“Lacey and family were just great! This the first time in almost three years we’ve been away from our dog and she made it a smooth and positive experience for Moose and for us. Lacey is quick to respond, proactively sends great pics and updates, and rolls with changes in plans with finesse. Plus our chonk seems to have lost a few pounds from playing with the other dogs and came home tired and happy. Thank you, Lacey & fam!”
“Alice has a nice oasis in Joshua Tree for my two dogs. They’ve never traveled away from home so her care was wonderful and comforting. Her two dogs made friends and welcomed my two boys with play and fun. I would ask Alice to care for my boys the next time I am in Joshua Tree!”
“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.”
“Monica was an absolute godsend. Not only was she able to sit Kugel for our wedding weekend, but she made herself available to drive him to our wedding venue for some photos on Saturday. She also sent us tons of photos and updates throughout the weekend which helped keep our minds at ease during such a hectic time. We’ll definitely book with Monica again when we’re up in the high desert.”
“Ann was very attentive to our dogs needs when I dropped him off and picked him up. Her dog Buddy loved playing with ours and vice versa. If you need a dog sitter who enjoys loving on and caring for your pet, Ann is your girl! She’s was so welcoming!”
“Nina was an absolute best dog sitter. Toby and her hit it off from the meet and greet and through out the time that Toby stayed with her. She gave me great feedback on Toby. I would recommend Nina in a heartbeat. Toby got to play with other dogs and Nina sent great pictures to me.”
“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 :)”
“Very happy with Alexandra, nothing was too much trouble, we picked up Roxy and it was clear she had had a good time. Everything was perfect, Roxy did not want to leave when we collected her!”
“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 : )”
“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.”
“Great dog sitter. Very patient and friendly with our super skittish dog. She took her on a hikes and helped socialize her a bit more for a few days. Definitely will come back next visit.”
“Salina was amazing! I needed a sitter last minute and she was totally accommodating. I could tell my pups were well loved and she sent over tons of photos. I would definitely recommend if you’re looking for someone in the area!”
“Taurawa was INCREDIBLE! I cannot believe I found such a perfect caretaker for my dogs through rover. Her property is absolutely gorgeous and my dogs had the best time staying there. She’s so caring, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. I can’t wait to take my dogs to stay with her the next time I’m in Joshua tree.”
About: My home has a backyard and a designated dog run, giving dogs a safe space to get outside, stretch their legs, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I’ll treat your pet like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m very outdoorsy, so if your dog enjoys adventures, I’d love to take them along! Depending on their needs and your preferences, I can offer neighborhood walks, lake walks, hikes, and other outdoor activities. Of course, I’m just as happy caring for a pup who prefers relaxing at home and getting lots of attention. I have a 5 1/2 year old son that would love to give your pup some extra love if that is something you and your pup are okay with. If not, that’s totally okay and I can keep them separated. As far as the pets on furniture- we usually do not allow that. However, if you have a pet that is more comfortable and request it, I can make an exception. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and companionship while they’re with me! They’ll have lots of interaction, plenty of opportunities to enjoy our backyard and dog run, and lots of time to play or relax. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel happy, comfortable, and right at home. 🐾❤️ I have a fully fenced yard and a designated dog run, giving your dog plenty of secure outdoor space to play, exercise, and relax. We do NOT have any pets at home, so your pet will not have to share a space and it’s safety, comfort, and individual needs will always come first.
“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!!”
“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.”
“Johna is amazing! She is now our go-to sitter for Cosmo. We can tell he really enjoys himself there, especially when he's playing with the other doggies in her big fenced-in backyard. We love all the sweet photos and captions Johna sends us while she's watching him, also! :)”

“Diana looked after our kitties when we went out of town. She made sure they had food and water, cleaned their litter boxes, loved on them, and helped take care of the house when our mini ac unit was leaking. She did more than was required of a pet sitter ❤️”
“Kristen is AMAZING with cats. She’s incredibly thoughtful and sweet and has a heart of gold. Great communication, very timely, and trustworthy. I’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
About: I've had dogs my entire adult life. My last dog was a special girl and didn't get along with other dogs so when I went to work I hired someone to visit and hang out with her and I called that person her "friend for hire". I'd love to be your pets friend for hire. In addition to having my own dogs I have been a volunteer with a local shelter for the past year. I have experience with dog handling, walking, training, medical recovery, some medication administration, and general playing/loving/cuddling. I have experience with special needs dogs, untrained dogs, unsocialized dogs, senior dogs, puppies, and even some mess dogs. I also grew up with cats and started my volunteer work "socializing" with cats and kittens. I love all the furry little friends! I currently make my own schedule as a personal trainer so I am flexible and available to meet your dog's needs. Weekdays or weekends are available. Want to go for a hike or rock climbing? I've got your furry friend covered. As someone who had an aggressive dog I understand that it can be challenging trusting someone new with your pet. You know your animal best and I will listen and adhere to any/all boundaries you have for their health and enjoyment.
