“Judith was amazing. She was very good at communicating and sent me lots of pictures of my dog (even though my dog is camera shy). She was really flexible and worked with me when my schedule changed a bit. I will be picking to send Vexy to her house next time we need a Rover.”
“Awesome with my older Great Dane! He loves going here. Megan is so sweet to try and comfort him when he gets anxious being away from mom & dad. We’ve used her a few times already and have another trip planned next month. We feel Cooper’s in excellent hands with Megan!”
“Matthew always takes such great care of our girls. Their home is perfect for pets and has a great outdoor space. I will always book with Matthew when our girls needs a sitter.”
“Todd was amazing with Harper! He said one of his dogs fell in love with Harper and followed her everywhere, which made me feel so go! I will definitely take her to have Todd watch her again! He is amazing!!”
“Alan & Joe took great care of our dog, Sunny, a golden retriever while we went on vacation. We got cute photos and videos of Sunny. At the end of our trip we could see how much Sunny liked them both and that was comforting to us knowing Sunny had a good vacation too!”
“Nueva was a lovely sitter for Johnny. He really enjoyed his stay with her. She updated us throughout the week with texts and pictures, so we could enjoy our vacation knowing that our little dog was having a good time. Would highly recommend, and we will definitely use Nueva again if we travel without our dog.”
About: I am a single man who lives alone and loves animals sometimes more than humans.😂 I can’t think of a time in my life where I didn’t have a dog or cat. My pets are my family. I will give your pets the same attention and care as my own. I am pretty much a homebody so I spent a lot of time with my animals. My dogs are leash trained so we go out for walks around three times a day. Unless you request more of us if not there is a place in the backyard for them to go will keep your dogs on whatever diet you request. My apartment is very animal friendly plenty of toys and beds. I am very cautious I don’t have anything that would could be harmful to pets safely put away.
“I had to book my pups very last minute, with the added complications of one having a recent injury still very much in the healing process. These guys totally put me at ease in what was a highly stressful situation- their home is spotless and yet perfect for dogs, my two girls instantly settled and I was sent the cutest updates. They made accommodations for the injurd pup and administered care. When we picked them up they were so chilled and happy. Highly recommend even if it does make it harder for me to book!”
“kevin was very attentive and wanted to make sure he kept our pups’ routine the same. he was patient with our nervous pup. his pups were excellent with our dogs too. he is very responsive. would book with kevin again!”
“I could not have asked for a better sitter than Emma for my little guy. He can be sassy and from the moment he met Emma he was so stoked to hang out with her. She sent me pictures and updates throughout my whole trip and it was clear she was his new best friend! He was definitely a bit bummed out that I was picking him up from his week of fun with her. I will absolutely be asking Emma to watch him again any time I’m in the area and would recommend her 10/10!”
“Helen was so loving and attentive to all Chewy's quirkiness. I felt so confident leaving him for an overnight stay. You can just sense the dog lover within her the first time you meet her. I will definitely call on her for both both short and longer stays.”
“It was such a great feeling to know that Karma Blue was so well taken care of . She was treated to a beautiful home with a spacious tall fenced backyard, and I was treated to knowing she was being cared for by a responsible pet lover.”
“We love Andranise and so does our dog, Elvis! Our senior boy stayed with her for the first time and she took great care of him. I would not hesitate to have him stay with her again.”
“What can I say about Gloria. She is amazing and is the only one I trust my pets with. My Lilly gets so excited everytime we arrive at Gloria's house. I definitely recommend and trust Gloria for my fur babies.”
“Larry was very kind and responsive to us in regard to arranging for the boarding of our larger dog. He shared some details while she was there and included some photographs. Very helpful in this, our first use of Rover or this kind of service. It is great to know that there are people like Larry willing to open their homes to our cherished four-legged family members!”
“Elaine did a fantastic job watching our little babies. We have never left our dogs with a sitter before and so we were a little apprehensive at first, but everything worked out perfectly. We will definitely be using her again the next time we travel!”
“Let me begin by writing ✍️ that I normally don't take time to review products or services but this time I feel that I must because of the exceptional care Marlene provided for my doggies, Estrella and Ms. Minnie ▪️The attention to detail, videos and photos provided while I was away on vacation made me feel at such ease knowing that my loving doggies were in great hands▪️ Because of it I didn't have to worry at all and enjoyed my time fully aware they were being taken care of by a loving, caring pet sitter▪️ THANK😊YOU MARLENE and may the Universe bless you with great 🖖health, ☮️ peace and love ❤️”
About: I have always grownup with dogs. I currently own 3 dogs and I love being outdoors. Adventures with my pets are always amazing. I feel great joy anytime I hangout with pets. I currently work as an electrical designer engineer. I also run an Airbnb with my partner and we both do Rover together. I work from home Wednesday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday my schedule is flexible. I have a fully fenced home this includes the front of house as well. The outside of the house has cameras to ensure the property is safe. We also have outdoor lighting. We also have two separate backyards one for our pets and the other for your furry friends.
