“I recently entrusted Joy with the care of my dog, Cali, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her dedication and attention to detail. Throughout Cali’s stay, Joy consistently provided me with photos and videos, showing me how well my dog was being cared for. It was clear that Cali was happy, well-fed, and had plenty of playtime. Joy went above and beyond to ensure Cali felt at home, and her updates gave me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Joy to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.”

“Brandon is a total gem! He and Billy are both so kind and caring. My two pups took to them immediately and had a wonderful time. Brandon is a great communicator and provided timely updates. I had a little mix-up with my dates, and Brandon was so flexible and accommodating with the change. I can't recommend them enough and my two pups can't wait to stay with them again.”

“Jackson was straightforward to deal with. Responsive to phone or email contact. We had a pre-meet-up to get acquainted and then dropped Bentley off on the "leave off" day. He was anxious about our leaving, but Jackson was kind enough to send pictures of his stay for the couple of days he was there. All in all, it was a pleasant experience for Bentley, and we seemed to adjust perfectly. :-)”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous about leaving my baby. I’m glad I trusted Rover and Don. He took great care of Coco and supervised her closely. She went on daily walks and returned so happy. I hated to be away from her during the holidays but grateful she was in good care. He sent multiple pictures to keep me updated on her stay. You can tell he has a great love for animals.”

“Brandon was wonderful with my dog during an overnight stay. He provided great communication and regular updates, which gave me peace of mind. It’s clear he’s both knowledgeable and kind—my dog was in excellent hands.”

“I felt good about leaving Max with Erin. Her home is clean and free of potential hazards. There is plenty of space for my dog to roam in a fenced in environment and a cool place to potty in the back and sides of her home. She kept me thoroughly updated through out the day with pictures and messages. I would use her services again.”

I’m attentive, patient, and treat every pet like my own I am a stay at home mom so I’ll be home with your pet most of the day!

“The perfect host for our labradoodles first time away from home Ana was incredibly loving kind responsive , sent pictures was so accommodating we will use her again if ever in the area ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“She took very good care of my senior dog Fiyero. She always update me and send me pictures of feeding times in the morning and afternoon and also during bedtime getting him ready to sleep. Highly recommended to take care of your fur babies.”

“I can’t recommend Joan enough! Absolutely 5 stars, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Leaving my two cats for 4 nights is never something I take lightly, but from the very beginning, I felt completely at ease. She was incredibly kind and accommodating on short notice when I needed to extend their stay last minute which I really appreciated. Communication was consistent and thoughtful, with updates and photos that reassured me they were not only safe, but genuinely comfortable and cared for. When I picked them up, they were calm, happy, and completely themselves, which says everything. Reliable, kind, and clearly experienced—I wouldn’t have anyone else look after my boys! I highly recommend to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like their own.”

“Katie was beyond amazing. She took great care of my furbaby while I was out of state for several days. I was so anxious to leave Brownie with a stranger, but Katie constantly provided me a peace of mind by sending me tons of pictures. I felt so bad when Brownie made a scene when Katie tried to leave him by himself for a very short amount of time to run the errand, so she eventually had to cancel and stay with him all the time during his stay. I felt so sorry, but she was so kind and told me that puppies can be like Brownie when in a strange place. She was very patient with Brownie, and I really appreciate it. She is the perfect person that you can rely on when you can't take care of your furbaby by yourself.”

“Sierra was absolutely wonderful to work with. Extremely accommodating and looked out for our Australian Shepherd's best interests. Was wonderful in sending pictures each day along with updates. We are so grateful.”

“Absolutely the best. I have a difficult dog, and Candace was extremely confident and loving with her. I have full peace of mind when she's watching my dog. Thank you Candace!”

“Alexandra B looked after my 2 Portuguese Water dogs for 4 nights and the dogs received excellent care. I received photos everyday while I was away along with a status update. Very helpful in knowing the dogs were doing okay. I will definitely use Alexandra the next time I need someone to look after my dogs”


“Amy went above and beyond for my dog daughter Dooda. Communication was 110%. In fact I never had the opportunity to reach out on my own during her stay because Amy was very diligent with photos and updates. I could tell she had a great time during her stay & even showed signs of missing her weekend getaway sitter! I’m sure this will be my go too for sitting when In need! Thanks again!”

“Dolores was fantastic! Will definitely rebook with her when in I’m back in the area. She was extremely caring and attentive to my dog with some special needs and various medications. She was very communicative, sharing pics and videos as well as flexible several schedule changes.”

