“Desiree did an amazing job looking after our little guy. She met with us prior to watching him in our home and eased his nerves. We look forward to working with Desiree again.”

“Ashurina was communicative, flexible, sent lots of pics of our doggies and, most importantly, took excellent care of our two schnauzers. We would highly recommend her services.”


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.
“This was the second time we had Jon watch our doberman Tyson while visiting Palm Springs. Tyson has severe separation anxiety and Jon great while watching Tyson when we went out for the evening. Jon's professionalism and 'dog skills' allowed us to have evenings out without a single worry. We highly recommend Jon, and will using him on our next visit to Palm Springs. Thanks Jon!”

“Dola was absolutely amazing! We had a last minute cancellation and she was able to accommodate us. This was our first time using Roover and we were not sure what to expect but Dola was so thorough with the care of our 2 pups. She paid attention to every little detail and provided us with updates and photos. She loved on both our pups in a way that we are so grateful for. We highly recommend Dola and look forward to becoming a regular for her if our schedules permit.”

About: Hi, my name is Karen Cruz. I currently work as a veterinary assistant, where I’ve gained experience in a wide range of situations involving both cats and dogs. Through my role, I’ve learned how to properly care for pets of all ages, from young puppies and kittens to senior pets. I am confident in administering medications, giving injections, and providing any additional care your pet may need. I am currently working part-time, which allows me to have plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I am available Monday through Wednesday, both mornings and evenings, and Friday through Sunday with flexible availability depending on the time. I will attend to each pet’s needs according to the owner’s instructions and ensure their care is provided with attention and compassion. I also respect the owner’s residence and will accommodate each pet’s specific care requirement's.
“I can’t recommend Nina enough! She took such amazing care of my dog, Dobby, while my husband and I were out exploring Palm Springs. I usually feel a little anxious leaving Dobby with someone new because he’s very shy and scared around people—but Nina made me feel completely at ease. She went above and beyond—sending me tons of photos and videos throughout the day, taking Dobby on a long walk (which he absolutely loved), and even playing calming music to help ease his anxiety. No sitter has ever done that before, and it meant so much to me. You can truly tell Nina cares deeply for the dogs she watches. Knowing she has experience caring for dogs with past trauma also gave me so much peace of mind, since one of her own dogs is a rescue. Thank you, Nina, for being so patient, understanding, and kind—you’re the best! 💕🐾”

“We could tell immediately that we could trust Christopher to babysit and walk our two large dogs while we got married in Palm Springs this weekend. While our dogs probably would have been fine sleeping in our room the whole time, we felt better knowing Chris was there to take them out and keep an eye on them for us. Would not hesitate to hire Chris again.”
“It's not easy to trust someone with your pets and home, but I'd feel 100% comfortable booking Sarah again. We got lots of pictures of our dog out on all kinds of walks and adventures with Sarah. Our shy kitty even came out for belly rubs from her. Our house was spotless when we got home. Thank you Sarah!”

“Had a wonderful experience with Georgia. I left her with somewhat involved instructions for my pup with special health needs and she followed them with such care and was very communicative in the process!”

“I’m afraid to say too many good things about Kevin because I am never going to be able to book him again! He is an absolute king when it comes to senior dogs. My dog is relatively easy, but as she is older, she can definitely have her moments. Kevin showed incredible patience, care, compassion, and love. I cannot recommend him enough. He is a great match for my “Fluff”. We will be booking again!”

“Kristina is an angel! She took such good care of my senior dog and our little dog and was able to stay T our home with them, where they’re comfortable. I felt secure knowing they were in good hands while I was on my work trip. She was very communicative and sent us updates every day. I highly recommend Kristina for any pet sitting needs!”

Anthony was the best fit I could have asked for, for my two corgis, Albert and Einstein. Both are very different in personalities and temperaments. He engaged them with love and care and at their individual energy levels. He paid close attention to their care instructions, which were quite specific. Anthony respected our home and went above and beyond to leave the house as I had left it, probably better. We would definite be using him in the future.

Dola was absolutely amazing! We had a last minute cancellation and she was able to accommodate us. This was our first time using Roover and we were not sure what to expect but Dola was so thorough with the care of our 2 pups. She paid attention to every little detail and provided us with updates and photos. She loved on both our pups in a way that we are so grateful for. We highly recommend Dola and look forward to becoming a regular for her if our schedules permit.
