“Liliana took amazing care of my dog, Brownie, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her dedication, professionalism, and kindness. From the very start, she showed genuine warmth and a true love for animals, immediately putting Brownie (and me!) at ease. She went above and beyond in every way—making sure Brownie was well-fed, exercised, and showered with affection. She kept me updated with photos and messages, so I never had to worry about how he was doing while I was away. It was clear that she treated Brownie like her own dog, giving him not just attention, but real companionship. When I returned, Brownie was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It’s rare to find someone so responsible, trustworthy, and caring, and I’m truly grateful to have found Liliana. I will absolutely be booking her again in the future and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care.”
“Elizabeth was great. She was communicative, reliable and sent videos and pictures which gave me reassurances. I’m so grateful to have been connected to her and would definitely use her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m an avid lifelong dog lover who works from home full time. Our home features a spacious, secure fully fenced backyard where dogs can run freely. I have extensive experience caring for happy pups of all life stages, from high-energy puppies who need consistent potty training to seniors who require gentle care and medication management. My husband and I have a lively, dog-loving home with two friendly pups and a toddler under two. Because of this, we only accept guest dogs who are known to be comfortable and gentle around young children. We also proudly offer long-term boarding for military deployments and extended work travel. We are familiar with the military lifestyle and offer flexible boarding for both short-term TDYs and long-term deployments. Having two dogs of our own, we provide a stable 'pack' environment where your pup becomes a temporary member of our family for as long as you're away. Whether for a weekend or six months, your dog will receive close supervision, daily play, and all the love they deserve! I'm currently working from home so I'm very active and available to the dogs when they need me. They typically like to nap in the office or sunbathe outside while I'm working, and during my breaks we often play in the backyard or go for a quick walk. Once I'm off work there's more playtime in the backyard before dinner and bedtime. Our two friendly dogs love making new friends and are great at welcoming guests into our pack. We always offer a quick Meet & Greet in our spacious backyard to ensure everyone’s personality meshes perfectly before the stay. This allows us to see how our dogs and my child interact with your pup before we confirm a stay. For long-term stays (30+ days), I often suggest an extended Meet & Greet to make sure your pup feels fully comfortable before your departure.
“Zack and Dina's family were so great! They were able to watch my girl for a week, and she seemed like she had such a great time there! They sent pictures and videos of her having fun playing with their dogs and son, and snuggling with them in the evenings. I'm glad I found someone to watch her that I feel comfortable with, and that she's safe and loved while I'm away ?”
“I chose Nicole the first time I used Rover.com and she is the only sitter I use. My little 14 year old has enjoyed short and long stays with Nicole and her family. It's a perfect match! As an older pet he needs a special diet and occasional medications and she makes it so easy. I feel so comfortable leaving him with her and I love her daily pictures and messages. I feel very fortunate to have found such a loving home to leave my little man with!”
“Lizet was wonderful with bear. She gives you updates and photos/ videos on your pet which it really appreciative of. She treats your pets like they were her own. Bear felt comfortable with lizet and you can tell she enjoyed her stay with lizet. Bear found her forever sitter and new friends 😁💙”
“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
“Adam was a wonderful sitter for our puppy! We’d never been away from him before but Adam made us feel comfortable and Bailey did really well! Adam was flexible and answered all of my questions immediately. We will definitely use him again in the future!!”
About: I’ve been around dogs ranging from chihuahuas and frenchies to Great Danes and German shepherds. I’ve never know a day without animals they’re my whole world. I think pet care should be affordable and not something to stress over! All of your babies will become my babies in my care💖 I’m currently a SAHM so I have plenty of time to spend with your babies! I have more availability for walks in the evenings and on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and one very friendly puppy at my home! Plenty of space in the house if your pup likes their own space and a big yard to play in!!
“Our puppy had a wonderful stay with Michelle and Elizabeth. They were very communicative and sent fun pictures and updates. We felt very secure that our puppy was well taken care of!! We would definitely have her stay with them again.”
“Melissa is always so accommodating and willing to host Kylo even if it’s a last minute request. She really treats him as one of her own doggies, always spoiling him with lots of cuddles, treats, and multiple walks throughout the day. She also sends multiple pictures and updates throughout the day to put your mind at ease! Thank you Melissa, Kylo can’t wait for his next stay with you!”
“Anh and William were wonderful to work with. They came through in a big way as they were able to look after my golden doodle under short notice due to a family emergency. They made sure to send pictures frequently and I was able to have peace of mind that Buddy was well taken care of. I highly recommend William and Anh.”

I’m really grateful to have found Daniela on Rover. I knew after meeting her and her family at our meet and greet that my boys would be in good hands. She made sure to send pictures of them and update me everyday on how they were doing. It’s always a good feeling to know your pups are with someone safe while you’re away. If I ever go out of town again I will be definitely be booking with her! Thank you again Daniela for being so accommodating as well!
Anna and her family did a great job caring for my pups. She sent frequent photos and videos that put me at ease. I could see their personalities shine in the videos which helped me feel confident that they felt safe with Anna. They loved playing outside and I’m thankful they had that space to do that.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Desert View Highlands can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Desert View Highlands home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Desert View Highlands.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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.

You and your Desert View Highlands sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 sitter 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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
