“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!!”
“Very pleased with Nuvea. Did a great job communicating, including updates and photosduring the boarding. Explained how she would transition my dog into her home with her drugs and cat. Would definitely rebook.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 12 years and genuinely love what I do. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra care. I have experience with feeding, walking, bathing, administering medication, and reinforcing basic training. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important routines are and always follow your instructions carefully to keep your pet happy and stress-free. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, reliable hands. 🐾 I currently specialize in boarding pets in my home and prefer this over house sitting. Boarding allows me to provide consistent, attentive care in a safe, comfortable environment where I can closely monitor your pet throughout the day. I’m flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and am available most weekdays and weekends. My goal is to give your pet a fun, stress-free stay while giving you peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I provide a clean, safe, and supervised home where your pet will receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I carefully follow your feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special care requests to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in loving, dependable hands. I treat every pet like a member of my own family. 🐾
“Our boy has had such great TLC on this trip, and we cannot thank Rose enough for all the pics, updates, and snuggles she provided! We are also thankful to Rose for being so accommodating when our plans changed a bit.”
“We can't say enough good things about Louise! She took Raymond into her home and right from the first meeting, we knew he was going to be in the best care. He can be a bit pushy with other dogs but she let him play with her Lacey and they both had such a good time. Louise sent daily updates and photos and we didn't worry about him at all knowing he was in a great place. We highly recommend Louise if you're looking for the best in pet care!”
About: I have always grownup with dogs. I currently own 3 dogs and I love being outdoors. Adventures with my pets are always amazing. I feel great joy anytime I hangout with pets. I currently work as an electrical designer engineer. I also run an Airbnb with my partner and we both do Rover together. I work from home Wednesday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday my schedule is flexible. I have a fully fenced home this includes the front of house as well. The outside of the house has cameras to ensure the property is safe. We also have outdoor lighting. We also have two separate backyards one for our pets and the other for your furry friends.
“Alexis is a phenomenal sitter!! She sent so many updates for our Conrad and followed all instructions for him perfectly! I'm so thrilled with the love she provided him during his stay and I felt at ease knowing he was in great hands! I highly recommend Alexis! We will be bringing Conrad back next time we are in the palms springs area!”
“Dropped my dog off for the week for a Disney trip I was last minute but they were able to accommodate him still they were great with him and made sure he had plenty of time to play and hangout with the other dogs and kids and made sure to send pictures and keep me updated on the trip. I 1000% recommend them for any trips as they truly know how to take care of your pet like it’s there own.”
“Unfortunately, we had to pick up our dog early. However, ARY was very accommodating and helpful with transitioning our furry baby to a friend for his continued stay. She was very communicative and shared plenty of photos of Casper enjoying his stay with her.”
“I'm so happy that I found Louella! My baby Theo was in such good, caring hands this weekend. I appreciated the updates from her and I loved how clean and spacious the home(including backyard) was :)”
“Samantha was so lovely and responsive, with much dog expertise! She made sure Oswald felt right at home and I would highly recommend her for anyone needing to board their dog! Thanks Samantha!”
“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.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs most of my life, especially small breeds. I know how hard it can be to leave your best friend behind when you travel, so I make it a priority to provide a safe, calm, loving place where they’ll get plenty of attention and care. I also know how reassuring good communication can be, so I’m happy to send regular updates and photos while you’re away. Friends and family have trusted me for years with feeding, walks, playtime, and overnight stays, and I’m especially comfortable with seniors and dogs who prefer a quieter environment. My schedule is flexible, so either my partner or I will always be home to give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day. I only host one household at a time, whether that’s one small dog or a pair from the same home. Your dog will have a comfortable home, a secure fenced yard to play in, and plenty of time to relax and hang out with us.
“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!”
“I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Alice! From the moment I dropped off Zoe, I knew she was in great hands. Alice went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and happy throughout the stay. The communication was excellent—Alice sent regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Not only did Alice provide a safe and clean environment, but she also took the time to give Zoe plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Zoe came home relaxed, happy, and well taken care of—it’s clear that Alice genuinely loves animals and knows how to care for them. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog boarder, I highly recommend Alice. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“This was our dog’s second stay with Luz. It was clear they loved their 6 day stay. Bee Bee add River looked great when we picked them up…happy and comfortable. Not sure they were ready to go! Luz’s well kept home and safe, spacious property offer a wonderful stay for dogs! She is a kind and warm pet sitter. I highly recommend Luz!”
“Elaine is a godsend! I had to go on a long work trip and Elaine was totally accomodating, She took excellent care of Hallie, sent adorable photos and let me pick her up later than I had planned due to travel delays. My Italian Greyhound loved her sunny porch!”
“Lacey is great!!! I have a very anxious and neurotic min-pin mix and Lacey was very Patient and understanding. She even offered to take him for a night BEFORE the scheduled time for her to watch him, just so he could get used to her. That was absolutely unexpected and such a kind gesture. I will 100% be booking dog sitting with Lacey again! She’s so great!!!! Thank you again!!”
“Beau was very well taken care of and living his best life with Alan & Joe. I could tell how comfortable he was in their care, always running towards them and completely at ease. Thank you for giving Beau such a warm, loving environment!!”

