“Very pleased with Nuvea. Did a great job communicating, including updates and photosduring the boarding. Explained how she would transition my dog into her home with her drugs and cat. Would definitely rebook.”
About: I’ve 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.
“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!!”
“What a great dog boarding experience. The host was so friendly, and made us and our dog feel right at home. He was well taken care of and we would definitely have him stay with the host again. Thank you!”
“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.”
“Excellent experience. Our 3+ yr old Maltese loves these guys. He returns in a calm happy manner. They are very easy to work with as well. Have used 3x’s and remain very pleased.”
About: I have lived all my life in the South Bay. I went to school in Rolling Hills, I went to College in Long Beach. I have worked in the Aerospace industry since the 1980's. In 2012 rescued a Pitbull from a abusive life. So I immersed myself in learning the Dog Whispers' training methods. I have had a dog ever since my third birthday. I have worked with Dachshunds, Schnauzer Terriers, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull's, Poodles, Shih Tzu, and Beagles. I believe all dogs have been given to mankind to show us how to live life. Unconditional love, live in the moment, don't worry and greet everyone with excitement and love. In conclusion, I will always treat you family member as my own and love taking care of them. I am retired so I am very flexible. I currently Walk dogs for elderly people at the Apache Mobile Home park. I am looking to expanding my services outside the park. I have fenced yard and my home is open to the dogs I care for and I have water and treats available. Your pets are welcomed to my couches and dog beds or pet cage.
“Mike and his dad Stephan are the best Rover sitter’s we have ever used! Located in Palm Springs they have a dog friendly home with a large, enclosed wrap around yard with a pool. There is plenty of space for the dogs to run and play. We received updates and photos from Mike several times a day and it was clear that he enjoyed playing with our pups and they enjoyed him. I mistakenly miscalculated the food , but it was no problem as Mike made up for my shortfall. Although we offered to reimburse him, he politely declined. If you want someone to pay attention to your dogs, to play and alive them up, Mike is your guy! Our two labradoodles probably wore him out! Lucky them!”
“Juliann has a nice little boarding facility in her home. Juli took great care of my special needs dog (blind, neurological issues) while she was there. Juliann has the ability to keep her dogs separated from the boarding dogs or to integrate them depending on needs.”
“Alfonso was such a fantastic Rover - if i could give him more stars, I would! He was super communicative and his dog Phife couldn't have been a better new dog friend. Super sweet, playful and gentle. I will absolutely be booking Alfonso again. 10/10 recommend!”
“I contacted Matthew at the very last minute to see if he could board my dog starting that very same day - 3 hours notice. My husband and I were at a pet friendly vrbo with our two dogs and found out that they would only allow one. He got back to me right away and was able to accommodate me. He and his partner took in our rambunctious rescue Dachshund Hans and took excellent care of him all weekend. Hans has high energy and separation anxiety and they were undaunted by that. They have a lovely home with a big back yard and two adorable dogs of their own who were great playmates. Photos they sent showed fun times and some good cuddling with the humans. I can't recommend these gents enough and will always get in touch with them when we come to the Palm Springs area with our pooches.”
“Carl was the best Rover!!!!! Our dog Phoebe instantly bonded with him and his pups. Very clean house. Beautiful back yard for playing. He took great care of Phoebe and she adjusted great, which isn’t always the case. He send daily updates and even let Phoebe snuggle with him while sleeping, which she is used to at home. So nice she was welcomed as part of the family! We will definitely be using Carl in the future! 5/5 stars!”
“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.”
“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!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs for eleven years. As of right now I have two german shepherd, husky mix 1 year olds. I got them when they were 4 weeks old, they are absolutely my best friends. We spend all the time together, we love playing fetch and chase. I’m kind of a stay at home dog mommy. I am not working, I stay at home with my fur babies. I have extra time to help others with their fur babies. I love being around dogs. Im very aware of surroundings, especially with a fur baby. Once when taking my babies on a walk, they were attacked by another dog and it made me become even more protective than I was. I know how it feels to have people not respect the rules that we make for our babies, so I will always be so respectful of everything that is expected/ not expected.

