ok, but an illegal VRBO per the town
We rented this because of its location and it being listed as a dog friendly property. There was a whit couch with an ill fitting covert to keep the dogs on (so we layered it in towels because a white couch is not dog friendly). We had an incident (outside of anyone's direct control) where a squatter broke into an un-rented home next door and the police told us to go inside until they were done entering that house with weapons drawn to extract the person, which is exactly what happened. We then had someone stop by from the City of San Diego Building and Land Use Enforcement stating this was an illegal short term rental and handed us paperwork to put inside. We didn't feel comfortable leaving the dogs or our belongings alone after all of this so we had a local relative visit a few afternoons so we could get out an explore the local area and while she was there. On our last day we received 3 phone calls, 2 voicemail message, an email, a text message and a VRBO message all within 20 minutes stating we had to take care of the loudness of the dogs "right away and immediately". We headed home and responded immediately as demanded. Dogs do bark, but when you rent a home with a garden patio with half high walls that back up to a populated walk-through for beach and bay access, barking should probably be expected, and we did try and limit it because it annoys us as well when they bark.. The dogs were a know factor before they accepted our rental. We left the next morning, house clean.
