“Alice has a nice oasis in Joshua Tree for my two dogs. They’ve never traveled away from home so her care was wonderful and comforting. Her two dogs made friends and welcomed my two boys with play and fun. I would ask Alice to care for my boys the next time I am in Joshua Tree!”
“Lacey and family were just great! This the first time in almost three years we’ve been away from our dog and she made it a smooth and positive experience for Moose and for us. Lacey is quick to respond, proactively sends great pics and updates, and rolls with changes in plans with finesse. Plus our chonk seems to have lost a few pounds from playing with the other dogs and came home tired and happy. Thank you, Lacey & fam!”
“Very happy with Alexandra, nothing was too much trouble, we picked up Roxy and it was clear she had had a good time. Everything was perfect, Roxy did not want to leave when we collected her!”
“We miss Ashley! She took great care of our dogs whenever we needed to leave town. She truly spoiled them and treated them as her own. They also enjoyed playing with her dogs and running around her backyard. Highly recommend if you’re in the 29/JT area or even vacationing out there.”
“Mesa LOVED her stay with Ann and Buddy. They went on a walks and to the dog park, and they played in the yard. Ann has a great space—indoor and out—for dogs, and she was super communicative, making the whole process easy. Will book again! Thanks, Ann!”
“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.”
“Grey was wonderful with Alfie. From the start she was super friendly and easy to communicate with, and she kept us updated with photos, which really put us at ease. Alfie looked so comfortable and happy with her. She seems like a genuinely kind person who loves animals, and we felt really lucky to have found her. We’d absolutely recommend Grey to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy looking after their fur babies : )”
“I'm so happy that I found Louella! My baby Theo was in such good, caring hands this weekend. I appreciated the updates from her and I loved how clean and spacious the home(including backyard) was :)”
“Rejoice is awesome! She has watched our pup twice now and I can’t speak highly enough about her. She takes great care and is very communicative. She has been flexible and accommodating. We will definitely look to Rejoice the next time we need a sitter. Thank you Rejoice!”
“Ary watched my two dogs Ringo and Zero for the second time. She was super easy to work with, responsible and friendly. Highly recommended to anyone looking for someone reliable.”
“Great dog sitter. Very patient and friendly with our super skittish dog. She took her on a hikes and helped socialize her a bit more for a few days. Definitely will come back next visit.”
“Taurawa was INCREDIBLE! I cannot believe I found such a perfect caretaker for my dogs through rover. Her property is absolutely gorgeous and my dogs had the best time staying there. She’s so caring, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. I can’t wait to take my dogs to stay with her the next time I’m in Joshua tree.”
“Larry took great care of our pet. This is my first time using a sitter instead of boarding and she was much happier and received his undivided attention. Lots of photos and great communication.”
“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!!”
“Salina was amazing! I needed a sitter last minute and she was totally accommodating. I could tell my pups were well loved and she sent over tons of photos. I would definitely recommend if you’re looking for someone in the area!”
“Samantha was very responsive, sent pictures and a video of my dog, and was very kind and generous when I was late for dropping off and picking up my dog. The home and backyard was a great environment for my siberian husky and she was great to work with. I would absolutely recommend her help to anyone needing a dog sitter if you're in the area.”

“Carol was such a great communicator and sent us photos every day. She treated our shy cat with lots of respect and gave the outgoing one a ton of play time and attention. She was prompt every day and cleaned up the treat dishes and the litter boxes despite how messy my cats are. Absolutely will be booking Carol in the future to take care of my fur babies!”
“Thanks Beverly! She was able to accommodate us at the last minute, and even made time to come for a getting acquainted visit. I will definitely be calling her again whenever Neil needs a visitor”

“Love Mary! She came and hung out with our kittens. Cleaned the litter, and even brought in a package that had been delivered while we were away. We will definitely be re booking. Thank you Mary!”
“Chantelle took lovely care of our beloved kitty who needed extra kindness having recently been neutered. We spoil our kitty so wanted someone to stay overnights as well and Chantelle did and sent lots of cute pics of our kitty throughout our trip away. Would highly recommend her. She knows lots about cats and how to take great care of them which was comforting while we were away. Will definitely ask her to kitty sit again 🐈⬛ 🥰”

