About: Growing up with a dog and now raising my best friend, Cali, I’ve always had a love for dogs! I love making pets feel at home by giving them plenty of companionship, affection, and time to do the things they enjoy most. I am a Kindergarten teacher and am available afternoons and evenings, even weekends. I love to go on long walks after work, during the week, and would love to take your pup with me. I have a fenced in backyard with space for dogs to run around and use the restroom. I live very close to a large park that is great for walks.

Also, was the overnight caregiver many times for the internet famous “Bala” abandoned baby goat on the hill before he got adopted. Have had long term relationships with common domestic pet owners to non traditional pet owners, such as pigs. Have had experience with after surgery care, senior pets, blind/deaf and administering medication. Happy to now bring that knowledge and care to OC. Currently working on some projects remote so my schedule is quite flexible at the moment. If my schedule changes I would schedule around commitments made and always update families for future scheduling. I am always open to abiding by the natural routine of the pets, mirroring as closely as instructed. I make sure to keep the environment clean, that rubbish and recycling are taken out and that the pets remain as comfortable and safe as possible.

“As a first time puppy owner, I was anxious about leaving my fur baby with someone new. Esther made it seem easy peasy! I appreciate her photos/videos throughout the day and kept me updated what Twix was doing. Definitely would recommend !”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my entire life. I grew up helping with my family’s dog kennel, where we raised French Brittany dogs. I helped care for puppy litters from birth, raised and trained puppies, and even showed two of our dogs in dog shows. That upbringing taught me the responsibility, patience, and attention to detail that animals need to thrive. Cats have always had a special place in my heart. I’ve had three cats over the years and currently share my home with two, so I’m very comfortable with feline routines, personalities, and quirks. While cats are my specialty, my years at the kennel give me solid, hands-on experience with dogs as well. I love both cats and dogs, and I’d be honored to care for yours. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and getting the love and attention they deserve. I work from home as a website account manager for a small web design firm, which gives me a flexible schedule built around my laptop rather than an office. That flexibility means I can plan my day around your pet’s needs, whether that’s regular feedings, walks, playtime, or medication schedules. My only fixed commitment is Wednesday mornings, when I have mandatory meetings. The rest of the week I’m available throughout the day, so your pet gets consistent attention and care without being rushed. I believe great pet care comes down to consistency and paying close attention. With my own two cats, I keep a steady routine: a daily evening meal (plus an automatic feeder in the mornings) and litter boxes cleaned every day. When I first adopted one of my cats, she had ongoing tummy troubles, so I had her allergy tested and worked through several foods until we found one that settled her stomach. She’s been healthy ever since. My other cat struggled with going outside the litter box, and over several months I figured out the routine, litter, and box setup that worked for her. Accidents are now rare. I bring that same patience and attention to every pet I care for. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, medications, and any special needs, and I’ll keep an eye out for any changes in appetite, behavior, or litter box habits so I can let you know right away. Your home and your pet’s safety are my priority, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you never have to wonder how they’re doing.

About: The first pay I earned as a kid was doing drop-in visits for a neighbor’s dogs, feeding and playing and doing check-ins with them throughout the day as a middle schooler. I grew up living with and taking care of my family dogs, and I am now the proud father of a darling golden retriever, Ginger, and a very special, cuddly diluted tortoise shell house cat, Freya. I have raised a puppy for Guide Dogs of America, taking care of and training basic commands from 8 weeks to a 18 months old, and have helped my wife foster many kittens for adoption with various outfits. I’ve watched neighbor’s dogs while they were out of town, done drop-in feedings for family member’s cats (5, each with their own type of food and feeding order!), and pet sat for friends during extended vacations. A pet is a part of our hearts, and I treat every pet I walk, watch, and play with like it is a part of mine. Gentle, nurturing, with patience and kindness. I am currently a freelance creative worker from home, so my schedule is very flexible and open for daytime drop-ins, dog walking, pet feeding, and play time! I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits with your animals and can accommodate different windows for busy and traveling pet parents alike. I have experience walking both adult dogs and puppies, as well as different dog sizes. Growing up, my family dogs were mostly small sized breeds like Shih Tzus, but as an adult I currently have a golden retriever as part of the family, so I am comfortable working with both small and larger sized dogs. I also have a cat that is very strictly only an indoor kitty, so I am extremely cognizant of door and house security when dealing with inside-only animals.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East La Mirada
She was absolutely incredible! Watched our cat and dog with the upmost care! Kept me updated every day and let me know if anything was up with the pets and even our home! And the fur babies just loved her company! Made them feel very comfortable and safe! Played with them, walked and fed in a timely manner. Just hands down one of the best sitters! Highly recommend hiring her!!

We absolutely loved having Alyssa as a sitter! We have one senior dog that needs a lot of care and a puppy so they can be a lot and she handled it all so well and communicated everything to us that really allowed us to relax and actually leave home for once. Cannot say thank you enough.

Hye took wonderful care of my dog Alec for four nights, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was communicative, reliable, and clearly very attentive to Alec’s needs the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and photos. It made me feel confident that he was happy, comfortable, and in great hands while I was away. When I got home, Alec was relaxed and clearly well cared for, which says everything. Hye is kind, responsible, and clearly loves animals. I would absolutely trust her to watch Alec again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable sitter.

Matthew was the best house/pet sitter I have had. He not only took very good care of our home but went above and beyond with our babies. He did everything we asked and did things he didn't even need to do to make it less stressful for us. I will definitely use him in the future and highly recommend him.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred East La Mirada walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in East La Mirada maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in East La Mirada choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