“Thank you Greg for taking excellent care of my Simon last week. Not only am I comfortable that he was well cared for, but I felt completely safe having you in my home. Between work and leisure travel you DEFINITELY haven’t heard the last of me !!”
“Elizabeth is amazing! Very communicative about what our cats are doing when we're away. She goes above and beyond to take care of them. I will absolutely call her again next time!”
“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!”
“Emily L. Cares for my senior female cat like NO OTHER professional I've ever had. Her communications during my recent 10 day trip showed me a happy,genuine loving pet Caregiver ,bringing out the best in my pet. My cat was talkative, playful during toy time, her coat was shiny from brushing sessions and she ate like a champ. All concerns I have when leaving my pet are no more. Look no further for the pet whisperer Emily is.”
“Excellent experience with Shawna! She came by my house for cat visits/feeding while I was on a short trip. I really appreciated Shawna took the time to stop by before I left town to meet the cats. She also sent good updates & pictures!”
About: I have dedicated many hours over several years volunteering in the Cat Care department of a pet adoption center in Washington state. During this time, I had the privilege of caring for numerous cats, each with their own unique personalities. Even though they were in between homes, it was always a joy to provide them with care and security, witnessing them open up and become receptive to contact. In addition to my volunteer work, I have had four cats of my own. One of them came to me just days before delivering a litter, which led to a bustling household of three cats. Several years later, my dog discovered my fourth and latest cat, Bobby, who enjoyed a happy and healthy indoor life for 19 years. My experiences have deepened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced my commitment to providing compassionate care for pets in need.
“My cats have been noticeably less stressed since having Nina drop in when I’m outa town. Nina stays sometimes longer than contracted and sends updates and tons of photos, makes my time away from home that much more easy. 100% would recommend giving Nina an opportunity to take care of your pet children!”
“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”
“Katie did a couple of drop ins for my dog and 2 cats. They were all very comfortable with her and she gave them tons of attention! We would definitely recommend her to others and will use her for future trips!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats, both young and old.

I am a licensed cosmetologist, a watercolor artist and an avid reader. I have flexible availability to care for your pets. I will care for your pet as if it were my own.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 13. I’ve volunteered at no kill shelters and kennels for 5 years. I currently have two fur babies now (both rescues) and my mother always had about 8 in her home. I’ve taken care of dogs from tea cup to Great Danes. I also have cared for dogs with diabetes, who were blind, and have cerebral palsy. I work full time (Mon -Fri) in the lower dessert, live in JT. I’m home around 4/4:30pm each day. Of course your baby will be the first one that I see once I’m off of work and before I go into work. As a dedicated pet caregiver, I prioritize each animal's well-being and comfort while following your specific instructions. I ensure they receive regular feeding, fresh water, and ample exercise through walks or playtime. I’m attentive to their unique needs, whether it’s administering medication, maintaining a routine, or simply providing companionship. I also keep their environment clean and safe, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Your pets are not just animals; they’re family, and I’ll treat them with the love and care they deserve!
“Juliann was great! She kept my house in perfect shape and took such thoughtful care of my little rascal of a cat as well as allthe outdoor critters I feed. I came home to a happy pet and everything just as I left it. I felt totally at ease knowing she was here. Highly recommend!”
“I absolutely loved Salina and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Even when she had a hiccup in her schedule, she let me know right away, we worked it out, and she always made me feel like I had the best caretaker for my lil beebs. Heck yes and please book her!!”
