“Nancy was absolutely incredible with my cat, who usually hides from strangers. I received detailed updates and cute photos that completely set my mind at ease. I am so grateful to have found someone so reliable and trustworthy. Highly recommend!”
“Eric was great! Was prompt on the times he said he be there, provided plenty of pictures and video of our cat. Was proactive and super responsive, will definitely book him again!”
“Alex is wonderful! I went out of town for Thanksgiving and left my cat for the first time since moving here in August. I don’t yet have any neighbors or friends to keep an eye on him for me, so finding Alex was truly a blessing. She is attentive, communicative, knowledgeable, and loving- everything I value in a pet sitter. I absolutely recommend her and will definitely be reaching out to her again!”
“I’ve only ever hired one dog sitter and it is Jalee! I have a hard time leaving my dogs with someone just because i want them to have fun and be comfortable and Jalee is perfect for them. She does above and beyond work. Highly recommended to book with her”
About: I love spending time caring for animals. I have grown up taking in stray cats and dogs. Animals gravitate towards me and I them. They're my favorite I do work full time. But I will make myself available over weekends. I may also work on weekdays as my schedule allows for it. I am not able to pet sit in my home. But I will take diligent notes to ensure your pet is happy and safe while you're out.
About: I enjoy all animals, so am happy to be of service to any pets, not just cats and dogs!! I’ve taken care of my family’s dogs since I was 12 and grew up with dogs since I was a baby. I helped potty train the dog we got when I was 12 and also taught him all of his tricks. He unfortunately was diagnosed with stomach cancer in January of this year (2026) and passed away a few weeks later. In his last weeks, I did everything I could to make him as comfortable as possible and to make sure he knew how loved he was/always will be. He is missed every single day! I’m currently taking some classes Mon-Thursday that I need to apply to grad school. I have class Mon/Wed 11am-4pm and Tues/Thurs 8am-12:30pm. Outside of these class times, I am available anytime during the weekdays as well as all day Friday-Sunday. I will always keep my eyes on your pet when they’re outside and will make sure that they obey house rules if they are indoors. I will also always make sure they feel comfortable and safe.
“My dogs (two 5-year old German shepherds) love Loretta and I have utilized her services several times and she takes great care of my fur babies anytime I’m gone. I appreciate her very much! I highly recommend her.”
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!

I am available daily for drop-in visits and can easily fit pet care into my routine. I can provide feeding, litter cleaning, and calm companionship for cats at convenient times for their owners.

About: Hi! I’m Valerie, formally an Anaheim pet sitter to now your local pet sitter here in La Puente 🐾. With over 11 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets with special needs, I know how to make every fur baby feel safe, loved, and at home. 🥰 Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, play dates, or overnight stays, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m comfortable giving medications, handling senior pets, and caring for animals with special needs. Plus, we keep a house full of toys, treats, and even a water filtered fountain that our pets love, so visiting fur babies feel just as spoiled! I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I’m always around to give plenty of playtime, and attention. Most importantly lots of love and cuddles! I live with my fiancé (also another fellow animal lover), along with our two dogs and one cat, so your pets will always have company and never feel alone. I can cater to what your pet wants and needs when you bring them over to my place. We will keep a look out for your pets in our house as they are ours.
About: I have worked in a animal hospital for several years as a veterinary technician and boarded different animals all shapes and sizes and I was the primary caretaker for them along with my own pets at home. I am a mom of 4 and currently on Maternity leave. Kids are at school/daycare for the day except for my newborn . If you book me for a doggy walk I will be bringing my new born on the walk I hope it's not a problem. I am available Monday-Sunday. I have cameras in my home to offer extra piece of mind and for both our safety. I care for these animals as my very own , they say, animals can sense a genuine and loving human, and that is in fact true when they meet me.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - El Monte
Jacqueline was a pleasure to have take care of our fur babies. We appreciate her communication with us and all the pictures she sent. Not one day did we have to worry if our babies were ok. Maybe just the first day because we didn’t know what to expect. We have one really shy cat and we were worried she wouldn’t eat or come out of hiding but she did really great with her. She even played with them. We will definitely be booking her again. Thank you.
I feel so lucky to have found her! She is incredibly caring and thoughtful, always follows the house rules and instructions, and even stays a little longer to make sure Rudy is taken care of. I really appreciate how much love and attention she gives him. I’ll definitely book with her again! Highly recommend! ❤️
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.

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.

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.
