Your pet's home while you're away
I run Paw At Home, a private in-home pet service in North County San Diego. After losing my beloved 18-year-old schnauzer in 2021, I knew I wanted to share that love with other pets and their families.
Paw at Home was founded with one idea in mind: your pet's home away from home. Even when you're away, your fur baby deserves the same warmth, routine, and attention they get at home. Small group. Real walks. Genuine care.
With years of experience caring for senior dogs, medical needs, and everything in between, you're in good hands!
Your pet stays in our private home, not a kennel. Max 3 dogs and 2 cats at a time, each with their own dedicated space, 3 walks a day, and daily photo updates.
From $50/day (dogs) · $30/day (cats)
See what boarding clients say →We come to your home! 60 minutes per visit: feeding, fresh water, litter cleaning, a walk, playtime, and a full photo update. Medication care available.
From $60/visit (dogs) · $30/visit (cats)
See what drop-in clients say →From leash manners, separation anxiety, potty training and managing reactivity, we understand pet behavior and help you and your dog feel calm and confident. Stay tuned!
$50 / 1 hr session per dog

Bobo & Maru
Jac.
"Bobo is 22 years old and needs injections twice a day — both dogs' meds need to be ground into powder. They handled everything with so much care. It's really rare to find such a dedicated sitter."



Pooh
Po K.
"We received pictures and updates every morning when we woke up, and Pooh looked absolutely happy. He honestly didn't even want to go home! Our boy was definitely on vacation too!"

Goody
Kelly L.
"We've been working with Sammi for a couple of years and trust her completely. She handles Goody's daily eye drops with so much patience. Our baby always comes home happy and loved."

Mochi

Johnny