“Elizabeth is amazing! Very communicative about what our cats are doing when we're away. She goes above and beyond to take care of them. I will absolutely call her again next time!”
“Such an amazing stay! It was a last minute and LONG trip, Binx was very well taken care of and Rejoice was so nice and comforting throughout our stay. Will definitely be using her services again.”
About: Both of us grew up with pets in our homes; some of our fondest memories include time spent with our animals. Tristan has had dogs ranging from a little Chihuahua to a Great Dane, while Adeline had a series of high-energy mixes, as well as a couple mellow cats. We watched many of our friends' animals prior to adopting our pup George about a year ago, and have loved creating a forever home for him! We both are self-employed, and frequently work from home throughout the week. This flexibility allows us to be attentive with breaks and walks, and ensures that our pup and yours won't be left alone for too long each day. We have a fenced-in yard and live in a very walkable area near a park. We love to take walks and play with our dog, and will treat yours with the same amount of attention and care!
About: Hello! I would love to welcome your pet into my home. I live in a very safe neighborhood right next to 49 Palms Oasis in 29. I have a very large yard with lots of open space to run and play. The fence is 6ft tall, so hard to jump over. I have a 7 year old beagle lab mix, male, fixed, Winston. Winston LOVES to play but also recognizes when someone does not. I work locally and my day is flexible which allows for many potty breaks and time outside. My family lives local so I rarely go out of town. I am more than happy to meet with you and your pet ahead of time as well. Hello! I would love to welcome your pet into my home. I live in a very safe neighborhood right next to 49 Palms Oasis in 29.

“Byanka did a great job. Communicated superbly. Very professional. Upon return… my cat was content and fully at ease. No sign of stress or anxiety, at all. Just happy… and ready to play & cuddle! Highly recommend Byanka to anyone in need of dependable pet sitting. Rest assured… she’s got it covered!”
“Sarah was amazing!! Sarah went above and beyond for my pup. She was very helpful, patient, and helped reinforce training. She’s very knowledgeable about dogs and gave excellent advice. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Diana looked after our kitties when we went out of town. She made sure they had food and water, cleaned their litter boxes, loved on them, and helped take care of the house when our mini ac unit was leaking. She did more than was required of a pet sitter ❤️”
“Katie did a couple of drop ins for my dog and 2 cats. They were all very comfortable with her and she gave them tons of attention! We would definitely recommend her to others and will use her for future trips!”
“Juliann was great! She kept my house in perfect shape and took such thoughtful care of my little rascal of a cat as well as allthe outdoor critters I feed. I came home to a happy pet and everything just as I left it. I felt totally at ease knowing she was here. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi I’m Serena! I’m currently in my master’s program at CSULB! I work hard and give so much love to every single one of my client’s fur babies depending on all their needs. I've grown up with 5+ dogs in my lifetime and taken care of dogs and cats of every kind and size since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their pets while they were on vacation to walk, feed, and administering their medication (both orally and injections) to their pets. I've taken animal CPR and have lots of experience with senior care with three senior dogs. I’m current attending college at CSULB but I am available in the mornings and evenings for drop in visits. For overnight or extended stays I am available Sunday-Saturday. I will care for them in your home and follow the instructions given to feed and drop in visits. If they are allowed outside, I will go outside with them and keep an eye on them both day and night. I will never let them outside on their own due to safety reasons. If discussed and allowed to housesit, I will keep your pets company for hours doing my quiet hobbies (Reading, drawing, etc.) since my pets tend to dislike being alone in the house for long periods of time.

“Thnks again Alex for taking such great care of my lil Hershey girl. She appeared to be very happy when I picked her up. Looking forward to another meet soon. BTW, I did receive her treats🐶🥰”
“We’re so glad we found Juliann to take care of our pup during a few long days in the park. Her place was super clean, she’s communicative and friendly, and our girl warmed up to her right away. Thanks Juliann!”
“Lacey took care of our dog during our visit to Joshua Tree National Park. We are so pleased with the care she provided. Her place is well set up for dogs. They have a play yard where the dogs can run around and play. Lacey is very attentive and gets to know the dogs. Our dog loves to play with others but managed to jump a fence out of the yard. Lacey diligently coached him back into the yard. She communicated with us about this incident and let us know what she would do to prevent it from happening again. Over the three days he was with her, he grew more comfortable, played out in the yard with other dogs without any other incidents, and just seemed at home at her place. We recommend Lacey to others who need care for their dogs when in the Yucca Valley area.”
About: My family has had dogs ever since I was a baby. I didn’t own my own dog until I met Buddy and we have since then been inseparable. We go to the dog park every single day to play with all the other loving dogs. I’m currently working from home and am very flexible. Can take your pets for a walk and play with them outside or inside. They will be loved. I am proactive and will encourage the pups to run around outside, play fetch, and wrestle each other. Buddy would love more friends to play with.
“Ashley was so great with my 7 year old border collie, who loves fetch and cuddling, both of which she was given plenty of ❣️ She watched my dog two days in a row, while I was in joshua tree and she was so lovely! Thank you, Ashley, and thanks for taking such great care of aubi and for all the stellar recs around town!”
“I dropped my crazy 8 month old puppy off with Grey for the day while we explored non-friendly parts of Joshua Tree NP. It was so nice to let my puppy off leash and let her play with Billow! And I had Grey drop my pup off which was super helpful. I forgot to pack dinner for my pup and Grey fed her and sent her with extra food. You can tell that she really cares about the wellbeing of the dogs she cares for <3 Highly recommend! Your dog is in good hands with Grey and her dog crew! Highly recommend”
About: Hello, my name is Seana, my experience comes from having grown up with pets of many kinds, both my own and others. I can feed, bathe, clean up after, walk and play with your dog.

