About: I’ve had both dogs and cats since I was 5 years old, giving me more than 40 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I understand that every animal has its own unique personality and needs, and I take the time to provide the individualized care, patience, and attention each pet deserves. Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, feeding, medication (if needed), and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, maintaining their regular routines, or simply providing comfort and affection, I enjoy making pets a priority and treating them like family. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routines and keep them comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their personalities, preferences, and routines. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care while giving pet owners peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.

About: Hi, I’m a professional dog trainer by trade with forty years experience. My training methods are always very gentle and balanced. I work from home in the La Quinta/Indio area. When you board your dog(s) with me they will always be loved and cared for, and will live and sleep indoors. While you are away I can send photos and videos. We take walks in the mornings. I only keep a couple of friendly dogs at a time. You are also welcome to stop by and inspect my home (bring your dogs so they can also check it out!). I can also pick up and deliver (limited range) at your schedule. Board your dogs with us over the holidays, or anytime knowing they will be safe and happy. I’m a professional dog trainer and I also board and walk dogs. I work from home mostly so I always have time and room for one more! Forty years professional experience with dogs. I’m home most of the day. We take morning and evening walks weather permitting. I closely supervise my pet guests!
About: I have always had pets since I can remember from cats to dogs, bunnies, chickens, so I grew up caring for many animals. I would also pet sit for family members and friends. I currently have a dog and a bunny! I love exercise and nature, so I’m constantly outside playing sports or walking/running and hiking. I love to look for new spots for hikes or short walks and parks. I also have a part time job of only 12 hours a week so I have a lot of free time on my hands! I currently have a bunny who has her own little pen. My apartment in a gated community and near a park! I am very organized and can follow any specific routines needed for pets of any needs.
“The best! Shayna knows how to listen to my instruction & cautions then cares for my Frenchie genuinely-she communicates along the way to keep my worry & anxiety down. I feel so lucky to have her! She is a sweet, kind person & I highly recommend her”
About: I can address the unique requirements of large and small breed dogs. I provide specialized care for senior and advanced senior dogs, ensuring their golden years are comfortable and healthy. I work full-time but seasonally at a large local hotel and my hours vary. I have a very flexible schedule and can work around calendar based obstacles. I find that most animals actually like to stay in their own yard, but if need be, I do have decent sized back yard and it is secured by brick walls / concrete barriers.
About: Hi! My name is Diana, and I’m a lifelong animal lover who treats every pet as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’m reliable, patient, and detail-oriented—so you can trust that your pet’s routine, safety, and happiness will always come first. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I am available most of the time to be with your fur baby! I can do boarding most nights but please ask and I’m happy to let you know availability I have a shared back yard, lots of living room space for playing and a gated community to walk your fur baby. I have a 5 year old beagle named Benson to play with your fur baby!
About: Palm desert dog walker with many years of loving animals and a dependable schedule. Getting exercise having fun or just relaxing i love it all. Your dogs well being is my priority :) My schedule is open and available. I pick kids up for school in the afternoon and the rest will be spending time with pups. Early to beat the heat or later when it cools down. I have a fenced in yard. I don’t have any of my own dogs at the moment. Clean house safe neighborhood. Large area for playtime.
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have cared for and nursed four French Bulldogs, which has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsive to each dog's individual needs. Through that experience, I've become comfortable monitoring health concerns, maintaining routines, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I've also been around many different dog breeds throughout my life, so I'm confident handling a variety of temperaments and energy levels. My goal is to treat every pet like family and provide owners with peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine because I've always been around dogs and enjoy spending time with them. While I am usually unavailable on Thursdays and Sundays, I do my best to be flexible and accommodate pet owners' needs whenever possible. As long as we stay in contact and communicate clearly, I can work with schedules to provide reliable care. I am committed to making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I make it a priority to follow their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and giving them plenty of attention and companionship. I understand that pets are most comfortable when their routine stays consistent. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while they're away. Having cared for and nursed four French Bulldogs and been around many different dog breeds, I'm comfortable adapting to each pet's individual needs and personality.
About: I have had dogs and taken care of dogs since I was a kid. I love all creatures and will pamper your pup! I know how important it is for dogs to feel safe and cared for while their owners are away and will give your dog all the love and attention it needs! I have a very flexible schedule which allows me plenty of time to spend taking care of your pet. When I do work, it's only for a few hours at a time, so I can stick with your dog's routine for eating and walking and such. I have a fenced yard with a bit of grass and one small senior dog who gets along with dogs and cats. I don't mind dogs on the couch and we have a cute park down the road for walks and outside play time.
About: Because of my love for animals and the my flexible schedule I thought this would be a great fit for me! Happy to help ! Open for the most part , as of now a lot of flexibility in my schedule if anything changes will let my clients know. Thank you I listen to what my client wants and offer lots of love and attention. Happy to help feel free to call or text anytime .
About: I love dogs and grew up having all types of breeds but I am any pet friendly. I have had snakes, tortoises, a bunny and now I have a cat! My dog knowledge comes mostly from personal experience that I have optained from my lifetime of being a pet owner. At the moment I don't have a doggy in my life but I need one. I would love to practice my trading, playing and dog walking until I can add a dog to my life but in the meantime I'll enjoy the company of any doggy that will let me. My schedule is very free and flexible. I work part time and do some volunteer work so even though I'm available 90 percent of the time knowing ahead of time what pet might need some attention would be very helpful. Now I have a fenced yard. It's small but there is a park just down the street. To keep the pet in my home, it would need to be crate trained since I have a cat indoors (at least I can know that both pets are safe. And if it's at a clients home then whatever works for the pet and owner. That may be preferable but it all depends
About: I’ve always loved animals since childhood, growing up with my parents always rescuing strays. Over the years, I’ve developed strong skills in dog care, focusing on comfort and trust. What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my ability to make pets feel at ease through a comforting touch, a unique scent I wear to ensure they recognize me, and creating a calming environment where they feel safe and cared for. I also always make sure to send pet owners picture updates of their pets to ensure they’re doing okay and to always ask questions if I am unsure about anything. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine! I’m always available because I’m passionate about making pet sitting my full-time career. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just hanging out with pets, I love spending time with them and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. Caring for pets feels natural to me, and I’m excited to make it a regular part of my life! In both my home and my clients’ homes, I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I stick to their usual routines, whether that’s feeding, walks, or playtime, and I provide plenty of attention and affection. I always stay with them every step of the way, showering them with pets and ensuring they’re comfortable with me and their surroundings. I create a calm, stress-free environment, and if needed, I bring familiar items like toys or blankets to help them feel at home. My goal is to make sure they feel completely relaxed, loved and cared for!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Cactus City. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Cactus City.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
