About: I’ve always loved animals my whole life and grew up taking care of cats and dogs. I’ve pet sat for family and friends many a times. I’m very good a training puppies as well as caring for older pets. These last couple of years i’ve pet sat a lot more and have gained a good amount of experience! 🤍 I’m currently working part-time as well as being a full time college student but I will have plenty of time to drop in and make sure your pets are doing well! I can work around my work and school schedule to drop in before and after if need be. I want to make sure your pets feel comfortable and safe in their own home so i’ll be sure to stay with their normal routine. I’m very patient and equipped to handle different medication or special routines. I understand that it can be scary leaving your pets in someone else’s hands but I want to reassure you that you can count on me to make sure that your pets are being cared for properly. I respect your home and their space and will keep you updated with how your pets are doing after each visit. I want your mind to be at ease while you’re away and your pets to be safe and happy!

About: Hi, I’m Matthew! Having grown up with dogs and animals my whole life, pet care is second nature to me. I treat every animal with the highest level of love, attention, and respect, ensuring they stay happy, safe, and comfortable. I offer reliable dog walking, quick drop-in visits, and dedicated overnight care in your home. Whether your dog needs high-energy outdoor play, consistent feeding routines, or a cozy companion to stay with them through the night, I tailor my care directly to their unique personality and needs. I pride myself on prompt communication, sending frequent photo updates, and keeping your home neat and secure. Your pets will always receive family-level care and undivided affection while you're away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet's needs throughout the day and week. Whether you need drop-in visits, energetic dog walks, or overnight stay-overs at your home, I dedicate undivided time and focus to following your exact routine without rushing. When staying at or visiting your home, safety and security are my top priorities. I strictly follow all entry, door-locking, and home care instructions to keep your space secure. I maintain a clean environment, follow feeding and medication schedules precisely, keep dogs securely leashed during walks, and send detailed regular updates and photos for total peace of mind.

About: I’ve always felt drawn to animals, even as a toddler, and I’m grateful they have always been in my life one way or another. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, parrots, bunnies and I’m 200% comfortable around all types of animals, including yours! Most of my happiest memories of a child include being around dogs and I have continued to be involved in their care in professional as well as volunteer-based ways. I consistently donate my time to rescues by fostering them, setting up adoption events and volunteering at shelters. I’m also the kind of person who will stop to say hello to a dog walking past me in the street. I adopted my own five-year old rescue, Pippin, who LOVES other pups and is happy to keep them company with me when boarding a dog in our home. I’m an active individual…exercise is very important to me—both for myself and Pippin, and I am a great match for high-energy dogs. At a bare minimum (unless otherwise specified by the owner), I make sure we walk for at least an hour and if your pup needs more exercise, I am more than capable of exercising for multiple hours! I go above and beyond with communication by sending regular photo, video and text updates in real time so you know your pup is healthy, happy and secure when in my care. I also make sure I understand your pup’s usual schedule and then do my best to stick to their regular feeding times, activity times (and level) and play their favorite games. Does your pup like hiking? Great, because I do too! In short, I get to know my clients’ dogs’ favorite things to do and then make sure our time together is a healthy mix of the activities they enjoy. It can be difficult for a pup to trust a new person right off the bat so I take the time to earn their trust through belly rubs, ear scratches, cuddles and healthy treats. I have over two decades of experience caring for all types of breeds, temperaments and sizes, and I do whatever it takes to understand their quirks and then tailor my care to their specific needs. I work as a freelance copywriter but besides that my schedule is wide open for pet care during the evenings and on weekends. I have a student mindset and am always interested in learning as much as I can to provide your pup with the best care possible. Send me a message, I can’t wait to meet you!
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.
“Sophia saved us last minute (day of) when we were in a pinch and needed care for our dogs. She sent really great report cards and pictures of the dogs and followed our instructions exactly. She was reliable and communicative and we know that our dogs really loved playing with her. Thank you Sophia!!!”


