Dog Walkers in San Geronimo

San Geronimo is a remote community in the San Geronimo Valley area of Marin County. This rural town is surrounded by several preserves that allow dogs. When you need to get professional care for your pooch, you'll find a veterinarian in Lagunitas, located about two miles to the west.

Just north of town, you and your canine pal can explore Roy's Redwoods Preserve. This 293-acre facility has a few nature trails that wander through meadows and stands of redwoods mixed with bay trees. If you want to get a panoramic view of the area, hike along Dickson Ridge Fire Road. Dogs are welcome to join you if you keep them under control and you clean up after them.

Take Fido to Cascade Canyon Open Space Preserve and enjoy a hike through nature. Follow the Cascade Fire Road to Cascade Falls Trail through the woods to see some magnificent falls. Dogs can come with you, but they need to be kept on a leash that's no longer than six feet. Make sure you bring water and waste bags with you.

Go for a hike up one of the highest ridges in Marin County with your fur baby. Head to Loma Alta Open Space Preserve and climb Smith Ridge Fire Road or Sunrise Fire Road to the peak. From here, you'll be able to see pawtastic views of the Bay Area. Dogs can join you but must be under your control at all times. 

Dogs and their owners have ample opportunity to get out and explore nature in the areas around San Geronimo.
