About Cole Valley
What pet sitting in Cole Valley actually looks like
Cole Valley is the small neighborhood between the Inner Sunset and the Haight. a 6-block-by-6-block residential pocket with Cole Street as the cafe-and-shop spine, Mount Sutro looming above, and Stanyan Street giving direct access to Golden Gate Park's east entrance and Kezar Stadium.
Cole Valley sitter inventory is small but tight, with high repeat-booking loyalty. Edwardian flats and small Victorian homes dominate; yards are uncommon but Mount Sutro and Golden Gate Park provide the off-leash and trail variety. The breed mix favors active medium-to-large dogs needing real exercise.