To contact me I would appreciate a phone call to arrange a meet up. Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you and your pet soon.

“Salina and her family were amazing. They were available pretty last minute for us and we’re super grateful for that. They were so easygoing and friendly throughout the whole process and they took great care of our big energetic boy. They’re local for us and are going to be our go to when we’re looking for a sitter or overnight care in the future.”
“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.”
“Sitter was great! My dog really liked her and she sent update photos on how she was doing throughout the day. Over all we are very pleased with her care and attention to Nahla. Thank you so much!”
“Luz was very accommodating and very good with communication. Her property was very lovely and my dog. Bodie was very happy. I could tell with a big smile on his face! The pictures that she sent me during his stay were very thoughtful.”

About: I have helped professionals in the veterinary field groom and train animals. I have also been pet sitting for family and have had many pets throughout my life! I am currently a part-time student at Copper Mountain College, and work weekends at Hi-Desert Tails. I have a bit of free time as I have online classes! I will have to schedule pet care around my work, but I’m very flexible outside of that! I will be able to play with and take care of any dogs or cats, no matter the size or energy level! I can also easily crate if needed. Please let me know if there are cameras inside the home, and give written instructions so I don’t forget any details!
About: I have taken care of both domestic and exotic animals all my life. I have lived in mostly farm lands. I have experience with every situation you can think of from timid, hyper, aggressive, and disabled. I work from home so my schedule is extremely open! Whether you have an easy to handle pet or one that is a little more difficult. I have the experience and patience for it all. Currently, I work from home. I also clean houses. My schedule is never really set in stone so I’m very flexible . I am also able to do same day sometimes depending on what I have going on that day! I will not just be checking in on your pet ! If I come in and happen to see your pet had an accident. I will let you know and I will also clean it up for you! I will follow every request that you have whether you have a fenced in yard or you prefer the dog to be walked with the leash! As far as cats, I am very aware that they do like to run out so I always make sure to squeeze in and out of the door very carefully to make sure none of your pets escape! I take a detailed note of how you like things being done and the time as well to not change your pets schedule too much from the norm. I will take picture documentation if needed and make sure they get fed the correct amount and the way they like it as we know some pets like their food prepped a certain way! This is your baby. I will make sure that they feel loved and safe with me.
About: My family has had dogs ever since I was a baby. I didn’t own my own dog until I met Buddy and we have since then been inseparable. We go to the dog park every single day to play with all the other loving dogs. I’m currently working from home and am very flexible. Can take your pets for a walk and play with them outside or inside. They will be loved. I am proactive and will encourage the pups to run around outside, play fetch, and wrestle each other. Buddy would love more friends to play with.
About: I have a farm and a lifelong love for all animals! Currently, I care for my three furry friends and livestock, ensuring they receive the best care possible. My hands on experience with a variety of animals and a trusted reputation among friends and family set me apart. I specialize in drop ins, walking, and occasional overnight pet care, providing attentive and personalized care for your pets. Whether it's a quick visit or a refreshing walk, your pets will be in good hands. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine! As of right now, I am free most days during the daytime or evening, unless stated. At a client’s house, I prioritize creating a comfortable environment for their pets by following their routine and preferences. I ensure they have plenty of exercise, companionship, and playtime, while also respecting the home’s guidelines. Communication is key, so I’ll provide regular updates and stay attentive to their pets' needs!
About: There’s just nothing like the happiness a dog (or cat) brings to our lives! They’re always there for us, and they ask so little of us in return. Our pets have an amazing, giving spirit, and it’s definitely their selflessness that inspired me to become a pet sitter! I believe that animals need just as much love as we do, so I want to put a smile on as many faces as I possibly can. Not to mention, I love that I can give back to my community at the same time by providing owners with peace of mind while they’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pet! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pet and care expectations. No one knows your pet better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new clients! I like to get down on their level to show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it can be to be away from your best friend, so I’m here to make that time as easy as possible! When your pet is in my care, I’ll always send tons of updates along so you can be in the loop on everything we’ve done during the day. I’m happy to send detailed information on anything that you need to know just how they’re doing—from behaviors to exercise times to meal prep. Likewise, those updates will always have accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pet and I are having together! I’m also very easy to get in touch with, so I’ll always be on call in case you have any questions or concerns. I’m available for drop ins, walks and short overnights. I am finishing my Masters degree in Education with an emphasis in social & emotional learning currently and tend to be pretty flexible overall, if you have a question send a message! While booking overnights at least a week in advance emergency or last minute drop-ins or walks can typically be accommodated. I am currently waiting to get approval for Base access 🤞 application is pending but feel free to check in! I try to respond as quickly as possible. I do drop in visits to your home and follow all instructions left. Times and expectations are agreed upon before arrival. I can let pets outside to use the restroom, feed them, give medication etc just ask! I also had a diabetic cat so I can perform injections if needed.
“I would definitely recommend Renée as a dog walker! She takes my pup on nice long walks and has been a huge help as I adjust to my new work schedule. Kayenta took to her right away. She’s flexible, reliable, and friendly. Super pleasant/easy experience working with her and I am already a repeat client. Thanks Renée!”
About: Hey there! I'd love the opportunity to care for your pets while you're away or take them out when you're too busy.

