“Lacey and her family were amazing! I HIGHLY recommend her. They took such good care of our cat, Fran, for a few nights while we camped in Joshua Tree. It was such a relief to know she was in good hands. Lacey sent pictures, updates, and was a great overall communicator. If we ever end up back in the area, we are for sure using her services again. Thanks again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and multiple rescue dogs with different personalities and needs. Being around dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I understand the importance of providing patience, consistency, and lots of love so they feel safe and comfortable. After my recent move, I don’t currently have a dog of my own, which means I can give your pup my full attention and individualized care while they’re with me. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, reliable hands. I recently moved to the area, so I have a very flexible schedule and am fully available to provide attentive, reliable care for your pet. Because I don’t have a full-time job yet, I can dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. My schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine so they receive the care, attention, and consistency they’re used to. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while in my care. I live in a house with a fully fenced backyard area where dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely, along with regular walks and exercise based on their individual needs and energy levels. Since I am currently without a dog of my own after my recent move, I’m able to provide a calm environment with my full attention focused on your pup. I’m committed to following your pet’s routine, respecting their personality, and providing plenty of supervision, affection, and care. Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my top priority.
“I can't thank you enough, Shawna! This was smudge's first boarding experience and it was clear that he felt safe, confident, and happy the whole time. I had a lot going on this trip and not worrying about him made a massive difference. I appreciate how accommodating, attentive, and thorough you are with pick-up and drop-off, care, and updates. Would definitely book again!”
“We miss Ashley! She took great care of our dogs whenever we needed to leave town. She truly spoiled them and treated them as her own. They also enjoyed playing with her dogs and running around her backyard. Highly recommend if you’re in the 29/JT area or even vacationing out there.”
About: I have over 4 years of hands-on pet care experience and am the proud dog mom of my senior pup, Cookie, and my girl Star. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages, including puppies, senior dogs, and rescue pets.

My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away!☺️ Also provide you with a peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands.🐕🐕🐾 Currently a college student. I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable, attentive care for your pup. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, or overnight care, I’ll make sure your pet gets the love, attention, and routine they deserve. I’ll always communicate with you, send updates and photos, and treat your furry family member like one of my own.✨✨ Your pup will be treated like one of my own while they’re in my care. I have a dedicated, safe space where dogs can relax and feel comfortable. I also have a friendly 3-year-old rescue dog named Stargirl who loves making new friends and playing with other dogs. If your pup prefers their own space or isn’t comfortable around other dogs, that’s absolutely okay! Star can stay upstairs so your pet has a calm, stress-free environment. My priority is making sure every dog feels safe.
“Taurawa was the perfect host for my dog Jacks. When I picked him up he seemed content. She has a very nice place for dogs, lots of room for them to run around and lets them on the furniture. We will hire her again for sure!”
“Larry took great care of our pet. This is my first time using a sitter instead of boarding and she was much happier and received his undivided attention. Lots of photos and great communication.”
About: I absolutely love cats and dogs. I grew up raising/training labs and German shepherds. I currently have 3 fur babies; my oldest shepherd is actually from my families last litter and our youngest shepherd is a rescue although you wouldn’t know it since they act like siblings. Our cat is also a rescue and prefers to stay out of sight from the dogs but is super friendly and talkative when he meets new people. I had a chocolate lab and took care of him until he was 14. (Diapers , shots, oral medication, you name it he and we probably went through it together) if you have a senior dog I am more than happy to help with any extra care that comes along. I’ve raised all my fur babies (with the exception of our cat) from the puppy stages to the elderly stages. I recently moved here and spend 24/7 with my fur babies so I figured why not spend time with more fur babies! I’m currently available Monday to Friday any time. We do allow the fur babies on the furniture and have a small patio that is fenced in so the dogs can go potty when it’s too hot to walk. We also have a small pool that we regularly set up for the dogs in the back so they can play outside in the heat (supervised). I take my dog on walks before the sun starts cooking us and when the sun goes down to stretch their legs. I can take the dogs to the park and play with them as well😊.
About: Hi! I’m a teacher enjoying summer vacation, and I’d love to help care for your furry family members while you’re at work or away on vacation. As a dog mom to two wonderful pups—one rescue and one energetic puppy who’s almost a year old—I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’ll care for yours as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, medication, or simply some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup and giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands! 🐾 As a teacher on summer vacation, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting throughout the week and on weekends. Whether you’re at work, out for the day, or away on vacation, I’ll make sure your pet sticks to their normal routine and receives lots of love, exercise, and companionship. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have two friendly dogs of my own; a rescue and a playful puppy who’s almost a year. Therefore, I’m experienced with different personalities and energy levels. I always follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide. I’m happy to administer medication if needed, crate your dog if that’s part of their routine, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Grey was wonderful with Alfie. From the start she was super friendly and easy to communicate with, and she kept us updated with photos, which really put us at ease. Alfie looked so comfortable and happy with her. She seems like a genuinely kind person who loves animals, and we felt really lucky to have found her. We’d absolutely recommend Grey to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy looking after their fur babies : )”
“Rocio received my high energy super anxious German Shepard husky with true patience! Received photos and videos of her napping and playing during her stay. Rocio was flexible, understanding and I received great communication. Very sweet and down to earth. Leia definitely enjoyed her time there. Will definitely be booking with Rocio again!”
“Jen has been the most calming, accommodating, and responsible care-taker for George (our 55lb Vizsla). She is communicative and a pleasure to coordinate with, and George is always returned with a big smile. Jen has watched George many times, and if we’re lucky, she’ll continue to be available to do so in the future! 10/10 recommend.”
“Viviana and her husband were the kindest and perfect dog watchers. Their home is very cute and you know from meeting them once that your dogs are in good hands. Good communication and ease throughout. 10/10 recommend.”
“Sarah was AMAZING!! I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. She sent me updates throughout the day, provided pictures, and ensured my little guy’s schedule was followed. Best Dog Sitter in town!”