About: I just moved back to California, residing in La Quinta with my cat. Eager to work and make new friends. Love animals and happy to care for yours. I have extensive experience with caring for pets: dogs, cats, feral cats, abandoned kittens and have fostered cats. I volunteered at a shelter and Petco adoptions for years. I have my own cat, he is a vivacious bengal named Tango. Tango is dog friendly, kid friendly, people friendly, leash trained, litter box trained, plays fetch, opens doors, travels the world, dreams of modeling in Paris… I have put a lot of time and love into caring for my cat and approach all pets I care for with the same love and attention.
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover whose instinct has always been to care for pets in need—I used to bring home every stray I found! As a devoted dog owner, my own pup is my constant companion. When he can't join me, I hire a trusted sitter, so I understand firsthand the peace of mind that comes from reliable, attentive care. I will treat your pet with the same patience, respect, and detailed attention I expect for my own. You can count on consistent updates and my full focus to ensure your furry family member is safe, happy, and well-cared-for. I work a consistent full-time job with an 8-hour shift, which means I’m available for drop-ins and walks before 7-8 AM and after 6 PM most days. My top priority is providing a safe, trustworthy experience in your home. I follow strict protocols: securing your home (locking doors/gates precisely as found), focusing solely on your pet with no distractions, and adhering meticulously to your instructions for their safety and routine. You’ll receive prompt updates and photos after every visit, so you’re always informed.
“I have three large dogs — which is no small feat — and finding someone I trust with them is everything. Our sitter was absolutely incredible. She didn’t just watch them; she was fully engaged, spending more time playing with them than I usually get to myself. My dogs can be a handful, and she handled them with so much energy and love. I came home to three happy, tired pups, which says it all. Highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with big or high-energy dogs!”

About: With 25 years of animal care experience, a deep love for animals, a flexible schedule, and excellent references, I'll meet all of your pet care needs. Educated and empathetic, I 'get' people and their animals, and enjoy providing the same level of care that I give my own beloved dog. I'll always bend over backward to ensure that both you and your pet have a wonderful experience. Pet-sitting is a choice for me, and one that I'm making because I love to meet and care for animals. I look forward to making your day or week better by caring for your pet and/or your home while you are away. If there's anything I can do to make your day easier, just ask! I look forward to meeting you! I have a flexible work schedule, and I’m able to work at home whenever I like. I love to get out and run and walk, and can provide just about any breed as much exercise as they need. Unfortunately, my building has some breed restrictions including pit bulls and wolf breeds. I’m happy to look after all breeds for housesitting and walks. I only take one dog at a time into my home, unless it is a bonded pair. I do strongly prefer a meet and greet before hand so we can make sure it is a good fit, both for your pup and for my home. I am committed to making this a positive experience for all of us.I love dogs and will care for your dog as though it were my own.

“I was in Palm Springs for the weekend and needed daycare for my two dogs (1yo Shepherd and 8yo Husky) for three days. I was very nervous about the puppy because he is high energy and I have only had him dogsat one other time for just one day. Ana was so great with my dogs! I could tell they had a great time because on the second day they couldn't wait to go back and even ran straight to her door as soon as they got out of the car. I felt really comfortable leaving my dogs with Ana. She played with them regularly, gave them cuddles and sent my pictures of them every few hours to put me at ease. If I am ever back in the area would be sure to use her services again. Thank you Ana for taking such good care of my pups!”

About: I am a cat mom to a bengal cat named Tango. Tango’s favorite activities include playing fetch, taking walks along the Seine (he’s just returned from 2 years in Paris) and play dates with his homies Hammy & Otie (dogs). 🫶🏼 Tango aspires to be a Royal Canin model. We live in a house in La Quinta with a fenced yard, great for playing and exercise while confined. Residential neighborhood near old town and the park. Great area for walks, safe and clean. I mostly work from home, unless I have to travel. Otherwise I am available all hours and can schedule according to your pets specific needs. I care for all pets the same way I would want my kitty cared for. My cat is like my child, he has a very unique personality and style that I have fostered since I got him. I approach each animal according to their unique personality and their owner’s caretaking style.
“Michelle was great with our dog, Rusty. She was great at communicating with us and making us feel welcome at her house. I loved how she sent me photos during the day and took him on walks. He was so happy when we picked him up. I definitely recommend Michelle as a great pet sitter. Thank you!”

“Our puppy Moby loves Katie and would run up to her when he sees her. Katie is always willing to care for Moby whenever we need her, even on short notice. She communicates with us during Moby’s stay with her, with pictures and comments about how he’s doing. We love Katie too because she is a caring lady who loves our puppy as much as we do.”

