“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!!”
“Alan and Joe were fantastic, and my dogs loved being there. I was nervous, as they’ve never stayed away from home, but Joe and Alan made them feel right home and calmed my nerves. We may have found our go-to sitters.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Sam is awesome! He always does a great job taking care of our Teddy. He sends tons of cute pics and always asks questions about his care to make sure Teddy gets the best while we are away. 100% recommend to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“Jackson was very accommodating with drop off and pick up Times during the holiday season. He is very responsive to communication through the app. Chewy came back super happy. We will definitely use Jackson again.”
“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.
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Andranise is great. She asked really good questions about Murray, so she could understand and meet his needs. She contacted us regularly with photos and notes about Murray. She included him wonderfully into her Thanksgiving celebration. Whenever we have to travel without Murray, he will definitely stay with Andranise!”
“Shelly is lovely and our dogs had a blast with her over the weekend. It's always daunting to think of finding care for your fur babies in a new city, and I am so grateful to have found awesome company for our little pups when we are away:)”
“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.”
“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.”

“Lydia was terrific and put my mind at ease while away from my pets. Very communicative and on top of the photographs each visit, which is much appreciated. Will definitely look to hire Lydia again on my next trip.”
“Kevin watched my cat for a week and did a superb job! The communication was constant, and he went above and beyond to ensure my cat was safe in the house on these hot summer days. He's a sitter I will definitely call again when I need services. Thanks Kevin !”
“Rich is amazing! This is second time he helped with our two Burmeses cats. Rich feed them medications and food twice a day on time. Rich was attentive, easy going and responsive. We definitely ask him to help out again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience hiring James. He was incredibly conscientious and professional. I unfortunately made a mistake with giving him an incorrect alarm code and he handled it perfectly. If you are at all concerned with hiring a trust worthy and honest pet pal, look no further. Thanks you so much James and once again I apologize for the mess up.”
About: I have experience taking care of my own cats and cats around my neighborhood. I fully understand how important pets are to their families. I am responsible, patient, and caring, and I enjoy spending time with animals. I can help with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners .
“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 prioritize each pet’s comfort, routine, and emotional well-being, treating every animal as if they were my own. I’m attentive to behavior cues, patient with all temperaments, and committed to keeping pets happy, healthy, and stress-free while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine as a consistent responsibility that I plan around other commitments. On a daily basis, I incorporate feeding, walking, playtime, and check-ins into structured time blocks to ensure pets stay on their normal schedule. Weekly, I schedule pet sitting jobs in advance, allowing time for longer stays, exercise, and maintaining routines like grooming or medication if needed. I prioritize reliability and make sure each pet receives focused attention without rushing or overlap in care. I care for pets in their home by maintaining their normal routine in a familiar, low-stress environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and bedtime routines. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them consistent attention, affection, and supervision.

