“Kyla has been great with our two dogs for walks during the week while we are at work. She is friendly and the dogs love her. She always gives notice if she has to change the schedule and has been understanding when we have a change.”
About: I grew up on a farm in England with working dogs, which gave me a love for animals and led me to a life working professionally with them. After 32 years of running my own pet care business in Los Angeles, I relocated to the Coachella Valley where I continue to walk, exercise, and socialize dogs, while also working as a dog trainer. I'm available Monday thru Friday from 7am until 5pm, so we can work out walks and visits depending on your schedule and your dog's needs. Your dog will always be walked on leash, with the exception of fenced dog parks. Dogs can be crated during transport, if that makes them more comfortable. With my many years of experience, I know exactly how to work with dogs with a focus on the safety, calm, and happiness of the animal.
“This was our first time using Rover, and therefore our first time having Jon walk our dog. We asked Jon to come by each day at 7, as it gets pretty hot here in the desert quite early in the morning. Sammi is used to hour long walks as well. We can say Jon did not disappoint! He was at our house every morning at 7 on the nose and gave our Sammi a full hour walk each day. They walked a mile plus on each journey and Sammi looked forward to seeing him every day. Could not have asked for a better experience!”
About: I love dogs as family, I am patient and caring, peace of mind guaranteed. I’ve have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs who require extra care. My husband and I work from home. He tends to his landscaping business and I work at Walter Clark. Being home allows us to spend time with the dogs and to give them the attention and care that they require. I have a big yard with grass which is great for dogs to run and play, as well as a spare room with toys and air conditioner.
“Faith was great. She was available on short notice and my kiddos didn’t even bark at her in spite of the face mask she was wearing! Dexter enjoyed his walk very much and slept very well last night.?”
“Elyza walked my dog Maggie for ten days while I was away for the holiday. I reached out to Elyza last minute who got back to me immediately. We did a meet and greet with my dog; it was immediately clear to me that Elyza really adores animals and that she had a genuine interest in my dog. While I was away, she kept me updated with photos and answered any concerns I had. Elyza is reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again:”
About: I worked at Petco for two years and was in charge of animal care for small animals, reptiles and birds. I have also had a few of my own small animals at many points. I have been a reliable dog sitter and walker for family and friends for over 4 years. I am currently freelancing and available any time of day. I can provide focused care for your animals and multiple walks for visits as needed. I am unavailable to take in animals at my home, but I am very comfortable with providing care in your home. Following instructions and understanding how your routine works.
About: I’ve rescued senior pets for over a decade and have plenty of experience with puppies, cats, and pets with big personalities. I run my own business and mostly work from home, so your furry fam will get all the attention, love, and weird little chats they deserve. I’m all about keeping animals comfy, happy, and feeling like they’re right where they belong! Since I work from home and set my own hours, I can easily build my day around your pet’s routine. Whether it’s morning walks, midday play breaks, or cozy overnight hangs, I’m flexible—and fully present. Your pet gets consistent care, attention, and yes, a well-stocked snack stash. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, their safety and comfort always come first. I maintain a clean, calm environment, stick closely to their routine, and pay attention to the little details—like favorite nap spots or treat preferences. I believe in clear communication, regular updates, and creating a space that feels safe, familiar, and full of love (plus the occasional squeaky toy).
About: I’m very observant and caring with pets. I have a lot of experience in senior care. My own dog, who passed in 2024, lived to 15 years old and was blind and diabetic. Because of him, I’m comfortable with special care needs. I am a Registered Nursing student at College of the Desert and classes are currently in session (9/2/25-12/19/25) so my availability is open on weekends only. Unfortunately my home does not allow pets so I can only sit in the pets/your home! I am excited to meet your fur baby and give them all my love, care and attention! I like to send a lot of photos and videos because your comfort is my comfort (Unless you ask me not to!) One thing that really helps things go smoothly is a detailed schedule & notes (written or typed) for your pet if they have any. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to keep your pup safe and happy.
About: Since I was 10, I have been walking and pet sitting all kinds of animals. I love animals and have plenty of experience. I have worked with pets of all ages from puppies and kittens to senior pets. Additionally, I have been a volunteer at a local animal shelter for 2+ years. I am currently only doing walks and drop in visits and I have open availability to walk your pet whenever you need me. I prefer to do walks around noon or in the afternoon. I have my own pets who I take great care of and you can trust me to care for your own pet as well. My open availability allows me to spend time with your pet whenever needed.
About: I’m still quite new to this but I have a few munchkins of my own to know how to handle them. I’ve done some pet sitting when I was younger and found it to be a lot of fun. I want to be more active so walking your pets is perfect for us both! I’ve lived with animals my whole life so I have so much compassion for them. I have a lot of patience and love for them all. I would love for you to have trust in me to do my best for your pet. I know I have little experience but a lifetime of caring for animals; big and small. I am currently a part time server so my schedule is always changing, I mostly work nights most days. The days i’m off and available I’ll be able to be around as many hours as needed. Weekends are unsure depending on my schedule, if anything I’d be available in the mornings and late nights. I unfortunately can’t board any pets at my home. My own pets are all inside pet’s except my dogs of course, my dogs have a fenced in backyard and go on daily walks themselves. My pups are 4 years old but aren’t fully socialized to other dogs so I wouldn’t feel 100% safe to board pets at the moment. I also have cats, they are my personal favorite, all whom I’ve had for many years. What can I say i’m a animal person. I have a few exotic pets; a snake and two geckos who stay in cages!
