“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.”
“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 had a great experience with Alice this past weekend! She were caring, communicative, and made us feel very comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. We received updates and photos throughout the stay, and our pup came back happy and well taken care of. Definitely recommend!”
“Awesome with my older Great Dane! He loves going here. Megan is so sweet to try and comfort him when he gets anxious being away from mom & dad. We’ve used her a few times already and have another trip planned next month. We feel Cooper’s in excellent hands with Megan!”
“Osamu and Darrell were amazing to my Buddy. I never had to worry about him because I was always getting cute pictures and updates 🥰 Would definitely recommend booking with him!”
“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.”
“Todd was amazing with Harper! He said one of his dogs fell in love with Harper and followed her everywhere, which made me feel so go! I will definitely take her to have Todd watch her again! He is amazing!!”
“Nuvea was amazing! She has a great place and a real understanding of and attention to the needs of pets! She was so nice to work with and was incredibly understanding and accommodating when I messed up the dates of my trip and we had to extend our puppy’s stay! We will definitely be using her again!”
“I had to book my pups very last minute, with the added complications of one having a recent injury still very much in the healing process. These guys totally put me at ease in what was a highly stressful situation- their home is spotless and yet perfect for dogs, my two girls instantly settled and I was sent the cutest updates. They made accommodations for the injurd pup and administered care. When we picked them up they were so chilled and happy. Highly recommend even if it does make it harder for me to book!”
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.
“Tony was amazing with my Joey. Communication was perfect. Every time I was wondering about Joey, Tony already had a picture and update for me. The yard is clutch for Joey because he is a high energy dog. Highly recommend Tony and I will definitely use him again next time I need a dog sitter.”
“Luz sent me pictures of my senior dog sleeping, walking on a brick path, smelling grass, and roaming in a wooded area. I could tell that Cici was happy and that she was in good hands boarding at Luz's property! I appreciated that I didn't have to worry about her.”

“I booked a two-week vacation and needed someone truly special to care for my dog, Ella. Most kennels in the area have no dog limits and don’t separate by size. Not the right fit for my sweet, slightly bougie girl! Matthew offered the perfect blend of comfort, safety, and home-style care. His house is pet-friendly and charming, with a doggy door to the front patio and another to the back, so Ella could choose where to lounge. He limits the number of dogs he watches, sent regular photos and updates, and was wonderfully flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. Ella looked so happy and relaxed in every picture. It gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I couldn’t recommend Matthew more highly, and I’ll definitely be rebooking with him in the future!”
“Jackson continues to exceed our expectations! From the moment we dropped off our Dobies, we knew they were in great hands. He kept us updated with photos and messages throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious they were having a great time, and they came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for.”
“Kevin was great. His communication was fabulous keeping us posted on our little boy. He even sent pictures, which we really appreciated. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to know their pet is in good hands.”

About: There have been so many cats in my care over the last 35 years. Recently, have specialized in felines needing specialty and medical attention. Cats are captivating and a joy to bond with.

“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!”
“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.”
“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”
“Cesar is amazing!! He took care of my three cats while we were out of town for our wedding, over the past 9 days our kitties were in great care with Cesar’s drop in visits! He went above and beyond our expectations. Truly kept the litter boxes clean and swept around them! He changed their food and water and made sure they were safe! Cesar is trust worthy and respectful! He kept us updated throughout the whole process, sending us lots of loving photos and even keeping us updated on the weather! He is soo kind and truly loves animals, we have gold fish here too, even thou we were feeding them pebbles with the automatic feeder he noticed the fish and added some bounce flacks when he visited (out of the kindness of his heart). SO NICE! If you are looking for someone to care for your pets, I HIGHLY recommend Cesar he is very knowledgeable and caring, he followed every step I gave him and went beyond that. He even offered to have a free meet and great so the animals could get to know him! SO THOUGHTFUL. unfortunately my tight schedule wouldn’t allow it but, it’s the thought he puts in that counts! Thank you so much Cesar you are a true blessing to us and our animals! Until next time! 💕”
“Tony was prompt, communicative and took great care of Pickles. It’s clear he cared for her like she was her own, playing with her, snuggling and taking her on two walks to make sure she was taken care of after dinner.”
About: Over the years, friends and family have entrusted me with the care of their pets. I have owned dogs and cats throughout my life and have been in the animal medical field for the last 6 years. As a pet owner I understand the uneasy feeling of having to leave your fur babies in the care of someone else in a new environment due to work, travel, or unforeseen events. I want my clients to know I provide the highest degree of professionalism but also provide home town care for their pets as if they were my own. I have the experience in making animals feel comfortable and secure, even when their parents are away! I work with dogs and cats 8 hours a day five days a week. It has been a routine for the last 6 years. I am offering pet sitting, day visits, and dog walking. I am off work at 5:00pm leaving my evening free to spend time with my own pets and any guests we have! I have two felines (male and female) that keep to themselves but are friendly when approached. In addition, I have one silly and loving female chocolate Labrador Retriever and one exuberant (social butterfly) female Doberman Pinscher. I have a large fenced yard, artificial grass area, large plastic pool (for dogs that enjoy water), and lots of toys to engage with your fur babies. I’m happy to send pictures and updates during the duration of the stay, if requested. I have a guest bedroom and large kennel available. If medication administration is needed and/or special diets are needed during the visit we can discuss specifics when you contact me. I’m also happy to house sit in your home if your animals are more comfortable in their environment. I hope to meet you and your precious fur babies soon, let us make amazing memories!

