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: 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.

Reyanah was very loving and caring! She went above and beyond to take care of our cat Kevin as if he was her own ❤️ The videos and pictures she sent were great and showed us how much Kevin loved having her over to play and take care of his needs. We’ll definitely be calling her every time whenever we need a pet sitter!

Kimberly is a wonderful Cat Sitter and I know that I will use her again to take care of my two cats. Over the Thanksgiving week, she came twice a day to feed and pet my kitties. One cat is very old and Kimberly would give her food near her cat bed, and lots of scratches under the neck. My other cat is an 8 year old male who is very affectionate and loves to meet people. Kimberly talked to him and brushed him after she fed him each time. She treated my cats with LOVE - as if they were her own pets. Kimberley is a truly incredible Pet Sitter!

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.

Robert is caring and concientious. We feel good knowing he's looking in on our cats and that they're under his watchful supervision. It's not easy when cats are aging and their eating habits change, but Robert is understanding of the challenges, and sends us photos which give reassurance. We really appreciate his help!

Sophia is wonderful - this was the second time we hired her to drop in and take care of our kitties. Just like last time, she did a great job taking care of their food/water/litter needs, but also, hanging out with them and giving them some love. Her daily reports and pictures are awesome. On top of that, she also went above and beyond, by bringing in packages, the trash can etc., and she also let us know about an issue with our irrigation system which we were able to get taken care of before it caused any major problems. Bottom line - Sophia is an awesome sitter, who gives us great peace of mind when we travel. We are happy to recommend her, and we will be using her next time.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in La Quinta on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 652 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:

  • 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.
