“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!”
“Louella is an absolute dream of a dog sitter. She is so kind, sweet, gentle and friendly. She’s also responsible and has excellent communication skills. Her house and yard are beautiful and dog friendly. She took pictures of Bek and gave me updates (he always looked super happy and relaxed) which was great. I also felt like I could relax and be completely present on my vacation, which is a rare feeling when you have someone else looking after your pup. Can’t speak highly enough!”
“I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Alice! From the moment I dropped off Zoe, I knew she was in great hands. Alice went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and happy throughout the stay. The communication was excellent—Alice sent regular updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Not only did Alice provide a safe and clean environment, but she also took the time to give Zoe plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Zoe came home relaxed, happy, and well taken care of—it’s clear that Alice genuinely loves animals and knows how to care for them. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog boarder, I highly recommend Alice. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Felice is the best pet sitter. That's why as you can see I've used her multiple times. She always goes above and beyond to care for my dog. My dog loves being with her. Highly recommend her.”
“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 : )”
“Henry loves staying with a Hugh and Mary. He’s more active at their place than ours. They are always sending cute pictures of him being active. Great place for him. Wish we’re staying longer to use for all our time we are running errands.”
“Nina was so wonderful with our shy dog! She was very sensitive with our sensitive girl, and that made all the difference. She shared pictures and videos of how she was doing. She worked to help socialize her and to monitor her progress. I can’t recommend Nina highly enough!”
“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!!”
“Samantha was so lovely and responsive, with much dog expertise! She made sure Oswald felt right at home and I would highly recommend her for anyone needing to board their dog! Thanks Samantha!”
“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!”
“Judith was amazing. She was very good at communicating and sent me lots of pictures of my dog (even though my dog is camera shy). She was really flexible and worked with me when my schedule changed a bit. I will be picking to send Vexy to her house next time we need a Rover.”
“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.”
“Shawna took great care of our dog Lady. Lady is a recent rescue and she can be fearful and sensitive in new settings. Shawna’s calm, caring energy was a perfect match, and she graciously accommodated us when our plans changed at the last minute. We feel very fortunate to have found her.”
“Alice did an excellent job with our dogs. It was our second time using her. We were gone for ten days for our wedding and felt very comfortable knowing they were in her hands. When our flight was delayed last night she was kind enough to drop them home at no charge so that our babies would be there on arrival. We will definitely use her again!”
“Nuvea was amazing! She’s super nice and took such good care of my two dogs while I was away. They looked so happy and relaxed when I picked them up. She really treated them like her own, and that means so much to me. I’ll definitely be bringing them back next time — highly recommend her! 🐶💖”
“Sierra was super great and communicative throughout the entire interaction, from prior to dropping our dog off at her house and during our dogs stay. She sent messages and updates throught and was very quick to respond. Thank you Sierra for caring for our doggy so well. We appreciate you so much knowing our dog was in good and caring hands.”
“Gloria, Was wonderful with our two Cockers for 7 days. She updated us twice a day with pictures and also sent message when she need to adjust food or clean our dogs ears. We have other booking with Gloria. We both can't wait to see her and her Husband again. Tamera & Roy Mlakar ( Daisy and Char)”
“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!”
“I was so glad that Maggie was available to take care of my doggy again on my recent visit to Palm Desert. I think Chalie remembered what a nice time he had the last time he stayed there because he wagged his tail and did not even look back as Maggie walked him to her home. Indeed, he got lots of love and attention from Maggie’s son and seemed very happy on all the pictures she sent. I hope to use her services again next time I am in Palm Desert. I highly recommend her.”

