I've literally spent days looking through listings on all the usual sites (eg airbnb, craigslist, roomorama, vrbo, homeaway) but can't find anywhere so does anyone have any fresh ideas they could give me?

I have been volunteering in Thailand for the past year and have adopted two stray dogs who I will be taking to San Francisco with me for 2-4 months from February 8th. The problem is, they love the outdoors and as this will already be a massive change for them, they will need a yard to go in and out as they please.

We'd like to be as central as possible (Mission, inner sunset, Nopa, Haight, cole valley or noe valley) which is preferably close to a park and we'd like to spend around $2000-2500 though we could stretch this to $3000 if the place is perfect.

If anyone can help me out it would be so appreciated. I have been working non-stop here in terrible conditions and all I need now is a bit of comfort for me, my partner and two new dogs.

Any ideas anyone? Thanks!

Is there a reason why it has to be in SanFrancisco? Im asking because in SanFrancisco there is rent control and finding a place is not easy at all. Have you thought about surrounding areas and commuting into SanFran via bart or bus? By doing so it may increase your options of finding an ideal place.