I can provide walking, pet-sitting in your home, and active play for any size dog. I'm highly responsible, attentive, and punctual, and sensitive to pets with special needs or quirks. I love getting to know individual animals and catering to their personalities and needs. Medication, special needs, senior pets ok!
“Reliable and available whenever our usual dog Walker isn’t available. Very friendly and accommodating. Have booked several times and will continue to book in the future :)”
“Elizabeth was awesome! She visited to walk and feed our 3 dogs and everything went smoothly. Each dog has their own quirks and Elizabeth took her time to make each dog feel comfortable. She left thorough notes in the app and was very communicative leading up to the visits. Would definitely recommend!”

“Milo thoroughly enjoyed his walks with Francis. After the 1st couple of meetings Milo began anticipating his time with him. Waited by the door and wagged his tail. Francis completely lived up to his highly recommended reputation.”
“We are obsessed with Katie and so are our pups! One of our dogs has barked at every single person who has ever stepped foot in our house, everyone except Katie! And we tend to have a ton of guests, our minds were blown. We’ve met with Katie twice now, and each time she has been very intuitive, attentive, knowledgeable and”
“Layla was amazing with our girl!! She sent me updates including photos and videos during their walk together and even went out of her way the night prior to meet Nova despite me booking last minute! So happy we found Layla, we already booked her again!”
About: I have had larger dogs my entire life and have pet sat for family for about 4 years. I love animals and am willing to work with dogs who may need extra help! I am currently a full time student at SUU and a part time employee. I’m willing to work with your schedule as long as your willing to work with mine! I respect the clients home, boundaries, and rules with their pets. Everybody has their own beliefs about how to care for their pet and I believe as a sitter my biggest responsibility after the pets safety is to respect those beliefs.
About: As a mom and dog owner myself, I am sensitive to the needs and feelings of animals as they are just like kids. I have taken care of animals my entire life, from small dogs, big dogs, territorial dogs, horses, cats, and a bunch of other creatures. We even have our own animal CBD line on the market for dogs in pain or with ptsd. I’m active, love to walk, believe in positive reinforcement. We have a perfect yard for animals to safely play and a large home with a loving family to make your loved one feel safe when they are missing their people. My dog friends end up calling me Auntie Sal as we take them in as family. I’m currently flexible and have the ability for same day walks, last minute trips and pop ins. I can work with your schedule most days. My husband is my tag team back as well. I have two fences in yards one for running and the other for safe play. I never leave them unattended. We are happy to follow your lead on crate training if desired. We provide toys and treats if you approve. We love park walks and have 2.5 acres to explore. We have the ability to keep dogs separate from ours if needed.
About: I have always had dogs in my home, up until a few months ago. I have worked at an animal shelter and have experience with shelter animals (dogs and cats) with walking, medicating, cleaning, grooming and socializing difficult animals. I have cared for older animals and younger animals and know what things to watch out for to ensure the safety of the animal is met. I am also currently volunteering at the Joshua Tree No Kill Shelter. I am completely available 7 days a week! The only priorities I have are my own dog so overnight stays are unlikely for me, but I am open to discussing. I am very practiced in animal care so if you hire me, I can bring some comfort to you so you can feel your pets will be looked after and cared for properly and lovingly.
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.