“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.”
“Awesome day sitter for my high energy baby! Leighton clearly loves animals and takes good care of them. She updated me throughout the day so I felt at ease with a new sitter. Pip was definitely pooped when she got home!”
About: I have an overwhelming amount of experience when it comes to care for dogs. I was adamant, at a very young age, about volunteering at as many local shelters as possible. I also have never not had a dog in my care. I grew up in a home made extra warm by 5 schnauzers and even into my adult years I've owned my own dog, all rescues. A few I rehabilitated after they were neglected or abused. Dogs truly are a huge part of my life and I don't believe I'd be the same individual without them. Let me put it this way, I am the female Tom Hardy of Dogs haha! I work from home and so I am accessible to my pets and yours at all times! I’m also a very active individual. I like to hit the park or anywhere near a pond to take a jog or a walk(dependent on the weather of course). I have a fenced in dog run area for my pets and yours! Water is always accessible indoors and outdoors! Pets are also able to roam the house freely, and are worked with regularly with treats and praise!
“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.”

“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!”
“Elaine was fabulous! She was the perfect fit for Monte. They bonded right away. Elaine was flexible and easy to communicate with. Her home was clean and dog friendly. I would highly recommend Elaine and will surely use her services in the future.”

About: I've grown up with dogs, taking care of them regularly. Living in the desert has equipped me with the skills to care for animals in a harsh climate such as constantly providing water, scheduling walks out of the heat, and watching out for wildlife.

About: I’ve had more than a dozen pets in my life both from fostering and adopting and all of them have been shown love like never before. I love animals with my whole heart. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, a cat rescue, and I was a Girl Scout for 7 years. I love helping others and’s more than anything I want your pets to be happy, safe, and comfortable in your absence. I work part time 3 days a week for 7 hour shifts however they are typically scattered throughout the week on odd days and times. I am willing to do just about anything to attend to your pets needs and I will always make sure they are safe, healthy, and happy as can be in my care. In my own home I can feed, water, pet, love, cuddle, play with, go on walks with, and administer medications, and brush pets. I can do all of the same within clients homes with the exception of walks (IF I’m unfamiliar with the area).
About: Hello! Don't let my profile location deter you from reaching out, I have a very wide service area. I am available to care for all of your pets while you're away! Please contact me for a quote if you have a pet you'd like me to care for other than a dog or cat (submit it as a dog/cat request) ☺️ New to Rover? I have a discount code for you if you book your first service with me! I am available for night and evening drop-ins to feed and play with your pets. Do you work nights and hate leaving your babies alone? Are you going to a fancy dinner and want to make sure your pets are okay when you're gone? I can come by and give you some peace of mind. I can also care for other pets, including lizards, fish, hamsters, rabbits, etc. I am a huge animal lover. I adopted a senior dog years ago and he was the best dog ever, up until his very last day in December, 2023. Our household has water snails, fish, three cats, a dog, and a pig! I have experience with rabbits and hamsters and other small pets, and I have experience with special needs animals. My longest boarding to date was 5 months for a senior cat with Cerebellar hypoplasia. My schedule recently changed, so I am available on most days for drop-ins and walks. I also offer boarding, house sitting, and daycare. We are a very animal friendly household. I have a fenced yard and a kiddie pool so your doggos can play and keep cool! My piggy will be there to keep your baby company and I have a 14 year old kid who loves to snuggle and play with all your pets! Cats will enjoy their own space so they can feel comfortable ☺️ !!!Important Notes!!!: I love watching and caring for your snuggle bug(s)! However, I have to sleep too. If you can't pick up your pet before 7pm, one additional day of boarding or doggy daycare will be added to your booking. An additional fee will be added for dogs over 40 pounds. Dogs under 1 year and/or "bully breeds" will be accepted on a case-by-case basis. By booking with me, you acknowledge that if your puppo damages property, you are responsible for any cost of repairs or replacement. When damage occurs, it is usually caused by pets that do not crate or have high anxiety when left alone for even short periods. My policy on dog breeds and sizes is in place because of two separate incidents. First, I lost a beloved pet to a boarded Rover doggo on Christmas morning, 2020. Having to put my little pig Minnie in the freezer after being attacked on Christmas morning was a horribly traumatic experience. In June 2023 I was attacked by a 110lb Rover dog at a meet and greet and had to go to the hospital. If the owner had not been present, I would have been killed. These are incidents that I will not risk repeating. Thank you so much for understanding!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life—especially large breeds. Growing up, our home was always full of wagging tails large and small. Caring for our family dogs came as naturally as anything else. That early bond with animals shaped my love for pet care, and today, I’m lucky enough to share my life with my own Golden Retriever. I’m also an active duty service member, which means I bring a strong sense of responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail into everything I do—including caring for your pet. Whether it’s a walk, a weekend stay, or just some extra playtime, I treat every dog like my own: with patience, affection, and respect. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a dog owner myself, my wife and I have a consistent routine that includes morning and evening playtime in our yard. , feeding, playtime, and training sessions. Being in the military, I’m used to structure and time management, which makes it easy to plan and prioritize pet care throughout my week. Whether it’s making time for a long walk after work or adjusting my schedule for a pup who needs extra attention, I’m always ready to give pets the care and companionship they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my approach is the same: create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets feel at ease. In my home, I make sure dogs have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel like part of the family—including my own friendly Golden Retriever, who loves having a buddy around. I stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules to preferred walking times and any special care instructions. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care as I do my own. I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and comfort, keep everything clean, and make sure they get plenty of affection and activity. Whether it’s a drop-in visit or an overnight stay, I always prioritize communication so you feel informed and confident while you’re away.
About: Extensive experience providing attentive, one-on-one dog walking with a focus on safety, structure, and personalized care. Every walk is tailored to your dog’s needs. My schedule is open Monday through Friday. On weekends, I work as an Activities Assistant at a care home, which reflects my strong background in responsibility, patience, and compassionate care. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible. This includes regular walks, fresh water, playtime, and lots of positive attention. Safety is always my top priority, so I make sure pets are secure, comfortable, and supervised at all times. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, energy level, and any special needs to provide calm, consistent, and personalized care. I also keep owners updated and treat every pet with patience, respect, and the same care I would give my own.

