Pet-friendly holiday rentals in San Mateo

Open yet cozy place with great internet connection, fully stocked amenities, and super-responsive hosts. Private yet accessible. Pacifica is a hidden gem that's close to everything. This is a great place for vacation, stay-cation, and/or work trips. Definitely plan on returning.

Jennifer was a great host! She was super responsive and proactive when we messaged her throughout our stay. Our pup loved the dog door to the yard and walks at Thornton (2 min drive). It was easy to get to the city (quick drive to BART or driving).

We didn't want to stay in a hotel and we had our family dog with us. Jason's place provided us accessibility at an affordable rate. The place was clean and had a small fridge. Sandwich shop on the corner has amazing donuts and food.

Awesome space in a very versatile area. Wish I could have stayed longer because it was a great base for all the things I was looking to do in the area. Will stay again.

Our family absolutely loved this home. The beds were comfy and gave us rest after busy days in the Bay. The host was responsive. Check-in instructions were easy. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt safe. We would love to stay here again during future Bay visits.

Absolutely enjoyed! The home was so welcoming and cozy, a picturesque beach cottage. The outdoor space was so beautiful and peaceful. Great location that is quiet and close proximity to the beach and trails. Guliz was very friendly and responsive. You can tell a lot of thought and care went into the home. Would absolutely recommend!

We loved our stay! The house gets great light and has a very nice view of the lamas right across the street and of the sunset in the evenings. The neighborhood is quiet and the yard was perfect for our dogs. The host was very responsive and accommodating. We will definitely stay here again!

Wonderful place and good energy. We would return!

Our stay at Lori and Mike’s place was absolutely fantastic, and Lori truly made it unforgettable. While Mike was away on a trip, Lori went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed—and more. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel so welcome. She was warm, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive without ever being overbearing. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her guests and takes pride in creating a comfortable, personalized experience. She checked in with us just enough to make sure we were all set and shared amazing local tips that really made our trip extra special. Her kindness, attention to detail, and friendly energy made all the difference. We couldn’t have asked for a better host. Thank you so much, Lori—you’re truly one of a kind!

This was the most peaceful and beautiful space I have ever been to. The view from the balcony was gorgeous. All the greenery and the deers and random dog was super gorgeous and felt really at home. The hot tub was amazing and super relaxing. Robert was very kind and responsive, Received a phone call about all the lights, hot tub, close trails, and recommended spots!! Super helpful and very kind gesture. Would 100% go back to this place

Me and my girlfriend needed a little getaway and this was perfect. There was a small ant problem and Maria had someone there to take care of it within an hour. Would highly recommend.

Our family had the most incredible weekend at Gina's beautiful home! First of all, a HEATED POOL makes all the difference, huge plus! We loved spending time in the backyard with so many beautiful outdoor areas to hangout with family, including your own private dock with a kayak! We were a little bummed the outdoor firepit wasn't working because we loved being outside so much but maybe next time. We hope to come back soon! We loved the big wooden table and big cozy couch for all 8 of us to enjoy time eating meals and playing games together! It was super convenient to have the grocery store just 6 minutes down the road as well. She was also extremely accommodating which made the stay even better!

I can’t say enough great things about my stay (over a month long) at Lola’s place! It was absolutely beautiful, tranquil and had a huge yard for my two dog to run around and explore. Lola was always very responsive and friendly. Great escape from the city life but only moments away from Redwood City and Menlo Park. Will absolutely stay here again if the opportunity arises. Don’t miss this rare gem!

It has been a lovely and very comfortable stay - very spacious living room and bedrooms, in-unit washing and drying machine, and great location - close to Safeway, Trader Joes and the Caltrain station. Would definitely come back.

Melodie truly goes above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. She thought of things like Contact Lens Solution! This was the first time i’ve ever seen that in a care kit. I also can’t speak more to kindness as when she allowed me to stay an extra hour because I was having a hard time parting ways with this new found peace and comfort. Then I added a second hour and simply felt like extended family at that point. The heated saltwater pool under the blue sky surrounded by chirping birds and nature was extremely soothing to my spirit. I shall return.

Serene is the perfect word to describe this property. It was refreshing and quiet. We would love to come back

The place was great, clean, and perfectly met our needs! I would suggest putting some instructions for the coffee maker that looked very fancy but intimidating. All in all the place was what we needed and will be staying there again when we visit next!

Souhi’s place is great - very clean, modern, and had all the basic necessities. Sitting out on the deck with the fire pit on cooler nights was lovely.

Our stay at Petra's house was truly delightful. She was a gracious and responsive host, and her clean, cozy home, nestled in a beautiful San Carlos neighborhood, provided everything we could have wished for.

I was surprised to see that the house looked bigger on the inside than in the pictures. A beautiful home that has everything you will need for a comfortable stay. We will definitely book it again.

This cottage is a little gem in a desirable part of the city. The upstairs sleeping loft is spacious and well laid out with plenty of closet and drawer space. We loved the thoughtful touches like high-quality coffee, a bottle of wine, extra sheets and towels, and attractive decor and books. Host Johnny was very responsive to our questions about the heating unit and fixed it right away. Not a problem for the physically agile, but guests should be aware that the outdoor side entrance is maybe 24 inches wide, and that the steep loft stairs are necessary to navigate to use the bathroom. Overall, a wonderful stay with a kind and thoughtful host!

The second time staying in this cozy and peaceful place, this time for our extended family visiting Belmont. My 4 year old nephew and his family really enjoyed the stay. Not only the inside (which stayed cool even though it was early summer), but also the sunny backyard was really great. Lacey was responsive for any questions they had. Thank you for hosting us again!

absolutely loved the stay. so relaxing and fun. always wanted to do it

Location was good, the house was super clean and well kept. The backyard was awesome. If you are looking to spend some time outdoors, this is an excellent place for you. It was confusing to get the lock opened when we were checking in. I wish there were more specific instructions to open the door lock rather than just simply providing the code. Otherwise everything was excellent!
