Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Anna was an excellent sitter - she took great care to understand all of the intricacies of taking care of the house and cats, asked lots of questions, and arrived on time and ready for the sit. During the trip, she checked in with updates, and upon returning home, left the space tidy and clean. The cats were happy and healthy, and seemed to have had a great time during the sit. Thanks Anna!
Sharon and Milton were outstanding sitters and if I could give more than 5 stars I certainly would. Reliable, communicative, helpful, self sufficient and tidy, they took great care of my home. More importantly my cats were lovingly cared for and extremely content when we returned. I highly recommend Sharon and Milton without reservation and hope to have them return in the future.
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
Great pet sitter - took perfect care of our cat and our home. They were super communicate leading up to and during the sit and left our apartment in great shape. I'd absolutely recommend them to any future sitters!
Sabre is a sweet, honest person who stepped up at the very last moment (after the prior sitter flaked out) to watch our dog and cat for 17 days. When there were a couple minor accidents, she informed us of them right away. One involved a burnt pan (easy to do if you’re not familiar with an induction stovetop) which she offered to replace. Sabre also washed the towels and sheets, and made up the bed before we got home. The yard was pooper scooped and litter box was clean. Pets seemed well-cared for. When she had to leave town for several hours one day, she made sure to arrange for our neighbor take care of the pets. Additionally, I appreciated how she didn’t assume that it would be ok to bring her cat. When we found out she was going to keep her cat in a kennel during her stay here, we told her she could bring him which worked out fine. Overall, I would confidently recommend Sabre to watch your pets and house.
After seeing the numerous positive reviews, I knew Cung would be an easygoing and professional cat sitter and house guest, and he was :-) Easy communication, prompt updates and clear concern for Boz & Artie's wellbeing, and pictures of cozying up on the couch together all made our time away secure and stress free. Upon returning home, the cats were chill and the apt was left spotless, as though he hadn't even been there.
Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.
Denae and Burl were absolutely fabulous house/pet sitters for 4 weeks, Dec 2022- Jan 23. They are very friendly and intelligent, caring towards the animals (2 cats and 1 lively dog), and left our home clean and tidy. It all went very, very smoothly. It was a pleasure to deal with such nice people. We have invited them back whenever they want and hope the rest of their exploratory mission is a great success. I would be pleased to be contacted if anyone needs a further reference.
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
Kristi was an exceptional house / pet sitter and we appreciate her being so flexible as were not sure how long our vacation was going to be. She was prompt, courteous, and even drove up the weekend before to meet with us. She took great care of our house and our dog snd cats loved her. I would highly recommended her.

Mira and her fabulous team have been taking care of our dogs Benny and Louie for years. They have always been able to accommodate our requests- even if last minute - and every day we receive an update and photos of the pups. My dogs love them like family. We would never go anywhere else!
Great service for pet sitting! Mira the owner of this business is an amazing person. My Kotok is happy! Any time we go somewhere we know that he will be taken care of.
Have used paradise for any trip I've taken over the past few years. All of the sitters have done an excellent job. Best pricing I've seen. Great communication and detailed updates daily with pictures of my cats. Always comfortable knowing they are getting great care and attention while we're gone. Big thanks to your team!
I cannot recommend this pet care service. They were entrusted with the care of my beloved dog, but tragically, my dog died while in their care. This devastating experience has left me heartbroken and angry. I advise other pet owners to be extremely cautious and seek alternative options for pet care.
Amazing team that takes care of my cats often when i am traveling. They are super caring and always communicate perfectly!
I hired Paradise Pet Care to stop in and check on/feed my two cats while I was out of town over the holidays. Mira, the owner, was wonderfully communicative, professional, and the process was seamless. Kim, our sitter, did such a great job with the cats and sent pictures and updates each time she stopped by. I felt very at ease knowing they were being well taken care of! This was my first time hiring a company to help with pet care and I will absolutely use them again!
Paradise Pet Care is amazing! My husband works from home and so our dog is rarely alone for long periods of time. However, he was going out of town for a week, so we hired Paradise Pet Care for daily walks. Mira, the owner, was so helpful and responsive; Christina, our walker, was beyond amazing. Our dog, who can be a bit protective, loved her right off the bat. I loved the photo and text updates she sent everyday. It gave me such reassurance. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves there pets! Will definitely being using them again in the future. Thanks ladies!
My dog (and I) have been completely satisfied clients for two years and counting. Mira and her team have *ALWAYS* been graciously accommodating, professional and genuinely love what they do. This makes it extremely hard to choose anyone and anywhere else to care for my Prince. We both can't thank them all enough for continuing to deliver such phenomenal service even through challenging adversities!
