“Sophia was amazing with my dog and so professional. She was great about communicating and sending updates of her visit. She also took the best pictures of my dog. I would highly recommend Sophia!”
About: Human to Shadow, a 6 year old male. After adopting him as a 6 week old puppy, I became fully invested in learning more about how I can provide my pups with the best care while enjoying life together. I understand it can be difficult to finding the best match for the needs of your pups while you are away which is why I joined Rover as a sitter. My schedule for day drop in visits are by case to case, however, my evenings and nights are very flexible. For full day services, I am available Friday-Sunday. My goal is for pets to feel as comfortable as they are with their humans. I will follow any instructions provided and will ask questions as needed to ensure that the pets routine and environment are not disrupted.
About: Hi, I’m Brianna! I’m new to professional pet sitting and dog walking but I’m an animal lover and have been caring for animals my whole life. I’ve always had pets of my own and have cared for lots of pets belonging to my family and friends such as dogs, cats, and birds. Because of this, I understand that every pet has different needs, routines, and personalities, but they all deserve the same love, patience, and care. I’m responsible, reliable, and truly love getting to know each pet and making them feel safe and comfortable. I’m currently a business college student and take all of my classes online, which gives me a very flexible schedule. This allows me to have plenty of time throughout the day to care for pets, whether that means going on walks, making drop-in visits, or spending quality time with them. I genuinely enjoy being around animals, so I’m excited to make pet care a meaningful part of my routine. I provide loving, attentive care based on each dog’s individual needs and routine. For doggy day care, I will provide plenty of playtime, attention, bathroom breaks, and a safe, comfortable environment. For dog walking, I make sure dogs get a safe and enjoyable walk suited to their energy level. During drop-in visits, I provide fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I always follow the parent’s instructions and treat every dog like my own.
“This was my first experience with Diane, and she did a fabulous job! She kept me updated on her pet care visits with my cat, and it really put my mind at ease! She is very friendly and communicative - I’d happily utilize her services again. Thank you Diane!”
“Angelina did such an amazing job with Millie. The house was clean and everything in order. She even brought me a roll of toilet paper because I ran out before my trip! I look forward to booking with her again!”
About: I have taking care of pets since I was a little girl. I myself have two small/medium dogs who have been part of our family for many years, and who I love very much. Family friends have asked me in the past to take care of their dogs so I have quite experience with dog sitting. I am currently not working but will begin school soon this month but I will only be attending school twice a week and I am very flexible with my schedule to accommodate yours and your pets. I am looking to care for pets at the clients home whenever is necessary. I am willing to spend the night at my clients home if necessary I am very flexible with my schedule and will care for my clients pets.
About: I love pets and I’ve taken care of dogs for friends and family, along with my own pup for 10 years. Im also experienced with senior dogs. I work from home full-time, which makes it easy for me to adapt my schedule to pet sit on your preferred schedule. I’m also very punctual and great at accommodating your needs! I can pet sit at your home, vacation home, hotel, or wherever you might need me. For house/pet sitting, I will send a daily update/photos at the minimum, but can send more depending on your preferences. I’m here to ensure your pup is safe and well taken care of while you’re away! Please note that I require confirmation of flea preventative treatment before pet-sitting. I have a flexible, work-from-home schedule and no kids which allows me to have a very adaptable schedule to pet sit. I’m up early and adjust walk schedules based on temperature in the desert. I can do drop-in or pet sitting at your home. I’m very clean and tidy and will take care of your pets as if they were my own!
“I felt very at ease knowing Kimberly would be coming to check on my two cats. She has a warmth about her and lots of experience with animals so I knew they wouldn't be scared of an unfamiliar person coming over. I'm happy to have found someone to check in on them if needed. Thank you, Kimberly!”
About: Hi, I am Savannah! While I am new to the Rover community, I am not new to caring for pets. I have cared for dogs and cats since childhood, and I am always the first person friends and family trust to look after their pets. Whether it is a walk or a drop-in, rest assured your pet is in fabulous hands. Pet care fits well into my routine as a college student. Monday–Thursday, I am in class from 2-3:10 in Indio. (Please account for travel time when booking around those hours.) Instructions on how to best care for your pet(s) are always appreciated as every pet is unique and has their own routine I can follow!
About: I care for animals as if they are my own. I was raised around dogs my entire life and enjoy there company. I have been pet sitting since I was 14 and have enjoyed it every day! I am full open at the moment. I was recommended this app by my cousin and I am thrilled to give it a try. I work evening events typically for 4 hours. I on average work about 2-3 days out of the week. I would play with the pup and give them all the scratches that they could ask for. I make sure that the environment not only meets the parents standards but the pups as well.
About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my ability to cater to pets of all ages and needs, including providing patient care for senior pets and gentle, consistent training for puppies. I also have a keen eye for recognizing changes in behavior or health, ensuring your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I’m a coach during the middle of the day, but mornings and nights i’m available. I’m also usually completely open on weekends. I can adjust to your schedule as needed. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play and relax, along with a consistent routine to ensure comfort and stability. In a client’s home, I follow their specific care instructions closely, maintaining the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, exercise, and attention, so they feel secure and stress-free in their familiar surroundings.
“I have three large dogs — which is no small feat — and finding someone I trust with them is everything. Our sitter was absolutely incredible. She didn’t just watch them; she was fully engaged, spending more time playing with them than I usually get to myself. My dogs can be a handful, and she handled them with so much energy and love. I came home to three happy, tired pups, which says it all. Highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with big or high-energy dogs!”
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.

About: I have had dogs for over 40 years. My family and friends have entrusted me with their fur babies. I recently moved to the desert 15 months ago.

About: I've had 2 dogs my whole life. Both which lived over 10 years each. I've also taken care of my daughters 3 labs since they were puppies.

Please feel free to contact me anytime. Monday through Friday are the best days for me. I don't have any dogs so I don't have to worry about that.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a La Quinta stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in La Quinta. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
