About: I am a lifelong animal lover with a B.S. in Animal Science, veterinary clinic experience, and a variety of work history with animals spanning 5+ years. My greatest accomplishment may be personal though: training and caring for our family dog. I have spent a lifetime loving and learning about animals, and I promise to provide the utmost care for your beloved pet. I'm currently between jobs due to a career change so my schedule is flexible and caring for your pet will be my top priority. I treat client's homes with the same respect I treat my own home. My house is not available for pet sitting unless hypoallergenic breed.

We were out of town for our honeymoon and leaving our dog behind was honestly one of the hardest parts, Claire made the entire experience stress-free. She went above and beyond caring for our dog, kept us updated, and treated him like her own. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pup meant everything to us. Reliable, kind, communicative, and genuinely amazing at what she does . We are so grateful and will be booking Claire again in the future!

Christopher helped us out during our wedding day at The Ace hotel and went above and beyond! He walked and entertained our dog, Reggie, for over an hour while we got dressed for the wedding. As a rescue, Reggie can be a bit anxious around new people, but Chris was patient and calm. He came for a meet and greet before the day and got to know us and Reggie. On the day, he was prompt, communicative, and flexible. I was running late and Chris waited patiently for me to come grab Reggie. Reggie had such a great time with Christopher and we will definitely be booking again if we need a walker/sitter in Palm Springs.

I had a wonderful experience with Molly and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care. She was professional, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I always felt confident that my pet was in great hands, and I appreciated the updates and photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. Chewbacca was happy, well cared for, and excited to see her each visit, which says a lot. She was dependable, attentive to my pet's needs, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. I’m grateful for the excellent care and will definitely be booking with Molly again!

About: I have recently retired and now have plenty of time to pursue a passion I have always had of taking care of and being with animals. I always had a multitude of animals since I was a child. There were always rabbits, Guinea pigs, hamsters, cats, dogs around as I was growing up. I've always had at least one dog as a companion throughout adulthood. I currently have the cutest little chihuahua named Bailey who is 9 pounds, 10 years old I got her as a two-year-old from the shelter. I have also had a Great Dane. I enjoy dogs of all sizes. I am retired so am available Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, weekly from 9:00 a.m. to 7p.m. Thanksgiving, Christmas, New year's, most holidays I am available. I am extremely responsible and will always walk a dog on leash. I will always pick up after them.

About: With over 10 years of experience owning and operating a grooming and boarding facility in Houston, Texas, I bring professional, hands-on expertise to every dog I care for. As a devoted dog owner myself (four fur-kids and counting), I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, temperaments, and needs—including administering medication, handling anxious or difficult dogs, and, of course, managing the occasional mess with patience and care. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and attentive, but most importantly, I genuinely love dogs—and they know it. When you’re done booking, be sure to tell your dog I said hi. I’m semi-retired, which means I have the flexibility to provide reliable, around-the-clock care for your pets. Your dog won’t be squeezed into a schedule—they’ll have consistent attention, supervision, and companionship. As a longtime dog owner myself—sharing my home with an Olde English Sheepdog, Border Collie, Shih Tzu, and Miniature Poodle—I’m experienced with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities. I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own—with patience, attention, and genuine affection. In my home, your rules. I'm fine sleeping with dogs. I'll feed and play on your established schedule. I'll order in if the dogs can't be left alone.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for three high-maintenance, large-breed dogs—including walking, bathing, feeding, and handling their unique needs. I understand how much care and patience big dogs require, and I’m confident in managing strong, energetic pups with love and consistency. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility during the week and availability on weekends. I enjoy spending time with animals and have time to play, walk, and care for them just like I do with my own dogs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I treat them like family. I follow any instructions closely—feeding schedules, medications, walk times, and special needs. I make sure pets feel safe and loved by keeping their routine consistent, giving them lots of attention, and respecting their space. I also keep the home clean and tidy, just as I would want someone to do in mine.

About: Hi, I’m Henny. I have been playing and caring for cats and dogs for the past 25 years, but I gained my patience, compassion, and deep love for pets when I began volunteering at the animal shelter. I became more comfortable of all breeds and sizes. This continues on with looking after family friends’ pets which I really enjoyed. I currently have a mixed terrier named Lucy. She is estimated to be 13 years young. I will care for your fur-baby like my own. I am a yoga teacher with varying work hours but I’m never out of the house for more than couple of hours. I am available for overnight persisting at your home to minimize pet stress and happy to drop in for visit. I have Big fenced backyard with plenty of space to sniff around and be free. I often hang around in my backyard with the pups to enjoy the fresh air or some sun rays.