“Sarah was amazing!! Sarah went above and beyond for my pup. She was very helpful, patient, and helped reinforce training. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs and gave excellent advice. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Carol was such a great communicator and sent us photos every day. She treated our shy cat with lots of respect and gave the outgoing one a ton of play time and attention. She was prompt every day and cleaned up the treat dishes and the litter boxes despite how messy my cats are. Absolutely will be booking Carol in the future to take care of my fur babies!”
“LeeAnn is such an amazing pet sitter! She's very quick and responsive, and sends the cutest pictures of pets! I'm so thankful she lives in the area <3 Thank you so much, LeeAnn! <3 Mamba and Liv”
“Chantelle was a lifesaver for watching our kitties while we traveled! We took a 6-day trip and she did 1-hour daily drop-ins. We truly appreciated all the pictures and updates she sent letting us know how they were doing. Our girls warmed up to her quickly and she gave them a lot of attention and care! We will use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Sarah is awesome!! She made the whole experience smooth and she communicated from start to finish when pet sitting my cat. She was so helpful and is great with pets, I recommend you book with her. Thank you Sarah!”
“Marlee goes above and beyond. She’s a caring person, a diligent dog watcher and a fabulous communicator. Her rates are reasonable and I couldn’t say enough good things about how much love and care she’s shown with my golden even in heat. Definitely use her!!!”
“BReN once again was a great sitter for my cat Xochitl while I was away for a week. My cat is very independent and doesn’t cuddle much so BReN must be a cat whisperer because I received frequent pictures of Xochitl hanging out on her lap or next to her! The house was clean upon return and she even brought in a package that arrived while we were out. BReN is thoughtful and caring toward animals and their human guardians.”