About: Hi I’m Serena! I’m currently in my master’s program at CSULB! I work hard and give so much love to every single one of my client’s fur babies depending on all their needs. I've grown up with 5+ dogs in my lifetime and taken care of dogs and cats of every kind and size since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their pets while they were on vacation to walk, feed, and administering their medication (both orally and injections) to their pets. I've taken animal CPR and have lots of experience with senior care with three senior dogs. I’m current attending college at CSULB but I am available in the mornings and evenings for drop in visits. For overnight or extended stays I am available Sunday-Saturday. I will care for them in your home and follow the instructions given to feed and drop in visits. If they are allowed outside, I will go outside with them and keep an eye on them both day and night. I will never let them outside on their own due to safety reasons. If discussed and allowed to housesit, I will keep your pets company for hours doing my quiet hobbies (Reading, drawing, etc.) since my pets tend to dislike being alone in the house for long periods of time.

“We’re so glad we found Juliann to take care of our pup during a few long days in the park. Her place was super clean, she’s communicative and friendly, and our girl warmed up to her right away. Thanks Juliann!”
“Lacey took care of our dog during our visit to Joshua Tree National Park. We are so pleased with the care she provided. Her place is well set up for dogs. They have a play yard where the dogs can run around and play. Lacey is very attentive and gets to know the dogs. Our dog loves to play with others but managed to jump a fence out of the yard. Lacey diligently coached him back into the yard. She communicated with us about this incident and let us know what she would do to prevent it from happening again. Over the three days he was with her, he grew more comfortable, played out in the yard with other dogs without any other incidents, and just seemed at home at her place. We recommend Lacey to others who need care for their dogs when in the Yucca Valley area.”
“Johna was super easy to contact, very responsive and a lovely person. she took the stress put of our trip allowing us to enjoy Joshua Tree. plenty of pictures were shared. Thank you Johna!!”
“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.”
“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”
About: My family has had dogs ever since I was a baby. I didn’t own my own dog until I met Buddy and we have since then been inseparable. We go to the dog park every single day to play with all the other loving dogs. I’m currently working from home and am very flexible. Can take your pets for a walk and play with them outside or inside. They will be loved. I am proactive and will encourage the pups to run around outside, play fetch, and wrestle each other. Buddy would love more friends to play with.
“Thnks again Alex for taking such great care of my lil Hershey girl. She appeared to be very happy when I picked her up. Looking forward to another meet soon. BTW, I did receive her treats🐶🥰”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities for over 6 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and love making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have experience with energetic dogs and keeping pets on their regular routines. I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs.

I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos.
“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.”

About: Hey there! I'd love the opportunity to care for your pets while you're away or take them out when you're too busy. I live with my own little crew of three cats and one dog and have fostered and cared for other animals over the years. I'm located in Yucca Valley on the mesa and have experience working and volunteering with cat and dog rescue groups, including handling large breeds and recently rescued dogs. I can provide walking, pet-sitting in your home, and active play for any size dog. I'm highly responsible, attentive, and punctual, and sensitive to pets with special needs or quirks. I love getting to know individual animals and catering to their personalities and needs. Medication, special needs, senior pets ok!
About: I'm a mom of precious rescued pups myself and I've cared for animals for more than half of my life including volunteering my time at shelters, fostering dogs/cats until they found wonderful homes, and working with them to help socialize them with other animals. I’ve been with Rover now for 8 years and have loved working with my clients and their furry loved ones! I love and appreciate when my pet parents write out simple instructions of what their pups feeding amounts and routines are as well as anything they think I should be aware of like food allergies or sensitivities. That way I can easily keep track and no treats are given that may upset tummy. Also where they normally like to sleep when they’re at home. Knowing their routine helps me get to know them better! 🥰 I have a fully enclosed yard with a 6 foot chain link fence all the way around and there are no places to escape from our yard. We have 4 sweet dogs that will keep your pup company during their stay. You are welcome to bring a blanket or bed for your pup (at your own risk) Please don’t bring an expensive one as there’s a risk of getting chewed, torn, or peed on etc by other dogs at daycare. We have beds so you don’t have to bring one unless you would like to. This is their little vacation and we do our best to make it a great one for them 🥰🐾

“Elizabeth was awesome! She visited to walk and feed our 3 dogs and everything went smoothly. Each dog has their own quirks and Elizabeth took her time to make each dog feel comfortable. She left thorough notes in the app and was very communicative leading up to the visits. Would definitely recommend!”
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!
“Shawna always arrived on time and took good care of my spotted babies! I love the rover report card and how it shows exactly where they walked! I recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable walker who is also very knowledgeable!”