About: I grew up in an animal-loving family. We raised chickens, dogs, cats, birds, turtles, rabbits, etc together. That is where my fondness for furry, scaly, and feathery friends began. Since then, I have taken it upon myself to learn more about them, and work with them. I have taken classes on Animal Health and Care, have volunteered at the Pet Rescue Center in Coachella, and domesticated feral cats in my neighborhood. My skills include, but are not limited to: nursing puppies, potty-training cats, giving oral medication, and bathing. I am available to take care of your fur-babies Monday through Sunday, from 7am-6pm. I am an artist that gets to create her own schedule! So, as long as I don’t have an event planned, I am free, free, free! I do my best to create a connection with dogs and cats to help them feel safe with me. Once they do, we get forward with cuddles and play-time!

About: 🐾 Need a Reliable Dog Sitter? I've Got Your Tail Covered! 🐾 Heading out of town or working long hours? Let your pup stay safe, happy, and loved right in their own home! ✅ Experienced & trustworthy ✅ Daily walks, playtime & snuggles ✅ Administering meds if needed ✅ Updates & photos sent to you ✅ Available weekdays, weekends & holidays Whether it’s for a day, a weekend, or longer treat every dog like my own! Retiring soon, I work from home. I can’t really have a dog. I look forward to spending meaningful time with animals and sharing unconditional love with your furry friend while you’re away from home. My approach to pet care is always personalized to meet the unique needs of each animal, ensuring their comfort, safety, and happiness. Depending on the services requested, here’s how I typically provide care: Feeding: I follow the specific dietary instructions provided by the pet owner, including portion size, feeding times, and any special dietary needs or restrictions. I make sure fresh water is always available. Medication: If pets require medication, I administer it carefully according to the owner’s directions. This includes pills, topical treatments, or any other prescribed care, while closely monitoring the pet for any side effects or changes in behavior. Walking and Exercise: For dogs, regular walks tailored to their energy levels and physical condition are a priority. I ensure they get enough exercise and bathroom breaks to keep them healthy and happy. I’m attentive to leash safety and environmental conditions during walks. Play and Enrichment: Pets receive plenty of interactive playtime, stimulation, and affection to keep them mentally engaged and emotionally satisfied. This might include playing with toys, training exercises, or just spending quiet cuddle time. Comfort and Supervision: I maintain a safe and calm environment, making sure pets have a cozy space to rest and feel secure. I monitor their behavior closely to detect any signs of stress, illness, or discomfort. Communication: I keep pet owners updated regularly with photos, messages, or videos, sharing how their pet is doing and any noteworthy observations.

About: I grew up in a home that adopted cats & dogs and was the prime caregiver since animal's lives and happiness are close my heart. I believe in SPOILING them, not giving them all of the treats, but in giving them tons of attention and activity. Zonking them out at night so they have the best night's sleep. I love all dogs, tiny to giants and long-haired too. I laugh at zoomies. My animal voice disarms them quickly so even the most nervous cats or dogs warm up to me in time. I respect boundaries and listen/watch body language so that neither of us are uncomfortable. I love to go on walks with them, letting them smell every flower along the way. I love playing tug of war or chasing each other or throwing a ball for hours. They are such special little beings and deserve the best care. With me, they would be loved on, scratched, belly rubbed, or brushed to their delight! I work from home and set my schedule. So, I would be available to watch your furbabies during the times that you need, overnights, or just daily drop-bys. All I need is wifi and if it's the summer, AC. I am happy to bring any cat-friendly dogs into my home. Both of my cats LOVE dogs. But your furbabies would have to have up-to-date vaccinations to do so. I'm happy to have them here. If they like walks, I go on one daily for about an hour. If I need to, I can split that walk in two, no worries. Spending time with them at a dog park. Throwing the ball or playing outside with their favorite toy is also something that I would enjoy doing. I am happy to find what each furbaby needs and to meet it. I love getting to know animals and their specific qualities/likes/dislikes and meeting their needs and having fun. The whole idea to me is that if their humans are out of town. having fun, they should have an equal amount of fun too!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every pet in my care. As a dedicated dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone patient, reliable, and truly attentive watching over your fur baby. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I intentionally plan my week to make sure every pet in my care receives dependable attention, patience, and love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions carefully so pets feel secure in their familiar space. I also keep homes tidy and respect each client’s preferences and boundaries.

About: I grew up on a farm in England with working dogs, which gave me a love for animals and led me to a life working professionally with them. After 32 years of running my own pet care business in Los Angeles, I relocated to the Coachella Valley where I continue to walk, exercise, and socialize dogs, while also working as a dog trainer. I'm available Monday thru Friday from 7am until 5pm, so we can work out walks and visits depending on your schedule and your dog's needs. Your dog will always be walked on leash, with the exception of fenced dog parks. Dogs can be crated during transport, if that makes them more comfortable. With my many years of experience, I know exactly how to work with dogs with a focus on the safety, calm, and happiness of the animal.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Cathedral City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Walking in Cathedral City on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 724 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Cathedral City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Cathedral 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 Cathedral City.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cathedral City. On Rover:

  • 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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.