“Emily is a super sitter! She’s reliable, quick to respond, and has a very welcoming and loving vibe. I know my cat was in good company, and hope emily will be back to hang with my pets again!”
“We accidentally missed the window to submit a review last time, so this is for two bookings worth! Jenny was super communicative and messaged us to let us know how our kitties were doing after each visit. It was so nice hearing from her every day and helped put our mind at ease so we could enjoy our vacation. Would book Jenny again without hesitation!”
“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”
“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 ❤️”
“Greg was awesome with my cat. Usually my cat is not fond with people but she eventually warmed up and was good. Greg seemed to handle it very well too and did everything asked. I will definitely be using Greg again! Thank you:)”
“Our cats are normally shy with strangers but they took to Caroline quickly. It's was obvious that they felt at ease with her. Caroline is conscientious, punctual and a delight to work with. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Liz is the best, and our kitty is always in good hands! She always goes beyond the call of duty to ensure our kitty and home are in good hands! Can't recommend her enough.”
“Larissa was wonderful! My cat warmed up to her right away and they clearly had a good time while I was gone :) she was responsive, helpful, and went out of her way to make sure my cat was cared for. Highly recommend her.”
“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!”
“James did great with our cat Prescott over the Thanksgiving holiday. He stopped by to meet her first and was very friendly and professional. Our cat came up to him for some love each time and he was happy to give it, so we knew she was going to be in good hands. While we were out, he always kept us updated with a few sentences about what he did as well as several photos. We would rebook James again in a heartbeat.”
“Shawna is a fantastic sitter. She took excellent care of my cat Pies. Pies has IBS and Shawna administered her medicine everyday, as well as all the usual things (food, water, litter etc.). She also gave me detailed updates on how she was doing daily, which I really appreciated! I've had other sitters in the past, but by far Shawna is the best. I'll definitely be hiring her again to watch Pies if I'm out of town. Thanks again Shawna for going above and beyond =)”
“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!”
“Chantelle was a lifesaver for watching our kitties while we traveled! We took a 6-day trip and she did 1-hour daily drop-ins. We truly appreciated all the pictures and updates she sent letting us know how they were doing. Our girls warmed up to her quickly and she gave them a lot of attention and care! We will use her again and highly recommend her!”
“BReN saved me when I had to leave home last minute due to a family emergency and I needed someone to check on my baby girl Xochitl while I was away. I received several photos of kitty being very social and affectionate upon BReN’s arrival. She also made sure to leave extra food and water since the power had gone out in other parts of town due to high winds. I’m so grateful to have someone who cares so much about animals who can care for Xochitl.”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 13. I’ve volunteered at no kill shelters and kennels for 5 years. I currently have two fur babies now (both rescues) and my mother always had about 8 in her home. I’ve taken care of dogs from tea cup to Great Danes. I also have cared for dogs with diabetes, who were blind, and have cerebral palsy. I work full time (Mon -Fri) in the lower dessert, live in JT. I’m home around 4/4:30pm each day. Of course your baby will be the first one that I see once I’m off of work and before I go into work. As a dedicated pet caregiver, I prioritize each animal's well-being and comfort while following your specific instructions. I ensure they receive regular feeding, fresh water, and ample exercise through walks or playtime. I’m attentive to their unique needs, whether it’s administering medication, maintaining a routine, or simply providing companionship. I also keep their environment clean and safe, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Your pets are not just animals; they’re family, and I’ll treat them with the love and care they deserve!
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 15 year old fixed female lab mix, Bella. She gets along with other dogs but mostly keeps to herself and isn’t interested in playing. I also have a 7 year old beagle lab mix, male, also 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.

About: I had a wonderful Husky growing up, He was always bursting with energy and personality, eager to run, explore, and snuggle up next to me whenever the day ended. Having him around taught me responsibility, patience, and just how strong the bond between a person and a dog can be. After high school, I adopted a Rottweiler of my own. Raising him from a young age helped me understand training, structure, and daily care better. Soon after, my mom needed some help with her cat, so I welcomed him into my home. For a while, I had both a dog and a cat living together—learning to balance their different personalities, needs, and routines. Later, when my husband and I moved into our own place, we added another furry family member—a sweet Corgi who joined us about two years later. Each pet has brought something special into my life and has helped me grow as a caregiver. I’ve gained hands-on experience with both dogs and cats—from energetic working breeds to loyal guardians and independent, affectionate cats. Caring for them isn’t just about feeding and walks—it’s about building trust, comfort, and a little friendship along the way. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine since I work part-time with very flexible hours. I’m able to plan my schedule around visits, walks, and check-ins, whether they’re early mornings, midday, or evenings. Because I manage my own time, I can give pets consistent attention, unrushed care, and plenty of love throughout the week. I care for pets in my home and yours with the same level of love, patience, and attention I give my own. In my home, I create a calm, safe, and cozy environment where they can relax, play, and feel like part of the family. I adhere strictly to their regular routines—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime habits—to ensure their security and comfort. In your home, I respect their space and maintain their familiar routine to minimize stress. I move at their pace, especially with shy or anxious pets, building trust through gentle interactions, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Whether it’s energetic playtime or quiet cuddles, I prioritize making each pet feel safe, understood, and truly cared for.
“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!”

