most of my life and have always had a natural connection with them. When they're in my care I treat them as if they are my own babies. In recent years I have often taken care of my sister's dog Juniper. We have a special bond and she's taught me so much about being a dog aunt :) I helped train her as a puppy and watching her grow up has been a source of so much joy in my life. Many people have observed my warm way with animals especially cats and dogs. I am very attentive, affectionate and protective with them. With that said I also know how to read them and respect their space/needs. I am currently finishing up my degree this Fall semester and have class once a week. I am flexible most of the week including weekends. I am available to dog or cat sit. If your dog or cat has special needs I am able to provide basic support and care. I am also available for dog walking services as well.

“Elise was fantastic! She walked our dog for 7 days when we were out of town, for 1 hour-long walks. Every day she made rover cards with photo updates, and commentary about our dog and their adventures on the walk! He looked very happy! Would use Elise again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs, specifically Labs and Golden Retrievers since I was born. I love to go on walks and to the parks for myself and would love to bring your dog along for the fun! I live in the Russian Hill area and have my days free before 7am and after 10:30am so I can take care of your pup during the times you have to go to work! I am a full-time law student and my schedules vary day to day with Mondays and Wednesday being my only time I’m unavailable. I typically end school around 10:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays and can be back to take care of your pet after that! I cannot bring your dog back to my apartment as it is very small, but know how to keep a home clean and as you left it! I grew up with Labs, so I’m very familiar with cleaning up after them, and will ensure your pup is happy and comfortable in your space and on walks!

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you genuinely trust with your pet. I also have experience caring for a dog with fear based aggression and anxiety. I worked closely with our veterinarian and a behavioral specialist, including medication management, 1:1 training and learning how to recognize triggers and help him feel safe. That experience taught me the importance of patience, consistency and meeting each dog exactly where they are. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, regular walks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding, medication and care routines, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love and attention I’ve always given my own. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m typically up around 6am and am available for morning walks, midday breaks, playtime, meals, and evening walks. Since I’m home throughout the day, I can provide plenty of companionship and adjust to your dog’s usual schedule and needs. As a registered nurse, I’m naturally attentive to details, changes in behavior, routines, and overall wellbeing. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, activity restrictions, and behavioral needs. I also have experience caring for anxious and fear-reactive dogs and pay close attention to body language and comfort levels. My home has a private, fully fenced outdoor patio, which gives dogs a secure space to get fresh air and relax between walks. Pets are welcome to settle in wherever they feel most comfortable, and my goal is to provide a calm, safe, loving environment that feels like home.

“Gaby is wonderful! We have a very sensitive Frenchie with all the Frenchie health quirks and she has been so caring and attentive. We highly recommend Gaby!”

“Elric was great with my dog! Definitely recommend him to anyone who is looking for a dog walker. He was also super responsive and was able to help me out last minute. Also provided updates throughout the walk. Thanks Elric!!”

About: I’ve had small dogs since I was little, but I rescued my soul dog, Leica, from Muttville in 2017. Over the years, I administered lots of cheese pills and brushed the few teeth he had. We went on lots of adventures from the office to the beach and mountains. Unfortunately his last 6 months were fraught with a neurological disorder. I believe it’s a honor to care for senior dogs and keep them comfortable as a small return of the love they given. While it was a honor, it was not easy and it gave me a deep understanding of the needs of senior dogs. I love all dogs but the little old ones are extra special to me ❤️ Any dog or cat I care for, I will do so with 100% attention, love, respect for them and your home, and routines. Because I really do care so deeply about their health and safety, I will not be caring for more than one pet at a time. And of course as a long time Rover customer, I know clear communication and photos are essential. Looking forward to meeting you, your pet, and happy to answer any questions you have! Currently working remote so I can flex my day more or less to your dog’s walk and feed routine. Usually around 8:30, 12:30, and 5:30. We’ll relax or play in the evening depending on their temperament. I have no other pets and many options for areas of my apartment where they can be set up to feel at home. No backyard but very close to the park. Up three flights of stairs but happy to carry smaller dogs if that’s what they need. I also still have a dog stroller for less mobile friends! For their safety I won’t ever let them off leash.

I work Tuesday—Saturday 8am-4:30pm so I have monday and Sunday as my primary waking days. Also will have availability some days after work Monday—Friday.

About: I grew up with dogs and have been enjoying caring for friends’ and family’s dogs while they travel for over 15 years. I was responsible for full time dog care up to 2 weeks including feeding, daily companionship when remote working and walking or hiking with dogs as well as overnight stays. Recently retired and expanding my dog walking/care to more pets. I recently retired and very flexible weekday hours, but away many weekends. If in town, I can likely open times for weekend days as well. My hours during the day are also quite flexible currently. I have cared for friends’ pets at their homes with overnight stays of a few days to a few weeks. Currently seeking dog walking opportunities but open potentially to future home stay care for pets.

“Kylie has been nothing short of amazing for my two pups Mango and Mercy. My dogs are aloof and slow to warm up to strangers but Kylie has been sooo patient, kind, and gentle with them. They both absolutely ADORE her.”

About: Meet your pet’s new favorite aunt! As a former pet parent with a current empty nest, I have over 15 years of pet care experience. This includes caring for my friend’s and family’s pets, ranging from stopping by to stimulate and pet their cat for an hour or two, to watching their dog for multiple nights. I live just hills away from some of the best parks in the city (imo), providing your pets with ample opportunities for time outside for relief, running, or even just some much-needed sun bathing. Open to working out specific needs/requests as they come up. I currently work full-time at Stanford University, but currently work from home three days a week. My work from home days offer ample opportunities for walks, park time, and just plain attention for your pet. Pets are welcome on the furniture in my home and are taken on a walk to relieve themselves. Dogs must be able to alert for the need to relieve themselves, otherwise walks will be taken every 3-5 hours. For care in client’s home, the client’s rules apply.

“Rachael has been amazing with my older, but energetic pup, Jonah! Jonah has some quirks and has to be watched pretty carefully on walks around the neighborhood (he likes to graze) and Rachael has adapted so well to his walks and demand for pets! Would definitely recommend her to take care of your pet.”

I have experience with dogs of all sizes/ breeds and I would love to care for your fur baby! I work a full time job near the Embarcadero area on Monday-Thursday and wfh in Nob Hill Fridays so I would be available for drop in services and walks before/after work and during my lunch hour. I am not currently accepting pets in my own home due to size constraints and already having 2 cats who don’t get along with dogs.