“James is THE BEST!!! We are so grateful that we found him through this app. He has such an intuitive way of approaching and engaging with our cat, Goldie, and it was clear that she was well looked after in his care. Knowing that she is in such good hands gives us tremendous peace of mind. You can tell that James genuinely cares about the animals he looks after, and that means so much to us. Goldie can be a little , persnickety so seeing how James just left Goldie to his own ways was a huge relief. We truly appreciate the care, and kindness he gave Goldie. It’s one thing to have someone check in on your pet, but it’s another to know that they are actually paying attention to their needs, and making sure they are comfortable. We can now truly rest easy when we have to travel, knowing James is taking care of him. That peace of mind is priceless! We feel very fortunate to have found him and would absolutely recommend James to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet. Gigi”
“Mia was great! She took fabulous care of my animals and came consistently at the times requested. She was very kind and flexible with everything we needed. I will definitely be reaching out again if I need a pet sitter again!”

About: I have owned and taken care of a cat since I was roughly 12 years old. I have had multiple different breeds and currently have an orange male. He is your typical orange as he only has one usable brain cell at a time but we love and cherish him anyway. If your cat has any quirks or special needs I will happily take the time your pet needs. I am a stay at home mom whose children recently started going to school full time so I find myself with extra time and love on my hands. I promise to take care of your baby as well as my own.
About: I grew up on a farm with all types of animals and I love taking care of them. Ive had dogs and cats all my life. I currently have two chihuahs, a German Shepard, and two cats.

“Emily was so helpful during the time I was gone. She was very efficient to being on time and getting everything done for my cat while I was gone on vacation. I didnt even have to reach out to remind her of anything she was on top of everything which made it comforting while gone. Thank you so much!”

About: I've helped several Palm Springs area families with cat care in their homes. Traditionally, I do a daily drop-in to check on and feed the cats. I've helped families with anywhere from 1 to 5 cats in their home. I've also hosted a few kittens at my home.
About: I've fostered kittens from a young age. Not only that but my 2 cats of 8 years have physical disabilities. One is blind and I've helped her adapt so well to different environments. I've grown up around so many besides my own.
“Ashurina helped me out of a jam, was needing to head out of town last min. She came by the same day I called her to meet with myself and my 2 girls (fur baby cats). She checked in and updated me, sent pictures and had my 2 cats engaged during her drop in. Thank you so much.”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I have 2 rescue dogs of my own, I am involved with pet rescue organizations where I foster, transport and donate my time to help our furry friends in need. I’ve been successful at working with special case dogs who are scared and skittish. With a little patience and a lot of love, they learn to trust us humans! I’m retired and am home most days. I have plenty of time to care for my pets and yours! I have a decent sized back yard where they can run and play or I can walk them around the neighborhood. I have a fenced backyard with room for them to wander and play, with other dogs if they’d like. They can either sleep inside. Lots of dog toys on the property for them to play with!
“Ilina did a great job with my babies. One of them is timid, but she became good friend with her! She has great communication and respectful. I am glad to find her and will recommend her to anyone who needs help.”
“Elaine was so wonderful with Malcolm! She would give us updates on how he was settling in, and then regular updates on how he was doing while we were away. The pictures she sent throughout Malcolm’s stay really gave us great peace of mind that he was comfortable, happy, and well-cared for. Would definitely recommend Elaine, and definitely would entrust her with Malcolm’s care in the future!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities, from playful kittens to senior cats. I understand feeding routines, litter box care, administering basic medications, grooming, and giving shy or nervous cats the patience they need to feel comfortable. I’ve also rescued and cared for animals in my own home, so I know how important it is to provide loving, dependable care while you’re away. I treat every cat like family and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for
“Basia was a great pet sitter and I really appreciated her trekking out so far into the desert to keep my kitties fed and watered! She was always on time and kept me apprised of how my babies were doing”
About: I have lived with two cats for the past 25 years of my life. In fact, I live with two now and I can admit that they are the bosses of me. I have always adopted kitties from shelters, saving lives is so important. I know all of the secret cat scratching areas and to avoid the tummy unless given permission (and even then it's a trap!) Cats are finicky and don't typically like change. But I've found that my calm demeanor and "cat voice" makes kitties come out of their shell. if past experience dictates, your kitties will likely love me and I will show them all of the respect for their domain that they command.

