“Holly is an excellent pet sitter! She is reliable and very responsive. She takes care to send detailed reports of her time with my kitties and I always appreciate her help. Thank you, Holly!”
About: I had two dogs growing up I loved so much. My friends and family run to me when they have any type of dog service needed as they know I love animals. I have done plenty of walks, overnight services, and drop-ins. I adore dogs so so much and have a strong passion to give them top quality care as if they were my very own! I walk, sit, and board dogs full time. I take pet care as a seriously job. I am available for early mornings, late nights, and in between! I have open availability and aside of that am a stay at home mom. I recently moved away from my childhood home where we had to dogs. But I would go on walks with them every single day and took care of a lot of their daily needs. I treat every single dog as if they were my own. I truly believe dogs are not just pets but are family members who deserve the same level and care as a child.
“Emily was just amazing! She really loves the dogs and treats them as her own. I love the pictures she sends daily and she even took the time to do a meet and greet and get to know us and the pups. Highly reccommend and will be using her again in the near future!”
“Alexis is FANTASTIC!!!! I came home to a sparkling clean home, kitties well taken care of, she even vacuumed and cleaned up. She sent me pictures of the cats every day and even my very shy boy cat loved her! She’s gonna be my go-to catsitter now, terrific job!”
About: I'm an all animal loving former veterinary technician who recently came into a lot of free time. I would love to watch/walk/play with your furry friends and keep your mind at ease when you can't! I'm currently in between jobs so I have full daily/ nightly availability. I can likely come by for whatever preference you have. Super flexible! I'm very much obsessed with animals and treat them with the utmost respect. Animals tend to love me as well. I was a former Vet Tech and I have experience with administering medicine.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for about 10 years, including my own pets as well as dogs and cats for family, friends, and clients. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, refilling water, basic cleanup, giving pets attention, and following detailed instructions from owners. I try to keep pets active, calm, and cared for while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient with different personalities, whether a pet is energetic, shy, stubborn, or just needs extra reassurance. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine because I’m active, flexible, and already spend a lot of time walking and being outdoors. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and care visits depending on the day and time. I do my best to communicate clearly, show up on time, and make sure each visit is handled with care from start to finish. I’m happy to follow the owner’s routine so their pet feels as comfortable as possible. I take safety seriously and always follow the owner’s instructions for each pet. During walks, I stay aware of the surroundings, keep pets secure on leash, and avoid unsafe situations with other animals, traffic, or distractions. In the home, I make sure food, water, doors, gates, and any special care instructions are handled properly. I also like to send clear updates so owners know their pet was cared for, safe, and happy.

About: Over 20+ years of experience pet sitting. Reliable and attentive sitter with proven experience providing safe, loving and structured care for dogs and cats. I am dedicated to maintaining routines, daily walks, feeding schedules, administering oral medications, etc. I can provide house sitting where your pet can stay in their own sanctuary while you are away or your pet can some and stay with me. I also can provide stop-ins where I can walk your pet at designated times that work best for you. I LOVE animals and it is very hard to find someone you can trust that will take care of your pet when you're away. I am providing this service as I know I will always treat any animal like I treat my own - like a Queen. I am an Army veteran and I have a Masters Degree in Information Technology Project Management. Why do I do this? I work remotely so getting any excuse to get out of the house to go and see a happy dog - I am there for it.