Your pet can fit into my daily schedule with no problem. I have my own car so I need to pick up or drop off that will be no issue. I do not work, I am at home all day with my husband who works from home so 2 people are available to tend to your furr baby. Taking the furr babies out for a walk or just to sit/lay in the sun for a couple of hours would be no issue what so ever. My dog is treated like a baby, she is allowed to have treats before her walks or when I am having a snack, she has lots of toys in her little basket in the living room. She sleeps in our bed but has her own bed in our room next to us. She is my little baby ☺️☺️
“So happy I found James to take care of my animals! He is dependable, great with communication, and my babes were all happy when I got back home. Thanks so much for everything :)”
About: For many years I've taken care of animals. I have acquired an ability to adapt to the needs of specific pets. Whatever they need, I'm there. I'm detail oriented and very observant when it comes to animals. Rest assured, I will make sure your baby is taken care of to the best of my ability. Comfort and care are my priorities. I'm extremely open! I like to work around your schedule. I live with family right now and do online schooling. It's asynchronous meaning I can do it any time. I always keep my pets comfortable and clean. From grooming, to cleaning bedding and washing out bowls. I'm very cautious to any contaminates that can compromise the safety of a pet. Bacteria is especially rampant in outdoor areas, so I make sure my dogs are clean in the area they sleep/eat.
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 have taken care of dogs for eleven years. As of right now I have two german shepherd, husky mix 1 year olds. I got them when they were 4 weeks old, they are absolutely my best friends. We spend all the time together, we love playing fetch and chase. I’m kind of a stay at home dog mommy. I am not working, I stay at home with my fur babies. I have extra time to help others with their fur babies. I love being around dogs. Im very aware of surroundings, especially with a fur baby. Once when taking my babies on a walk, they were attacked by another dog and it made me become even more protective than I was. I know how it feels to have people not respect the rules that we make for our babies, so I will always be so respectful of everything that is expected/ not expected.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets and children since I was a child myself! I love spending time with animals, I’m your human when it comes to your fur babies! I currently work from home so I have an easy schedule to work around and can work from anywhere! My availability is very flexible currently. I have a fenced yard and the house is large to accommodate more than one. I have a German Shepherd who is a bit apprehensive of other dogs due to a history of aggression from inside his former home. We sequester him while boarding.

