Dog Walking Desert View

About: I’ve worked with all types of pets, small and big, I 'm compassionate about animals and the unconditional love they bring to our lives. Whether it was a shi tzu to a german shepard to a lab, to a horse, I'm a true animal lover. Additionally, I took care of a friend until the end, he got Long-Term Covid in 2019 and died in Feb 2024. I also helped in my mother's care who had muscular dystrophy and my father, who had dementia. I'm a semi-retired entertainment publicist who spent the last 18 years in Los Angeles. After being a part-time resident in PALM SPRINGS since 2008, I'm now a full-time resident that truly loves the desert and no remorse from leaving LA. When I do work, I work from my home office so I'm always around. Also, if you are looking for an extended stays, please reach out to me for discount on mid-long term stays. Mainly by preference, I have my own personal preferences but whatever the Pet Parents want something specific, like no pets on the furniture or bed. Preference for using their own dog bed. I'm here to provide a service tailored to their needs.

“Amberleigh is great and my pups really enjoyed their walk. It's great having someone reliable and friendly that we can trust with our pups during our busy season.”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of pets! From fish to birds to dogs, I love them all. I have experience taking care of puppies and also senior dogs, like my pup of 14 years. I’d love to make sure your pal is well taken care of! I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time for your furry friends! I’m available most days and am fully willing to work with your schedules! My home is fully fenced in front and back yard so no worries about unwanted friends. I’m comfortable with adapting to what makes your pet comfortable, may that be more quality time, enrichment, outside time, or whatever they may need.

About: Hello! Don't let my profile location deter you from reaching out, I have a very wide service area. I am available to care for all of your pets while you're away! Please contact me for a quote if you have a pet you'd like me to care for other than a dog or cat (submit it as a dog/cat request) ☺️ New to Rover? I have a discount code for you if you book your first service with me! I am available for night and evening drop-ins to feed and play with your pets. Do you work nights and hate leaving your babies alone? Are you going to a fancy dinner and want to make sure your pets are okay when you're gone? I can come by and give you some peace of mind. I can also care for other pets, including lizards, fish, hamsters, rabbits, etc. I am a huge animal lover. I adopted a senior dog years ago and he was the best dog ever, up until his very last day in December, 2023. Our household has water snails, fish, three cats, a dog, and a pig! I have experience with rabbits and hamsters and other small pets, and I have experience with special needs animals. My longest boarding to date was 5 months for a senior cat with Cerebellar hypoplasia. My schedule recently changed, so I am available on most days for drop-ins and walks. I also offer boarding, house sitting, and daycare. We are a very animal friendly household. I have a fenced yard and a kiddie pool so your doggos can play and keep cool! My piggy will be there to keep your baby company and I have a 14 year old kid who loves to snuggle and play with all your pets! Cats will enjoy their own space so they can feel comfortable ☺️ !!!Important Notes!!!: I love watching and caring for your snuggle bug(s)! However, I have to sleep too. If you can't pick up your pet before 7pm, one additional day of boarding or doggy daycare will be added to your booking. An additional fee will be added for dogs over 40 pounds. Dogs under 1 year and/or "bully breeds" will be accepted on a case-by-case basis. By booking with me, you acknowledge that if your puppo damages property, you are responsible for any cost of repairs or replacement. When damage occurs, it is usually caused by pets that do not crate or have high anxiety when left alone for even short periods. My policy on dog breeds and sizes is in place because of two separate incidents. First, I lost a beloved pet to a boarded Rover doggo on Christmas morning, 2020. Having to put my little pig Minnie in the freezer after being attacked on Christmas morning was a horribly traumatic experience. In June 2023 I was attacked by a 110lb Rover dog at a meet and greet and had to go to the hospital. If the owner had not been present, I would have been killed. These are incidents that I will not risk repeating. Thank you so much for understanding!

About: My wife and I have always had various pets in our homes from dogs to reptiles. My wife Amanda has over 5 years experience in the pet care industry from grooming to administering oral medications. I am a disabled Veteran and a stay at home dad so I have plenty of time to check-in, visit or care for your fur babies. My wife has a flexible schedule and spends her free time at home caring for all our animals. When caring for pets—whether in my own home or a client’s home—I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment above all else. I ensure each pet is in a secure space free from hazards and always follow their specific routines for feeding, exercise, and medication. Building trust is essential, so I take time to connect with each animal, learning their personality and comfort level to help them feel relaxed and happy.

“Highly recommended, great communicator, super attentive and will go the extra mile.”

About: I have two fur babies of my own; my tiny chihuahua and my sweet feline boy, so I truly understand how special and high‑maintenance pets can be. I know how much love, attention, and patience they need, and I’m always happy to provide that same level of care for yours. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, a calm presence, or someone who understands their unique personality, I’m here to help. I treat every animal with kindness and respect, just like I do with my own. I am available all weekdays on the evenings(Weekends when needed). I’m interested in part time, full time and temporary, any accommodations are possible, please ask your questions!! I would prefer pet sitting in their homes, I wouldn’t want them to feel homesick but any accommodations are possible just ask your questions no problem!