“Although my daughter's service dog goes with us everywhere, we decided it was best to leave him in capable hands while we enjoyed a tip to the Living Desert near Palm Springs, CA. Nuvea was available last minute to care for Huckleberry in her home. He enjoyed a play date with a few fellow canines and a cat. Nuvea was able to accommodate treat time and dinner for him and excursions in her backyard. When we returned Huckleberry was happy and ready to resume his care for his girl. We were pleased he had a safe and cool home to rest in while in our absence. I highly recommend Nuvea and her happy pup safe home for care.”
“Viviana and her family are amazing. They took such fantastic care of my boy. Since he is a special needs dog, it takes someone special to give him the care he needs. Viviana did a fantastic job. I think he wanted to stay with her more than coming back home with me lol! I will be coming back to Viviana whenever my boy needs boarding or other care. Thank you!”
“Luz was the most wonderful, sweet and perfect sitter for our Lily. We really lucked out as she took us last minute. Lily enjoyed her stay and we got to see cute pictures of her exploring Luz’s beautiful garden. Thank you Luz without your wonderful care, we wouldn’t have been able to hike Joshua Tree 💗 highly recommend!! 100/10 😊”
About: I love small dogs they have the biggest hearts! I’ve had pets since I was kid and have helped others with pet care needs 😀 I recently retired and have lots of extra time and thought what a better way to spend my time! Taking care of small dogs ! I have a fenced yard and plenty of room in the house for your fury baby to roam. I have no other pets at the moment so yours will have my full attention.
“I've never left my new rescue dog with anyone and I didn't think he'd do well with a lot of dogs at a normal day care because he can get overwhelmed and defensive. Judith is a dog person. She understands them and was a great sitter. Once Goedy and her dog got to know each other they played and wrestled all day! I felt very comfortable knowing he was in a safe place and also having fun. Would 1000% leave my pup with Judith again.”
“Mark looked after our dog, Penny, twice a week for daycare over several weeks and also cared for her overnight. As a new rescue, Penny can be quite anxious, particularly when getting used to new people and environments, but Mark has such a calm, gentle manner that she quickly felt comfortable with him. Before long, Penny absolutely loved going to his house. She would wag her tail and run straight to his door. We genuinely feel that Mark played a significant role in helping her gain confidence and continue progressing and feeling secure. Mark was always reliable, caring, and professional, and we knew Penny was in safe hands with him. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter.”
About: I’ve have taken care of dogs ever since I was a teenager. I love taking care of dogs they bring me such a joy. I know that each dog has their own personality and I love seeing them shine in there own ways. I have taken care of dogs as young as 6 months old to dogs that are 9 years old. I know that senior dogs definitely need more attention when it comes to potty breaks. I also have changed dog diapers. I also grown up with large dog breeds such as Pitbulls, Rottweilers and Huskies. I have also taken care of small dogs such as toy poodles, schnauzer and pekingese. I currently work as a property manager for an Airbnb that runs within my home. Which gives me the flexibility to watch pets. I understand that each pet has their own needs and I want to do what’s best for them. I’m very fortunate to have a fully fence, home, and a separate backyard for my pets and yours. My dogs have their own space and your pet will be staying with me so I can watch them.

