Hi! I’m Artemis (for fans of Greek mythology, the goddess of wildlife —so it’s my nature to protect pups). I fall in love with every animal I meet (including yours!), and I believe in giving our pets everything they give to us: love, care, loyalty and lots of fun. In addition to taking care of my own pets, I have experience walking dogs and pet sitting — I give a pretty mean belly rub, too.

48The Cap Homme/Ralph Adams Park in Palm Desert, California is just three miles, and less than a 10-minute drive, from Rancho Mirage. Located in the southern part of the city, Adams Park is a 27-acre space with multi-use trails, an off-leash dog area, and a great place for having a picnic. The off-leash area is at the base of the trails, and it is only surrounded by some low wooden bars, so if your dog is a high jumper or an expert escape artist, it may be best to keep them on a leash. Dogs are required to be leashed on the walking trail, and some visitors note it is quite a rigorous hike.