Space is limited so that your dog receives personal attention. Any special feeding habits, veterinarian contacts and vaccinations are requested. I look forward to talking and meeting with both you and your pets. If possible, a "Meet and Greet would be recommended to acclimate your pets to my environment, helping them to better adjust to something new in their schedule.

My environment is very safe and secure and over 15 years have never had a pet escape. I can always crate your dog if needed.

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.
“What a great dog boarding experience. The host was so friendly, and made us and our dog feel right at home. He was well taken care of and we would definitely have him stay with the host again. Thank you!”
“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.”
“Excellent experience. Our 3+ yr old Maltese loves these guys. He returns in a calm happy manner. They are very easy to work with as well. Have used 3x’s and remain very pleased.”
About: I have lived all my life in the South Bay. I went to school in Rolling Hills, I went to College in Long Beach. I have worked in the Aerospace industry since the 1980's. In 2012 rescued a Pitbull from a abusive life. So I immersed myself in learning the Dog Whispers' training methods. I have had a dog ever since my third birthday. I have worked with Dachshunds, Schnauzer Terriers, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull's, Poodles, Shih Tzu, and Beagles. I believe all dogs have been given to mankind to show us how to live life. Unconditional love, live in the moment, don't worry and greet everyone with excitement and love. In conclusion, I will always treat you family member as my own and love taking care of them. I am retired so I am very flexible. I currently Walk dogs for elderly people at the Apache Mobile Home park. I am looking to expanding my services outside the park. I have fenced yard and my home is open to the dogs I care for and I have water and treats available. Your pets are welcomed to my couches and dog beds or pet cage.
“Mike and his dad Stephan are the best Rover sitter’s we have ever used! Located in Palm Springs they have a dog friendly home with a large, enclosed wrap around yard with a pool. There is plenty of space for the dogs to run and play. We received updates and photos from Mike several times a day and it was clear that he enjoyed playing with our pups and they enjoyed him. I mistakenly miscalculated the food , but it was no problem as Mike made up for my shortfall. Although we offered to reimburse him, he politely declined. If you want someone to pay attention to your dogs, to play and alive them up, Mike is your guy! Our two labradoodles probably wore him out! Lucky them!”
“Juliann has a nice little boarding facility in her home. Juli took great care of my special needs dog (blind, neurological issues) while she was there. Juliann has the ability to keep her dogs separated from the boarding dogs or to integrate them depending on needs.”
“Alfonso was such a fantastic Rover - if i could give him more stars, I would! He was super communicative and his dog Phife couldn't have been a better new dog friend. Super sweet, playful and gentle. I will absolutely be booking Alfonso again. 10/10 recommend!”
“Carl was the best Rover!!!!! Our dog Phoebe instantly bonded with him and his pups. Very clean house. Beautiful back yard for playing. He took great care of Phoebe and she adjusted great, which isn’t always the case. He send daily updates and even let Phoebe snuggle with him while sleeping, which she is used to at home. So nice she was welcomed as part of the family! We will definitely be using Carl in the future! 5/5 stars!”
“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.”
“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!!”
“Jon was a gracious host and an excellent communicator. Our pup Charlie had some bad separation anxiety, so we had to pick him up early. Jon did everything he could to calm his nerves while he had him. Would definitely recommend Jon for other pet sitting while you’re in Palm Springs.”
“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.”
