Planning a vacation in sunny San Diego? Don’t leave your four-legged family member behind—bring them along for the fun! At Bluewater Vacation Homes, we know that pets are part of the family, and we offer a selection of pet friendly vacation homes so everyone, paws included, can enjoy a memorable getaway together.
When you travel with your pet, you’re not just avoiding expensive kennel fees or the guilt of leaving them behind—you’re creating shared memories. Whether it’s morning walks on the beach, patio brunches with a view, or evening sunsets from your private deck, your pet can be part of every moment.
But not every rental is created equal. A pet friendly vacation home means more than just “pets allowed.” It means access to outdoor spaces, walkable neighborhoods, nearby dog parks, and an interior layout that makes your pet feel just as welcome as you do.
At Bluewater Vacation Homes, we’ve made it easy to find the perfect home that fits your style—and welcomes your pet. From cozy beach bungalows to spacious bayside estates, we offer pet friendly options in some of San Diego’s most scenic and walkable areas, including:
Mission Beach