“Sierra was AMAZING!! Our kitties have quite the odd feeding routine but she handled it like a champ. She was super patient with our more skittish kitties who aren’t always the most sure of new people and gave our more social kitties LOTS of lovins when they’d accept it. Sierra is phenomenal with communication & gave us lots of photos of our kitties while taking care of them too. I would highly recommend her watching your babies, when you’re away it was worth every penny! She checked all the boxes and then some 💕”
“Jenny was an amazing cat sitter, she provided plenty of care and support for Kitty and made sure to ask questions or provide any additional things she needed. Very pleased, thanks so much Jenny!”
“Nathalie was amazing with our dog and took such good care of him + gave us lots of updates! Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone who’s trustworthy and has a lot of experience with animals”
“Taylor was awesome! She was very communicative and reached out right away if she had a question. She left me a detailed synopsis of her visit as well as plenty of photos of my cats!”
“Laura did a wonderful job caring for our senior cat, including daily medication and a fussy feeding routine. During a week long house stay, she sent regular updates with the best pictures. We were able to enjoy time away knowing our pet and home were in good hands. We feel lucky to have found Laura and recommend her highly.”
About: Hello! I would love to welcome your pet into my home. I live in a very safe neighborhood right next to 49 Palms Oasis in 29. I have a very large yard with lots of open space to run and play. The fence is 6ft tall, so hard to jump over. I have a 15 year old fixed female lab mix, Bella. She gets along with other dogs but mostly keeps to herself and isn’t interested in playing. I also have a 7 year old beagle lab mix, male, also fixed, Winston. Winston LOVES to play but also recognizes when someone does not. I work locally and my day is flexible which allows for many potty breaks and time outside. My family lives local so I rarely go out of town. I am more than happy to meet with you and your pet ahead of time as well. Hello! I would love to welcome your pet into my home. I live in a very safe neighborhood right next to 49 Palms Oasis in 29.

About: Whether you are on vacation or diligently working, I will provide a caring, loving environment for your dog or cat. I am from a fluffy animal family where we’ve had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and birds. Since adulthood, I have cared for and trained four different large breed puppies who mastered basic & advanced commands. I have one furbaby at the moment. She is a spayed Ridgeback Mix who understands how to give space. If needed I can separate up to 3 dogs in my home, in three different bedrooms, or if everyone gets along, we can all hang out together in the main living spaces & bedrooms. Most days I work from home. If you have special accommodations, like letting your dog out every 2 H, I am able to do so. I typically let dogs out every 4-6 hours. My yard is not fenced, so it will be leach only, but I can take everyone to the local dog park, individually or as a group to expel some energy if need be. Dogs, as well as all other animals, are members of the family and deserve respect and love. Your precious little ones will be in gentle caring hands while you take care of your fur babies. Feel free to contact me at any time! I will respond as soon as possible! I clean homes as my part-time work, and my schedule is reasonably flexible. I will always put dog needs above anything else and will accommodate as nessisary. I can host up to 3 dogs separately, however, I am a fan of everyone sleeping and living together. my yard is not fenced, but for long and overnight stays we can go to the local dog park if needed.
“Such an amazing stay! It was a last minute and LONG trip, Binx was very well taken care of and Rejoice was so nice and comforting throughout our stay. Will definitely be using her services again.”

About: Hello, my name is Seana, my experience comes from having grown up with pets of many kinds, both my own and others. I can feed, bathe, clean up after, walk and play with your dog. There may be times where I may need to bring another dog with me, so if you could please let me know how your dog is with others, then I can arrange accordingly. To contact me I would appreciate a phone call to arrange a meet up. Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you and your pet soon.

“Ashley was so great with my 7 year old border collie, who loves fetch and cuddling, both of which she was given plenty of ❣️ She watched my dog two days in a row, while I was in joshua tree and she was so lovely! Thank you, Ashley, and thanks for taking such great care of aubi and for all the stellar recs around town!”
“Juliann is fantastic. She watched our dog (Echo) twice while we were spending the day hiking in Joshua Tree NP. Echo was so excited to go back to Juliann’s house the second time, which is a testament to how comfortable and entertained Echo was there. We highly recommend Juliann.”
“Arlette did a wonderful job, she is so kind and made me feel very comfortable with leaving Princess Lola with her. This is the first time we've used Rover but I will definitely be using it again thanks to her!”
“Elizabeth is awesome! She put up with my lack of schedule clarity with grace, and was super great with my mini dachshund who spent two days with her and her dogs when my group finally got organized. She was super communicative, clearly loves and understands dogs, has a great, safe and fenced yard, and was -in short- everything I hoped for and needed to pull off our Joshua Tree NP adventure. I recommend her unequivocally, and would ask her help again anytime I am in the area with my dog.”
“stella was happy to arrive and seemed like she had a good day at Lacey’s. this was only her second time there and she jumped out of the car with tail wagging when we got there. we will be back!”

