Doggy Day Care in Yucca Valley

“Poppy had another amazing visit! This time she got to play with other dogs at Lacey’s house. Lacey and her son are so amazing with the dogs - we can’t wait to bring her for many more visits.”

“I cannot say enough great things about Taura! My boys were with her two full days while I visited Joshua Tree and I had ZERO worries leaving them there. Laura was so welcoming and has such great space for dogs to run and play. This was great for them as we were on a cross-country road trip and they spent lots of time in the car. Taura was awesome at sending updates and videos, so I knew they were having fun the whole time. Taura is am amazing and interesting woman, and I think our paths will cross again. Taura- thank you from the bottom of my heart!!”

About: At Dream Ranch the style of Dog/Cat Boarding is designed to provide your pet with a totally “enriched” boarding experience, which I accomplish by giving pets the things they need most: behavioral choices, exercise, socialization, and the absence of stress. Dogs/Cats prefer real homes and outdoor play yards over kennels or warehouses. By their very nature, they require socialization with other dogs/cats and with people, not solitary confinement. I am experienced and I segregate the dogs/cats according to size and temperament, and monitor each pack so that all dogs/cats are in a stress-free environment. I play, run, fetch, nap, cuddle, bark and talk during the day (including our fantastic water play yard), and they sleep slumber-party-style in our home with a bunch of new friends at night. And they are never locked up or left alone…that’s right, there are no cages here. (Unless you tell me otherwise, &/or your pet's daily routine involves crate/kennel training already) Sometimes life doesn’t allow for pet's. Fortunately for you, Dream Ranch always does! When you need a second home, book a stay for your pet(s) at Dream Ranch!! There’s No Place Like Home… And There’s No Place Like Dream Ranch For Your pet's When You’re Away! 24/7 hours a day, 365 days a year!

“A big thanks for another fun day! My husband and I really appreciate Semran’s attention to detail and TLC for Manny. And we wanted to add an extra star for last week’s care!⭐️ Thank you!”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of experience taking care of dogs, cats and horses. I provide lots of quiet snuggle sessions in a home environment with attentive, loving care for each pet's needs. I treat every furry friend like family and offer a calm, safe and reliable environment. Looking forward to meeting your pet and giving them the care they deserve. I mostly work from home with occasional short meetings outside. Your pet will have access to lots of personal attention and company day and night. There are lots of dog beds throughout the house. I have a fenced yard and 3 small friendly dogs and 1 cat to keep your pet company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

“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: Hi, I'm Simone. Thanks for visiting my profile! I'm a photographer currently working on a project and living in Joshua Tree. I adore animals more than anything else. Lucky for me, animals seem to love me back, and I connect easily with most cats and dogs that I meet. My two kitties Bert and Ernesto were the loves of my life and I had 13 loving, goofy years with them. I miss them so much. I'm not ready to have any animals of my own, which is why I would be delighted to spend time with and care for your animal/s. In the last year of his life, one of my cats was sick and he required extensive nursing at home. I gave him daily meds including liquids and pills, and I administered fluids via subcutaneous injections for several months. I believe in maintaining a clean environment for animals so that they feel the highest level of comfort possible in their world. I know that cats need exercise, and I prioritize play if they are interested in engaging. I know how stressful it is to travel and leave animals at home. I am highly reliable and trustworthy, and your furry friends are my number one priority. I also love dogs and have walked many dogs for family and friends, however never having one as a pet, I don't prioritize dog care in my profile. I work independently as a photographer, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to structure my day around caring for animals. Whether it’s a drop-in or staying overnight, I’m able to give your cat my full attention. When caring for cats in a client’s home, I aim to maintain a clean, calm, and safe environment that keeps your cat comfortable and secure. I’m careful with doors, windows, and potential escape routes, and I always check for hiding spots to make sure everyone is accounted for. I respect your home as if it were my own, follow your care instructions closely, and make sure your cat’s routine stays consistent. I’m also happy to provide updates, photos, or notes if that helps you feel more at ease while you’re away.

About: I have over 10 years experience caring for animals of all kinds. I worked as a pet store manager for 4 years and I oversaw cat adoptions and the care of newborn puppies. From horses, dogs & cats all the way to reptiles and arachnids, I’ve got you covered. I work online part-time and have a mostly open schedule to accommodate your critters! At home I care for 9 chickens and a lovely cat. I will do everything to keep your pet happy. Feeding, walks, playtime, or offering a safe and quiet space depending on your pets individual needs.

“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.”

“Nina was fantastic and I highly recommend her. She picked up and dropped off Brutus every day and was flexible with the timing. She did so much amazing training with him, and his anxiety has definitely been helped from it. Most importantly, Brutus came home totally exhausted every day from Nina’s, which means he had a great time and was highly stimulated. Thanks, Nina!”

“2nd time with Hannah and she’s been great! She’s on time, friendly, respectful, and diligent and loving in her care. Best of all, our good boy is crazy about her!”

About: I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs, from puppies to elderly. Great pet friendly home with fully fenced yard. Furniture and beds are a-okay. Experienced with administering meds. I am an artist and at home full time. My own companion recently passed so there are currently no other pets in the home. I have plenty of time to play and snuggle and can’t wait to meet your fur baby! My yard is fully fenced with plenty of room to toss a ball or to just get out the zoomies. There are no off-limits rooms in the home. I have a doggy door but am also happy to take them outside every two hours if they need encouragement. Feeding time is generally 8 and 5. If meds are needed their schedule will be strictly adhered to.

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: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have two dogs of my own that I’ve raised with lots of love and some training since they were tiny puppies. I’ve also dog sat friend’s and family’s pets several times. I really enjoy taking care of animals and feel lots of love & empathy for these four legged friends! :) I work from home and make my own schedule so I have lots of flexibility in terms of availability. I’m happy to come to you in order to care for your pets and/or home. I have two dogs of my own at home who get lots of love, care and attention. I always make sure to bring the same care and love to your pets!

“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: 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!

“Hannah was great. She was very communicative and it was easy to find her place. My puppy had a great time running around with her dogs, he was very tired when he got back in the car after. We spent the day at Lassen Volcanic National Park and then had some driving to do after so it was great that he was tired out for the rest of the drive. Highly recommend Hannah if you’re driving through the area.”

About: I recently moved to south Florida. I’ve used Rover in the past for my own doggies and have now decided to offer my home in service! I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life and at age 16 a wolf puppy came to me and I cared for her until she passed 15 years later. I currently have three doggies Otis my husky, Raphael our little rescue mix and Zoe my blue heeler both friendly with other dogs! I am self employed and at home all day! All the animals have space to be separated if need be! I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Let me know if I can assist you! Blessings! I own my own business offering plant medicine and wellness retreats. So I’m home all day to provide fun and engaging care for your angel. I have 3 kitties and 3 dogs all very socialized. They are friendly, playful and non aggressive. It’s kind of a zoo but we love it!