“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🐶🥰”
“The dogs came home tired and happy! She also took precaution to separate our smaller dogs from the bigger ones at the start till they were more comfortable which I really appreciated :)”
“Felice really goes all out for my dog who is hyper. She cares for her and walks her and does everything to make it a great experience for me and my dog. Highly recommend her.”
“Johna made our trip to Joshua Tree so much fun!! It was awesome to be able to go hiking while knowing our two dogs were well taken care of. She is such a kind and caring person, and showed our dogs so much love. She figured out exactly what they liked, and ended up giving our puppy her favorite toy at the end of our trip. I can’t recommend her enough!!!”
“Hugh and Mary were the sweetest dogsitters a dog owner could ask for. They played with my dogs all day long and made sure they got the love and attention they deserve. They updated me throughout the day with pictues, making sure I was always knowing what’s going on. I feel more than confident leaving my dogs with them next time I come to Big Bear. Thank you guys!”
“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”
“We had a very nice experience with Lacey. She took care of our 1 year old dog for 2 days. Our dog seemed to have had a great time and was happy to go there the second day. Lacey also shared lot of pictures of him during his stay.”
“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.”
About: I provide calm, attentive care for dogs and cats in a home where I only take pets from one household at a time. Your pets stay together and are never mixed with unfamiliar animals, creating a low-stress, comfortable environment. I work from home full-time, so your pet gets consistent attention throughout the day, along with regular walks, playtime, and a structured routine. With over 10 years of experience, I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and administering medication. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, relaxed, and cared for like they’re at home. While I don’t have a private yard, I’m close to dog-friendly outdoor areas and take dogs out regularly for walks and fresh air. • One household at a time (no mixing with other pets) • Full-time supervision (I work from home) • Calm, clean home environment • Frequent photo updates so you always know how they’re doing Feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m happy to set up a quick meet & greet to make sure it’s the right fit for you and your pet 😊 I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I am available to give your pet all the love, attention and exercise they need throughout the day! I have a spacious, open plan 2 bedroom apartment and my complex has a dog park. It is also located in a very walkable neighborhood. When looking after them in your home I will be sure to follow any routines you usually would.
“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.”
“We are happy to find Geraldine. She has a dog friendly home with secure outdoor space. Bliss was worn out by lots of running and playing with little Reese. We will be back!”
“Yaz was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond. I was extremely nervous leaving the dog with a sitter, but Yaz put me at ease the moment we met. She kept me updated on my puppy the entire time he was with her and provided multiple pictures of him. I highly recommend Yaz and I know I will use her again in the future for doggy sitting. Thank you so much Yaz!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities for over 6 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets while they’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and love making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also have experience with energetic dogs and keeping pets on their regular routines. I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority in my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care depending on your pet’s needs. I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and care while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any routines your pet is used to. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free in their own environment while keeping owners updated with messages and photos.
“It was a pleasure meeting with Carl, He got good care of my pup and have a lovely house. I will ask Carl for help again when I’m back here for mineral spirits water. Thank you Carl!”
“Janeece is amazing. She took great care of Pringle and kept me updated with regular pictures, which I appreciated. It was clear how much she genuinely cared, making sure Pringle was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. Knowing Pringle was in such great hands gave me so much peace of mind. I highly recommend Janeece to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and attentive pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Finn and Charley are lucky to have found a safe and loving “home away from home” with Lauren. She immediately made us feel welcomed and taken care of. Lauren is communicative / responsive and really flexible. So grateful!”
“Megan was a lifesaver for our weekend getaway! We were staying at a pet friendly resort but wanted a day where we didn’t have to worry about leaving Dot alone for too long, or bringing her out with us during the hottest time of the year. Even though it was just a single daycare session, Megan provided regular updates and kept our girl happy with plenty of playtime, potty and water breaks. Dot made friends with Megan’s dogs and another Rover stay, she came back to us happy and tired. Would definitely choose Megan again for future trips to the desert!”
“Another great experience with Alan and Joe. It's hard for me to find good pet care as I have a very energetic Belgian Malinois who requires and demands constant attention and activities. Alan and Joe are wonderful with her and it's very comforting knowing she is in good hands. As soon as we get to their gate, she knows where she is going and gets very happy and excited, which makes it easier on me to leave her.”