“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.”
“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).”
“Another great day for Milo. He made a new friend and enjoyed playing. Great sitters and wonderful accommodations. We definitely recommend them for other dog owners.”

“Tony took excellent care of our dog! He played with him and was very attentive. He communicated with us throughout our dog’s stay to let us know how he was doing. We highly recommend Tony!”
“Katie took great care of our Golden Retriever Marvin She came highly recommended from friends that have used her several times. What a blessing to have found her. Our boy was completely worn out from doggy play yesterday. I thank you again Katie. Our minds were completely and ease knowing you were taking care of our special boy.”
“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 😊”
“Todd was an awesome sitter - Franklin enjoyed her time with his puppy Shih tsu. Todd also shared some pictures and videos during the day that I thoroughly enjoyed. I’d definitely recommend him!”
“Jon was incredibly accommodating on a short notice request by us. We came to vacation in Palm Springs and were unaware we could not leave our dog in the hotel room unattended. I immediately messaged Jon and he quickly responded. He was flexible on drop off and pick up as well. I’m so thankful for him! He made our trip less stressful by taking care of our Togo for two days. Highly highly recommend!”

“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.”
“Dennis and Tom were very friendly and super helpful in taking care of our dogs during our visit to Palm Springs. They were responsive, responsible, and accommodating, enabling us to visit town while knowing that Milo and Frankie were well cared for. We can’t thank them enough!”
“April was so great with Jameson! I really appreciated the updates and it seemed like Jameson really enjoyed spending time with April and her family. Thank you all so much!”
“Corrine was awesome! We needed someone last minute and Corrine accepted. She made our Kimber feel at home, took her on a long walk and sent pictures the whole time to let us know she was doing well. I highly recommend Corrine to take care of your dogs!”
“Kevin was great with our beloved boy. Our dog is a rescue, a former stray, and he can be vey nervous of strangers, especially adult men. Instead of cowering in his presence, Kevin had our dog happily playing within minutes. Just remarkable. Kevin showed great poise, enthusiasm, and gentleness. He made the whole process of our first Rover experience so easy. In short, Kevin was great! And we will absolutely call on him again. Thank you Kevin!”
“What a wonderful experience with Alfonso being there at the last minute to help with my dogs while at Joshua Tree. He was a great caretaker, very kind and great with my girls. I will definitely recommend Alfonso and request his help in the future! 5 stars.”

About: I did start taking care of pets when I was in junior high! I grew up with beagles; I think I’m a fourth generation beagle owner, and my dog Lear is truly a wonderful host . He adores everybody, and they all seem to love him, too. My backyard is essentially for the pups , several lounging areas for the perfect noon time sunbath. We also love the dog park. I’m a senior who spends majority of my time at home with my pups. Lots of attention and interaction , and backyard breaks . Pup heaven! I have a lovely fenced in backyard, and my own pups love sunning themselves all times of the day. I’m normally always home except for quick trips to the grocery store or an occasional lunch out ; otherwise I’m here , hands-on!
“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.”
“Our dog just loves Christopher! She gets so excited when he arrives that he has to wait a few minutes for her to calm down. We have had Christopher both walk and house sit and he has been consistently wonderful. He always does little extra things to help out and make sure our girl has a great and safe experience.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and therefore our first time having Jon walk our dog. We asked Jon to come by each day at 7, as it gets pretty hot here in the desert quite early in the morning. Sammi is used to hour long walks as well. We can say Jon did not disappoint! He was at our house every morning at 7 on the nose and gave our Sammi a full hour walk each day. They walked a mile plus on each journey and Sammi looked forward to seeing him every day. Could not have asked for a better experience!”

