Pet care experience

Attentive Dog Dad

Although I have been a lifetime animal lover, I have spent the last 10 years caring full time for 4 dogs and 1 sweet kitty. My partner and I are in Palm Springs from November through April and outside Chehalis, Washington from May through October. We love to share extra time and energy to help neighbors with their pet care needs. We currently have one fun-loving 5 year old dog named Nico in the house. He gets multiple walks each day and lots of playtime, and truly loves the company of other dogs.

Boarding • Jun 23, 2026

What a wonderful experience we had using Rover for the 1st time. Scott was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is very caring and took exceptional care with our 2 dogs. He provided frequent updates on how are pets were doing exploring his property and settling down for the evening. We couldn't have asked anything else he could have done to make sure our dogs were comfortable for their stay. Thanks again Scott!

Came in clutch on short notice. Kept our old baby company so we could enjoy dinner out with the family! Thank you!

It was wonderful to work with Scott and the sweet pup Nico. Brass had a great time and came home ready for a nap! I won't hesitate to call again when I need to leave Brass with a great family.

Scott was amazing. He took such good care of Pepper and sent messages, pictures and videos of him during his stay so we always knew he was doing well and was happy!

Doggy Day Care • Apr 27, 2026

Scott was awesome! Very quick to respond and work with us on delays due to weather. Our pups had a great time and tuckered out when we picked them up. Scott also let us know how things were going throughout out the day with pictures. It makes our trip more enjoyable when we know our pups are in good hands while we are out exploring. Our thanks to Scott, and we will look forward to using him again in the future.

We are not working and have complete flexibility over our schedule. We already make Nico our primary focus and would do the same for any dogs we have staying in our home. *Please note that daycare stays over 5 hours will have an additional fee and daycare stays over 8 hours should be booked as a boarding request.

Pets

A typical day

We always begin the morning with a 2 mile walk around the neighborhood for our dog. We can either do a combo walk or we can do a special walk for your pet based on their needs. Our community also has three old tennis courts which now serve as a dog park so we can go there for off-leash play either with our dog or on their own depending on your preference. Also as many potty and exercise walks as needed throughout the day.

Definitely want to know how your dog interacts with other dogs. Our Nico is high-spirited and loves to play a bit on the rough side although he really only does that with a dog who has a similar energy. We would want to meet you and your dog at our home prior to a first stay.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