I am disabled and have no other jobs currently so I will be able to devote my full attention to your pets.

I can also entertain them and clean some messes, but I wouldn't be able to do litter boxes.

“I dropped my crazy 8 month old puppy off with Grey for the day while we explored non-friendly parts of Joshua Tree NP. It was so nice to let my puppy off leash and let her play with Billow! And I had Grey drop my pup off which was super helpful. I forgot to pack dinner for my pup and Grey fed her and sent her with extra food. You can tell that she really cares about the wellbeing of the dogs she cares for <3 Highly recommend! Your dog is in good hands with Grey and her dog crew! Highly recommend”

I enjoy playing, petting & teaching simple commands/tricks to all animals. I hope to be a sitter/walker you can rely on. I am currently in between jobs & planning to start taking classes, so I am able to make pet care a priority at this moment. I am hoping to offer flexible services in order to accommodate all of my clients wants/needs. I can be offer as much as light training servives, like potty or crate training or as little as just making sure your pets are loved, fed, given fresh water & frequent potty trips.
“Hannah was great. She was very communicative and it was easy to find her place. My puppy had a great time running around with her dogs, he was very tired when he got back in the car after. We spent the day at Lassen Volcanic National Park and then had some driving to do after so it was great that he was tired out for the rest of the drive. Highly recommend Hannah if you’re driving through the area.”
“Salina and her family were amazing. They were available pretty last minute for us and we’re super grateful for that. They were so easygoing and friendly throughout the whole process and they took great care of our big energetic boy. They’re local for us and are going to be our go to when we’re looking for a sitter or overnight care in the future.”
“Lauren was wonderful! She was our pup’s first Rover sitter. She was very friendly and put us all at ease. She communicated well with us. We would definitely call on her again for future dog sitting needs!”