“We are obsessed with Katie and so are our pups! One of our dogs has barked at every single person who has ever stepped foot in our house, everyone except Katie! And we tend to have a ton of guests, our minds were blown. We’ve met with Katie twice now, and each time she has been very intuitive, attentive, knowledgeable and”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for decades now. I love pets! They are truly our best friends. Making a pet under my watch comfortable and happy is my top priority. My day revolves around my dogs, waking up and taking care of them from the moment I get up to the moment I go to bed. I understand how important quality care for your pets is, with each pet demanding it’s own approach. I am an experienced dog walker and runner. I am also knowledgeable of taking care of pets in the home, from medicating pets to making sure they are safe, secure, and happy in their home.
About: I have a farm and a lifelong love for all animals! Currently, I care for my three furry friends and livestock, ensuring they receive the best care possible. My hands on experience with a variety of animals and a trusted reputation among friends and family set me apart. I specialize in drop ins, walking, and occasional overnight pet care, providing attentive and personalized care for your pets. Whether it's a quick visit or a refreshing walk, your pets will be in good hands. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine! As of right now, I am free most days during the daytime or evening, unless stated. At a client’s house, I prioritize creating a comfortable environment for their pets by following their routine and preferences. I ensure they have plenty of exercise, companionship, and playtime, while also respecting the home’s guidelines. Communication is key, so I’ll provide regular updates and stay attentive to their pets' needs!
About: As a mom and dog owner myself, I am sensitive to the needs and feelings of animals as they are just like kids. I have taken care of animals my entire life, from small dogs, big dogs, territorial dogs, horses, cats, and a bunch of other creatures. We even have our own animal CBD line on the market for dogs in pain or with ptsd. I’m active, love to walk, believe in positive reinforcement. We have a perfect yard for animals to safely play and a large home with a loving family to make your loved one feel safe when they are missing their people. My dog friends end up calling me Auntie Sal as we take them in as family. I’m currently flexible and have the ability for same day walks, last minute trips and pop ins. I can work with your schedule most days. My husband is my tag team back as well. I have two fences in yards one for running and the other for safe play. I never leave them unattended. We are happy to follow your lead on crate training if desired. We provide toys and treats if you approve. We love park walks and have 2.5 acres to explore. We have the ability to keep dogs separate from ours if needed.
About: I have had larger dogs my entire life and have pet sat for family for about 4 years. I love animals and am willing to work with dogs who may need extra help! I am currently a full time student at SUU and a part time employee. I’m willing to work with your schedule as long as your willing to work with mine! I respect the clients home, boundaries, and rules with their pets. Everybody has their own beliefs about how to care for their pet and I believe as a sitter my biggest responsibility after the pets safety is to respect those beliefs.
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 finishing my Masters degree in Education with an emphasis in social & emotional learning currently and tend to be pretty flexible overall, if you have a question send a message! While booking overnights at least a week in advance emergency or last minute drop-ins or walks can typically be accommodated. I am currently waiting to get approval for Base access 🤞 application is pending but feel free to check in! I try to respond as quickly as possible. 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 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.
“Layla was amazing with our girl!! She sent me updates including photos and videos during their walk together and even went out of her way the night prior to meet Nova despite me booking last minute! So happy we found Layla, we already booked her again!”
About: My name is Brittney, I am about to be 30 years young! I am very reliable, outgoing and steadfast. I have been caring for and house sitting for 12 years now! I get along easily with dogs, cats any animal really. Animals are very important to family's , children, seniors and I am always aware of my surroundings an can handle situations very well. I know animals are apart of most family's life so worrying is only our first instinct, but to know someone will be there to help, helps ease those worries. As I said before I am very reliable, and also have a daughter, she is 7, Being a single mom has made me more devoted to be better in every way possible! I work very early, am off bye noon, and have the weekends off! My mom is staying with me she also does Rover and helps in the mornings before she goes to work. I have a huge, fenced in yard very well gated. My house is clean, specially the floors for the fur babies to get around easily.
About: I’m a reliable, caring pet sitter who keeps routines consistent, provides personalized attention, ensures pets feel safe and comfortable, and gives plenty of love, playtime, and companionship. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I have two cats myself, so I prioritize consistent visits, feeding, walks, and attention to keep pets comfortable and safe. While I am not offering boarding or day care at my own home at this time, I am quite responsible in my treatment of other people's property while caring for their pets. I can follow directions, keep gates closed, and follow safety protocols.
