“Very pleased to have found Cathy and Andres on Rover! You can feel the genuine love they have for their four-legged charges. I felt safe and our pup got taken care of...perfect!”
About: I’ve never met a pet I didn’t absolutely love! I have over 15 years of pet care experience, caring for dogs of all ages. I am incredibly thorough, patient, and chronically on-time. For 5+ years, my mom and I found a passion in fostering and adopting senior dogs in the shelters. While caring for dogs of all ages, I have experience calming the most energetic pups, as well as giving dogs medications and insulin injections. I would love to take amazing care of your pets! I am currently job-searching, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pup! I am available Monday-Friday, 8 am - 5 pm. I have a fenced-in yard with a pool (open to doggies who want to play!) and plenty of indoor space for your pet to play and relax. Your pet will ALWAYS be supervised while outside near the pool. I would love to accommodate your pet based on your preferences!
About: I am now a pet groomer. In my daily work, I can come into contact with various dogs. I know their personality traits and things to pay attention to. Every dog is unique. We must understand and love him. Master basic dog training techniques. The safety of your dog comes first at all times I work as a groomer three to four days a week and am available to take care of dogs in my free time, especially on weekends and evenings. I can spend time with your dog and offer grooming and care advice. Safety and compassion are my top priorities. Please rest assured that leaving your dog with me will keep her active and happy. When we visit dogs at home, we will communicate with the dog owners in advance, play with the dog in a designated area, and play games with the dog according to its preferences to keep the dog active and healthy.
About: As an experienced dog owner, I love working with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. While I specialize in large breeds and high-energy working dogs who need confident handling and structured exercise, I am equally attentive, gentle, and patient with medium and small dogs. No matter the size, your pup is in safe, capable hands. As a flexible local professional, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. Because I manage my own schedule, I am out and about in the LA area every day, making it easy to accommodate prompt drop-ins and structured walks when you need them most. My routine is highly active, which is perfect for high-energy working breeds that need consistent, timely mid-day exercise to break up their day. At the same time, my flexibility allows me to easily tailor my schedule for smaller or senior dogs who need dedicated, calm potty breaks and attention. Whether you need a regular weekly schedule or occasional check-ins, I build my days around ensuring your pets get consistent, reliable, and on-time care. When caring for your pets, my absolute priority is safety, structural consistency, and clear communication. For Dog Walking & Drop-In Visits: I tailor every visit to your dog's specific size, energy level, and temperament. For large or high-energy breeds, I focus on confident leash handling, maintaining their established training commands, and giving them a robust, engaging workout to burn off steam safely. For medium and smaller dogs, I adjust the pace to ensure a comfortable, stress-free stroll or focused playtime. For House Sitting (In Your Home): I respect your space entirely and keep your dog’s exact home routine intact to prevent any separation anxiety. I ensure they are fed on time, kept on their regular potty schedule, and given plenty of attention. You will receive regular check-ins and high-quality photo updates during every single service so you always have total peace of mind.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have spent the past 11 years with my two dogs, a Pit Bull mix and a Jack Russell Terrier. I’m very experienced with walking, bathing, and caring for dogs, and I consider my own dogs part of my family. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I treat every dog with love, kindness, and respect, just as I would my own. I’m excited to turn my love for dogs into something I can do every day while providing reliable, caring service to your furry family members! I’m currently not working, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available throughout the week, except for Mondays, and I’m also available on weekends. I enjoy spending time with dogs, taking them on walks, playing with them, and making sure they get plenty of attention. I offer dog walking and pet sitting, but I don’t offer boarding since I have two dogs of my own. In my own home, my two dogs have access to a dog door and a spacious backyard where they can play and enjoy themselves. They’re also welcome to sleep in my room because I love having them close to me. I’m very attentive and affectionate with my dogs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I would take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and approach them gently so they don’t feel nervous or overwhelmed. I would respect their boundaries, follow the owner’s instructions, and maintain their usual routines. I would also make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and love. My goal is to make every dog feel as happy, safe, and loved as they do at home.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my life and have experience caring for dogs of all ages. To prioritize your pet’s well-being, I exclusively care for one pet at a time, dedicating my undivided attention and offering ample love and care. 🐶 Rest assured your doggy will receive the utmost comfort and personalized care throughout their stay with me! I work from home and have the flexibility to accommodate multiple walks during the day for your pet. Additionally, depending on my availability, I am open to providing long-term pet sitting services. I live in a clean and spacious apartment, ensuring a comfortable environment for your furry friend. If needed, I can provide pick up and drop off for your pet!