About: I have taken care of both domestic and exotic animals all my life. I have lived in mostly farm lands. I have experience with every situation you can think of from timid, hyper, aggressive, and disabled. I work from home so my schedule is extremely open! Whether you have an easy to handle pet or one that is a little more difficult. I have the experience and patience for it all. Currently, I work from home. I also clean houses. My schedule is never really set in stone so I’m very flexible . I am also able to do same day sometimes depending on what I have going on that day! I will not just be checking in on your pet ! If I come in and happen to see your pet had an accident. I will let you know and I will also clean it up for you! I will follow every request that you have whether you have a fenced in yard or you prefer the dog to be walked with the leash! As far as cats, I am very aware that they do like to run out so I always make sure to squeeze in and out of the door very carefully to make sure none of your pets escape! I take a detailed note of how you like things being done and the time as well to not change your pets schedule too much from the norm. I will take picture documentation if needed and make sure they get fed the correct amount and the way they like it as we know some pets like their food prepped a certain way! This is your baby. I will make sure that they feel loved and safe with me.
About: There’s just nothing like the happiness a dog (or cat) brings to our lives! They’re always there for us, and they ask so little of us in return. Our pets have an amazing, giving spirit, and it’s definitely their selflessness that inspired me to become a pet sitter! I believe that animals need just as much love as we do, so I want to put a smile on as many faces as I possibly can. Not to mention, I love that I can give back to my community at the same time by providing owners with peace of mind while they’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pet! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pet and care expectations. No one knows your pet better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new clients! I like to get down on their level to show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it can be to be away from your best friend, so I’m here to make that time as easy as possible! When your pet is in my care, I’ll always send tons of updates along so you can be in the loop on everything we’ve done during the day. I’m happy to send detailed information on anything that you need to know just how they’re doing—from behaviors to exercise times to meal prep. Likewise, those updates will always have accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pet and I are having together! I’m also very easy to get in touch with, so I’ll always be on call in case you have any questions or concerns. I’m available for drop ins, walks and short overnights. I am in school finishing my masters degree but tend to be pretty flexible overall, if you have a question send a message! I do drop in visits to your home and follow all instructions left. Times and expectations are agreed upon before arrival. I can let pets outside to use the restroom, feed them, give medication etc just ask! I also had a diabetic cat so I can perform injections if needed.
About: I have helped professionals in the veterinary field groom and train animals. I have also been pet sitting for family and have had many pets throughout my life! I am currently a part-time student at Copper Mountain College, and work weekends at Hi-Desert Tails. I have a bit of free time as I have online classes! I will have to schedule pet care around my work, but I’m very flexible outside of that! I will be able to play with and take care of any dogs or cats, no matter the size or energy level! I can also easily crate if needed. Please let me know if there are cameras inside the home, and give written instructions so I don’t forget any details!
“Reliable and available whenever our usual dog Walker isn’t available. Very friendly and accommodating. Have booked several times and will continue to book in the future :)”
About: Hi! I’m a teacher enjoying summer vacation, and I’d love to help care for your furry family members while you’re at work or away on vacation. As a dog mom to two wonderful pups—one rescue and one energetic puppy who’s almost a year old—I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’ll care for yours as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, medication, or simply some extra love and attention, I’m happy to help. I’m patient, dependable, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your pup and giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands! 🐾 As a teacher on summer vacation, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting throughout the week and on weekends. Whether you’re at work, out for the day, or away on vacation, I’ll make sure your pet sticks to their normal routine and receives lots of love, exercise, and companionship. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible for both you and your furry family member. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have two friendly dogs of my own; a rescue and a playful puppy who’s almost a year. Therefore, I’m experienced with different personalities and energy levels. I always follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide. I’m happy to administer medication if needed, crate your dog if that’s part of their routine, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have taken care of animals pretty much my entire life. I grew up on a farm with cats, dogs, horses, and all kinds of other animals. I'm very active and would love to take your dog on a hike or long walk but I can also lounge around with the older ones too! I've primarily owned rescued dogs, so I'm familiar with navigating a variety of behavioral issues (e.g., leash reactivity, dog aggression, prey drive, separation anxiety). I also have experience raising puppies, so I'm familiar with the crate training, potty training, and other typical puppy adventures! Along those same lines, I have experience dealing with dogs that have special medical needs (e.g., special baths, diets, medication), so I am equipped to handle your pets medical needs. I work remotely and make my own hours, so I can be home with your pet at all times and adjust my schedule according to your pets needs. I will try to keep your pets schedule as close to normal. If you have a backyard your pet is used to running around, I will be sure to let them run around. If your pet is used to going on several walks a day, I will them on several walks a day. If you dog sleeps in a crate, I will crate him/her at night. If you dog sleeps in the bed with you, he/she can sleep in the bed with me!
About: I absolutely love cats and dogs. I grew up raising/training labs and German shepherds. I currently have 3 fur babies; my oldest shepherd is actually from my families last litter and our youngest shepherd is a rescue although you wouldn’t know it since they act like siblings. Our cat is also a rescue and prefers to stay out of sight from the dogs but is super friendly and talkative when he meets new people. I had a chocolate lab and took care of him until he was 14. (Diapers , shots, oral medication, you name it he and we probably went through it together) if you have a senior dog I am more than happy to help with any extra care that comes along. I’ve raised all my fur babies (with the exception of our cat) from the puppy stages to the elderly stages. I recently moved here and spend 24/7 with my fur babies so I figured why not spend time with more fur babies! I’m currently available Monday to Friday any time. We do allow the fur babies on the furniture and have a small patio that is fenced in so the dogs can go potty when it’s too hot to walk. We also have a small pool that we regularly set up for the dogs in the back so they can play outside in the heat (supervised). I take my dog on walks before the sun starts cooking us and when the sun goes down to stretch their legs. I can take the dogs to the park and play with them as well😊.

