About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 9 years old, and have had a passion for animals for as long as I can remember. I have taken care of dogs, cats, and reptiles for friends and family. I am currently looking for a part-time job, but my schedule is generally free to work around when your pet will need care. I am willing to adapt and switch up my schedule to have your pet be my priority. I am familiar with crate training, and I have a great understanding of pet behavior. I have worked with a variety of different animals, each with very unique personalities, and their safety and trust is my priority.
“Sophia is great! She is punctual and loving of my furry baby Magnus. Magnus is also very happy with her and he even gave her his paw! Which was only reserved for family. Magnus and I are happy to have sophia as his sitter”
“Emma did a great job checking in on our German Shepherd, Mya! She was very timely and efficient. Mya looked so happy in all the great pictures Emma shared with us. Would definitely recommend and would use again. Thanks!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including feeding, walking, playtime, and basic grooming. I’m attentive, patient, and treat every pet like my own I am a stay at home mom so I’ll be home with your pet most of the day! And available to go on walks as well I have a fenced yard, and a very friendly husky who loves visitors! Your pet is free to the whole house, can be crated if you need.
“Angela is punctual, reliable, and great at communicating updates. My dog warmed up to her right away, which says a lot. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in good hands while I’m at work. Highly recommend!”
About: I am a cat mom to a bengal cat named Tango. Tango’s favorite activities include playing fetch, taking walks along the Seine (he’s just returned from 2 years in Paris) and play dates with his homies Hammy & Otie (dogs). 🫶🏼 Tango aspires to be a Royal Canin model. We live in a house in La Quinta with a fenced yard, great for playing and exercise while confined. Residential neighborhood near old town and the park. Great area for walks, safe and clean. I mostly work from home, unless I have to travel. Otherwise I am available all hours and can schedule according to your pets specific needs. I care for all pets the same way I would want my kitty cared for. My cat is like my child, he has a very unique personality and style that I have fostered since I got him. I approach each animal according to their unique personality and their owner’s caretaking style.
“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'm a lifelong animal lover whose instinct has always been to care for pets in need—I used to bring home every stray I found! As a devoted dog owner, my own pup is my constant companion. When he can't join me, I hire a trusted sitter, so I understand firsthand the peace of mind that comes from reliable, attentive care. I will treat your pet with the same patience, respect, and detailed attention I expect for my own. You can count on consistent updates and my full focus to ensure your furry family member is safe, happy, and well-cared-for. I work a consistent full-time job with an 8-hour shift, which means I’m available for drop-ins and walks before 7-8 AM and after 6 PM most days. My top priority is providing a safe, trustworthy experience in your home. I follow strict protocols: securing your home (locking doors/gates precisely as found), focusing solely on your pet with no distractions, and adhering meticulously to your instructions for their safety and routine. You’ll receive prompt updates and photos after every visit, so you’re always informed.
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. I am retired and live in a casita so I can give all my attention to your fur babies. I'm available most of the time since I'm retired. I love walking everyday everywhere . 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. And your dog will be safe with me in my secured house.
About: Ever since I was a kid I’ve always had a dog and my family friends have always asked me to take care of their dogs while away. I adapt to any special instructions you may have and am very attentive to them. I believe that dogs are such amazing animals and they deserve the best care!! I work part time right now and do online school at the same time so my schedule is quite flexible. I drive and have a mini suv so if need be I can transport your dog and even take them to vet visits! I am able to check on your dogs throughout the day whether it’s to take them outside, feed them, or take them on a walk.
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: With 25 years of animal care experience, a deep love for animals, a flexible schedule, and excellent references, I'll meet all of your pet care needs. Educated and empathetic, I 'get' people and their animals, and enjoy providing the same level of care that I give my own beloved dog. I'll always bend over backward to ensure that both you and your pet have a wonderful experience. Pet-sitting is a choice for me, and one that I'm making because I love to meet and care for animals. I look forward to making your day or week better by caring for your pet and/or your home while you are away. If there's anything I can do to make your day easier, just ask! I look forward to meeting you! I have a flexible work schedule, and I’m able to work at home whenever I like. I love to get out and run and walk, and can provide just about any breed as much exercise as they need. Unfortunately, my building has some breed restrictions including pit bulls and wolf breeds. I’m happy to look after all breeds for housesitting and walks. I only take one dog at a time into my home, unless it is a bonded pair. I do strongly prefer a meet and greet before hand so we can make sure it is a good fit, both for your pup and for my home. I am committed to making this a positive experience for all of us.I love dogs and will care for your dog as though it were my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - La Quinta
Sophia was absolutely wonderful as a pet sitter. She was kind, loving, and very attentive with my cat. She arrived on time, made sure my cat was well-fed, and even went the extra mile by bringing my mail inside without me asking. I truly appreciated her thoughtful help while I was away. I would definitely recommend her and will absolutely ask for her help again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in La Quinta on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 661 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across La Quinta. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
