About Outer Richmond

Dog sitting in Outer Richmond, what it actually looks like

The Outer Richmond is the foggy ocean-side neighborhood west of the Inner Richmond, ending at Ocean Beach. Lands End's coastal trail, Sutro Heights Park's clifftop views, and the Sutro Baths ruins anchor the dramatic Pacific edge. Single-family homes and small Edwardian flats; quietest of central SF.

Outer Richmond sitters skew older family and outdoor-active. The breed mix favors active breeds: Labradors, Goldendoodles, Vizslas. Ocean Beach (off-leash on much of the southern stretch) and Lands End provide the dramatic coastal walking variety.