Hi! I’m Xaiviea, I’m 29, and animals have been the biggest part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for just about everything—puppies, kittens, parrots, reptiles, ferrets, chinchillas, barn animals—you name it! I spent a couple years as a professional dog trainer at Petco, regularly volunteer at local shelters, and have been an emergency placement foster many times. I’ve even dabbled in reptile husbandry and helped get my own mom into reptiles—she now has five, and I help her care for them! Right now I live with family to help out my elderly parents, and I share my life with four lovable Frenchies and my sphynx cat, Chicken. (Yes, his name is Chicken. Yes, he lives up to it. 😂) My long-term dream is to open two animal rescues—one just for French Bulldogs and one for all animals—with tons of space for everything from horses to hedgehogs. I also hope to go back to school for biology and zoology, and I’m using Rover to help save for that goal. I treat every pet like my own—furry kids with unique needs, personalities, and big emotions. You can trust me to keep them safe, loved, and totally spoiled. 💖 Thanks for reading—I can’t wait to meet your babies! My schedule is completely open and i promise I will make caring for your pets my first priority. I can stay as long as you'd like or I can pop in as many times as you'd like. Whatever you want I'll make happen! I'm an animal freak and provide the best care possible. My dogs are all on individual diets and have there supplements and all! I don't play when it comes to pet care! I take pride in how I care for my pets and your pets will get the exact same treatment.
About: I grew up around all sorts of animals and absolutely adored them with all my heart. I was raised partially on my father’s ranch in Cache Valley and partially in Salt Lake with my mother, that’s due to divorced parents, but both of them have had their fair share of pets. While I was living with my mother in high school they got me a puppy, Oliver, he’s a mini golden doodle and him and I were inseparable. He was the easiest dog to train, but he’s got a lot of energy so I always took him on walks, played fetch and spent a lot of time being active with him. Unfortunately I couldn’t take him when I moved out because they got another puppy shortly after getting him and I wasn’t going to take him away from his brother. Living on the ranch, I would tend to the cows, horses, dogs, and cats. That was quite frankly one of the only reasons I’d get out of bed so early in the morning! Occasionally when my dad and his wife go on trips they’ll bring their new puppy over for me to watch at my place. I also have two cats of my own, Milo and Binx. I adopted Milo a few years ago when he was 8 years old and 20 lbs, he’s a big old sweetheart. Binx is a little under a year and she is absolutely insane but they’re both my entire world. All in all I am one of the biggest animal lovers and I would, without a doubt, take care of yours like they were my own. My only job is currently with Rover so I’m always on the go to a different place. My fur babies and clients fur babies get all the love and attention every chance I get to give them! Safety overall is one of the most important things in caring for an animal. Although, it does depend on the service you are needing. Generally, I always like to ensure that they can trust and respect me, and vice versa. I also make sure there aren’t any small objects they could choke on or swallow nearby. I like to keep a close eye on them as well, you never know what their curious minds will get them into next.
About: I've had numerous cats and dogs my whole life and miss having pets. I've watched 2 large German shepherds, one at a time but I am capable of taking care of any size and breed of dog. I also am a volunteer at the local animal shelter I'm currently working from home and am able to take frequent breaks for walks, potty breaks and giving your pets some love. We also take nightly walks or runs depending on energy level I have a large home with lots of love for dogs and cats and a large fenced in back yard. Lots of room for play, fetch and any other games.
About: I work partime at Amazon in the night and a mother in the day, so a have a lot of free time.

About: I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs my whole life and since moving out west I’ve cared for friends dogs and cats often. I’ve spent a lot of quality time with puppies. To be honest, I love going on walks and being outside and if I got to hangout with some dogs while I do so, that would just be the best thing ever. I travel for work periodically and when I’m not away I spend my days at home or around town, reading or going on walks and runs. So I have a lot of availability and flexibility. I’m very clean, organized and respectful of people’s space and belongings, in my home and in others. I will leave your home as I found it.

