“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!!”
“Jackson and his home was a great and safe place for us to leave our puppy, Monty. Monty was tired and happy when we came to collect, which was the sign of a great time! Jackson and his family are well versed in all things dog care and both super responsive and accommodating to all timing needs. Would throughly recommend to anyone looking to leave their four legged children in good hands.”
“kevin was very attentive and wanted to make sure he kept our pups’ routine the same. he was patient with our nervous pup. his pups were excellent with our dogs too. he is very responsive. would book with kevin again!”
“This was my first time using Rover and the experience exceeded expectations. Brandon and Billy are awesome guys and I had no concerns after dropping my two dogs off. Thank you both for treating the boys as your own.”
“Awesome with my older Great Dane! He loves going here. Megan is so sweet to try and comfort him when he gets anxious being away from mom & dad. We’ve used her a few times already and have another trip planned next month. We feel Cooper’s in excellent hands with Megan!”
“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.”
“Thank you Erin & Alex for watching our boy over the weekend! You guys were so kind enough to put his daily ointment on without any problems! We can tell he had a great time & misses to guys already!”
“Katie was beyond amazing. She took great care of my furbaby while I was out of state for several days. I was so anxious to leave Brownie with a stranger, but Katie constantly provided me a peace of mind by sending me tons of pictures. I felt so bad when Brownie made a scene when Katie tried to leave him by himself for a very short amount of time to run the errand, so she eventually had to cancel and stay with him all the time during his stay. I felt so sorry, but she was so kind and told me that puppies can be like Brownie when in a strange place. She was very patient with Brownie, and I really appreciate it. She is the perfect person that you can rely on when you can't take care of your furbaby by yourself.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful with Zoey. I could tell from the pictures that she sent me that Zoey was happy and felt right at home. She took her on walks. Her home is set up perfectly for our furry babies. I would highly recommend Elizabeth for your pet sitting needs.”
“Don was great with our dog Jack when we had to go out of town for a few nights! He sent photos to keep us updated and was very accommodating when traffic delays meant we were late for our arranged pick up time. Don clearly loves dogs and has a great approach with them. We'll be back in touch whenever we have to travel again.”
“Becca looked very happy at Sierra's. Lots of pictures and lots of new friends. Nice big yard for the dogs to romp in, so happy to have found Sierra. Will not hesitate to bring Becca again.”
“SO grateful to have found Ken! He couldn’t have been better in communicating with me from the get go! During our time away he checked in daily with photos. We left our 2 elderly dogs (1 has no teeth) and he handled his special food needs, and kept them both on their schedules. One has separation anxiety and Ken tuned into it and provided a loving attentive & calm environment even allowing him to sleep on his bed at night! When we picked them up they were so calm & peaceful and to me this was the result of very exceptional care! You need look no further for a wonderful place to leave your fur children!”
“Joy was absolutely amazing with our dogs while we were away on vacation! From the moment we left, she kept us updated every single day with messages, photos, and details about how they were doing. Knowing our dogs were in such caring and attentive hands gave us complete peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our trip. It’s clear that Joy genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable throughout their stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We are incredibly grateful for all of her care, communication, and professionalism. I highly recommend Joy to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter. We will definitely be using her services again!”
“Joy was an absolute angel. Sent so many photos and videos of our little sweet boy and he had so much fun at her house. Made friends and couldn't thank her enough. Our first time using rover and we were pretty nervous but thanks to Joy we will be using it more often.”
“We left Charlie, our Golden Doodle, with Mike for 12 days. We couldn't have been happier. When we dropped Charlie off at Mike's home Charlie took an immediate liking to Mike and his dog Cooper. We received numerous photos and video's while we were away and it was clear Chalice was having a great time. Mike' home is very dog friendly as is his yard and pool. Charlie really became attached to Mike and Cooper. Our dog has some chronic health problems and of course Mike had no problems dispensing his medications and giving his prescription dog food. When we picked him up after our trip he was happy to see us but did hesitate a bit, apparently not sure he wanted to leave. In summary, Mike is beyond five stars. He clearly treated Charlie as if he was his own dog. Don't hesitate to book with him. You will not find a better person to care for your pet.”
“Maggie was amazing and took such good care of my goldendoodle over the course of a weekend. I loved getting little updates and photos throughout the day to know that he was safe and happy. Would recommend Maggie to anyone!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Thousand Palms on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of July 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 382 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Thousand Palms. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
92% 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.