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 live with my own little crew of three cats and one dog and have fostered and cared for other animals over the years. I'm located in Yucca Valley on the mesa and have experience working and volunteering with cat and dog rescue groups, including handling large breeds and recently rescued dogs. 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!
“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”

“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!”
About: I am a Spanish speaker and communicate in English using a translator app to ensure clear and accurate communication. I genuinely love caring for pets, enjoy spending time playing and relaxing with them, and carefully follow all written instructions to keep pets safe, comfortable, and happy. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. For now, I am dedicating my time exclusively to Rover, so I’m available throughout the week except on Sundays. When I provide overnight care, it is not a full 24-hour stay; my hours are from 8 AM to 8 PM. I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, comfort, and consistency during the time they are with me. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always focus on safety, comfort, and consistency. I play with them indoors and in the yard if there is one available. I make sure they receive their food on schedule, and if they need any medication, I administer it exactly according to the owner’s instructions. I also take them for walks around the neighborhood and keep them engaged with the games or activities they already know and enjoy. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, entertained, and well cared for at all times.
About: As a vegan and former PETA staffer, I love and respect all animals. I also have veterinary technician, veterinary clinic, and animal shelter experience. I've rescued and cared for dogs (both large and small), cats, birds, rodents, reptiles, fish, horses and rabbits. I am completely dedicated to the safety, equality, and well-being of all animals. I work part-time as a photographer so have ample time to take care of your animal friends. And can, of course, provide you with some great photos to put your mind at ease while you're away from your fur babies! I am very active and love a good walk or hike. While I strive to always provide a fun, attention-filled experience, safety is my primary concern, so you can rest assured your animal friends will be in good hands for those times you can't be with them.
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 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.

“Shawna took great care of our girl! She helped us out with a huge last minute request, and we're so grateful we found her. Thank you for making our last minute trip that much easier, Shawna!”
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 in school finishing my masters degree but tend to be pretty flexible overall, if you have a question send a message! 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.

“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!”
“Felice is the best pet sitter. That's why as you can see I've used her multiple times. She always goes above and beyond to care for my dog. My dog loves being with her. Highly recommend her.”
“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 : )”
“Henry loves staying with a Hugh and Mary. He’s more active at their place than ours. They are always sending cute pictures of him being active. Great place for him. Wish we’re staying longer to use for all our time we are running errands.”
“Nina was so wonderful with our shy dog! She was very sensitive with our sensitive girl, and that made all the difference. She shared pictures and videos of how she was doing. She worked to help socialize her and to monitor her progress. I can’t recommend Nina highly enough!”
“Samantha was so lovely and responsive, with much dog expertise! She made sure Oswald felt right at home and I would highly recommend her for anyone needing to board their dog! Thanks Samantha!”
“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!”
“Judith was amazing. She was very good at communicating and sent me lots of pictures of my dog (even though my dog is camera shy). She was really flexible and worked with me when my schedule changed a bit. I will be picking to send Vexy to her house next time we need a Rover.”
“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.”
“Shawna took great care of our dog Lady. Lady is a recent rescue and she can be fearful and sensitive in new settings. Shawna’s calm, caring energy was a perfect match, and she graciously accommodated us when our plans changed at the last minute. We feel very fortunate to have found her.”
“Alice did an excellent job with our dogs. It was our second time using her. We were gone for ten days for our wedding and felt very comfortable knowing they were in her hands. When our flight was delayed last night she was kind enough to drop them home at no charge so that our babies would be there on arrival. We will definitely use her again!”
“Nuvea was amazing! She’s super nice and took such good care of my two dogs while I was away. They looked so happy and relaxed when I picked them up. She really treated them like her own, and that means so much to me. I’ll definitely be bringing them back next time — highly recommend her! 🐶💖”
“Sierra was super great and communicative throughout the entire interaction, from prior to dropping our dog off at her house and during our dogs stay. She sent messages and updates throught and was very quick to respond. Thank you Sierra for caring for our doggy so well. We appreciate you so much knowing our dog was in good and caring hands.”
“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!”
“I was so glad that Maggie was available to take care of my doggy again on my recent visit to Palm Desert. I think Chalie remembered what a nice time he had the last time he stayed there because he wagged his tail and did not even look back as Maggie walked him to her home. Indeed, he got lots of love and attention from Maggie’s son and seemed very happy on all the pictures she sent. I hope to use her services again next time I am in Palm Desert. I highly recommend her.”
“Jon is the absolute best! If you are lucky enough to have used his services in the past, you already know that! If you are thinking about using his service in the future, I highly, HIGHLY recommend Jon. Aside from the fact that our dog, Aggie, loves him dearly, he has proven himself to be caring, conscientious, and simply wonderful. His walled yard & pup friendly home was enough for us to choose Jon the first time. His amazing personality & care for our Aggie, make us choose him, & only him, over and over again.”
“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.”
“We used Dana for the first time this week for 3 nights. She send photos of our girl out in her yard, and in her crate, and updated us on how she was doing. We will definitely be using her again.”
“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.”
