About: I’ve had all sorts of pets, (dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, rabbits, etc) since I was a kid and love seeing each of their unique personalities shine. I spent a few years working at a veterinary clinic and have become very comfortable reading and interacting with many types of pets. I work part time and have a flexible schedule during the work day. I’m able to stop by for a check-in, a playdate, or a walk. I take good care of my home and pets and will do the same for you. I also take pictures of before, during and after so you have a good idea of how your place and pets are doing.
“Kimberly was amazing! Just moved to the area and was nervous about finding a new sitter for a cat that recently became a solo cat but Kimberly eased all anxieties. Super communicative, timely, and considerate. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for over 5 years, including seniors, shy rescues, and energetic kittens. I’ve helped foster and rehome multiple cats, and currently care for three of my own. Friends and neighbors often rely on me to feed, clean, and spend quality time with their pets. I’m gentle, attentive, and love learning each animal’s unique personality. Pet care has always been a part of my life, and every interaction with animals feels incredibly healing and meaningful to me. I wish I could welcome even more animals into my life, but since I can’t right now, I treat every pet I care for like family whether they live in my home or yours. Pet care is already part of my daily life. I have three cats at home, including one I'm currently fostering. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and love being around them as much as possible. I provide a calm, pet-friendly space with lots of love and patience. I'm especially experienced with shy or anxious cats and dogs, and I make sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. My own pets are well socialized, and I’m happy to follow any special instructions you have.
“It was our first experience using Rover to find a cat sitter and we were not disappointed! Jessie’s calm energy and attention to detail is the perfect match for our kitties. It also gives us peace of mind knowing that we found someone who can relate to cats and is reliable to look after them. We look forward to Jessie’s next visit. ❤️”
About: Hello, I currently work at a doggy daycare named St. Tropawz. It can become quite busy, meaning I'm familiar with caring for up to 15 dogs at any given time. I'm particularly fond of Dobermans and high energy breeds like Huskies. I understand how to work with a dogs temperament to keep everyone safe during sudden unforeseen events. I work part time at a doggy daycare located in Rosemead California named St. Tropawz. Outside of that I'm a student, currently learning Linux and cybersecurity after having been in the cannabis industry for 7 years. I'm familiar with how to approach pets that are unfamiliar with me but would greatly appreciate meeting your pet alongside you to help establish trust. I currently have a senior Husky named whiskie who is ten and a half years of whom I take for daily walks while riding my longboard. That way he gets to stretch his legs and go for a nice run or jaunt jog. While working at the doggy daycare, I will at times look after dogs who are a bit skittish. I understand the importance in giving a dog space and allowing them the time and patience needed to warm up to new individuals. I also was taught by my parents to respect another persons home. I like to think the way we interact with the world around us is a reflection of how we were raised and a mirror to our inner world. With that in mind I will pay careful mind to your space, your instructions and your pets!
About: I've been an animal lover my entire life, I currently have 2 cats and 1 dog in my household and I was able to successfully acclimate them to one another using patience and positive reinforcement; and the 3 are inseparable now! Animals are my everything, I'm a recent college graduate with aspirations of running a non-profit animal sanctuary in the future. I'm currently working part-time and can meet any of your pet sitting needs with my schedule flexibility. I also go on daily walks as well, so any dog walks would perfectly fit my schedule. I am very experienced with caring for a variety of animals, whether it be in my home, a fairly large property with friendly animals, or yours; I can meet any of your pet sitting needs!
“Alex is amazing! She treated my 16-year-old cat with such love and care. She was prompt, dependable, and made me feel at ease being away from my girl. I will request her service over and over again. She is the best.”
“Zoey was amazing! It was a lot easier being away from home knowing she was going to drop in and keep my cat’s company. She followed instructions, gave me updates, sent pictures and most importantly made sure my cat got his daily medication. My cats were well looked after with her while I was away from home. I would not hesitate booking with her again! This was my first time using Rover and I could not have asked for a better experience!”

About: I have taken care of pets and been around pets since I was a child. I mainly specialize in cats but I have experience with medium and little sized dogs too.

About: Hi! I’m Valerie, formally an Anaheim pet sitter to now your local pet sitter here in La Puente 🐾.

“Xinyan “Moyo” was a great match for my antisocial cat. Moyo’s gentle and patient demeanor managed to get my cat to play and and socialize with her. She sent me photos of my baby enjoying her company. I will be rebooking Moyo weekly.”
“We’ve worked with Emily several times over the past year and every time has been great. We completely trust her with caring for our cat, Penny. Plus, Emily takes such incredible photos that our favorite all-time photos of Penny are ones that Emily has taken!”

Sheila was great!!! She put me at ease right away, it’s the little details that make a great sitter and that is Sheila! I so appreciated the updates on my pets and her descriptions which also helped me to relax so I could enjoy my vacation. Even my one scaredy cat eventually came out and was comfortable with her! No need to think twice about hiring Sheila, just do it! Also, she left ME a thank you card and adorable cat collars! I will be using her again for sure!
Was wonderfully comforting having Caroline take care of our pets while we were out of town – she was attentive and thoughtful about all of their care, including playtime! Loved getting her photos and videos with the updates each day – made me happy to know someone so in tune was there with them.
Tiffany is very thoughtful and sweet with my two weirdos! She stayed overtime to make sure they ate properly, also helped me take care of the house when I was gone. Of course she’s very responsive and communicative. Tiffany goes above and beyond and I will definitely ask Tiffany to help again!
Jessie was amazing with my cat. She was incredibly gentle, patient, and caring with my cat. Even during the meet and greet, my cat warmed up to her right away with no adjustment period at all. By the end, my cat absolutely adored her. Super grateful for the thoughtful care and attention during the drop-in visits.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