About: *I ONLY TAKE ONE CLIENT AT A TIME* *DOGS MUST BE CRATE TRAINED* I've cared for dogs for most of my life, including my own dogs as well as my client's dogs. As a housekeeper for many years, I was the natural choice when my clients needed a pet sitter. Their pets became like my very own. Now that we no longer have a dog in our home and so I enjoy caring for my client's "borrowed" dogs while they are out of town. Hablo español. My husband and I work part-time. Our schedules allow at least one of us to be home all day so your pet will be closely monitored for their safety. I have a fenced-in yard and no other pets in my home. I require a meet & greet before the booking to meet your dog and for you to meet me to make sure we are a good fit. For our safety as well as your dog's safety, I require proof of current Rabies vaccination. At this time, we do not accept more than one client at a time. This is for your pet's comfort and safety. We require a meet & greet with you and your pet before confirming any boarding visit.
“Stephanie was so great with Onyx, going above and beyond during the time she spent with him! She kept us informed, was very communicative & sent lots of pics!! We appreciate her ♥️”
About: I had 2 dogs growing up, and currently have an Australian/Husky mix! She was a puppy when I got her, so I have tons of experience with younger/older dogs! I work full time, however I am available Monday-Friday before 8am and after 5pm! I’m available all day and night on both Saturdays and Sundays! Playing with and giving animals affection is my go too, to make sure they feel loved while their owners are away. Feeding and walking is a priority as well.
About: Caring for digs has always been a joy and calling. From playful pups to gentle seniors, I have provided warm and attentive care with daily walks, cuddles and companionship. I treat every dog like family making sure they feel safe, loved and understood. Their wagging tail says it all! I stay at home so your dig will receive a lot of attention. I Know how to Take care if they need special diet and medication. I live in an apartment bit take my dog out for walks frequently so they have plenty exercise.they are also allowed in my bed or furniture.
About: I’ve been a dog owner on and off for over 20 years. I have rescued two pit bulls one of which I spent a considerable amount of time and money getting trained. I picked up a few tricks along the way. I’m currently working full time but have enough free time and miss having a dog to walk. While I’m not ready for the commitment of a new pet I am ready to take good care of yours when you need someone to. I will care for your pet according to your specifications. I have had dogs all my adult life and know how specific we can be in how we care for our animals.
About: Hi, I’m Sarah! I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently have a Shih Tzu and a small bird. I love all types of dogs and enjoy long walks and playful activities. With a flexible schedule and being an early riser, I’m ready to provide your pup with lots of love and attention. Plus, as a photography enthusiast, I’ll send you plenty of adorable photos and videos of your furry friend! I can’t wait to meet you and your dog! -Sarah- I work in a school and I am home on weekends. Our daily routine after work includes going to the beach, taking a swim in the pool, going on dog adventures. Reilly is our Shih Tzu and she runs the house. We often joke its Reilly’s world my husband and I are simply guests in her house, lol. We have a fenced-in yard, one floor, and plenty of fun to go around!
About: I’m the designated pet caretaker in my neighborhood! Neighbors always ask me to stay in their homes and take care of their pups, love it! I’m a full-time college student, I take in-person and online classes, whenever I’m done with classes for the day I’m able to care for your pets :) I have had three dogs and two cats in my own home, I make sure they always have food, water, get walked, change the little box when needed; I’m very comfortable taking care of any dog or cat of any size.
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, birds, bearded dragons, and snakes in my home, along with random outdoor critters that my mom would find and nurture back to health! I love spending time with almost all animals (sorry fish, not you), and I am on this app to connect with local animal lovers and help out the community while I work from home! I feel bad for animals that have to stay home alone all day while their human goes to work, I'd rather they be my coworkers! At least their drama is related to sniffing butts, scratching stuff, and treats, not office politics and squabbles. I work from home 4-5 days per week and love when I can take a break and snuggle with a furball or go for a stroll with a doggo! Nothing better for stress relief than that! Including for the four legged friend! At my place I have a good fenced in yard with a pool. If at your place, it's pretty much the same drill - I'll work for a couple hours at a time and take a break to spend time with the little guy/girl. I'm a fan of pets and playtime with treats (if permissable), a way for me and the buds to stretch our legs and our minds. It's not good for anyone to be cooped up for too long! A little fresh air goes a long way! I even carry my cat out to the patio at least once a day to squint at the sun and scout for lizards/leaves/wind blowing
About: I’ve always loved being around animals and caring for them. I currently have a small senior dog, my sweet little baby (a Yorkie/Maltese mix), so I’m very familiar with daily care, patience, and paying attention to a pets individual needs. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and happy. I also helped care for another pet for about a month, where I kept the owner updated daily with photos and messages so they felt reassured their pet was safe and well cared for. They were very happy with the care and even asked me to watch their pet again. I enjoy going on walks and spending quality time playing with pets, but I also understand the importance of being gentle and patient - especially with older or more sensitive animals. I’m committed to treating every pet like family and providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment. Im generally available every day, including evenings and weekends (except Sunday 5-8pm), with most of my time open for walks, playtime, and pet care. I work part-time, but i always comunícate promptly to make sure your pets are cared for reliably. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable enviroment for all pets, whether in my home or theirs. Pets in my care are always supervised, given plenty of attention, and kept on their regular routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. I maintain a clean, safe enviroment and supervise pet closely to prevent them from getting into anything harmful. My own small senior dog has a sensitive stomach, so im used to keeping floors and accessible áreas free of any food or objects that could be dangreous. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, secure, and happy while they’re in my care.
“Emily was awesome! Came before to visit the babies before our actual dates needed and then took great care of them during the entire visit. Would definitely use her again when we travel!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Palm Springs
I was nervous leaving Lucy alone, Shyanne was amazing and made me feel so much better. Shyanne provided me with detailed updates every drop in visit and followed all of the directions for her food, and Lucy looked so comfortable and happy in the photos. Shyanne will be the first person I contact next time I leave town. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jorden has taken care of my dog and cat many times now for various weekend trips and my longest two week vacation. She has always been readily available and great with the animals. My dog is a big German shepherd and she handles him with ease and even does his eye drops twice daily. Jorden is very reliable and will always be my go-to sitter.
Nathalia was so prompt in responding to my request. By the next day we set up a meet and greet and she cared for my boys for 3 days. Nathalia kept me updated consistently through messaging and photos. My youngest boy is a rescue who came from a really bad sitch prior and still suffers from severe anxiety. Nathalia understood his needs and made me feel like she had a great understanding of his needs. I can’t express the gratitude of communication with or without the pups, and that put me at ease. I have never left my boys with anyone and this gave me severe anxiety. Again, Nathalia eased this anxiety by telling me she had a dog with some issues as well, which added to my level of comfort. I really appreciated her care, and would definitely recommend Nathalia and would use her services again if needed. Thank you Nathalia!
Daniel is great. Very professional, communicates very well and took notes during our meet and greet to make sure he covered all the bases. He sent pictures of his visit with my dogs and I felt confident that they were well carried for while I was out. Would recommend and use would use again. Thanks so much
Ashley was amazing with the boys! I booked last minute for a work trip and she was there to take care of my pets as if they were her own. She sent me updates on them and answered all my questions. Ashley even cleaned up the messes they made. My cat is very picky with people and he loved her! She was also able to help me out when my flight got delayed over 6 hours and come back one more time for me, a true life saver. I will be using her every time!!
Estuve fuera del país por casi 2 semanas y Welmis cuidó de mi perrita Lulú. Lulú tiene 16 años y algunas limitaciones por su edad. Gracias al afecto y responsabilidad de Welmis, yo pude disfrutar de mi viaje sabiendo que Lulú estaba en muy buenas manos. Admiro de Welmis su puntualidad, el seguimiento de mis instrucciones y el respeto a mi hogar. Recibí información diaria del estado de Lulú así como también fotos, lo cual me hacía sentir muy tranquila. No dudaría en solicitar su servicio en el futuro si lo llego a necesitar.

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 Palm Springs 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Palm Springs choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Palm Springs with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
