“Alan & Joe were amazing with Sammie. She’s a bit timid when meeting new people. Yet they had her feeling comfortable, and getting belly rubs within minutes of leaving her! Also, they take great pictures and send as many updates as you’d like. Definitely will be using them for future stays!”
“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.”
“Osamu is an extremely caring, thoughtful, dependable, and responsive sitter. We couldn’t have asked for better care when we left our dog with him and his husband in their lovely home for two weeks. He provided multiple photos daily along with newsy updates. If I could leave a six star review, I would!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Luz sent me pictures of my senior dog sleeping, walking on a brick path, smelling grass, and roaming in a wooded area. I could tell that Cici was happy and that she was in good hands boarding at Luz's property! I appreciated that I didn't have to worry about her.”
“Matt was able to take George with short notice and provided him with a beautiful home and yard in my absence. I particularly liked that George had opportunities to meet other dogs and build his social + play skills!”
“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.”
“Geri was the best! Don't be fooled by her stern-looking profile photo; she is anything but! Super stylish and kind, with a huge heart. Our Roxy was very happy with her stay with Geri, and her home is beautiful, and every detail was accounted for in making it super doggy friendly. Her lil pup is also very sweet and got along very well with our picky, not-usually-a-dog-person dog, Roxy, which says a lot. Anyway, look no further, we highly recommend choosing Geri for your doggy needs!!”
“Unfortunately, we had to pick up our dog early. However, ARY was very accommodating and helpful with transitioning our furry baby to a friend for his continued stay. She was very communicative and shared plenty of photos of Casper enjoying his stay with her.”
“We can't say enough good things about Louise! She took Raymond into her home and right from the first meeting, we knew he was going to be in the best care. He can be a bit pushy with other dogs but she let him play with her Lacey and they both had such a good time. Louise sent daily updates and photos and we didn't worry about him at all knowing he was in a great place. We highly recommend Louise if you're looking for the best in pet care!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my pit bull with Tony. She is a senior dog, so I appreciated the updates on how she was eating and pooping. Tony sent lots of pictures and communicated promptly. Cici had a nice relaxed time and I could tell that Tony was very caring.”
“Samantha was so lovely and responsive, with much dog expertise! She made sure Oswald felt right at home and I would highly recommend her for anyone needing to board their dog! Thanks Samantha!”
“Our little Harriet had the best time with Shelly! Thank you for taking such good care of her while we were away. We will certainly call upon you again the next time we go away.”
“The perfect stay for your fur child while away! I booked with Mike Last minute due to a health emergency and he went above and beyond to take care of my golden puppy crickett! He sent me lots of pictures and updates that made me feel stress free and could see how great off a time she was having! 10/10 will book again!”
“Jackson was great! Super on top of communication and I felt very comfortable leaving my two dogs with him overnight. I was grateful for the updates with pictures. The pups were as happy as could be when I picked them up. I definitely recommend Jackson and will use him again!”
“Eric was very communicative, friendly, and great with Nelly. He sent lots of updates and photos! We know our dog was in good hands and will be using him again to sit for us.”
About: Dogs have always found their way to me. I've been around them most of my life, and there's something about calm, consistent energy that they seem to respond to. A friend would tell you I'm the person dogs gravitate toward at a party, and I'd say that's probably the most honest qualification I can offer. My most meaningful experience came with my own rescue, a shepherd mix I adopted at 7 months, trained from scratch, and cared for through 15 years of life, including her final year as a senior dog with mobility needs. I became practiced at daily medication administration, wound care, and the kind of patient, attentive routine that older dogs need. Senior dogs are a specialty I genuinely enjoy and take seriously. I work from home full-time, which means your dog won't spend the day alone. I'm here, present, and engaged — great for dogs with separation anxiety or those who simply do better with a steady human nearby. I take one dog (or one bonded pair) at a time, so your pet gets real individual attention. My home in Palm Springs is clean, quiet, and comfortable with direct access to a large greenway for on-leash walks right from my back patio. I know the desert schedule well, so in warmer months walks happen early morning or evening when it's safe and comfortable. I have a car and am happy to help with pickup or dropoff when needed. I'm comfortable with oral medications, mobility assistance, and dogs with special routines. My home is single-level — no stairs. I prefer dogs to sleep on their own bed or the floor (I'll have a comfortable spot ready), and I take one guest at a time to keep things calm and personal. Meet-and-greets are always welcome before a booking.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Palm Springs is $60
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palm Springs
Words cannot express how happy we were that our Luna was with Sam. It was our first time away from each other. It’s such a relief knowing that our fur baby was so well cared for. We were extremely appreciative of all the photos and communication that was shared too. Luna has made a lifelong connection with Sam and his partner. Thank you again for everything! 🥰🤗🫰🏼
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.
This was my first time using Tony and it was a great experience from start to end. Communication with him was easy and very responsive. He and his wife put me at ease from the moment we first met, so i felt confident Frankie would be in great hands. His wife even took notes of everything i was mentioning about my dog to make sure they remembered all the details. The house is very clean and organized with lots of cozy places for Frankie to hang out. The yard is totally enclosed with a grassy area off the patio and there's a park with shady trees directly across the street for easy walk breaks. Tony kept me informed with pictures daily and let me know how well Frankie was doing. I highly recommend Tony and his wife and would not hesitate to book him again.
Emma was amazing with our 2 boys. This was their first time with a dog sitter & they came back looking extremely happy. Emma was very responsive within a minute of each message. We even forgot to pack the dog food with last minute packing & she went to the store and got our boys some food. We will definitely be rebooking her while we are here in Palm Springs!! 10/10 👌🏾
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.
Dolores took such great care of our dog Daisy! Sent pictures and updates regularly or as requested, followed all care instructions, and gave Daisy love the entire week! Daisy came home with a new toy given to her by Dolores for Christmas. I would leave Daisy with Dolores again for sure! Thank you Dolores!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Palm Springs on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 445 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 rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
92% of Palm Springs sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Palm Springs landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
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.
