“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!!”

“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.”

“Matt was absolutely incredible! He stayed with our dog Nipsey for 3 days. Communication was outstanding, we got daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us total peace of mind. Will definitely rebook again!”

“Amazing job looking after our Weimaraner while we were out on holiday for a week. So flexible and understanding when our flight got delayed, and kept us updated with pics. Thank you again Whitney and Justin you guys are the best!”


“Absolutely the best. I have a difficult dog, and Candace was extremely confident and loving with her. I have full peace of mind when she's watching my dog. Thank you Candace!”

“Kevin was great. His communication was fabulous keeping us posted on our little boy. He even sent pictures, which we really appreciated. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to know their pet is in good hands.”

“Monte loved his stay with Maggie! Her home is full of play toys, doggie beds and a fenced back yard to play in. She also sent pictures of their walks together and his buddy Jacob who was also staying with them. I will always contact Maggie to take care of my boy -he was well loved and treated like a prince while we were away!”

“Katie took wonderful care of my special needs dog in a short notice situation. She was very easy to communicate and was flexible with me on pick up and drop off. She sent me lots of pictures during my dog's stay and checked in with me often. I can't recommend her enough! Most people would not open their home to a medical special needs dog but Katie did without a second thought. Thanks again for the wonderful experience. So grateful to have found you”

“THE BEST! When simba and I originally met Brandon and William we knew we had found our dogs best companions! They were so gracious to invite us in and show us the space Simba would be staying in. On Simba's visit we were always provided updates and photos. Brandon and William are so kind and loving, your pet will go to the best home. Truly so appreciative for their care! Thank you!”

“Why can’t we give six stars?! Elizabeth went well above and beyond taking care of our young 4 month old puppy Daisy! She sent constant photos and updates, helped her a ton with her potty training and took her for walks! If Elizabeth is available we will be choosing her to watch Daisy from now on. Can’t recommend her enough!!”

“Samantha was very responsive, sent pictures and a video of my dog, and was very kind and generous when I was late for dropping off and picking up my dog. The home and backyard was a great environment for my siberian husky and she was great to work with. I would absolutely recommend her help to anyone needing a dog sitter if you're in the area.”

“Lynn did a great job with Yogi! She has a nice place with a great patio where Yogi enjoyed hanging out with her dog, Lucy. Lynn gave Yogi some exercise with walks and visiting the dog park. She was also great about sending updates and pictures regularly. We look forward to using her services again in the future!”

“We have used Rover for a couple of years and Brandon excels at communicating, which provides such a comfort ! He is flexible and demonstrates patience and handles our big boys with ease My chocolate lab does not like strange men and he took a shine to Brandon ! At pickup they were happy and non stressed Thank you !! We will be spreading your name amongst our friends!”

“Alan and Joe were wonderful! We left out elderly dog with them for the night and they treated him like royalty. Warm and friendly, with a lovely home. Highest recommendation.”

“This was the best experience. Sam was caring and professional and my dog kept kissing him when she left. If your looking for a pet sitter in Palm Springs go no further. I received constant emails, photos and videos of my happy young dog.”


About: Hi, I'm Sam, I have been a dogwalker/ pet sitter for more than 12 years. I'm a graduate of Dog Tech Academy and I'm also Pet CPR certified. I also volunteered. at SF Animal Control Center where I take care of all breeds of dogs. At the SF Animal Center I took classes in animal behavior, training and walking. I offer daytime walks around your neighborhood parks and in-house visits for your furry friends. I am also available for dog boarding or sittings at your place.. I live in Cathedral City and I have transportation so location can be flexible. References provided upon request. Thanks! Sam I currently have an open schedule so dogs that I take care of get my full attention. I also take one dog at a time, unless they are dogs that come from the same household. I have a large fenced yard and a gated front area so dogs are safe when they stay at my house. They are also welcome in every area of my home. I follow instructions provided by the pet owner when sitting at the dog's home.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Thousand Palms on Rover is $44.4 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 .

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.
91% of Thousand Palms 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 Thousand Palms 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 Thousand Palms 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 Thousand Palms.
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 Thousand Palms 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.