About: Hello 👋🏻 My name is Kaylee and I’ve been a professional pet sitter for about 5 years now. Over the course of those 5 years I’ve cared for all of the following animals: dogs, cats, birds, fish, snakes, turtles, lizards, hamsters, rabbits and horses. I’m in college getting an animal science degree and I’ve worked with a wide age range of animals. From puppies all the way to senior dogs and kittens all the way to elderly cats. *please know that while my listed prices are accurate additional surcharges may apply. (All prices will be disclosed before booking) I have a lot of availability for pet care in my schedule, I do have college classes I must attend and the occasional appointment with these being non-negotiable blocks of time I must leave the clients home to attend (which will be discussed ahead of time). However aside from that I have a plethora of time available to dedicate solely to your pet(s). *jobs that are “constant care” and/or have strict rules regarding how long the pet(s) can be left alone WILL incur a surge charge. I haven’t had a pet escape or get lost on my watch yet, and I don’t plan to start now. My childhood dog escaped once as kid, and even thought he was quickly found, it made me realize the horror of potentially losing a pet. As a result, I take pet safety very seriously. I will not walk a dog without a leash. I always double and triple check that doors are closed/locked (when appropriate).

About: For as long as I can remember we had dogs and cats in our household. I've had my own German Shepherd and pitbull now for quite some time, and I can say that truly are apart of the family As of now I have plenty of time to dedicate to this duty. I am full time student but currently in between semesters, and my reserve military requirements only takes up a bit of my schedule. Maintain a proper safe fence structure. Also a steel framed kennel that is 8x24 feet so my two dogs have plenty of space to roam about. I also allow my dogs inside at night time for a nice slumber.

“Karina is always reliable and Freya loves her!”

About: Hello I’m Ashley!! I am a huge animal lover and I have such a soft heart for every single one. I grew up in a small town and with not a lot money but I always somehow managed to find a stray cat to take home. I could never leave a cat or dog my heart will not let me and I’d always take them home till I found there forever home. I say kitty sanctuary because the amount of times I found cats or kittens and took them home! We didn’t have much growing up but I gave my all to my pets and even got my first job at 14 working at a snackbar for a baseball field and everything I made always went to getting food and extra food for the kitties I’d find. We had one dog growing up and sadly gave him away but I love dogs just as much!! The last two years I have dog sat for my neighbors who go on a few trips and I’ve been told I’m very attentive and friendly. I also watch my best friends cat for her every time she goes out of town. You can rely on me to keep things tidy, daily feeding, fresh water, picking up poop and I’ve had a sick cat before so I can do medications as well! I’m a very happy and big hearted person it’s just me naturally so you know your animals will be getting all my love and attention. I can assure you that your pets will be in very good hands and I will do all the basics and requirements you ask. Your home and pet will be given the same respect and care that I take with my own valuables. I have one part time job so I have a lot of availability to help out!! I’d be so happy to take the stress of leaving your pet and ensuring they are in great hands. I have one part time job so most of the week I’m free and I’m available every evening and night after 6pm! I usually only work mon- wed but I can always work around and figure it out. Id prefer your pets to stay home since they are typically more comfortable when they are in they’re own home and I want to make sure your pet feels happy an safe! If you needed for them to stay with me we can talk about it and I just have one little kitty with me who loves all animals just as much as me!

About: My mom is an animal lover, and naturally SO am I.I Love all types of animals small rodents, dogs, cats reptiles, birds love them all. I'm currently working part-time at night, so that gives me plenty of time in the day to spend with your fur babies. Anytime before 5 and anytime day or night during the weekend. I have a big fenced in backyard with one small dog to keep them company. And If need be I can crate them as well.

About: I am mainly looking to walk dogs but I am also open to dog sitting as well. I owned a Shar-pei Husky mix for 8 years (passed) and I now own a 11 year old German Shepherd. I’ve had experience with dogs all sizes and breeds and I have had zero negative experiences with dogs. I am 30 years old and workout 5 times a week so I can meet the physical demands of walking and playing with your dog. Because of my current profession and work schedule my hours are very flexible and i can accommodate to any needs that you will have. Spending time with dogs are my favorite thing so I can assure you your dog will be in good hands. Due to my profession I have ample free time and flexibility to walk and care for my dog. I love to walk early mornings when it’s not super hot but also walk in the afternoons as well. I always care for any dog as if they were my own. We often consider our pets our children/family so I give them the same care as anyone else.

“Highly recommend! Took care of our 3 dogs while we were away and very tentative to instructions. Communicated perfectly if we needed adjustments and our dogs were so excited to walk with her when she arrived at our house. Will definitely use her again in the future! Thank you Keiona!”

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.

I can take your pet to the vet for you. I have many years of experience working with animals at a veterinary hospital and animal shelter/rescue. I am available short or long term. I am available week days and weekends. Caring for pets is my vocation. I don’t have any schedule restrictions I have enclosures for the pet and a larger enclosed yard. I provide opportunity for water loving dogs to play in the pet pool. I provide “nose work” for those dogs that need mental activities.

“Anthony jumped into action when we needed a last minute dog walker when going out of town. He was very communicative and clearly enjoyed the time with our pup. Looking forward to booking him again and knowing Finley is in good hands!”

About: Im a student and dog lover, and looking to spend my free time with cute 🐕! I love to walk, play, feed, and give potty breaks. I know how stressful it can be to worry about your fur babies while you are out of town. I promise to care for them as if they were my own. My favorite activity is walking dogs, its a special one on one time and bonding time with them. Its important for them to trust me so that their experience is stress free as well. Its so much better to let your dogs stay at home rather than a kennel. Id really love the opportunity to make your life a little bit easier and stress free! Contact me asap! Currently a full time student looking for ways to have fun while making extra money! Walking your dogs and relaxing with them sounds perfect for me! I live in a small mobile home and we havr a small yard in the back where dogs can sniff and go potty on a keash as often as necessary. We also have a small dog park in our mobile home park and really nice local parks that are nice for dog walking.
