Cat Sitting Monterey Park

About: I have my own tabby cat Penelope for the last 2 years! I've had her since 10 weeks so Ive taken care if her as a kitten and full grown. but my credentials go way back :D ever since I was in elementary , I have played and was the second mother to my cousins maltese dog Cream since she was 2 weeks old. i helped teach her how to sit, stand, and spin while standing! Whenever they are away on trips, I am their go-to sitter. In terms of experience with 100+lb dogs, I love going to my friends house to play with their big golden retriever named kiwi! its currently summer break so I am actually free everyday and want to have an excuse to be out and about so book me haha! when school starts I will be free mon,wed after 2pm, friday after 12pm, and anytime for any other day of the week I can deal with an excited animal that barks or bites when asked to go on a walk haha. if your per has an elaborate 10 ingredient meal that needs to be put together every meal time you can count on me to chef it up 👩‍🍳 I love sports so I will always have energy to play with your pet :)

About: I am your friendly, neighborhood, middle-aged auntie that loves and cares for pets and animals. I've grown up with cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, and now poultry. I specialize in dog walks and drop in visits for all of your critters. I mainly conduct all of my own pet chores in the morning, so I can be available for your pet needs later on in the day! I carefully follow instructions to conduct my drop in visits, and I will ask for clarification if something is missing at the home. I can walk dogs and check in on reptiles, fish, mammals, and poultry.

About: I grew up with a medium-sized Cocker Spaniel mix who was part of my family for 17 years. I was involved in caring for him throughout his life, and during his senior years, I spent even more time by his side. I prepared his meals, helped with his daily needs, and assisted with his oxygen therapy when needed. Caring for him taught me how to be patient, gentle, and attentive to a dog’s individual needs, especially as they get older. I genuinely love animals and would care for every pet with the same patience and affection I gave my own. As a college student, my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have plenty of time outside of classes to care for pets. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual routine and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and drop-in visits throughout the week. I always follow each owner’s instructions carefully and respect every pet’s individual routine and personality. During walks and drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and gets plenty of attention. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

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.

“So I brought Sammy over to Sylvia’s place and she felt right at home. She took her for a walk and Sammy loved it! Sylvia is a true animal lover it seems and really cared for Sammy during the drop in! I would 100% take Sammy back there!”

About: Hi! My name is Kenji and I have an adorable 6 year old dashschund named Winston. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and spending time with pets is something that genuinely brings me joy. Over the past 10 years, I've become the go-to dog sitter for my friends and family because they know I'll care for their pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I would my own. I've looked after dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies who love to explore to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also have experience caring for reactive dogs and understand the importance of staying calm, recognizing their triggers, respecting their boundaries, and following their routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. Whether we're going for a walk, playing fetch, sticking to their daily routine, or just relaxing together, my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll always follow your care instructions, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a wagging tail, earning a shy dog's trust, or knowing an owner can travel with complete peace of mind. I treat every pet like family, and I'd love the opportunity to care for yours. I work remotely with a flexible schedule and have minimal meetings throughout the day, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m typically available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and keeping pets company. I enjoy building pet care into my daily routine, whether that means taking a dog out for a walk, providing enrichment and play, following their normal schedule, or simply spending quality time with them. Since I’m home most of the day, I’m able to be attentive to pets’ needs and provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. My flexible schedule also allows me to be consistent and dependable with each pet’s routine, which I know is especially important for dogs who thrive on structure and familiarity. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own environment. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I take the time to follow each owner's instructions closely and provide care that fits their normal schedule. During walks, I prioritize safety while making sure dogs get the exercise, enrichment, and attention they need. I’m comfortable adjusting the pace and style of walks based on each dog's energy level, age, and temperament, including being patient with dogs who may be nervous or reactive. For drop-in visits, I provide more than just the basics—I’ll make sure pets have fresh water, meals if needed, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m also happy to send regular photo updates so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain their pet’s routine, and make sure both the pet and home are left safe and comfortable.

About: *For boarding and day care, your loved one would be staying in a dog-free fenced-in home, allowing for a calm, low-stress environment with individualized attention. I only provide care for one client household at a time* Hi, I’m Steven—a retired restaurant manager who brings the same responsibility, consistency, and attention to detail to pet care. I’m calm, patient, and dependable, helping dogs feel safe and relaxed. I’ve been professionally caring for dogs for over 20 years and dog-sit for regular clients throughout most of the year. Many of those clients have encouraged me to open more availability on Rover so more pet parents can benefit from the care I provide. I do especially well with dogs who thrive on steady routines, gentle handling, and clear communication. Whether your dog is energetic or laid-back, I focus on reliable, attentive care and ensuring they feel comfortable and well looked after at all times. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m retired and have open availability. I do not have competing work commitments, so I can give your dog consistent attention throughout the day rather than fitting care around another job. I can maintain their usual feeding schedule, walks, medication routine, playtime, rest, and companionship. Because I care for dogs from only one client household at a time, I’m able to provide the flexibility, supervision, and individualized attention each dog deserves. I am Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid Certified. Every pet is unique, so I tailor care to their individual needs, routine, and comfort habits. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I closely follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, exercise, and any special care needs to help keep their routine as familiar as possible. Safety always comes first. I maintain a calm, low-stress environment and use secure entry and exit procedures, careful leash handling, and close supervision during walks, outdoor time, and play. For boarding and day care in my home, I provide care for dogs from only one client household at a time, helping avoid the stress and risks that can come with unfamiliar group settings. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.

“Alexandria was THE BEST sitter my cat has ever had! She was punctual, dependable, easy to communicate with, and such a sweetheart! My 15-year-old cat, Miko, has very specific eating instructions and supplements she takes every day. Alex followed directions perfectly while we were gone for a week. I felt so assured that my cat was being taken care of in such a loving way. Alex sent me updates and pictures everyday. Miko doesn’t warm up easily to people immediately, but she bonded with Alex right away! I totally understand why — Alex is a sweet and loving sitter who will take care of your pets with all her heart! I will continue to use her services and refer all my friends and fam to her! <3”

So let me help you and your pet , while still helping me . (:

“Sydney is the best! I'm such a worrying dog-mom, and she could not have been more perfect. She was highly communicative with me and was very easy to get in touch with. 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!”

“Lovvveed Courtney as my cat parent!!! I had a big feeling since she has her own cats that she is a natural caretaker and from the ❤️ - I was right. She was so receptive & I TRUSTED her without meeting to leave a key to drop into my home while I was gone on a trip. She was engaged with love for my loving boy who doesn’t like being alone - and gave me a report and pics as I asked aha so lucky to have you Courtney !! Will absolutely use her for future trips”