About: I have been a dedicated pet owner for 10 years, but have always loved animals. I currently do not have any pets in my home, so I can pay special attention to your pets. I enjoy playing, petting & teaching simple commands/tricks to all animals. I hope to be a sitter/walker you can rely on. I am currently in between jobs & planning to start taking classes, so I am able to make pet care a priority at this moment. I am hoping to offer flexible services in order to accommodate all of my clients wants/needs. I can be offer as much as light training servives, like potty or crate training or as little as just making sure your pets are loved, fed, given fresh water & frequent potty trips.
“Her own dog is very happy and friendly. My dog was comfortable with her even my dog is usually nervous when she meets new people and dogs. Rejoice is very good and trustworthy. She is friendly and happy too. I recommend her!!”
About: Whether you are on vacation or diligently working, I will provide a caring, loving environment for your dog or cat. I am from a fluffy animal family where we’ve had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and birds. Since adulthood, I have cared for and trained four different large breed puppies who mastered basic & advanced commands. I have one furbaby at the moment. She is a spayed Ridgeback Mix who understands how to give space. If needed I can separate up to 3 dogs in my home, in three different bedrooms, or if everyone gets along, we can all hang out together in the main living spaces & bedrooms. Most days I work from home. If you have special accommodations, like letting your dog out every 2 H, I am able to do so. I typically let dogs out every 4-6 hours. My yard is not fenced, so it will be leach only, but I can take everyone to the local dog park, individually or as a group to expel some energy if need be. Dogs, as well as all other animals, are members of the family and deserve respect and love. Your precious little ones will be in gentle caring hands while you take care of your fur babies. Feel free to contact me at any time! I will respond as soon as possible! I clean homes as my part-time work, and my schedule is reasonably flexible. I will always put dog needs above anything else and will accommodate as nessisary. I can host up to 3 dogs separately, however, I am a fan of everyone sleeping and living together. my yard is not fenced, but for long and overnight stays we can go to the local dog park if needed.

“Lacey and her family were amazing! I HIGHLY recommend her. They took such good care of our cat, Fran, for a few nights while we camped in Joshua Tree. It was such a relief to know she was in good hands. Lacey sent pictures, updates, and was a great overall communicator. If we ever end up back in the area, we are for sure using her services again. Thanks again!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and multiple rescue dogs with different personalities and needs. Being around dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I understand the importance of providing patience, consistency, and lots of love so they feel safe and comfortable.

I’m committed to following your pet’s routine, respecting their personality, and providing plenty of supervision, affection, and care. Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my top priority.
“I can't thank you enough, Shawna! This was smudge's first boarding experience and it was clear that he felt safe, confident, and happy the whole time. I had a lot going on this trip and not worrying about him made a massive difference. I appreciate how accommodating, attentive, and thorough you are with pick-up and drop-off, care, and updates. Would definitely book again!”
“We miss Ashley! She took great care of our dogs whenever we needed to leave town. She truly spoiled them and treated them as her own. They also enjoyed playing with her dogs and running around her backyard. Highly recommend if you’re in the 29/JT area or even vacationing out there.”

“Grey was wonderful with Alfie. From the start she was super friendly and easy to communicate with, and she kept us updated with photos, which really put us at ease. Alfie looked so comfortable and happy with her. She seems like a genuinely kind person who loves animals, and we felt really lucky to have found her. We’d absolutely recommend Grey to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy looking after their fur babies : )”

“Thanks so much to Monica for boarding Sancho in your home for two nights while my boyfriend and I explored Joshua Tree. This was our first Rover booking, and it was perfect. We had a great trip because I knew that my fur baby was happy and that Monica was caring for him like her own. Every time I started to miss Sancho, I would get a notification on my phone from Monica, sending me the cutest photos ever of my little monster. She eased my mind by giving me updates! Her home is a doggie paradise. She has a safe enclosed yard with plenty of sunshine and shade! Her Shiba mix Naboo was a perfect host, also. As soon as we arrived, all the tails were a-waggin! What a lovely blessed life you live, Monica! We will definitely book with you again next time we're in town.”
