“Grace is such a sweet and amazing sitter! She has communicated with me so kindly throughout the entire stay, sends regular photo updates, and follows instructions to a T—and I gave her a lot of instructions! Gemma can be very shy and takes time to warm up to new people, but Grace has been incredibly patient and has worked completely at her pace to make sure she feels safe and comfortable. I can see how much effort Grace is putting into earning her trust, and it’s been so sweet to see Gemma start to open up to her. She’s even managed to put a smile on my shy girl’s face by entertaining her with toys! 🥹❤️ I’m so grateful for Grace and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, patient, and trustworthy sitter.”

I'm located in Rosemead in Los Angeles County and offer personalized pet care in my home, as well as in clients' homes, hotels, vacation rentals, or other approved locations. I specialize in one-on-one pet care and focus on giving your dog plenty of attention, companionship, and affection. Whether you're a local, traveling for work, or visiting the Los Angeles area, I can provide a comfortable, caring environment in my home or come to you when that works best for you and your pet.

About: Working as a teacher and pet sitter have taught me many of the same skills: patience, communication, responsibility, and genuine care. I’ve traveled across the U.S. to pet sit for both cats and dogs, and I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. I’m attentive to owners’ instructions and take their trust seriously. Whether it’s keeping up with a feeding schedule, making sure a dog gets plenty of exercise, or giving a shy cat some extra space and patience, I do my best to make pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m also respectful of your home and always aim to leave a place as clean—or cleaner—than I found it. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away. I currently work as a substitute teacher, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of time before and after work to provide attentive care, and I’m generally able to adjust my schedule around a pet’s needs. I live a calm lifestyle and enjoy spending time at home, so pets get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I have a safe, comfortable home with a backyard where pets can get some fresh air and space to explore. I also live right next to a park with a designated pet area and plenty of greenery, which makes it easy to provide regular walks and outdoor time. I want pets in my care to feel comfortable and at home, while also following their owner’s routines, instructions, and preferences.

About: Hi! My name is Carol and dogs have been a part of my family my whole life - big and small. My personal experience with dogs consists of both being a pawrent and occasionally watching after my friends' dogs. I started hosting dogs on Rover in 2020. Currently, I have 2 dogs - a black lab and a senior terrier. I've got both a front and backyard which is plenty big for your dog to run around in and use the bathroom every couple of hours. You can trust that your dog will be fully attended to and comfortable as I only board up to 2-3 dogs at a time. You can count on receiving plenty of "pupdates" throughout their stay with me! I unfortunately cannot take puppies less than 1 years old or very high energy dogs as my own dogs do not do well with them. I work from home all week so you can trust that I will never be too far from your pup. On weekdays before/after work and on the weekends, I typically take the dogs out to the yard twice a day for play time. I welcome as much care instruction you want to provide me with for your dog's stay to ensure they are the most comfortable during their time with me! Play time and potty breaks are easily accessible in my fenced backyard.

She deals with my crazy dog (a german shepherd rescue) and my dog isn't easy to handle but she is so loving towards her and keeps me updated with cute pictures and anything that comes up in the visit. I can't recommend her enough. If you need a sitter, just hit book now! You won't regret it.”

About: I have years of experience caring for pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, litter box care, playtime, walks, and keeping pets comfortable and safe. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I care for pets like they're my own — with patience, consistency, and a whole lot of love. I work full-time during the week, but I'm especially flexible on Tuesdays, Fridays, and weekends, and I'm happy to coordinate before/after-work visits to fit your pet's routine. I follow your instructions closely — including feeding, medications, walks, and daily routines — and I’m careful about keeping doors, gates, and other areas secure. I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and will let you know right away if I notice anything unusual. You can also expect regular photo and video updates throughout the stay, so you always know your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Carol was so great with Barley! My dog is anxious and very selective with new folks. Carol took the time to get to know him during our meet & greet and it went so well. Because Barley is anxious, I have detailed instructions when he gets drop in visits or goes on walks with others and Carol took detailed notes without hesitation and did an amazing job. I would book Carol again!”

About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. Having owned three dogs throughout my life and currently raising a pug, I’m experienced with the patience, attention, and care dogs need to feel comfortable and happy! Friends have trusted me to care for their pets and I take the responsibility seriously in understanding the importance of providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment while owners are away. I treat every dog as if they were my own, paying close attention to their routines, comfort, and individual needs. My goal is to make both pets and their owners feel confident and at ease. Trust me and I’ll be sure to give your pet lots of love and care. ☺️ I’m currently working from home and already am caring for my own dog which makes it easy for me to care for yours! I can open my space for daycare until 6pm, walk your dogs in the morning and/or afternoon, or do drop in visits to check on your furry friend. I have a friendly pug to keep your furry baby company! I usually take him on walks around 7am, 12pm, and 5:30pm in which your pet will join along. My neighborhood is filled with other dog lovers and am close by to parks to do more scenic walks with your pet. My apartment is also big enough to crate or fence off if needed.

I also love that she is a vet tech. That put my mind at ease the whole time we were away. If she noticed small changes in my dog's behavior she would take precautions and monitored him like a pro. Even my neighbor commented on how wonderful she was and how our dog just fell in love with her. I will use Sydney every time we travel in the future!”

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!

Zihui is the best! Daily sitter for my 3 cats! I traveled out of the country for 7 days and I was so comfortable and at ease with Zihui coming over to my residence for daily drop ins. Zihui sent daily photos of my 3 cats; Her updates were very detailed with feeding schedules for each one and behavior patterns for each one. Zihui has a big heart for pets! She is very caring and within a short time she fell in love with my cats. My cats became comfortable with her. It brought joy to me knowing that my 3 babies (cats) were well taken care of. I will 100% recommend her to my family and friends . I will be booking her for future drop ins. Thank you Zihui

I’m so grateful I found Lauriane to help with my pup! I was taking a really stressful exam for 3 days and not once did I feel worried leaving her to care for him. My dog is not only very high energy and chaotic, but he takes medication and refuses to take his meds without a very “special” routine. Lauriane had no problem taking on the task. She sent so many cute photos and videos of him too. I would highly recommend her and I will certainly book her again in the future!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - East San Gabriel

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