About: Hello! I'm Michael Lawrence. As a lifelong animal lover and meticulous planner, I know how important it is to find someone you can completely trust with your furry family members. Whether your dog needs a high-energy power walk to burn off morning zoomies, a gentle stroll, or attentive drop-in visits while you're away, I treat every pet with the exact same care, patience, and affection I give my own. Having my own 80-pound, high-maintenance Pitbull means pet care isn't just a part-time job for me—it's my everyday life. Handling a strong, high-energy dog has taught me the value of structured routines, calm leadership, and proactive leash safety, especially during my dedicated mid-day walking hours from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Whether your pup needs a firm, confident handler for power walks or just a patient buddy to stick to their precise daily routine, I treat every dog with the same level of safety, focus, and dedicated care I give my own. Your home and your pet’s routine are treated with absolute respect. During visits and walks, I strictly follow your entry, security, and alarm procedures to ensure your home remains completely secure. I maintain a clean, organized space, always double-checking that doors, gates, and crates are latched tightly before leaving. For walks, I conduct quick safety checks on collars, harnesses, and leashes, and I always keep dogs on a firm leash with clear spatial awareness to avoid unexpected hazards. You’ll get real-time updates and photos so you know your pet and home are in safe, reliable hands.
About: Hey! My name is peter and I’m messaging you to welcome you to the rover! community. If your pat needs a new companion or just some extra exercise, I’m here to help! You can book services directly with me by hitting Book Now on this message. Thanks, and welcome to the rover! community! I currently work part-time and am available at home from 8 AM to 5 PM every day. I start working for Uber after 5 PM. Therefore, I would like to use my daytime hours to take care of cats and dogs. My little dog is named Piao Paio, and he's a Teddy dog from China. He's 7 years old, and I take him with me almost every afternoon when I deliver Uber Eats. He's very well-behaved and waits for me in the car. He usually roams freely in the yard. He eats half dog food and half homemade food, and he especially loves dragon fruit.
“Felicia did a great job taking care of our cat Biscuit. She was super flexible with schedules even during the busy holiday travel season. For the drop-in visits, she followed our instructions quite well and provided photos and videos for every visit. We will definitely look for Felicia for future travels.”
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.
“Cristina was very professional and took very good care of our kitties while we were away. She went above and beyond and helped us out with some house stuff too. She sent lots of pictures and videos and kept us updated about everything. We will definitely have her take care of our cats again.”
About: I have not cared for any dogs for long but I am happy to learn, grow, and develop to help care for your pets. I am open to learning new skills that will show the most care and love for your pet. I am currently working and have school but I am happy to care for you pets. I typically finish work at 9 am so any time after that I would be happy to come help you. Normally I care for pets in my clients home and make sure that the pets are receiving constant care. I am good with following schedules and routines for not only the pets but also for the owners home. I want the pets I care for to be safe, comfortable, and loved and bring peace of mind to their owners.
“Payton was amazing! Great communication and follow instructions. My cat doesn’t like anyone but she likes her which is good thing! Will definitely use her service again next time. Thank you Payton!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats all my life. I’ve had the opportunity to raise multiple dog and cat litters ranging from days to weeks old. I’ve been dog sitting for close friends and family for the past five years and have learned to work with shy, older and more energetic dogs. I’m currently available in the evenings from Monday - Thursday starting at 6:00pm. I’m free to sit and dog walk those days and from Friday-Sunday I have more flexibility for potty breaks, walking and stay in home. In my clients home I always pay attention to possible hazards. I keep all doors shut at all times and make sure to provide a clean space for pets at all times. I’m able to set up play pens and dog proof homes.
“As per usual, Rique was wonderful. He came to let our pups out in spite of a last minute request on our part. We got photos immediately after he left, which are always delightful to see.”
About: I have had a dog my whole life and love spending time with them, I love taking walks and playing and just hanging out with them. I work from home so I will have all day to spend hanging out with your dog and giving them all the love they need. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly sweet dog who loves to play and is very socialized with all the dogs and people.
About: I am a very kind, patient loving woman who has always had fur babies and treat everyone's fur babies with love and compassion. Animals only want love and I will always give that to them. As of right now, I am unemployed so I am available 7 days a week. When i do normally have a job, I will still be available 3-4 days a week. I follow the clients list of do's and don't that they leave for me. I always keep in contact with the owner/owners so that they always feel at ease.
