This is probably the best pet sitting you could have in all North County. My cat was really having a hard time with us gone and had stopped eating, which is scary, but the pet sitter (Heather!) noticed right away and hid some treats in his bowl - that did the trick! They also will do things like litter box changing, plant watering, and taking in your mail. These people really care about animals and understand how to take care of them. They're like pet experts.

Scott and his team were very professional from the initial contact through the pet sitting of our cat Mustache. Melissa who looked after him, came to visit every day over a 3-week period. She provided text updates with his well-being, photos and videos. You could tell when we returned home, that he had been very well looked after and loved.

At the risk of being redundant with all the other glowing reviews, Scott and his team are the very best. Accommodating beyond belief and a genuine love for animals. When SDPC is on call, you don't have to worry about a thing! I'd give 6 stars if Yelp would let me...

Scott and Christine have both taken care of Leilani for me while on trips. They do a fantastic job! They stay longer than the stated 30 minutes and send me multiple pictures every day. I trust them completely and know my fur baby is in good hands!

We felt Sami and our house were in good hands, so we could really enjoy our time away. We are so glad we found this group! Scott and his crew of dog walkers and caregivers are extremely professional and completely dedicated to providing top-notch care. SD Pet Concierge provided overnight care and daytime dog-walking/playtime for our golden doodle puppy twice, first when she was 4 months old, and then again at 6 months. Both times, we couldn't have been happier with SD's service. We received picture and video updates of Sami every day and were very happy with the care she received. Scott plans for every contingency (including things we did not think of!) and asks dozens of questions about your pet so that the care, playtime, and walks they provide are just like yours. Each time, we felt Sami and our house were in good hands, so we could really enjoy our time away. I trust them completely and know my fur baby is in good hands!

“Scott and Christine tag-teamed to take care of my two cats during two lengthy trips, and were great. My cats loved them and I was happy knowing they were getting great care and that all the other vacation tasks were being handled professionally. I think my cats may like them better than me! I highly recommend Scott and Christine!”

“Scott is amazing. I've used Rover and other iterations of that service, and Scott blows them out of the water. I've never met someone more dedicated to providing quality service and care for my dog. Truly, Scott treats my nutso German Short Haired Pointer Eloise as a member of his extended dog family. His walkers and caregivers do an excellent job with her, sending me picture updates and making sure she gets all the love and exercise she needs while I am at work or out of town. Honestly, I thank my lucky stars I ran into Scott when I moved to San Diego. I don't know what I would do without him.”

“I highly recommend SD Pet Concierge to all pet parents in San Diego. The thought of leaving my cat, Lucy, when I travel definitely made me uneasy. Finding people I trust is of utmost importance. I'm so grateful that I was referred to Scott this summer… When I travel, they provide daily updates with pictures and I have total peace of mind knowing Lucy is receiving love and amazing care.”

“Scott is AMAZING!!! We left our dog after having knee surgery and had many special care needs. After coming home from a week, she was happy, calm and had no separation problems… I don't know of anyone that gives your dog the time and quality of care!!!”

“The last time we left town for the weekend, Scott asked if we would be okay having one another one of his team (Joanna) take care of our pups... However, prior to confirming Joanna, Scott personally brought her over to our house to ensure that we were comfortable with her…Joanna was wonderful, personable and clearly an animal lover. The dogs responded to her right away. Our dogs are our “kids” and knowing we have someone at home with them who is keeping them safe and giving them lots of love allows us to truly relax and enjoy our time away!

“If you need a pet sitter… THIS IS YOUR GUY! As much as I love my kitty (12 pound, eight-year-old black domestic), he can be a handful and SD Pet Concierge’s Mamiko had him purring from the moment they met. It allowed my boyfriend and I to enjoy five days away without a worry. Every day, we received detailed updates along with pictures – she even watered our plants! Again… five stars.”

"As recent transplants to the San Diego area, we were in need of finding good pet sitters for our two German Shepherds. SD Pet Concierge came highly recommended and knowing Scott from previous work life, it was a simple decision to reach out. We couldn't be happier with the service and care that is given to our dogs. Scott is attentive, thorough and always follows through – and amazingly trustworthy which is so important when trusting your pets (and your home) to someone.”

