“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!!”
“Alice did an excellent job with our dogs. It was our second time using her. We were gone for ten days for our wedding and felt very comfortable knowing they were in her hands. When our flight was delayed last night she was kind enough to drop them home at no charge so that our babies would be there on arrival. We will definitely use her again!”
“The highest compliment I can give is that Maggie took care of my dogs the way I would. Maggie's care of Slim and Olga was warm and engaging. Daily exercise, a great fenced area, and lots of attention from both Maggie and her delightful son were offered. Highly recommended!”
“Louise was very inviting and reassuring as I had some nerves about leaving my dogs with someone I didn't know for the first time. She sent updates throughout the day on how they were doing. I never felt I had to worry about them in her care. Absolutely recommend Louise. Thank you again!”
“Helen was so loving and attentive to all Chewy's quirkiness. I felt so confident leaving him for an overnight stay. You can just sense the dog lover within her the first time you meet her. I will definitely call on her for both both short and longer stays.”
“We hit the jackpot finding Osamu and Darrell. This was only our second time leaving our beloved pup and he couldn’t have been in better hands. They gave continuous updates/photos and treated Gomi like a part of the family. Gomi felt quickly at home and safe and it showed in the photos they shared. I felt so reassured knowing that he was happy! I really appreciated the kindness and flexibility and I look forward to my return to the area so that Gomi can hang out with these two amazing humans again. Thank you a million times, Osamu and Darrell❤️”
“Attentive, caring, and communicative. Kisses loved her stay and in fat for the first time she ate her food the entire stay. I cannot say enough about the treatment that she received with Elizabeth. You are a rockstar and we will be back.”
“Simba enjoyed his stay with Don. It is very reassuring as an owner to have that trust in someone with your pup, but it means even more when I see Simba’s happiness when he is with Don. I’d never hesitate to have Simba in his care!”
“Our little Bella is quite particular when it comes to new people but Joan and Phil went out of their way to make her comfortable and she had a great time with them. We would highly recommend Joan for your furry family! A warm and loving environment for sure!”
“Angelica was a great sitter. She played with my dog, took her on walks and made sure she felt comfortable at night. She sent photos and updates of Zena's day. I felt very blessed to have her as a sitter. I highly recommend her to other pet owners.”
“Fantastic Dog Sitter!! Julie and her husband went above and beyond expectations. I picked up very happy dogs with the long walks and extra special attention they provided. I very highly recommend!”
“This was my first time boarding my dog so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Dennis exceeded all expectations! He was very communicative, sent photos and videos regularly, and generally took great care of Uni. If we are ever in Palm Springs again I would 100% rebook.”
“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!”
About: I have worked as a foster parent of cats and dogs. I have also worked in a training facility for dogs who needed extreme training. I have also spent many years walking dogs. I work from home and so this is the perfect time for me to board or walk your loved ones. I would love to give my time to help you and your loved ones the time and attention they need. I have a fenced in yard and can walk your loved one daily. I have a crate and you can also provide your own. this service will vary depending on what your needs and wants are and that is something we can work out together.
“Elaine was so nice and so good with the kids! Everything went great, super smooth.. Riley and Maia felt so at home, and even cuddled and slept w Elaine 🤍 10/10 would book again! And highly recommending Elaine to everyone !”
“We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Tony provided for our crazy puppy. From the moment we met him, we felt at ease and we knew our dog would be in great hands. He provided frequent updates, ensured our dog got plenty of exercise and affection, and even went the extra mile to accommodate any special needs. We felt at ease knowing our puppy was in such capable and loving hands. We highly recommend Tony to anyone seeking top-notch care for their pet and will definitely use him again if we’re in the area!!!”
“Carl was the best Rover!!!!! Our dog Phoebe instantly bonded with him and his pups. Very clean house. Beautiful back yard for playing. He took great care of Phoebe and she adjusted great, which isn’t always the case. He send daily updates and even let Phoebe snuggle with him while sleeping, which she is used to at home. So nice she was welcomed as part of the family! We will definitely be using Carl in the future! 5/5 stars!”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Thousand Palms home-away-from-home, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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.
