House Sitting in Thousand Palms

“Desiree loves animals and has owned cats since she was a little girl. She is so good whether they are snuggle bugs and velcro or. more independent or even sassy. Every cat is wonderful to her. She is very trustworthy and respectful of the home and is communicative giving updates and pictures to give us peace of mind while she watches our cat. We miss Callie when we are gone, but the pics help! We highly recommend Desiree for your petsitting needs.”

“Desiree did an amazing job looking after our little guy. She met with us prior to watching him in our home and eased his nerves. We look forward to working with Desiree again.”

“Viviana was an amazing house/pup sitter! She updated us every day with photos and videos, and made sure our pup was spoiled and well taken care of while we were gone for 10 days. She's very communicative and responsible, and left the house clean/tidy. I would highly recommend booking her for house/pup sitting!”

“Kimberly did an amazing job watching Hank and Milo. She followed all instruction, sent fun photos and took great care of our home. We came back to very happy pups and we would definitely use her again in the future!”

“Our puppies were well taken care of for the few days that Darin watched them. Darin sent us pictures of their walkies and play time. Because of his diligence in watching our babies, we were able to enjoy our Holiday without worry. Darin is highly recommended.”

“Mackenzie was amazing with my beagles. My Lily is t friendly with most people and she immediately warmed up to Mackenzie. My home was in perfect condition and my babies were obviously lives and well taken care of for the 3 days I was away. Definitely rebooking her!”

“Christopher was very professional & knowledgeable about dogs, my 100 pound lab liked him very much. He spent one night at my home, and followed my daily routine with Prince William. He made me feel very comfortable about leaving. He kept me up to date on everything. I would highly recommend him, and I will definitely hire him again.”

“We were so happy to find Renee to stay at our house and take care of our dog! She is so nice, took great care of our dog, house and sent wonderful pictures! Look forward to having her stay again.”

“After a number of bad experiences with other Rover sitters, we were grateful to come home to no issues after doing a one night overnight. Thank you, Caitlin!”

“I can't recommend Jon enough, He took exceptional care of my dog and home while I was away. Not only did he ensure that all of my pooch's needs were met, but he also went the extra mile to keep my home tidy and secure. It was such a relief to know that everything was in capable hands, allowing me to not worry during my time away. He's the first person I'll call the next time I need a pet sitter. Thank you, Jon, for your help!”

“Alyssa is great!! She took such good care of our two dogs and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. She communicates well and let’s us know frequently how the dogs are doing, with plenty of photos and information. We would certainly book Alyssa again!”

“It's so difficult when you have a new pup in the house: the dog is still getting used to new surroundings and can easily become fearful when the new "hooman" is away for longer than usual. Matthew stepped in for me and Buddy felt immediately comfortable with him. I returned to no separation issues at all. Matthew went above and beyond while I was away. He is very calm and that rubbed off on Buddy. My Buddy just LOVES Matthew!”

“We had Rui booked for August 17-26 for a long time. As we’re packing for our trip, word comes that a hurricane is coming on the 20th! Rui took great care with our dog (as usual) but the care and effort he put into “battening down the hatches” was above and beyond. I can’t say enough about how he made sure our dog and house weathered the storm. This was the longest we had been away from our dog, who usually experiences some anxiety when we are away. But it was clear from the images Rui sent and, more importantly, our dog’s happy, carefree demeanor when we got home that he had a great, anxiety-free time with Rui. We are so grateful to have found Rui!”

“Csilla is fabulous! Chelsea loves her and warmed up immediately. She is very attentive to the pickiest feeding and treat schedule and goes above and beyond. We are looking forward to the next trip so Chelsea can spend time with her new favorite sitter.”

“Samira was amazing with our 15 yr old cocker spaniel (who is on 5meds day and night) and cat. She stayed in our home for a week while we went on vacation. Came home to happy pets and a clean house! I’m OCD that that says a lot! Will definitely be using her in the future.”

“Tyler was great. Plenty of pics of the boys throughout our trip and they seemed to thoroughly enjoy Tyler. We will definitely use Tyler again.”

“This was the first time we were leaving our 2 French Bulldogs in someone’s care. Kat did everything to make us feel comfortable and secure with our decision. From supplying references to meeting with us twice prior to watching them to make sure our needs and expectations were going to be met. She ran our energetic one, and gently walked our slug. At night she snuggled and they all watched TV. We were able to enjoy our time away with peace of mind. She’s very caring and truly loved what she does. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”

“Crystal went above and beyond our expectations!!! She constantly gave us updates and plenty of photos of our dogs. I had never tried Rover and tried it in a pinch and would highly recommended how easy and safe it was to use the app BUT again I must say how great Crystal was and would use her again for sure!”

About: My name is Lauren, and I absolutely adore all animals!! I am currently working at a pet hospital where I work as a receptionist and in the back helping with the animals. I am comfortable administering medications and would be more than happy to do light housework!! I work five days a week and am available for drop in visits and walks in the evening during the week and am open most weekends. Pet safety is my number one priority. I will take extra care to ensure that your babies stay safe while in my care. I prefer to use a harness when walking dogs and if you do not have one I can happily provide one.

“Yvonne did an outstanding job taking care of our attention junkie pup ❤️🥰. She is attentive, great at communication, and responsible. Can’t recommend her enough!!!!”