I respect the home by keeping it tidy and secure, and I provide updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.
“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.”
“Briana was so great with our 3 cats! She left very detailed reports and plenty of pictures while we were away for the week. I would definitely recommend Briana to watch your pets!”
“Maureen did an amazing job with my shy anti social cat Sonny. It was clear that she really engaged with him because he had none of the "annoyed cat" attitude when I got home. I would gladly book her again, in fact I am after I post this review. If you need a great pet sitter, Maureen is the person!”
“Sarah did a great job with drop-in visits for our two cats while we were traveling. She was very attentive to their needs, and she understands how stressful it can be for cats to be home alone, so she went the extra mile to make sure our kitties had toys available, a little catnip and playtime during her visits, and some TV sounds during the day. We have had sitters in the past who just come and feed the cats and don't give them much attention, so we really appreciated Sarah's efforts to provide play, enrichment, and attention. We also had some flight cancellation issues, and she was very accommodating with the booking and was great with communication. We will use Sarah again the next time we're out of town.”
“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”
About: I've helped several Palm Springs area families with cat care in their homes. Traditionally, I do a daily drop-in to check on and feed the cats. I've helped families with anywhere from 1 to 5 cats in their home. I've also hosted a few kittens at my home.
About: After spending years of my life growing up on a farm with 7 family dogs of all shapes and sizes, heards of horses & cows, alpacas, birds, cats and even reptiles, looking after animals has become second nature to me. Now, even though I've relocated to the desert and own no pets of my own, dogs still hold a special place in my heart. I've been providing pet care professionally for 8 years and been working with Rover for about 4 years now and have loved every second of it. While in my care, your pets will recieve the utmost attention. I guarantee that the entirety of the time that your dog is under my care their day will be filled with walks, fetch, home made healthy dog treats and fun with friendly company. I work from home doing online marketing which allows me to provide nearly 24 hour care and companionship. So you'll never have to worry about your pets feeling abandoned or lonely while you're on your trip. I love to know as much as possible about the daily life and schedule of your animals so I can help make them feel as if you've never even left. My flexible job also gives me the ability to work with senior pets or pets that are on medication / feeding / bathroom schedules who need someone to be more attentive to their needs throughout the day. I'm also certified in Canine First Aid so in case of emergency I will be able to stay calm and collected and give your dog the care and comfort it needs until a solution is found. I'm happy to provide walks, play time and even trips to the dog park if thats something you'd like for your pet. My goal is to make sure they feel just as loved and cared for by me as they do when you're home with them. I'll also gladly bring in mail for you, water any plants that might need maintenance, and keep your home clean with things just how you left them. Bathing & grooming are also available as well! Note for outcall house sitting: While my rate listed is per pet, I normally have a two pet minimum for outcall house sitting to ensure I'm compensated enough for travel effort and expense so single pet house sits will have a higher rate to meet my minimum requirement. Discounted rates are available for extended stays and stays with higher numbers of animals. Thanks! I have been doing petcare on the side as supplemental means while still doing marketing from home so I am available and flexible to look after animals any day of the week:) My home is a safe, enclosed, fully air conditioned environment for dogs to feel comfortable and taken care of in. There’s plenty of grassy areas for us to go out on walks and potty breaks when need be!

“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.”
“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!!”

“I am SOOOOOOO thrilled that Mike is back from his San Diego summer. My 'Termie' really missed him. And while the other sitters were good, Mike and Stephen are definitely my go to team. I have never found better dog sitters than them. They are genuinely friendly and nice. They also have a great yard and beautiful home. My Termie even got so excited as we came up to their front door. I have full confidence in them and will continue to have my baby stay with them whenever possible.”
“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!”

“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!”
“Shelly was amazing with our semi-anxious Roxy! If you are in the Palm Springs area, and want to do those things that dogs can’t do (Indian Canyon or the Tram) I would not hesitate to book Shelly:)”
“Benji was a wonderful sitter. This was the first time my Jaxson was with an I know sitter. Benji sent updates and photos throughout the time. Picked up Jaxson and he was happy and relaxed. He had a great time. What a joy and ease this was. Thank you, Benji!”
“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!”
“Dazier was ABSOLUTELY amazing with my boy. He was worn out by the time we picked him up and we had had av great night sleep after a full long day. Im so grateful we found him last minute on our Palm Springs trip. 💕”
“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!”
“Maureen was great, friendly, and I could tell she really cares about animals. This was my first time using Rover, and I'm so glad I found her. My lil pup also told me he had a great time! I would definitely use her again!”

“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 !”
“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.”
“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.”
“Bubba (large crazy Aussiepoo) immediately loved Eric when they met. He comes barreling in after his walks. Evidently they have a great time together! Eric is a great person and I am happy my furry friend and he get along so well. Highly recommend”
“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!”

“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”
“Alan and Joe were fantastic, and my dogs loved being there. I was nervous, as they’ve never stayed away from home, but Joe and Alan made them feel right home and calmed my nerves. We may have found our go-to sitters.”
“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!”
“Jackson was very accommodating with drop off and pick up Times during the holiday season. He is very responsive to communication through the app. Chewy came back super happy. We will definitely use Jackson again.”
“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.
“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.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Dennis and Tom are a dream to work with for dog boarding. They took such wonderful care of our pup while away and she came back happy and energetic. They communicate well through the whole process from meet-up, drop-off, pick-up and everything in between. They are fun, too, and exuude positivity - clearly dog lovers. I am very grateful for them and you will be too.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Eric was very communicative, friendly, and great with Nelly. He sent lots of updates and photos! We know our dog was in good hands and will be using him again to sit for us.”
“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!”
“Worked with me an absolutely insane amount on just about everything. Texted me updates and all that, really just did everything. Could not have felt more comfortable leaving her anywhere else or with anyone else”