About: Hello! My name is Sam. I love dogs of all breeds and sizes. I have watched and taken care of dogs for many years. My husband and I have a Australian Red healer named Arturo and he also loves other dogs but if yours doesn't that totally ok! I would love to come walk them around the neighborhood, watch them for the night or weekend or just check up and feed them if needed. I am available and in Yucca Valley but able to travel to other nearby cities. I am a student and working freelance right now so I have a lot of time to be flexible right now. I can do weekdays or weekends. I would take special care when someones home and to leave it as I found it if not better. If at my place, I am a very neat and clean person and my dog has a good sized yard to have plenty of space if it was to be shared.

“Lacey and family were just great! This the first time in almost three years we’ve been away from our dog and she made it a smooth and positive experience for Moose and for us. Lacey is quick to respond, proactively sends great pics and updates, and rolls with changes in plans with finesse. Plus our chonk seems to have lost a few pounds from playing with the other dogs and came home tired and happy. Thank you, Lacey & fam!”
“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.”
“Monica was an absolute godsend. Not only was she able to sit Kugel for our wedding weekend, but she made herself available to drive him to our wedding venue for some photos on Saturday. She also sent us tons of photos and updates throughout the weekend which helped keep our minds at ease during such a hectic time. We’ll definitely book with Monica again when we’re up in the high desert.”
“Ann was very attentive to our dogs needs when I dropped him off and picked him up. Her dog Buddy loved playing with ours and vice versa. If you need a dog sitter who enjoys loving on and caring for your pet, Ann is your girl! She’s was so welcoming!”
“Nina was an absolute best dog sitter. Toby and her hit it off from the meet and greet and through out the time that Toby stayed with her. She gave me great feedback on Toby. I would recommend Nina in a heartbeat. Toby got to play with other dogs and Nina sent great pictures to me.”
“Very happy with Alexandra, nothing was too much trouble, we picked up Roxy and it was clear she had had a good time. Everything was perfect, Roxy did not want to leave when we collected her!”
“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 : )”
“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.”

“Taurawa was INCREDIBLE! I cannot believe I found such a perfect caretaker for my dogs through rover. Her property is absolutely gorgeous and my dogs had the best time staying there. She’s so caring, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. I can’t wait to take my dogs to stay with her the next time I’m in Joshua tree.”
About: My home has a backyard and a designated dog run, giving dogs a safe space to get outside, stretch their legs, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I’ll treat your pet like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m very outdoorsy, so if your dog enjoys adventures, I’d love to take them along! Depending on their needs and your preferences, I can offer neighborhood walks, lake walks, hikes, and other outdoor activities. Of course, I’m just as happy caring for a pup who prefers relaxing at home and getting lots of attention. I have a 5 1/2 year old son that would love to give your pup some extra love if that is something you and your pup are okay with. If not, that’s totally okay and I can keep them separated. As far as the pets on furniture- we usually do not allow that. However, if you have a pet that is more comfortable and request it, I can make an exception. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and companionship while they’re with me! They’ll have lots of interaction, plenty of opportunities to enjoy our backyard and dog run, and lots of time to play or relax. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel happy, comfortable, and right at home. 🐾❤️ I have a fully fenced yard and a designated dog run, giving your dog plenty of secure outdoor space to play, exercise, and relax. We do NOT have any pets at home, so your pet will not have to share a space and it’s safety, comfort, and individual needs will always come first.
“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.”
“Hugh and Mary were absolutely the best dog sitters we could have asked for! Our little puppy bubba felt right at home with them and couldn’t have been more comfortable, they took care of him as if he was one of their own. They sent us updates and pictures of our puppy multiple times a day which made leaving him for a few days a lot easier. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter! Our little bubba can’t wait to go back and be with them!”
“Samantha was very responsive, sent pictures and a video of my dog, and was very kind and generous when I was late for dropping off and picking up my dog. The home and backyard was a great environment for my siberian husky and she was great to work with. I would absolutely recommend her help to anyone needing a dog sitter if you're in the area.”
“Carl took amazing care of my pup!! He was very professional and had a lovely home. My dog got along well with his pups, and he played with her as if she was one of his own. I fully intend to use Carl again in the future!”
“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.”
