This review is long overdue!!! My boyfriend and I moved to San Diego in 2023 with our two kitties,…read moreknowing no one in the area, and See Spot Sit has been a lifesaver ever since. There have been multiple times we've had to leave town at the last minute and needed kitty care, and they've never once declined, even during holidays. The See Spot Sit team is amazing about sending updates while we're away, including sending photos of our cats, which is always so nice and reassuring. We've used them about a dozen times now and have had zero complaints. They go above and beyond, taking care of our cats in ways we didn't even ask for, and we're so grateful. If you need a reliable, affordable, loving cat sitter in San Diego, See Spot Sit is it!

Another five-star rating for Cruz! She's responsible, professional and warm. I was impressed by the…read morethorough, neatly written notes she took during the initial 'interview' with our two dogs as well as the relaxed way she introduced them to the others she had in her care during that first visit. She didn't make a snap judgment about our 94-pound GSD-mix, which I especially appreciated given how many people assume a correlation between a dog's size and aggressive tendencies. She went the extra mile -- actually more like 2 -- to pick up the dogs from my place of work one day because I was concerned about being late for a staff meeting. And she regularly texted us photos she took of him and his little sidekick during the day -- a very thoughtful touch. Four paws up for Stockton Dogs!

Cruz is professional, reliable, and not to mention, super sweet! She is consistent about sending us pictures of him when we're away. I can tell that she truly loves her job & her clients; she even bought Ace dog toys to take home! We will continue to book with her every time we travel. Ace has stayed with Cruz multiple times and now when she comes to pick him up, he runs straight to her car without looking back! Cruz takes him to the coffee shop, on errands, and out on walks when we are out of town and we are truly grateful for the amount of mental and physical stimulation he gets every day he's in her care. Thanks again Stockton Dogs!

Fido's Following is such a lifesaver!! I travel for business regularly and can ALWAYS count on…read morethese folks to take care of my 2 dogs. They are so professional and reliable. The best experience I've had and I've tried a several options. If you're in San Diego and need a dog walker, I highly recommend this company. Irene, the owner, is such a pleasure to work with.

I was recently thinking of the things I was thankful for in my life and realized that something…read morethat ranked high was Irene, the owner and operator of Fidos Following. Thus, I figured it was about time I wrote a review. Before I continue, note that there is no Fido...at least not that I'm aware of. Seriously, Irene has been a blessing in mine and my dogs' lives. She has been taking care of my pups for months now. Initially, I wasn't sure if regular service was something I could afford but with the care she gives them, I realize you can't put a price on improved quality of life for my pups and for me. I know my dogs are in good hands when they're with Irene. Some examples of her awesomeness: she's very easy to get a hold of, my dogs run up to her and get excited when they see her, she goes above what's required, she reads a lot about animals so knows more than the average pet owner, she's very amiable, easy going and direct. Also, I love coming home to see my dogs and on top of that, get a journal entry from Irene about how they were that day. Conclusion: once you joing the Following, it'll make your animals happy and in turn, make you happy. :-)

I highly recommend this service, especially Kara. When I first met her I could tell that she was…read moregenuine and certainly loves animals with all of her heart. Animals are sensitive souls and they will pick up on that quality in a person immediately. They need that calming when the stress of having their main family member(s) gone ensues. My cat Tucker is a shy guy but he warmed up to her faster than my own friends haha! My favorite aspects about Kara are the fact that she is reliable, trustworthy, exercises Tuck and gives me little text updates about his behavior while I'm gone (complete with multiple photos). Thanks a million for everything Kara!

He is amazing with my dog--the only time that my dog doesn't care that I'm leaving him behind is when he is with Doug. Doug is so great, he sends me updates while I'm away to let me know how he's eating (my dog is a very picky eater) and sends me pictures and videos of Jameson playing with the other dogs. I'm moving out of state soon and I'm so bummed for my pup to be losing Doug. Thank you, Doug, for everything!

We lost our beloved 'Molly' in Doug's care. His service came highly recommended through a relative…read more We were to leave town to visit family in Los Angeles and trusted Doug with our furry family member's life for three days. On the second day, we received a call saying there had been a dog attack involving Molly; that one of the other dogs that was also being boarded, had attaked her. Though Molly was taken to ER for her injuries, she did not survive the attack. We lost our angel in Doug's care. We discovered that it was one of Doug's own pets that had attacked Molly. Though we reported the attack to the police and the Humane Society. Doug had argued that his dog was fighting in self deffence. Our Molly was a 6 lb. Yorkie that was a service pet for senior care facilities. Doug's dog is a 78 lb. Lab. Really !?!? One of his assistants felt horrible about what happened and mentioned similar events as happening in the past. The staff member had also said most of the possitive reviews on Yelp are from mock accounts that Doug and his staff posted. Please do your own research before trusting you pet with him.

The team goes above and beyond making sure not only that the cats are well take care of, but they also gather our mail, have taken the garbage cans in on trash day and tidy up inside when the cats make a mess. Our three cats feel comfortable and safe with their Paws Play sitters. I appreciate and look forward to the photos they send with every visit and detailed updates. They communicate via a portal with all the cats' details and instructions uploaded + billing is clearly outlined and easily processed. Thank you Jessica, Erik and your entire team for taken care of our cats...whether it's an extended holiday or a short two-day getaway. We know they're always in good hands!

She was fantastic, even brought Cody a bag of toys and treats! Needless to say, they are top notch, professional, and responsive. We use an app, that allows us to get daily updates and photos and messages about our fur baby. They are always punctual and caring and I can not recommend them enough. Cats and dogs, it is not easy to find a cat sitter in San Diego, we no longer could depend on family and friends, so this was a huge weight off our shoulders, now that we have Paws Play, we can go away whenever we want and know that our cat will be well cared for. Thank you Jessica and Erik! We highly recommend them for your fur babies!