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 always make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. 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.
About: I have cared for large, medium, and small dogs for 15 years. I also have cat care experience. I studied animal science at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, so I can also care for livestock and various species of animals more than cats and dogs as well. I have a BS degree in Animal Science and Agricultural Science, a master's in Agriculture and currently working on my doctoral degree. Currently, Fall 2026, for my day job I am a high school teacher who teaches classes in veterinarian sciences, livestock management, plant science and horticulture, floral design, and landscape design. I am enrolled in a doctoral program and beginning my dissertation work. I would like to help care for pets to help relieve stress and offer help to fellow pet owners. I care for pets across the Coachella Valley. I have a fenced backyard. One friendly dogs to keep your furry friend company. I can crate. Can crate and walk as well as play every 2 hours. Reach out if you have specific requests.

“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.”
“We had a great experience with Alice this past weekend! She were caring, communicative, and made us feel very comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. We received updates and photos throughout the stay, and our pup came back happy and well taken care of. Definitely recommend!”
“Awesome with my older Great Dane! He loves going here. Megan is so sweet to try and comfort him when he gets anxious being away from mom & dad. We’ve used her a few times already and have another trip planned next month. We feel Cooper’s in excellent hands with Megan!”
“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.”
“Todd was amazing with Harper! He said one of his dogs fell in love with Harper and followed her everywhere, which made me feel so go! I will definitely take her to have Todd watch her again! He is amazing!!”
“I had to book my pups very last minute, with the added complications of one having a recent injury still very much in the healing process. These guys totally put me at ease in what was a highly stressful situation- their home is spotless and yet perfect for dogs, my two girls instantly settled and I was sent the cutest updates. They made accommodations for the injurd pup and administered care. When we picked them up they were so chilled and happy. Highly recommend even if it does make it harder for me to book!”
“Tony was amazing with my Joey. Communication was perfect. Every time I was wondering about Joey, Tony already had a picture and update for me. The yard is clutch for Joey because he is a high energy dog. Highly recommend Tony and I will definitely use him again next time I need a dog sitter.”
“Luz sent me pictures of my senior dog sleeping, walking on a brick path, smelling grass, and roaming in a wooded area. I could tell that Cici was happy and that she was in good hands boarding at Luz's property! I appreciated that I didn't have to worry about her.”

“Jackson continues to exceed our expectations! From the moment we dropped off our Dobies, we knew they were in great hands. He kept us updated with photos and messages throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was obvious they were having a great time, and they came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for.”
“Kevin was great. His communication was fabulous keeping us posted on our little boy. He even sent pictures, which we really appreciated. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to know their pet is in good hands.”
“We greatly appreciated the fact that Jon was one of the only dog sitters who was willing to take our guy over the holidays. We did a "meet and greet" about six or seven weeks prior to our trip which gave us the assurance we needed that Jon was someone we could trust with our most prized possession. It was also nice to know that our dog would have the company of Jon's two wonderful greyhounds as well as a large yard to play in. It is safe to say that this was the best choice we could have made for our dog's care during our vacation. Bob R.”
“If you find yourself in need of a dog sitter in Palm Springs, then Vincent (Antonio) is your guy! He was so sweet to our pooch. We could not have found a better person to watch Beau. He even has a nice backyard space for the dogs to roam around. We would definitely use him again if we are in Palm Springs. His house is also very close to downtown which worked perfectly for us.”
“Dennis and Tom were so kind and caring of our old girl! She had some medical issues going on and they were very attentive, sent many updates, and June came back smiling. Highly recommended.”
“I took the pups to visit a week before their stay and that was a great idea.Lacey had because when I took them back to stay for my vacation, they acted super comfortable Lacey sent me pictures which was super cool, because that made me feel comfortable. Definitely will use Lacey again for pup sitting ??❤️”
“10/10 experience with Anna and Tyler. Their communication and care was great. They also sent regular photo and video updates and I know she was treated like one of their own. Maple loved their great backyard as well. Thank you for a wonderful experience for our Maple, highly recommend this couple!”
“Simon is always in good hands with Brandon! Not his first visit and won’t be his last ! I am always well informed and kept up to date about how Simon is doing and what he is up to. Brandon is terrific with all aspects and we so appreciate him.”