“Scott is amazing – so loving and conscientious to dogs and responsive to people. I used to worry about going out of town and not been able to take my dogs with us, especially our pit/boxer rescue with incredible separation anxiety who pulls so hard on walks he could tow a car. Finding someone I could trust to take care of my babies was a huge challenge. Since finding Scott, I don't have to worry anymore… Scott really loves dogs and it shows. And, they love him back!...I can't recommend him highly enough!”
Lottie S.,

“We have had many sitters throughout the years, but Scott is definitely one of the best…. Our two pups immediately took a liking to him and trusted him which is a great sign for us. Our dogs are a bit special as they need a lot of attention when it comes to exercise and they also have dietary needs. They are on a specific diet with lots of additional supplementation and, despite there being a learning curve, Scott was easily able to handle their needs. We would highly recommend him for someone who is looking for the best possible fit for their beloved pets!”

"Scott is AMAZING! I tell everyone he truly is an animal whisperer. I have 2 dogs, Stella, my pitbull is terrified of everything due to a really rough start in life. She is especially terrified of men. Within an hour of meeting Scott she was creeping up to him and licking his hand. This just doesn't happen with Stella. When he stayed with them he sent me photos of Stella laying with him on the couch while he was petting her...Amazing! Thank you Scott for loving my dogs as much as we do!"

"I've known Scott for several years and have used his services over the last year. He is the most professional, honest, trustworthy and good hearted person I know and he has an absolute gift with animals. My Soft Coated Wheaton Terrier is a fairly sensitive and anxious dog. It was very stressful for me to leave him for work or personal trips but Scott was so good with him. I received picture texts regularly to keep me updated and let me know he was happy and safe. I would absolutely recommend Scott to anyone looking for pet care. Once you meet him you'll know right away you found a trusted pet sitter."

"Scott is the best with my dog Finnegan! I have had a few people take Finn for his daily walks but no one like Scott. He spends extra time with Finn when he needs special feeding & medicine. Finn gets so excited when Scott shows up. I can't say enough about how happy Finn & I are with the service we get...you will not be disappointed! :)"

“My husband and I have been looking for the perfect dog walker/sitter for years, but never felt comfortable enough with anyone to actually go for it. We were provided a referral to Scott through a coworker and I'm so grateful. I can tell that our dog, Jedi, is so comfortable with Scott. Now when I leave for work, Jedi is already at the door waiting for Scott to arrive in a couple of hours.”

“Scott at SD Pet Concierge is amazing. The dogs love him…we love him. He took such great care of two Cavalier King Charles spaniel puppies and send us pictures of them while we were away. It was great to get updates and see that the pups were happy and doing well.”

“SD Concierge is at the top of the game when it comes to pet sitters. Five stars in every respect. Scott and his team are reliable, fantastic, trustworthy… mere words cannot describe how great this business truly is. The team was flexible, great communication, fantastic at sending consistent photo updates. In addition, when unexpected circumstances came up, Scott and his team took full responsibility, showed great care for the dog safety and comfort.”

“Scott has been wonderful to our two dogs, Finnegan and Roscoe. It's nice we have someone who takes such good care of our dogs when we are away. They love seeing him whenever he comes over. I would recommend Scott to anyone who has an animal. He’s been fantastic!”

“We have two Savannah cats and one of them can be very challenging to deal with. Scott, however, does a fantastic job with both of them. He is patient and loving in his dealings with them... On occasion, he spends the night and just knowing the cats are taken care of by him gives us great comfort.”

"We are so fortunate to have met Scott! Our Duke is overjoyed when he gets to hang with his buddy Scott. We have used Scott for overnight and walking services...we couldn't be more pleased with his service. Our Duke loves him so much he practically tackles him as soon as he walks through the door! Book your appointment now you won't be disappointed!!!"

"Scott and his team are amazing. Text or call he always answers. He is very thorough and takes his business seriously. We found him on yelp and looked at a lot of things, one being price. His prices are great and definitely not over charged. Two, he comes to your home to meet you and your animals. I think this is super important just in case one doesn't get along or if your animal needs to ease up to a stranger. Me and my boyfriend have two cats and we feel that when Scott comes they are always in good hands. I have used him 3 times now and feel safe having him in my home and with my animals. He also sends pics and updates each visit."
Thank you!!

“I live in Boston, but I’m frequently at my condo in Del Mar. I asked the people at Dexter's Deli for a dog walker referral for my then one-year-old Westie named Izzy. They gave me Scott's name. I contacted Scott and he came over to meet with us (including Izzy). He arranged his schedule so he could tend to her the next day. I was so moved by how passionate, loving and responsible Scott is concerning his work with dogs. Izzy immediately jumped on his lap. It’s clear that Scott goes out of his way to make his clients feel comfortable. He sends wonderful photos of Izzy and notes about their interactions. Izzy is an adorable, but stubborn and headstrong little Westie and I really appreciate Scott’s enthusiasm and observations. I make sure to get in touch with Scott before every trip so that Izzy can wiggle her way into his schedule.”
