Couple + sweet, elderly cat and plants seeking quiet, clean space in SF

Tenant Looking for a Home in San Francisco, CA, United States
Monthly Budget: Maximum USD $6500

Looking for an Entire Home | Willing to Housesit
Tenant Timing: From May 1, 2026 until August 31, 2026

Description

We're a mid-40's couple living in the Mission, SF, seeking a rental while our home is being remodeled. One of us is a former chef/teacher and the other a software engineer; we both work f/t in tech now on a hybrid schedule. We're open to furnished or unfurnished rentals and are seeking a spot that's clean and fairly quiet with two or more bedrooms. Our elderly cat Ginger (16.5) is a cotton ball who sleeps all day; she has never damaged anything in our home and is the sweetest! We have some house plants that we'll want to bring with us, too. Our IDEAL rental would have some outdoor space, a parking space, secure bike parking and be close to BART, but that's not required. One of us loves to garden and would be more than happy to tend your outdoor space. Our remodel timeline is still unclear, so we're open to rentals from 3-6+ months right now.

I am fine with utilities included or not included

I am fine with or without a cleaning service

Considerations

I would like to bring my pet if it is okay

I prefer smoking not allowed in the home

Comments: We have one elderly cat, 16.5 years old. Very quiet and sweet. She basically just sleeps all day - does not destroy furniture, etc., as she is low mobility. If she is still with us in May, we'll need to bring her with us.

House Sitting

I am willing to housesit

Yes, I can help with mail and deliveries

We can pick up your mail and packages, no problem!

Yes, I can help with plants or garden

I'm an experienced gardener and I LOVE plants! I'd be more than happy to help care for yours.

Comments: We'd love to bring our houseplants with us if possible - we'd be sure not to damage any furniture with water. This is negotiable, but would really help us out!

Member Background

About Me

Former teacher, current artist + tech worker living in SF (Mission) with my partner and elderly cat, Ginger :) I love to bike, hike, yoga, garden, bake, cook, create, travel ... all the things! While we own a home in SF, we're currently looking for a short-term rental while it gets renovated. I've got references that can vouch for me as a tenant: quiet, clean, amazing with plants and generous with baked goods! :)