“Lacey and family were just great! This the first time in almost three years we’ve been away from our dog and she made it a smooth and positive experience for Moose and for us. Lacey is quick to respond, proactively sends great pics and updates, and rolls with changes in plans with finesse. Plus our chonk seems to have lost a few pounds from playing with the other dogs and came home tired and happy. Thank you, Lacey & fam!”
“Nina was an absolute best dog sitter. Toby and her hit it off from the meet and greet and through out the time that Toby stayed with her. She gave me great feedback on Toby. I would recommend Nina in a heartbeat. Toby got to play with other dogs and Nina sent great pictures to me.”
“Very happy with Alexandra, nothing was too much trouble, we picked up Roxy and it was clear she had had a good time. Everything was perfect, Roxy did not want to leave when we collected her!”
“Monica was an absolute godsend. Not only was she able to sit Kugel for our wedding weekend, but she made herself available to drive him to our wedding venue for some photos on Saturday. She also sent us tons of photos and updates throughout the weekend which helped keep our minds at ease during such a hectic time. We’ll definitely book with Monica again when we’re up in the high desert.”
“We miss Ashley! She took great care of our dogs whenever we needed to leave town. She truly spoiled them and treated them as her own. They also enjoyed playing with her dogs and running around her backyard. Highly recommend if you’re in the 29/JT area or even vacationing out there.”
“Mesa LOVED her stay with Ann and Buddy. They went on a walks and to the dog park, and they played in the yard. Ann has a great space—indoor and out—for dogs, and she was super communicative, making the whole process easy. Will book again! Thanks, Ann!”
“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.”
“Grey was wonderful with Alfie. From the start she was super friendly and easy to communicate with, and she kept us updated with photos, which really put us at ease. Alfie looked so comfortable and happy with her. She seems like a genuinely kind person who loves animals, and we felt really lucky to have found her. We’d absolutely recommend Grey to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy looking after their fur babies : )”
“Ary watched my two dogs Ringo and Zero for the second time. She was super easy to work with, responsible and friendly. Highly recommended to anyone looking for someone reliable.”
“Great dog sitter. Very patient and friendly with our super skittish dog. She took her on a hikes and helped socialize her a bit more for a few days. Definitely will come back next visit.”
“Taurawa was INCREDIBLE! I cannot believe I found such a perfect caretaker for my dogs through rover. Her property is absolutely gorgeous and my dogs had the best time staying there. She’s so caring, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. I can’t wait to take my dogs to stay with her the next time I’m in Joshua tree.”
“Larry took great care of our pet. This is my first time using a sitter instead of boarding and she was much happier and received his undivided attention. Lots of photos and great communication.”
“This was our dog’s second stay with Luz. It was clear they loved their 6 day stay. Bee Bee add River looked great when we picked them up…happy and comfortable. Not sure they were ready to go! Luz’s well kept home and safe, spacious property offer a wonderful stay for dogs! She is a kind and warm pet sitter. I highly recommend Luz!”
“Dropped my dog off for the week for a Disney trip I was last minute but they were able to accommodate him still they were great with him and made sure he had plenty of time to play and hangout with the other dogs and kids and made sure to send pictures and keep me updated on the trip. I 1000% recommend them for any trips as they truly know how to take care of your pet like it’s there own.”
“Salina was amazing! I needed a sitter last minute and she was totally accommodating. I could tell my pups were well loved and she sent over tons of photos. I would definitely recommend if you’re looking for someone in the area!”
“Samantha was very responsive, sent pictures and a video of my dog, and was very kind and generous when I was late for dropping off and picking up my dog. The home and backyard was a great environment for my siberian husky and she was great to work with. I would absolutely recommend her help to anyone needing a dog sitter if you're in the area.”