“I’m so happy to have tried Rover for the first time and Diane was wonderful! It was so nice to enjoy a full day out with friends and to not worry about Griffon. When we come back for a visit to La Quinta, I will definitely reach out to Diane again. Thank you so much!”

“Our big girl Bee had a fabulous vacation at the Brandon and Billy “resort!” This is the second time they have cared for Bee while we enjoy the tennis tournament and it hopefully won’t be the last. They are wonderful with her.”

“My husband took Rocky over to Joan's house to see how he would do prior to an upcoming trip. This was the first time we left him with someone other than family and I can't thank Joan enough for the pictures. It relieved a lot of stress for me and I know he will be in great hands when we are out of town for several days. Thanks again Joan, see you next week!! Colleen”

“Natalie watched our Siberian Husky mix twice while we explored Joshua Tree Nat’l Park. She was awesome to work with and took great care of our older dog, who is on a few meds. We received several pictures each day and Blance was clearly happy when we picked her up and super excited when we dropped her off the second day, so we know she had a great experience.”

About: I've had 2 dogs my whole life. Both which lived over 10 years each. I've also taken care of my daughters 3 labs since they were puppies. I am retired and live in a casita so I can give all my attention to your fur babies. I'm available most of the time since I'm retired. I love walking everyday everywhere . Please feel free to contact me anytime. Monday through Friday are the best days for me. I don't have any dogs so I don't have to worry about that. And your dog will be safe with me in my secured house.
“Don was amazing! I just got my dog from a rescue so I was pretty nervous leaving him so soon but I felt so at ease with Don taking care of him. He had a great day and pickup was super smooth. Don is super knowledgeable and mindful of your pet, which gives me so much peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

“Jackson was amazing! He was very patient with my booking despite my schedule changes. My dogs usually come back from boarding scared and full of pent-up energy, but with Jackson they came home happy and calm. He took them on walks and spent real one-on-one time with them. Highly recommend — I’ll be booking with him from now on!”

“Patrick and Caroline took great care of our dog for a few hours at their home in a gated community. They were quick to respond to email exchanges. They also sent us a photo. My dog was so relaxed in their care.”

About: My father raised black labs for hunting so I’ve been around dogs my entire life. This last year is the first year I haven’t had a dog as I lost the last of my pack of five Thanksgiving 2023. Before I commit to another I thought I would give my puppy love to others’ pets. My children are allergic to cats so I can’t sit cats unless you have the hairless versions. I live on a gorgeous golf course where I can walk your dog (s). Due to my children’s (grandchildren’s) allergies I do prefer dogs who are hypoallergenic. If your dog can swim, we can exercise in the pool but I also have a safety gate around the pool if they can’t swim (for my grands). I spoil my pets so if you don’t want that you better tell me in advance! I have my own business and make my own hours . Your pet will be my priority and buddy while they are with me. The longest time I would be gone is two hours for a mahjong game if I’m sitting during the winter months. I will care for your dogs the way you want them to be cared for. My dogs had free range of the house when I was home. When I was gone they were crated mostly because of the alarm system. I play music for them when I’m gone too. At night, if they don’t shed, they are welcome to sleep in the bed. If they shed, they can sleep on the floor on a cushy pad next to me. If they are used to being crated then I will crate them. Please bring the crate they are used to, as I have donated my crates. I still have lots of dog beds but love the excuse to get more.
“Jill and her husband were so kind and welcoming! They welcomed Nobu with open arms and took such great care of him. They took him on walks, and let him dip in the pool, the ideal day! Would definitely have them watch Nobu again!”

About: Since growing up I have had dogs, take care of my friends dogs and know the importance for a dog to be out and social. I would like to help those that work and do not have time to give your doggie attention. Adding a pup to my daily life would be a fun addition to my routine. I have a fenced house, and will be home with your pets. I have open space and live close to areas that can take dogs out.
“Brandon is an excellent caregiver for pets. He's responsive, reliable and most important. My dogs really liked him and felt comfortable and safe. Thank you so much we appreciate it.”

About: I got my first pet when I was six years old. Since then, I have been taking care of dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish for over 15 years. My friends, family, and neighbors rely on me to feed their pets, take them on walks, bathe them and even trim their nails, if needed. I love all pets and enjoy taking care of them as if they were my own. I can fit your schedule anytime with a week’s notice. For walks, mornings are more favorable due to weather conditions. For emergency care, one day advance would be preferred. I have a fenced yard where your dogs can play outside on the grass or they can enjoy indoor play with cool A/C. They’ll have their own room or they can be crated if needed.

