“Alice was great and i could tell Harley had a good time playing with the other dogs there. She constantly provides updates with pictures & is quick to respond to all my messages. It definitely made me a lot better leaving harley for the weekend”
“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!!”
“Viviana was amazing!!! When we went to go pick up our dog she didn’t even want to come home and would rather have stayed with them 🤣 that’s how much our dog loved Viviana and her husband! This was our first time having someone dog sit and it went absolutely prefect. I also received updates on how our dog was doing and that was the best! I will be re-booking with Viviana in the future! My husband and I were extremely pleased with the experience. Thank you all so much.”

“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!”
“I felt so relieved leaving Luna with Sam and Darryl - Luna clearly felt loved and cared for and the adorable pictures and updates everyday was so appreciated!! I felt at ease knowing Luna was in good hands... it looked like she was the one on vacation 😆 I will definitely book with Sam and Darryl again - thank you for looking after Luna ❤️”
“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!”
“We were so fortunate to have Aricela watch our foster dog when we had to travel out of the area u expectedly. She accommodated a last minute meet & greet and patiently listened to everything we knew about the dog. She was kind in her interactions with our pup. When we took him back to board he was like a confident kindergartner…one look over his shoulder and away he went! She kept us apprised of how he was doing & send photos to validate it. Thank you so much Araceli.”

“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.”
About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and have been a huge animal lover my whole life. I’ve always been a sitter for friends and family in need and figured I might as well expand my services. I have a big home and yard, with plenty of grass and room to run. Our home is very pet friendly, and they pretty much are free to roam as they please. My husband and I keep the home clean, but cozy. We have kids, cats, and dogs and everyone gets along. We keep the upstairs blocked off so the cats have their own space to play and relax. There are tile floors for a cool place to nap, dog beds, cat trees, and plenty of toys. I’m a nurse and CPR certified, so your fur baby is safe with me. I only ask that your pet is friendly, and if you have a dog that they are a minimal barker as we like to keep our neighbors happy. I can help with potty training, bathing, and medicines too…whatever your pet needs. All you need to provide is your pets favorite food. I’ll take care of the rest. I work part time as a nurse, usually during the nights and my husband is a stay at home dad. I have plenty of time and energy to devote to your fur baby. I have a large home and yard with plenty of grass. There are also several dog parks within our community for your fur baby to play.
“Our 2 year old Basset, Odie, had the time of his life. He and Todd and his 2 Shih Tzu bonded instantly. Video updates showed how much Odie was enjoying his stay. Thank you Todd. Absolutely the best!”
“Most excellent. Cubsy enjoyed his stay with Matt and Steve. Cubsy is a very social boy and loved having 2 or 3 other dogs to play with while we were gone. He came home tired. A very good sign. Matt provided updates. I also like that they put a tracker on Cubsy during his stay in the unlikely event he got loose. Both Matt and Steve are at home most days so no lack of companionship or supervision.”
About: GROWING UP, MY MOM ONLY ALLOWED US TO HAVE CATS AS PETS. WHEN I WAS 20-YEARS OLD, I ADOPTED MY FIRST PUPPY FROM THE LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK ANIMAL SHELTER. HE WAS AN AKITA/GERMAN SHEPPARD MIX & WE HAD HIM FOR 17-YEARS UNTIL WE HAD TO PUT HIM TO SLEEP 😞. I ADOPTED 4 OTHER PUPPIES AFTER THAT. I EMJOY THE COMPANY OF PETS MORE THEN I ENJOY THE COMPANY OF PEOPLE LOL 😂. PETS ARE MORE LOYAL. I KNOW THAT WE ALL TREAT OUR PETS LIKE OUR CHILDREN, SO WE SHOULD SPARE NO EXPENSE WHEN IT COMES TO PET SITTING/BOARDING. I AM CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED, SO MY SCHEDULE IS COMPLETELY OPEN. ALSO, MY PROFESSION IS WORKING AS EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT, SO I GET TO WORK REMOTELY. I CAN PROVIDE THE BEST CARE & ATTENTION ACCORDING TO MY SCHEDULE. OUR PROPERTY HAS AN EAST & WEST LAWN AREA THAT IS FENCED IN & SAFE. WE HAVE 3 VERY FRIENDLY & LOVABLE DOGS (6-YEAR OLD WHITE GERMAN SHEPPARD, 13-YEAR OLD COTTON DETULIA & 6-MONTH OLD BOXER). SAFETY & TRUST IS ALWAYS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF PET SITTING/BOARDING. MAKING SURE THAT BOTH HUMAN & PET ARE HAPPY & GET ALONG.
“April took care of my dog Leo for almost two weeks. She sent updates of Leo playing and being so happy! When I picked Leo up, I could tell he didn’t want to leave. Thank you April for taking such good care of my pup when we were gone :)”
“We feel so fortunate to have had Ken watch our dogs while we were away. Both dogs are rescues who are shy and slow to trust new people and Ken & David went out of their way to make them feel at ease. They made us feel at ease with all of the updates and pictures, too! If you’re looking for genuinely compassionate, reliable, dog-loving people to watch your fur kids, look no further!”