About: My uncle used to own a boarding and grooming facility in Tucson, Arizona and I worked for him. This included feeding dogs and cats as well as cleaning litter boxes and kennels. I also administered medication’s. Since being in the Coachella Valley, I’ve also done pet/house sitting for a family that had four dogs and three cats & another family that had four dogs & a blind orange cat. I have one small and spunky multi poo that has to have three medications that she will not chew so I have to physically administer it with a feeding syringe. I have one cat now, but at one time I had five that were all rescues and lived out their old age with us. I work full time, but I’m able to request time off if I get to pet/house sit. I’m also available before & after work & on my days off. I will carefully follow all instructions for the pet & home I will sit for. Everything from dietary needs, medication and walking. I will even bathe your pet.
About: Hi there! I’m very observant and caring with pets. I have a lot of experience in senior care. My own dog, who passed in 2024, lived to 15 years old, was blind and diabetic. Because of him, I’m comfortable with special care needs. I am a full time nursing student at College of The Desert. My availability/calendar on Rover is always updated and accurate. I provide dog sitting services on a part time basis during the semester :) The months of December-Jan 2026 I will be taking some time off from pet sitting. Unfortunately my home does not allow pets so I can only sit in the pets/your home! I am excited to meet your fur baby and give them all my love, care and attention! I like to send a lot of photos and videos because your comfort is my comfort (Unless you ask me not to!) One thing that really helps things go smoothly is a detailed schedule & notes (written or typed) for your pet if they have any. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to keep your pup safe and happy.

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.

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love for animals and my eagerness to learn.

I'm patient and attentive, making sure to follow any specific instructions you have. I’m excited to bond with your pets and ensure they feel loved and comfortable while you’re away! I work part-time, pet care fits right into my daily routine! I love making time for walks, playtime, and feeding. I usually set aside specific times for walks and play sessions, making sure pets get plenty of exercise and attention. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routine as closely as possible to make sure the pets feel at ease. I stick to their feeding schedules, walk times, and any other specific instructions given by the pet owners. I also make sure to keep the home tidy and respect the client’s space.
“We appreciate the wonderful care and great communication that Baylen provides. He does exactly what we ask in regards to Casper's care and he communicates with us after each visit. We are grateful to have someone so reliable and thoughtful when we need care for our pup.”

About: I have taken care of over 30+ different dogs over the past 5 years. I loved the time with all of them. I will treat your dog as my own, because there is no other to treat them. I am available all day and night on the weekends, I don’t go out much besides for walks and to eat. I am at home most of the weekdays.. I am never gone for more than 2-3 hours on the weekdays. I will care for your dogs as they were my own, because they are for the time being. I make sure to feed and water them right on the desired schedule and take them for my daily walk.
“Marisa has been amazing! She’s kind, reliable, and someone I trust with Luna. She’s always on time, communicates clearly, and sends plenty of updates and photos which I really appreciate. She also respects all the routines and rules I’ve set, and checks in if she has any questions... I feel at ease knowing Luna is in such good hands. I highly recommend Marisa to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog walker!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Indian Wells
Richard is truly incredible . He does an excellent workout with my energetic dog and he is very friendly and professional. He comes well prepared , always on time and very capable and comfortable managing dogs. My Bailey adores him and can’t wait for her next adventure with Richard

Lily is incredibly communicative, friendly, and clearly cares about the dogs she works with. She texts when she’s on her way and keeps me updated throughout the walk, which gives me so much peace of mind. Living in the desert, it’s way too hot right now for our Golden Retriever puppy to get a proper walk outside, and Lily was willing to pick her up and drive her to the mall so she could safely get some exercise and socialization. She even made sure our puppy got to say hi to other dogs, which makes me so happy since socialization is really important to us right now. Her pricing is also very fair, which makes it affordable for us to book her regularly during those hectic evenings after work when our energetic puppy is ready to GO! 😂 I can already tell our girl is going to love Lily. We’re so glad we found her and will definitely be booking again!

Marisa was wonderful! She took great care of Kylo while we were away and kept us updated with messages and photos after each walk, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating when our travel plans changed, and we really appreciated her understanding. It was clear Kylo was well cared for and happy. I would absolutely recommend Marisa to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy dog walker, and we look forward to booking with her again!

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
