About Nessy

Hi, I'm Nessy! I am a super sweet girl who LOVES people and wants to be friends with everyone. I do well with dogs, walk well on a leash and love to play fetch. I recently went into a foster home in hopes to find my forever family faster! Here's what we've learned so far: I'd prefer to be around my people, I'm house broken, I'm pretty mellow overall, and I respect house rules of where I'm allowed. Check back in soon for more updates! If you'd like to meet me please submit an adoption application and email: ymota@chulavistaca.gov

Adopting in Chula Vista, CA

Chula Vista's pleasant climate and growing community make it a great South Bay city for pet adoption. Local shelters have many wonderful animals looking for loving homes between San Diego's urban core and the Mexican border.

With bayfront parks, mountain trails in the eastern reaches, and year-round sunshine, Chula Vista offers adopted pets a beautiful Southern California lifestyle at a more affordable price point.

Mild temperatures with occasional rain make winter easy for maintaining outdoor pet routines. The bayfront parks are less crowded this time of year, offering peaceful walking conditions. A light rain jacket for your pet may be useful during the occasional wet days.

Spring

52°F to 70°F

Mar – May

Warming days and clearing skies create ideal conditions for exploring Chula Vista’s parks and trails with your pet. Wildflowers bloom in the eastern hillside areas, providing scenic walking routes. The consistently comfortable weather requires minimal special preparation for outdoor outings.

Summer

The marine layer keeps mornings cool along the coast, but inland areas of Chula Vista warm up more. Schedule walks for morning hours near the bay for the most comfortable conditions. The mild coastal summer makes this one of the easiest cities for year-round outdoor activity with pets.