We are so happy to have someone we can trust and count on to take care of Casper when needed. We will definitely be booking with Baylen again.”

About: Human to Shadow, a 6 year old male. After adopting him as a 6 week old puppy, I became fully invested in learning more about how I can provide my pups with the best care while enjoying life together.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with 10 years of experience caring for family pets. I've grown up with dogs & cats and have always been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family. I love getting to know each dog's unique personality and understand that some pups need a little extra time and patience to feel comfortable. ❤️ I also have a senior dog with a heart condition (my soul pup), so I'm experienced with medications, special care instructions, and keeping pets on a consistent schedule. 💊⏰ Whether your pet needs a potty break, meal, playtime, medication, or just some companionship, I'll treat them like one of my own. 🐶🐱 I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I prioritize communication and send detailed updates with photos after every visit! 📸 I work from home full-time, which gives me flexibility to accommodate many scheduling needs throughout the day.

“Jackson was straightforward to deal with. Responsive to phone or email contact. We had a pre-meet-up to get acquainted and then dropped Bentley off on the "leave off" day. He was anxious about our leaving, but Jackson was kind enough to send pictures of his stay for the couple of days he was there. All in all, it was a pleasant experience for Bentley, and we seemed to adjust perfectly. :-)”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous about leaving my baby. I’m glad I trusted Rover and Don. He took great care of Coco and supervised her closely. She went on daily walks and returned so happy. I hated to be away from her during the holidays but grateful she was in good care. He sent multiple pictures to keep me updated on her stay. You can tell he has a great love for animals.”

“Brandon was wonderful with my dog during an overnight stay. He provided great communication and regular updates, which gave me peace of mind. It’s clear he’s both knowledgeable and kind—my dog was in excellent hands.”

“Our Aussie has stayed with Elizabeth 3x now and it’s been great every time. Aussies are a bit of an *acquired taste* and Elizabeth has been nothing but understanding and loving towards Bleu. We get lots of pictures and it’s clear Bleu feels very comfortable with her and her family. Highly recommend!”

About: With a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals, I bring both knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I look after. I’ve raised a wide variety of animals over the years, and from a young age I’ve always had a heart for helping—often taking in and caring for strays in need. Today, I continue that passion on my small ranch, where I care for animals daily and understand their unique needs, behaviors, and personalities. My experience includes feeding routines, basic health awareness, administering simple care, and creating a safe, calm environment for animals of all kinds. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’m patient and attentive to what makes them feel secure and happy. I also offer faith-based care, treating every animal with kindness, respect, and a sense of purpose. I believe in providing a peaceful, loving environment where your pet will feel at home and well cared for while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day and able to give animals consistent care and attention. I check on them in the morning, midday, and evening to make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting the care they need. My daily routine allows me to provide a steady, safe, and attentive environment for every pet. I provide safe, reliable care by respecting each pet’s unique needs. I follow owner instructions closely, maintain a secure environment, and make sure every fur baby feels comfortable and cared for. You can have peace of mind knowing your animal is in trustworthy, compassionate hands.

“Christine took very good care of my dog, Mika. She sent regular updates with photos, and was quick to respond to my check-ins as well. Overall, very positive experience. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes since I was a young girl, and animals have always been a natural part of my life. I’ve rescued dogs throughout my adulthood and loved every breed, personality, and quirky soul that’s come my way. Even cats — despite my allergies — tend to walk right up to me, which always makes me smile. I’ll still care for them with love (and a little help from allergy meds). I’m an empath with a deep, intuitive connection to animals. Nervous, shy, senior, or sensitive pets usually relax around me quickly. I read their body language, respect their boundaries, and create a calm, predictable environment where they feel safe and understood. I also bring professional caregiving skills to my pet care. As a retired massage therapist and longtime caregiver, I can offer gentle pet massage, calming touch, and support for aging, compassionate end of life care and support or anxious dogs. I’m comfortable providing wound care, administering medications, and injections for diabetic animal when needed. What truly sets me apart is the combination of lifelong love of animals, my experience, intuition, and genuine compassion. Your pet will be cared for with patience, warmth, and the same steady presence I’ve brought to every animal I’ve loved. I create a calm, predictable environment where pets feel safe, understood, and cared for in my Home or Yours. I will respect your home, your space, your privacy and the trust you placed in me.