“Diana was great with my baby Smokey. She wasn't bothered by him being anxious and nervous during drop off. I appreciated the picture she sent me of Smokey during his visit. I will book with her again!”

Emily and Nesha were amazing with Mooncake! They gave him time to settle in before introducing Kennemur, and both got along very well together. Emily and Nesha were observant and perceptive to Moo's personality and needs, and they kept us updated with messages and pictures. So appreciative of the care and attention they gave Moo. 💕 We will definitely be rebooking the next time we're in Palm Springs!
I couldn't have asked for a better person to care for my dog, Kevin. He stayed with David and his partner for 6 nights, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. They have a beautiful home, and Kevin clearly felt comfortable and welcome there. They are friendly, responsive, and reliable. David sent updates every day with photos and videos, so I always knew how Kevin was doing and could see how happy he was. I had mentioned how much Kevin loves to play fetch, and they made sure he got plenty of it! I can't recommend David and his partner highly enough, and I'll be booking them again without hesitation. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Kevin!
Would come back again! I had to go out of town for several days so this was my first time leaving our dog in the care of others for multiple days. Cookie was taken care of like she was one of Ari's own dogs. I appreciated the updates. Cookie was often cuddling with Ari or spending time with other dogs. It's typically a really good sign when Cookie is cuddling with an adult. She felt safe. I appreciated Ari's genuine kindness, steadiness and down to earth personality. I felt at ease communicating with Ari. I will be coming back again for Cookie's care in the future. Thank you so much Ari!
Simply put, Megan is amazing! Although we met her only briefly during our meet-and-greet, it was easy to tell that she is a genuinely caring person, so we had complete peace of mind leaving our fur babies with her. We used her pick-up and drop-off service which worked out great. The photos she sent throughout the very long day told the story of how our pups were cared for by Megan.
This is the 2nd time I’ve used Tony and I happily recommend him. He and Audry took great care of Frankie keeping me updated with photos, videos and texts daily to let me know how she was doing. He has a great place and it’s right across the street from a nice grassy park so that was a bonus. I’ll definitely use Tony again in the future.
If you find yourself in need of a dog sitter in Palm Springs, then Vincent (Antonio) is your guy! He was so sweet to our pooch. We could not have found a better person to watch Beau. He even has a nice backyard space for the dogs to roam around. We would definitely use him again if we are in Palm Springs. His house is also very close to downtown which worked perfectly for us.
Dennis took spectacular care of my very large pup. He even picked him up and dropped him off at our house since I wasn’t able to drive him to Dennis’s house. He got plenty of exercise and I got a lot of updates on how he was doing. Highly recommend Dennis for any pet care.
We couldn't have been more thrilled with the care and attention that Mike gave to our dog while we were away. Mike was wonderful during the initial meet and greet -- giving our dog time to explore the house and become comfortable in a new place. Drop off was equally good. Mike sent regular updates and pictures and let us know everything that was happening. We could enjoy our trip because we knew that our dog was having such a good time. Our dog bonded quickly with Mike's dog Cooper, and the pictures and videos of the two of them playing together day and night proved how happy our dog was. We have never seen him that bonded to another dog -- we almost felt bad going to pick him up! Our return travel plans hit a snag when our flight was diverted to LAX, and Mike was super flexible about everything. He wanted us just to focus on our travel plans and it was not an issue for our dog to stay an extra night. We are already talking about where we can travel to next just so our dog can go back and spend time with Mike and Cooper! We would recommend him to anyone without hesitation.
Eric is a wonderful dog sitter - he housed our golden retriever and gave her great care, love and attention. Our dog came home happy and healthy. Eric also sent pictures, cute ones! Lastly, we forgot a few key dog items (leash, collar, etc) and Eric was totally flexible and able to adapt.
Second time this month hiring Kevin for boarding. It is such a relief to be able to drop off my dog, Blue, and know he is being well cared for —and having fun. Kevin takes Blue to his fav place, the Palm Springs dog park, and gives him lots of play time. I got in a jam and Kevin helped me out last minute which I truly appreciate.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Palm Springs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Palm Springs is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $94 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 444 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Palm Springs. 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 Palm Springs 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 Palm Springs home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Palm Springs.
Tip: 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 Palm Springs 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