“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.”

“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! 💕”

“Jordyn is amazing! She is very communicative, responsible and cares deeply about animals! I was out of town for 3 days and she took care of my cats, took pictures and didn't have me worrying for a second. I will absolutely be giving her my business in the future. 12/10 would recommend!”
“We would book Christopher again without any hesitation. He took good care of Roxy, she was totally happy and probably didn't realize we were not around for a few days. Full attention she received, indeed. We received updates everyday. I came back and the house was impeccable too. Thank you soooo much.”

“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.”
“Louise is very sweet and welcoming to myself and my dogs. Communication is great with photo updates throughout the stay, updates on behavior, and activities during stay. Highly recommended.”
“Thank you for watching Nala! It’s tough leaving our old pup with strangers but she seemed very comfortable with Geraldine for the time being. Her place was a fun little getaway for our pup as well as it had big open yards and turf.”
“Tony took care of my sweet girl during our stair at Palmer Springs it was so good to find him as Tala sitter as he treated with care and love towards my pup. I recommend him to everyone. Thank you, Tony!”
“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 😊”

“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!”

“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.”
“Kevin was amazing. Our Italian Greyhound, Enzo - is very particular who he is comfortable to be around. Kevin was an instant magnet. During Enzo's stay with Kevin, we received photos, videos and updates. The entire time, Enzo was happy, full of energy and wanted to play. At the end of Enzo's stay, he was exhausted (which is awesome). Kevin is a highly recommended for any pup care needs. We will definitely use him again. Thank you Kevin!!”
“Jon with Doggie Zen Resort was fantastic with my dog, Jade. He truly understands dog behavior and keeps all his doggie boarders safe and manages their needs based on their personalities. His home is best suited for trained, well-balanced dogs.”

“Gabe is amazing!! We have a Great Dane and she absolutely adores him! He comes every day, twice a day and he is always on time, so kind and friendly and the dog lets out a howl of joy every time he approaches the door. I’m so grateful that we connected and can’t imagine daily life without his care for our pup! Highly highly highly recommend his services !”
“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.”
“Briana was fantastic! Her love for dogs, her communication and care are top notch. She sent me lots of photos of Riley and Ollie on their walk and she made sure both of them had water and some treats before leaving. We will definitely be booking Briana from now on for all of our dog sitting needs.”
“Christopher helped us out during our wedding day at The Ace hotel and went above and beyond! He walked and entertained our dog, Reggie, for over an hour while we got dressed for the wedding. As a rescue, Reggie can be a bit anxious around new people, but Chris was patient and calm. He came for a meet and greet before the day and got to know us and Reggie. On the day, he was prompt, communicative, and flexible. I was running late and Chris waited patiently for me to come grab Reggie. Reggie had such a great time with Christopher and we will definitely be booking again if we need a walker/sitter in Palm Springs.”
“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 am very attentive and passionate with the animals and have professional references to attest to that. I now work full time from home so I have ample time to keep your four legged friends company while I’m working. There won’t be a dull moment! My yard is completely fenced and accessible with a doggy door to ensure the pets have plenty of space to run and use the bathroom when needed. I do have a pool.
About: Hey I’m Nat! I have 2 pups of my own, a poodle mix and a Dalmatian/Great Dane :) I’ve also taken care of my friends and families pets including puppies, a kitten and some aquatic turtles and fish while they traveled!! Im self employed so i work on my own schedule from home!! Gives me lots of free time to take your pups on walks and/or care for them in my home. I have a fenced yard and both my pups are socialized/ crate trained as well as having different parts of my home closed off so I’d be able to keep your pup safe depending on their needs whether they do best without other pups or are social and wanna play.

“Alice was great and i could tell Harley had a good time playing with the other dogs there. She constantly provides updates with pictures & is quick to respond to all my messages. It definitely made me a lot better leaving harley for the weekend”
“Viviana was amazing!!! When we went to go pick up our dog she didn’t even want to come home and would rather have stayed with them 🤣 that’s how much our dog loved Viviana and her husband! This was our first time having someone dog sit and it went absolutely prefect. I also received updates on how our dog was doing and that was the best! I will be re-booking with Viviana in the future! My husband and I were extremely pleased with the experience. Thank you all so much.”