About: I have a deep love for animals & was privileged to grow up with a dog that lived till 16!! I have had experience with both puppies & senior dogs! I will find any chance to pet a dog walking by & any excuse to spend time with any animal!! I am currently in university but I am free every day of the week after 1pm! My classes start at 11:30 so I need to go to a house to feed the pets or take them on a walk before 11:30 I can certainly do so! weekends are a bit more tricky but I can work around any schedule:) I currently don’t have any pets at home but I have a big front yard & backyard which are both gated, but regardless your pet will be under my supervision!!
“Jasmine is always the best! The drop-in was a super help for us so that we don’t have to worry about rushing home to feed and walk the dogs! We love Jasmine and our girls are always happy to see her - we are fur-ever greatful!”
About: What truly sets me apart is my patience and the way I care for dogs and cats as if they were my own family. Even if a pet is stubborn, moody, or doesn’t want to cooperate, I never rush or force them. I take the time to gently guide, understand, and build trust with them. I have hands-on experience potty training, teaching basic skills, and being part of a pets daily growth and routine. I love spending time playing with them every day and watching them learn and gain confidence over time. I’m also comfortable with daily care tasks such as brushing, administering medication, brushing teeth, and giving baths. My goal is always to provide consistent, loving, and patient care so every pet feels safe, understood, and truly at home. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. They are my families. I work from home, so I have lots of time and flexibility to be with cats throughout the day. I can easily do drop-in visits, spend extended time with them, or stay overnight whenever needed 🐾 I genuinely love being around cats and truly enjoy every moment with them — whether we’re playing, cuddling, or just quietly keeping each other company. Spending time with cats brings me so much happiness and comfort, and it’s honestly one of my favorite parts of my life 💕 I care for pets with lots of love, patience, and attention — just like I do with my own three very cute cats at home 😸 Every day, I spend at least an hour actively playing with them. Sometimes we play chase with toys, and other times we play fetching games, which they absolutely love. I also take grooming and daily care seriously. I clean their ears about three times a week, trim their nails every two weeks, and brush their teeth regularly. I’m comfortable providing all the basic care cats may need, including gentle handling, playtime, grooming, and lots of cuddles and affection. Your cat will be treated like my own and will be in loving, attentive hands. I truly believe that with my care, your kitty will feel healthy, safe, and very happy 💗🐾

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - East Pasadena
I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! She was incredibly caring, attentive, and responsible throughout the entire time. She kept me updated with regular photos and videos, made sure my cat was comfortable and well taken care of, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treats them as her own. As a pet owner, being away from your fur baby can be stressful, but she gave me so much peace of mind. I’m truly grateful for her care and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, thoughtful, and dependable to look after their pets!
Thea is a wonderful person who is absolutely reliable, responsible, and who goes out of her way to make sure our cats are well cared for while we are away. We love how well she knows our fluffs by now and what they respond to best. Thank you so much for consistently great work!
Cristina did an amazing job caring for my two kitties while I was on a three week vacation. This was the longest I had been away from my cats so I was worried they would be stressed, but they loved Cristina immediately and were instantly comfortable with her. Cristina even brought new toys to keep them entertained. I had so much peace of mind with Cristina caring for my cats. Cristina was communicating with me the entire time I was away and working with her was a breeze. I will definitely book with her again!
Lindsay is outstanding - super reliable and communicative. During a recent visit, my cat’s auto feeder stopped working, and on top of it, ants were getting into my apt. She let me know right away, came up with some quick solutions/helped clean things up, and still made sure my cat was well taken care of. She’s the best!
In my second booking with Faye, I was thoroughly impressed by her exceptional service. Her compassion and care for my cats are evident in every interaction. Faye consistently goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being of my feline companions, providing me with unwavering peace of mind while I am away from home. Her dedication and professionalism continue to astound me, and each experience surpasses the last.
Neko took care of Elizabeth in such a considerate manner. She constantly sent me updates with pictures and notes about her appetite. She also tried to play with Elizabeth to get her attention after feeding her. I highly recommend Neko as she is very thoughtful and truly caring for my cat!
Alyssa has been taking care of our two dogs. One of them needs special care such as insulin administration 2x/day and some pills. She is easy to communicate with and sent us regular updates. We were comfortable leaving our fur babies while we went on vacation. We highly recommend Alyssa! :)
She took such great care of my cat! She was attentive, caring, and always communicated promptly. She was also flexible and adjusted her approach and communication based on the situation. I felt completely at ease knowing my cat was in such good hands. Highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in East Pasadena is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $40 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 20,967 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across East Pasadena. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in East Pasadena. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
