1. Ingyin M.
“Ingyin was amazing with our two Boston Terriers over the weekend! She kept us in the loop with tons of cute pics and videos, making us feel like we were still part of our fur babies' days even though we were miles away. And when our flight got delayed, she was super flexible about adjusting the pick-up time, which was a huge relief. We 100% recommend her to any pet parent out there!”
2. Gabrielle & Patrick C.
“Gabrielle and paddy were amazing with Frida and kitty. Frida is slightly obsessed with Paddy and considering she’s shy and nervous this was huge feat. They took such lovely care of our girls and we will definitely be having them pet sit again and again in the future.”
3. Sam G.
“Sam was fantastic with Red. She is warms and welcoming and has a great set up for dogs. We were delayed getting home and Sam was flexible in keeping Red another night. It was really a great first experience and we’ll be back!”
4. Jamie Y.
“I have boarded my little terrier, Gina, with Jamie twice now, once for 3 week stay. Jamie kept me updated daily with messages and pictures. She handled with ease a rather complex medication and food regimen. Jamie was also very easy to reach and responsive. I would not hesitate to have her look after my little one again.”
5. Stephanie G.
“Stephanie and her boyfriend took wonderful care of our eight-year-old chocolate lab / border collie rescue while we were out of the country for two weeks. Our pup has serious dog-aggression, which they managed seamlessly by taking her for walks during times when there are fewer dogs around. They also administered her three different medications daily, and sent pictures every day or so. Stephanie and her boyfriend are both distinctly genuine and kind people who care a lot about dogs. We will not hesitate to ask them to care for our pup again.”
6. Jaden L.
“If I could leave 10 stars, I would. Jaden is the BEST dog sitter ever! I can’t imagine leaving Toshi with anyone else other than him. Thank you so much for taking care of her! :)”
7. Rachel & Benjamin K.
“Rachel and Benjamin are awesome! They're communications were great, and they really love dogs! Our little pup loved her stay with them! Our trip ended up lasting two days longer than originally planned due to inclement weather, but Rachel and Benjamin helped take the stress away. Thank you!! :)”
8. Kevin & Kayla K.
“We were very glad that we’ve found Kevin and Kayla. They were responsive and thoughtful. Both Mr. Cat and Pancake adjusted well and enjoyed their stay!”
9. Ashma B.
“Ashma came to the rescue when needed a last minute sitter for our high energy pup Zoe and exceeded every expectation. As an anxious dog mom I can say that Ashma’s updates and care for Zoe immediately put me at ease. I am so thrilled to have found her and can’t wait to have Zoe stay with her in the future!”
10. Carla R.
“Carla was amazing! She was extremely respectful and listened very well. She sent me tons of photos and videos of my dog while I was gone for a two week vacation. I’d highly recommend her!”
11. Luna P.
“Luna was incredible with Fillet! He came back, happy and well disciplined, with no regressions in the training that we worked on. She is quick to communicate and very responsive. It was a breeze to get her set up with my dog, and just as easy to coordinate a pick up. I would absolutely work with her again and recommend her without hesitation”
12. Judy C.
“I couldn’t think of a more amazing dog sitter than Judy! We were so fortunate to be referred to her by a friend in the city and that she was available for a full week. She watched our large labradoodle and treated her as if she was her own dog giving her so much love. We got so many photos and check-ins to let us know our girl was doing good. She even went above and beyond when our girl had an upset stomach and made her multiple homemade meals. Judy will be our go-to anytime we’re out of town! We can’t thank her enough.”
13. Katie R.
“I'm not sure who enjoyed the stay more, Katie or my dog! Very friendly, responsive, and sent photo updates which are very appreciated. Would definitely stay again!”
14. lindy d.
“Lindy would make a dog owner very comfortable knowing their pet was in Lindy’s care. Lindy is extremely responsible, dependable and caring…She comes from a family in which dogs were always a prominent feature of their family life.”
15. Derek & Solip "Stella" T.
“Derek and Stella took great care of my pup. Oliver can be nervous with new folks but forgot all about me when he was with them. Thank you for all the great pics and updates!”
16. Jesse & Ana M.
“Jesse & Ana were amazing dog sitters for our Golden Retriever, Woody foe the week! We all had a meet and greet with Woody at a local park which was initiated by Ana & Jesse prior to them taking Woody. This put our mind at ease and bought us a level of comfort and trust. Woody absolutely loved his stay with Jesse & Anna with a lot of walks, park visits and cuddles. We had fantastic daily communication with photo updates. I could not recommend them both highly enough, we will be using Ana & Jesse again for future dog sitting with Woody, he absolutely loved it!!”
17. Rajni B.
“Rajni was so great with Mash! She gave us regular updates and was always in touch. He had the best time and looking at their pictures, we were truly worried if he’d like to come back home! We’d absolutely love to work with Rajni again.”
18. Yijie W.
“Yijie was amazing!!! I adopted a very elderly dog who isn’t great with the toilet and needed to see the vet regularly, and Yijie was so accomodating and understanding! Definitely need to hire her”
19. Brandon J.
“Brandon was amazing! He took care of my 10lb dog for 10 days and I couldn't be more satisfied. Brandon is very communicative, flexible, and kind. I knew my dog was in good hands and I was able to travel without any worry. I'll definitely find Brandon again when I travel next time!”
20. Shruti D.
“Shruti was very friendly and communicative while we were away for a weekend. I would definitely ask her to watch Luna again. Luna definitely appreciated all the work hangouts as well as sun bathing in the patio!”

Which San Francisco parks should I visit with my dog?
Looking for a place to blow off some steam with your pup? San Francisco has some truly incredible dog parks. Bernal Heights Dog Park is a scenic 35-acre, off-leash dog park that provides amazing panoramic views of the city. Fort Funston Dog Park is a fun place to visit, but keep in mind it's also frequented by horseback riders, gliders, and bicyclists. This next park is notable for being a resting place for hundreds of species of migrating birds, which is reason enough to visit! It's Pine Lake Dog Park, and it's also full of great hiking trails and a dedicated off-leash section of the park for your dog. Located in the Diamond Heights neighborhood, Glen Canyon Dog Park is 35 acres of beautiful wooded trails and canyons. For the ultimate in dog-friendly recreation, be sure to check out Duboce Dog Park. Dog walkers love this park, and there's even an annual DogFest held there to celebrate man's best friend.
