“This was our first time leaving Ozzy with Madalyn. We will be back for sure. She kept us updated and sent photos. Ozzy was super happy at her house and we couldn’t be happier. Thanks again”
“If you are looking for a spectacular sitter, hire Steven! He went above and beyond for our pup, keeping us posted every step of the way with great photos. Our dog has separation anxiety, but Steven handled it flawlessly by dedicating lots of quality time to him and taking him on frequent daily walks. We couldn't have asked for better peace of mind. Highly recommended!”
“Rika was amazing with our pup! She provided updates with pictures regularly and it showed how much she cared and loved our pup as if she was her own! We will definitely be calling her back to care for our pup again! A+++”
“We were visiting LA and had to board our dog for a couple of days. Joyce and her roommate took good care of Chelsea. Sent photos and updates through the day. Chelsea came back extremely happy. I would recommend Joyce for boarding services”
“Eric was an awesome sitter. Made our Kira feel very welcome staying in his home. He was very responsive and provided daily videos and pictures of our dog while we were away. This was our first time booking through a platform like Rover and Eric was the perfect sitter for our first time. Very pleased with the overall experience and would definitely recommend Eric as a sitter.”
“Jianle was great. He sent us photos of our dogs throughout the trip. When we needed to extend our travel, he was accommodating and responsive throughout all of it. Highly recommend!”
“Angelica was a great host! She welcomed my pup into her home warmly, and took great care of him. A couple nights later, I picked up a very happy dog! She checked in with me while I was away and took the time to ask important questions about George. I would absolutely recommend Angelica!”
“My dogs Teddy and Moose love staying at Ming Chia’s for boarding. I really appreciate that she’s so attentive towards the dogs and reports any health issues she might notice. She’s always sending photos/videos and giving the dogs treats. I feel at ease leaving them with her on long trips!”
“Janice was the best! She was so great witn Bear and gave so many updates and videos. It so reassuring to have someone like her and her family care for your pet.”
“Banksy had a wonderful stay with Victor and Haijin. They were so communicative, keeping us updated with progress and photos during her stay. I was so impressed by their responsiveness and clear love for pets. We will absolutely be back! I’d recommend Haijin and Victor to anyone looking for a safe, animal love filled home. Thank you!”
“Serena was amazing, she was very kind and we were able to get the dogs groomed while she watched them. They came back happy and looking great! We would definitely recommend her.”
“We have booked Cathy and Andres repeatedly to look after our Billie and every time we can always rely on frequent updates, quick contact if any issues arise, and great/thoughtful care of our pup. It always feels good to have trustworthy care!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have had dogs in my life since I was 5 years old. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs, and I genuinely love spending time with them. Over the years, I’ve owned multiple dogs and have experience caring for up to 4 dogs at once. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I currently work from home, so if your dog is staying with me, I’ll be home throughout the day to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. If you’re booking dog walking or drop-in visits, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to stop by reliably and ensure your pet receives the care they need. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac in a townhome with a fully fenced private patio. My home is equipped with exterior security cameras, as well as an indoor camera that overlooks the main living area for added peace of mind. I enjoy taking dogs on walks through my quiet neighborhood, and there’s also a large fenced park nearby for exercise and play. If your dog is crate-trained, I’m happy to accommodate that routine, and I also have a spare room available if they would benefit from having their own quiet space to relax.
“Ana and Mitchell were incredibly caring with Sophie. I needed a last-minute sitter for Sophie, who isn’t used to being home alone yet at 5 months, and they were amazing. What I love about them is that someone is always home and they only take one dog at a time. They were quick to schedule a meet-and-greet and were very welcoming. Sophie got to meet their dog, Ellie, and they got along instantly. Ana and Mitchell were flexible, accommodating, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure Sophie’s needs were met. We set up a short doggy date for a couple of hours, and it went perfectly- Sophie didn’t even notice we had left! Since leaving Sophie is new for us, we appreciated the frequent updates and their respect for her schedule. She came home happy and content, and it was clear she had a great time. Sophie will definitely be back soon. We even forgot a couple of things at their house and stopped by later, and Sophie was eager to go back inside to Ana and Mitchell’s home- showing just how comfortable she feels there.”
“Kaili took wonderful care of Lolo while we were away. She sent lots of photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind, and it was obvious he was having a great time and being cared for like he was part of her family. We came home to a happy dog, and that means everything. I would absolutely trust her with Lolo again and will definitely use her services in the future. Thank you so much, Kaili! 💛”
“Georgina and her family were incredibly amazing with our 2 dogs for 4-5 days. They were patient with us during the meet and greet and then sent daily updates, we were concerned the dogs would be sad or confused but they had the best time at Georgina’s house! I highly recommend her service and would book her again in the future.”
“Amy was great! She provided daily updates with pics! And fed my spoiled fur baby all his daily treats. She even cooked more chicken when the original batch ran out. Ty for taking care of my dog!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Monte
Madalyn was wonderful with our dog. She took great care of her and kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout her stay. She was very attentive to my dog’s eating, potty habits, and overall well-being, and she even tried different things to encourage her to eat when she was being picky. I really appreciated how caring, patient, and thoughtful she was. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands while we were away. I would definitely recommend Madalyn and would be happy to have her take care of my dog again. Thank you so much, Madalyn! 😊
Fantastic people!! I will definitely be using Georgina again! I could feel the care that the family provided. I was afraid Bailee, my dog, wouldn't want to come back home! Lol Absolutely the best! She listened to my requests and acted on them. I consider it a Perfect Weekend for my baby
Jennifer was a wonderful caretaker for my 2 small senior dogs. On short notice, she was able to accommodate them for that weekend and was able to be flexible with drop off and pick up times. That was especially helpful for me, given the hectic weekend I had ahead. She sent me several updates with videos and pictures throughout each day of them eating, relaxing inside/outside and sleeping. Even though I was not able to reply right away, she still sent updates anyway and when I did have a chance to check my phone, it was a much needed sense of peace being able to see that my babies looked relaxed and happy while they were away from home. Her fur baby Pocky was a big ball of love during our initial meet, I knew right away things would go smoothly between our babies. When I arrived for pick up, they were both napping then happy to see me when I woke them up, tippy tapping around and loving on me. That tells me they were in good spirits and not stressed. I am new to boarding and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you Jennifer, Pocky, and family for welcoming us into your home!
I left Jasper and echo with Treasure overnight yesterday and I couldn’t be happier. They were in an even better mood than when I left and they fell right asleep on the ride home this afternoon, so I know they had a great time with her. I look forward to booking with Treasure whenever I need a hand with my doggies again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in El Monte on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 10,412 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across El Monte. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of El Monte sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which El Monte landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their El Monte home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your El Monte.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your El Monte sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