“Megan was a lifesaver for our weekend getaway! We were staying at a pet friendly resort but wanted a day where we didn’t have to worry about leaving Dot alone for too long, or bringing her out with us during the hottest time of the year. Even though it was just a single daycare session, Megan provided regular updates and kept our girl happy with plenty of playtime, potty and water breaks. Dot made friends with Megan’s dogs and another Rover stay, she came back to us happy and tired. Would definitely choose Megan again for future trips to the desert!”
“Geraldine was very flexible and willing to take our beagle on a short notice. Geraldine was booked 24 hrs in advance to watch Honey while my husband & I went to a spa. We booked Geraldine for another successful evening of dog sitting in her home during our vacation in Palm Springs. Geraldine was a good match for dog sitting our chill 8 1/2 year old beagle. (We tipped her in cash, not using the Rover app).”

About: Hello, my name is Cynthia. I’m a big animal lover and hope I can give your furbaby the attention they need! I’ve cared for animals nearly all my life and can’t wait to help you. I can provide frequent potty breaks, and tend to senior and or disabled pets as well. I work from home Monday through Friday and for the most part stay home on the weekends as well. I take my dogs for 2 or more walks per day, for about a mile each time for them to get some fresh air through out the day. I have two fur babies of my own who are very sociable and friendly. If your puppy needs to be crated I can definitely accommodate that, as well as provide stimulating exercises for them with lick mats, treat puzzles, and basic obedience.
“It was really nice to walk to kiddos again. It’d been a while. They loved the walk on this beautiful morning!☀️🌴🌵🐶. Thanks Faith, they’re really comfortable with you now.😁”

“I had a wonderful experience with Molly and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate care. She was professional, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I always felt confident that my pet was in great hands, and I appreciated the updates and photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. Chewbacca was happy, well cared for, and excited to see her each visit, which says a lot. She was dependable, attentive to my pet's needs, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. I’m grateful for the excellent care and will definitely be booking with Molly again!”
“Kevin is unbelievably kind and wonderful -such a nice man and just helpful beyond belief. My dog is definitely having an adjustment period and does not want to leave her mama. He has been incredibly patient with her trying everything he can to get her to trust him and actually leave the house with him. We’ll get there and it’s all because of his patience and flexibility -again his senior dog expertise is beyond compare.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—especially large breeds. Growing up, our home was always full of wagging tails large and small. Caring for our family dogs came as naturally as anything else. That early bond with animals shaped my love for pet care, and today, I’m lucky enough to share my life with my own Golden Retriever. I’m also an active duty service member, which means I bring a strong sense of responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail into everything I do—including caring for your pet. Whether it’s a walk, a weekend stay, or just some extra playtime, I treat every dog like my own: with patience, affection, and respect. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a dog owner myself, my wife and I have a consistent routine that includes morning and evening playtime in our yard. , feeding, playtime, and training sessions. Being in the military, I’m used to structure and time management, which makes it easy to plan and prioritize pet care throughout my week. Whether it’s making time for a long walk after work or adjusting my schedule for a pup who needs extra attention, I’m always ready to give pets the care and companionship they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my approach is the same: create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets feel at ease. In my home, I make sure dogs have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel like part of the family—including my own friendly Golden Retriever, who loves having a buddy around. I stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules to preferred walking times and any special care instructions. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care as I do my own. I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and comfort, keep everything clean, and make sure they get plenty of affection and activity. Whether it’s a drop-in visit or an overnight stay, I always prioritize communication so you feel informed and confident while you’re away.

About: I've grown up with dogs, raised my 3 adult children around dogs. Just welcomed a dachshund into our home. He's sleep / crate trained and fully potty trained. His current schedule is sleeping through the night 7pm to 6am and is in his crate for 3 90min to 2 hour naps a day. When he's awake he's home with us. I'm hoping to offer overnight and Wknd per care for 1 other small / medium dog where my dachshund can accompany me. This gives me time away from my busy household to earn extra money for my family. I will cater to unique walking, sleeping, feeding and care schedules. I'm very active and looking forward to having a walking buddy for myself and my pup.

Louise sent daily updates and photos and we didn't worry about him at all knowing he was in a great place. We highly recommend Louise if you're looking for the best in pet care!”
