Doggy Daycare in San Diego

A real home for your dog while you are at work

San Diego is one of the most dog-friendly cities in the country, blessed with beaches, canyon trails, and year-round outdoor weather. The trade-off: long commutes, expensive apartments, and limited yard space in many neighborhoods. In-home doggy daycare on Petme connects you with verified sitters across La Jolla, Pacific Beach, North Park, Hillcrest, and Encinitas so your dog spends the workday at a real home with real walks instead of crated at a commercial facility.

Petme charges San Diego pet owners 0% commission. The daily rate is the full price. Cashback is credited automatically after each completed day. Every booking includes up to $22,000 through the Protection Plan, important coverage if your dog ever needs VCA Mission Bay or VSH San Diego during a day of care.
