We have one dog, two cats and a hermit crab - none are special needs. We live in a coastal part of san diego minutes from downtown, SeaWorld, and the ocean. We are in the line of the San Diego Airport flight path, so it can be noisy at times, FYI if you need quiet. It's usually not too bad with windows closed, but it might be hot in July and we don't have AC.
This is my first house sitter request, so I'm not sure what else to say.
