“We've now used Skyla twice, and she is amazing! Our cat Fudgie loves her, and we know she's in excellent hands. If you're looking for a cat sitter who's caring, attentive, and trustworthy, Skyla is an excellent choice!”
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.
“Kayla was amazing to have for our 2 cats! She gave them love and treats, and was always on time. She did amazing, would certainly ask her to help again!”
“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!”
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: I’ve grown up with 3 pups of my own who are back home in Philadelphia while I’m in medical school! My roommate of 4 years had a senior cat of her own, so I am well versed in the needs of both cats and dogs. :) I’m currently in my 3rd year of medical school doing my rotations throughout the Palm Beach area! Dropping in on some furry friends or spending the night with them is something I’d love to be able to do when not in the hospital :) I’ll treat your pets like my own! They’ll get all the hugs, kisses, and snuggles - whatever they need. Safety is my priority and they will be treated like family.
“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!”
“Stephanie was detail-oriented, and she kept us updated throughout her drop-in visits. Zee was so happy to see her. We could not be happier with her services!”
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.
About: I love house sitting because it gives me the opportunity to experience new places, meet wonderful people, and spend time with amazing animals. There’s something so special about getting to care for a home and the pets that make it feel like one. I’ll always treat your home with respect and keep you updated along the way so you can relax and have total peace of mind 🐾 I’m currently working part-time and living at home with my folks, so I’ve got loads of free time to hang with your babies. I can come stay with them at your place, or stop by and bring them out for adventures! Unfortunately, I can’t invite them over to my place— My labradoodle Rosie gets a little jelly and is a big fan of personal space. Because of my flexible schedule, I’m able to devote the care and attention your pets require in the comfort of their own homes without interference. It’s just you and me, pal! (Be warned, I may become their new bestie)
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! We’re Angie and Julio, siblings and lifelong animal lovers. Since we were little kids, we’ve always been surrounded by pets—mainly dogs and cats. Whenever family or friends needed help, we were the ones taking care of their pets, and we truly enjoy it. Recently, we’ve had more free time, so we’re excited to dedicate that to walking and caring for your pets. We always make sure every animal under our care receives love, patience, and the best attention possible. The area where we usually go for walks is calm and spacious, perfect for dogs to exercise and enjoy. Walking dogs is something we love—it’s great for them and an instant stress reliever for us too! With both of us working together, your pets will always have the best care, attention, and double the love! ❤️ Dog Walking Availability: Available daily from 8:00 AM to 7:30 PM. My brother and I work together, so your dog will always have attentive care during walks.🐾♥️ We live in a small Apartment with an unfenced yard, we always make sure that our babies get enough outdoors time and exercise We have doggy gates to make sure they don't wonder off too far and we walk them out every day and when we take care of others pets we ask if they have any specific needs that we have to attend to!
“Catherine is fantastic, I really feel like she cared for my 2 cats like her own. I will be continuing to work with her in the future. I really appreciate everything!!!”

About: Hi, I’m Jahari — a full-time college student with real-world animal care experience, both in and out of the clinic. I currently work at a veterinary office and volunteer at Loggerhead Marinelife Center, so animal care isn’t just a side gig — it’s a passion deeply rooted in my everyday life. With 3 dogs, 1 cat, and 2 birds of my own, I understand how important trust, patience, and personalized care are. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy, a shy senior cat, or a talkative parakeet, I adapt to every pet’s unique needs and personality. I’ve also cared for exotics and farm animals, including goats, chickens, and reptiles — so if your fur baby has feathers, scales, or hooves, they’re in experienced hands. As a full-time college student and current veterinary office employee, I’ve built a schedule that balances academic goals with my passion for animal care. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, with early mornings, evenings, and weekends available for drop-in visits, walks, overnights, and even farm animal care. I also volunteer at Loggerhead Marinelife Center, so working with animals is not just a job — it’s part of my everyday life. With flexible class blocks and experience managing time across multiple responsibilities, I’m able to provide dependable, compassionate care without compromising the attention each pet deserves. I prefer to care for pets in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s usual routine — from feeding and walks to playtime and medication — and tailor my care to their unique personality. With experience in a veterinary office, volunteering at Loggerhead, and caring for a wide range of animals (including dogs, cats, birds, goats, and more), I provide calm, reliable, and compassionate care that helps pets feel safe while you’re away.
“A pet will always know if someone new loves pets or not. From when Delmis first walked in our door Aubie, our bull terrier, found his new best friend. We immediately noticed the attention she gave in getting to know him. She did a great job in taking care of Aubie while we were gone and it was great to feel confident that Aubie was being taken care of. We definitely will use Delmis the next time we are away.”
“Lindsey is amazing! She took such great care of my boy, Toby. I was worry-free during my trip knowing she was giving him so much love and making sure he had everything he needed. I would absolutely ask her to watch him again if needed.”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Palm Springs is $22

Susana is a very sweet and wonderful person. I can tell she’s used to working around animals of all kinds. My Ollie went right up to her as if he knew her all his life. She is very attentive and detailed. Worked with my time needs and arrived right on time when I needed her. I will be using her services again and again. I highly recommend her to any pet parent that wants a really caring sitter! I will be referring her to all my friends!!!
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

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.

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.
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.