About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats, and have been a huge animal lover my whole life. I’ve always been a sitter for friends and family in need and figured I might as well expand my services. I have a big home and yard, with plenty of grass and room to run. Our home is very pet friendly, and they pretty much are free to roam as they please. My husband and I keep the home clean, but cozy. We have kids, cats, and dogs and everyone gets along. We keep the upstairs blocked off so the cats have their own space to play and relax. There are tile floors for a cool place to nap, dog beds, cat trees, and plenty of toys. I’m a nurse and CPR certified, so your fur baby is safe with me. I only ask that your pet is friendly, and if you have a dog that they are a minimal barker as we like to keep our neighbors happy. I can help with potty training, bathing, and medicines too…whatever your pet needs. All you need to provide is your pets favorite food. I’ll take care of the rest. I work part time as a nurse, usually during the nights and my husband is a stay at home dad. I have plenty of time and energy to devote to your fur baby. I have a large home and yard with plenty of grass. There are also several dog parks within our community for your fur baby to play.
“Our 2 year old Basset, Odie, had the time of his life. He and Todd and his 2 Shih Tzu bonded instantly. Video updates showed how much Odie was enjoying his stay. Thank you Todd. Absolutely the best!”
About: GROWING UP, MY MOM ONLY ALLOWED US TO HAVE CATS AS PETS. WHEN I WAS 20-YEARS OLD, I ADOPTED MY FIRST PUPPY FROM THE LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK ANIMAL SHELTER. HE WAS AN AKITA/GERMAN SHEPPARD MIX & WE HAD HIM FOR 17-YEARS UNTIL WE HAD TO PUT HIM TO SLEEP 😞. I ADOPTED 4 OTHER PUPPIES AFTER THAT. I EMJOY THE COMPANY OF PETS MORE THEN I ENJOY THE COMPANY OF PEOPLE LOL 😂. PETS ARE MORE LOYAL. I KNOW THAT WE ALL TREAT OUR PETS LIKE OUR CHILDREN, SO WE SHOULD SPARE NO EXPENSE WHEN IT COMES TO PET SITTING/BOARDING. I AM CURRENTLY UNEMPLOYED, SO MY SCHEDULE IS COMPLETELY OPEN. ALSO, MY PROFESSION IS WORKING AS EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT, SO I GET TO WORK REMOTELY. I CAN PROVIDE THE BEST CARE & ATTENTION ACCORDING TO MY SCHEDULE. OUR PROPERTY HAS AN EAST & WEST LAWN AREA THAT IS FENCED IN & SAFE. WE HAVE 3 VERY FRIENDLY & LOVABLE DOGS (6-YEAR OLD WHITE GERMAN SHEPPARD, 13-YEAR OLD COTTON DETULIA & 6-MONTH OLD BOXER). SAFETY & TRUST IS ALWAYS THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF PET SITTING/BOARDING. MAKING SURE THAT BOTH HUMAN & PET ARE HAPPY & GET ALONG.
“My Bernedoodle- Hattie had the best time with “Bo” the sitter, and Oreo the dog! I had my dog groomed before dropping her off, and they split her nail when trimming it. Bo, immediately put a clear cone of shame on her. And kept cleaning the area up and applied bedydine on the area. I picked her up last night, she was happy but limping. Took her to her Vet this afternoon, the Vet said, everything he did helped with a great outcome! Thank you Bo & Oreo! We will see you soon!”
“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!!”
“kevin was very attentive and wanted to make sure he kept our pups’ routine the same. he was patient with our nervous pup. his pups were excellent with our dogs too. he is very responsive. would book with kevin again!”
“Larry was very kind and responsive to us in regard to arranging for the boarding of our larger dog. He shared some details while she was there and included some photographs. Very helpful in this, our first use of Rover or this kind of service. It is great to know that there are people like Larry willing to open their homes to our cherished four-legged family members!”
“This was our first time using Rover instead of boarding and our experience was fantastic. Brandon sent texts twice a day with pictures on how Lola was doing. We were able to enjoy our stay in palm springs without worrying about Lola. If we stay in palm springs again we will definitely use again.”
“THE BEST! When simba and I originally met Brandon and William we knew we had found our dogs best companions! They were so gracious to invite us in and show us the space Simba would be staying in. On Simba's visit we were always provided updates and photos. Brandon and William are so kind and loving, your pet will go to the best home. Truly so appreciative for their care! Thank you!”
“Michael was really easy to work with. Quick to reply. Clear directions. Nice guy. He sent pics a few times and walked the dogs a couple of times per day. Mine was zonked out all night.”
“Jon was wonderful. His whole home is so dog friendly and our 7 1/2 year old dog was trained by Jon’s dog to use the doggie-door! We were able to enjoy our time out of town knowing that Jon had everything handled. He was in contact with us to give updates. Will definitely use his services again.”