My first time using a pet sitter ever for my new kitty Cookie - I was nervous! The owner Mira was super helpful every step of the way. Alex our sitter was amazing! She took great care of my baby and sent pics and updates everyday. Your fur babies will be in great care with these people!
Mira and her team at Paradise Pet Care are the best in San Diego County! Countless times Mira has watched over our dogs Tanner and Jack. She has always updated me with the cutest pictures from their walks or play time. Never have I seen such love and attention bestowed upon the animals they care for. You can be assured that Paradise Pet Care will treat your "kids" as you would yourself, heck, maybe even better!! No complaints whatsoever, these guys are awesome!
WONDERFUL boarding. We contacted Pacific Beach Pet Care on the fly for boarding that same day and they were fantastic in supporting our needs. From the moment our needy mini dachshund walked into their facility they made her feel at home and happy! Highly recommend their services. Thank you Pacific Beach Pet Care for taking such good care of our baby Pebbles!!
I cannot say enough amazing things about my experience with PB Pet Care. Vinny and Shirine took care of both my dogs as if they were their own. They played, did photo shoots, and on the nights they stayed over, they were treated like family. They are very responsive to text communication and flexible with dates and times, as needed. Any time we are back in SoCal, I will definitely be using PB Pet Care!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Pacific Beach Pet Care is the best! They provide individualized care for each dog’s needs. I have used them for two very different dogs. One dog does not get along with other dogs. He had his own area dedicated for dogs with special needs. My other dog loves to play with other dogs although he’s skittish. He is able to socialize with other dogs while feeling safe. I always feel comfortable leaving my dog at Pacific Beach Pet Care, especially since they are AKC certified and can provide dogs with care in a specialized way.
Highly recommend PB petcare for your doggy daycare and boarding needs! I can tell that our pup loves Shirine and Vinnie so much and always has a great time, I always feel safe and comfortable leaving him there. I can tell they are helping him develop and learn too, and they give us great tips on training him and managing puppy behaviors.
Pacific beach pet care is the absolute best!! When I found shirine and Vince they changed my world I knew I was always leaving my golden doodle in the best hands having gone to many other boarders in San Diego it was such a gift to find people who treat your pet like their own no crates plenty of room to play and they are always so flexible and responsive and delightful to talk to most importantly so much love every time we leave our pup we know he is in the best of hands! I cant speak more highly of pacific beach pet care we are so grateful for them they are the absolute best!!
I love PB pet care ! Vinnie and Shirine are amazing professionals and they love Luna ! . They literally go above and beyond for Luna’s care. Luna gets to be a dog for the day and I get to be at work stress free knowing that’s she’s in great hands. The drop off and pick up process is quick and easy. The response time is right away and the care for these dogs is like one big happy family in the most convenient area of pacific beach.
I came to Shirine and Vinny with my husband for two of our pups now and I can’t say enough good things about how well they treat our little babies. First we used to bring our older dog, Violet (husky mix), for daycare on a daily for over 6 months. During that time, Vinny and Shirine helped us shape her into the amazing dog she is today, by giving us A TON of training guidance, tips and even training her when they found some time during normal daycare hours 😍 More recently we took our relationship with Shirine and Vinny a step further with our new puppy Silo. Knowing that Shirine is a FANTASTIC dog trainer we decided to bring him in for the boarding program, where Shirine took him in for over 4 weeks and worked day in and day out with him on multiple basic and advanced commands. He’s at a place training wise that we never even dreamed off for him to be as an adult dog, let alone a 4 month old puppy. We can’t wait to see the fantastic dog he will become and nothing of this would be possible without the incredible work done by Shirine on his boarding 🙌🏼 In summary, for ANYTHING DOG RELATED Pacific Beach Petcare has got your back! Whether it be basic daycare for a day, weekend boarding, training, you name it!
Vinny and Shirine are absolutely fantastic! We’ve been leaving our dogs with them for the last five years and they are always extremely accommodating and take excellent care of our doggies. Even after we moved out of PB, we still bring our dogs out to them because we know they’ll be well taken care of and they’re fairly priced. We also have referred them to a few friends and they’ve had great experiences as well.
Vincent and Shirene and Pacific Beach Pet Care are awesome. I've been taking my Golden (Chloe) there for over three years. She loves the care she gets and playing with the other doggies - especially Goldens! Great environment for dogs to play in. They are very accommodating with last minute drop offs when necessary. I highly recommend them!
I can’t speak highly enough about this place. The owners genuinely care concerned about every animal that comes through their doors as if it is their own I have had instances where I needed to bring a dog that belongs to clients or what not from my company and they have been available with short notice and their prices were remarkable the care & concern they show each animal is just wonderful. Definitely will use them again.
