“Don was very accommodating and great at communicating! He took time to make sure our pup felt safe and comfortable for her 1st stay! Don sent us many photos and videos to keep us updated!”
“THE BEST! When simba and I originally met Brandon and William we knew we had found our dogs best companions! They were so gracious to invite us in and show us the space Simba would be staying in. On Simba's visit we were always provided updates and photos. Brandon and William are so kind and loving, your pet will go to the best home. Truly so appreciative for their care! Thank you!”

About: I have taken care of my family members’ and friends’ dogs. I take them out for walks and follow their schedule, if they have one. I am a part time student and can look after and or check in with your pets whenever needed depending on my own personal schedule. I provide a safe, comfortable environment for pets in my home. My backyard is fully fenced, and I have a friendly dog who is well-socialized with other animals. I always supervise interactions and closely monitor pets for any unusual behaviors or signs of stress. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions, to help your pet(s) feel secure and comfortable.
“I left my puppy with Katie for a night and did not worry once about him. I was originally nervous to leave him since it was my first time leaving him since I adopted him, but Katie was so great at alleviating my concerns and understanding where I was coming from. She sent me multiple pictures of Archie throughout the night. I already booked my next stay with Katie! Highly recommend her boarding services.”
“Julie and her husband were absolutely lovely with our pup, Eeyore, who was boarded at their home for a couple nights! We felt confident right off the bat that she was in good hands. 5/5 stars all around! Thanks, Julie.”
“My dog had a hard time with the introduction since he was only used to being home and had very little interaction with others. Jenessa did an amazing job gaining his trust and was patient with him even after he showed his difficult side for a whole day, which could have been a dealbreaker for most sitters. After a day, Jenessa updated me with how he was getting along & I was so relieved to know his happy, playful side finally kicked in. 10 out of 10 recommend! I would definitely request her again if I ever needed it.”

“Absolutely the best. I have a difficult dog, and Candace was extremely confident and loving with her. I have full peace of mind when she's watching my dog. Thank you Candace!”
“Our very shy sheltie loved staying with Lauren. She knew just what to do to make him feel at ease and was relaxed and happy when we picked him up. This was his second time with Lauren and we highly recommend her!”
“Geri was the best! Don't be fooled by her stern-looking profile photo; she is anything but! Super stylish and kind, with a huge heart. Our Roxy was very happy with her stay with Geri, and her home is beautiful, and every detail was accounted for in making it super doggy friendly. Her lil pup is also very sweet and got along very well with our picky, not-usually-a-dog-person dog, Roxy, which says a lot. Anyway, look no further, we highly recommend choosing Geri for your doggy needs!!”
“We are so happy that we found Corrine! After visiting with her at our meet and greet, we felt very confident she would be an excellent caregiver for our dog. We left Ollie there for 5 nights and Corrine was good at communicating with pics and updates during his stay. When we picked him up, he was calm and relaxed. Thanks Corrine, see you next time.”

Alanah did a great job taking care of our pup. She was available last minute, very communicative and sent photo and text updates of our dog. Our dog is anxious when left with new people but she warmed right up to Alanah and was her happy self when we picked her up.
Our dog Simon is always taken care of with love & caring. Gloria is wonderful dog sitter & Simon needed extra special care this time, with some new medications to administer over a period of days with changing dosages. Gloria took on the task as any mother would for her child and I knew Simon was well looked after. I am so very thankful for her.
My dog had a hard time with the introduction since he was only used to being home and had very little interaction with others. Jenessa did an amazing job gaining his trust and was patient with him even after he showed his difficult side for a whole day, which could have been a dealbreaker for most sitters. After a day, Jenessa updated me with how he was getting along & I was so relieved to know his happy, playful side finally kicked in. 10 out of 10 recommend! I would definitely request her again if I ever needed it.
I left my dog with Natalie and her family and it was a 10/10 experience! She sent great updates including videos so I know my guy was having fun and being treated like part of the family. I felt completely at ease leaving him for a week and he came home happy and tired! Would absolutely recommend her to care for your pup and will definitely be using her in the future!:)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Indio is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $83 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 308 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Indio. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
95% of sitters in Indio 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 Indio home-away-from-home, 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 Indio.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 and your Indio 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 , 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 .
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.
