“Gabriella was so great!! She sent me the cutest photos and was very communicative with how it was going while I was away. My dog was even willing to go on a walk with her which is a huge accomplishment because Nama usually doesn’t like to leave the house if I’m not home. Looking forward to having Gabriella watch Nama again in the future!”
“Michelle was great with our pups! Very kind and communicative. Frankly, I think my pups were sad to see us come home because they had so much fun while we were away! We will absolutely reach out again!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Avery! She took incredible care of both our dogs and our home while we were away. We came back to a clean, organized house that was above and beyond what we expected, and our pups were clearly happy, relaxed, and well-loved. Avery kept us updated with lots of great photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. We would not hesitate to use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring.”
“Sahirah was absolutely amazing with my dogs. She was very communicative with me and loving towards my animals. She sent me plenty of pictures and was very responsive. I highly reccomend her!”
“Emily was amazing! She has such great energy—easygoing, kind, and a wonderful communicator. She had so much patience with my senior rescue maltipoo and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell my pup was in caring hands. I’d definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again!”
“Courtney was a fantastic cat sitter. She took wonderful care of her and handled Gaia’s asthma medication with so much patience and confidence, even during those first few days when it can be a bit tricky. It was such a relief knowing Gaia was in calm, capable hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Courtney gave her, and I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.”
“Kathy is wonderful! She’s kind, friendly, and incredibly skilled and focus with our fur bebe, Pumpkin. He’s quite shy, and she takes her time to get to know him and build trust. We look forward to more doggo care with Kathy!”
“Limari was great w my pups, she was communicative and flexible with my newness to the app in a few years. The pups seems happy and the house looked better than I left it! I'll certainly be using her services in the future”
“Courtney came through for us at the last minute and took great care of our senior, blind dog. She even helped us out immensely when we had to extend our trip due to a medical emergency. She also left the house exactly as we left it. Our anxious dog was comfortable with Courtney’s calm and confident vibes.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid – we always had family animals, and I grew up feeding, walking, and bathing them. I had a Golden Retriever and a 6 years old cat so I’m used to high‑energy pups and know how to keep them happy, safe, and well‑exercised. You’ll get daily photo updates, so you can relax while you’re away. I can easily fit in walks or drop‑in visits anytime during the day, evening, or weekends. I’m available Monday through Friday from morning to night, and fully open on Saturdays and Sundays. If your pets needs extra attention (e.g., after surgery or just separation anxiety), I can even be home full‑time for a day – just let me know in advance. When I care for your pets in your home, I always start with a safety check – making sure doors, windows, and gates are secure, and removing any hazards like toxic plants or small objects. I’ll follow your feeding and guidelines precisely, and I always ask about things to look for ahead of time. You’ll get daily photo updates and a quick message after each visit – so you can relax knowing your pet is safe and happy.
About: Hi, I’m Steven— a retired restaurant manager who brings the same level of responsibility, consistency, and attention to detail to pet care. I’m calm, patient, and dependable, which helps dogs feel safe and relaxed with me. I already dogsit most of the year, and many of my regular clients encourage me to open up more availability on Rover so more owners can benefit from the care I provide. I do especially well with dogs who prefer steady routines, gentle handling, and clear communication. Whether your dog is energetic or more laid-back, I focus on providing reliable, attentive care and making sure they feel comfortable and well looked after at all times. 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 and more individualized attention. I only provide care for one family at a time. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I’m retired and have very open availability. I don’t juggle other work commitments, so your pet’s schedule becomes my schedule. This allows me to be flexible with feeding times, walks, medication needs, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to give pets the attention and consistency they deserve rather than fitting them in between other obligations. Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid Certified. Your loved one is unique, so I always tailor my care to specific needs and routines. In your home or out, I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and comfort habits so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I keep a calm, low-stress environment and prioritize safety at all times — secure double doors, careful leash handling, and close supervision during walks and play. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while you’re away.
“Chris was an excellent house and pet sitter! She gave detailed updates and photos every day and kept all the pets on schedule with food and meds they needed to take. The house was left clean, tidy and safe when we arrived back home. Would hire again!”
About: Hi, I’m Megan! I am a passionate pet lover dedicated to providing safe, attentive, and reliable care for your furry family members right here in Montebello. Whether your dog needs a high-energy neighborhood walk, your cat needs their daily routine maintained, or you need a trusted companion for overnight stays, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I love taking care of all kinds of animals since the age 10. I volunteered at a near by veterinarian hospital and care for neighbors, family members and friends pets. I love animals of all sorts.(: I have 15+ years of experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes, from energetic puppies to senior pets who require a gentle touch. I specialize in both dog and cat care. For feline clients, I am meticulous about maintaining fresh litter boxes, stick strictly to feeding schedules, and will always track down a shy cat to ensure they are safe and comfortable before my visit ends. I currently work remotely from home, pet care integrates seamlessly into my daily routine. I am around all day to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks every 2 to 4 hours, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to easily step away for midday neighborhood dog walks or cat drop-in visits within my local Montebello radius without disrupting my routine. I have a fenced yard and my family has dogs to keep ur fur baby company. Your pet’s safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. To ensure a perfect fit, I require a brief, in-person Meet & Greet before confirming any new booking so we can review routines, test keys/entry codes, and introduce ourselves. For Walks/Drop-Ins: I stick to a tight 3-mile service radius to ensure I am always on time and unhurried. For Boarding/Daycare: My home is a secure, clean environment. I accept small and medium dogs (up to 40 lbs) who are fully house-trained.Updates: You will receive detailed Rover Cards with every visit, complete with timed maps, potty logs, and plenty of happy photos!I can’t wait to meet your pets and give them the five-star care they deserve!
“Carrie is fantastic! Punctual, friendly, and kept us updated the entire time with great communication and attention to detail! Most importantly, she was so gentle with our senior dog, who took to her right away. Knowing that our sleepy senior is in such kind hands, brings a sense of calmness to our day. Will definitely book again!”
About: Hi there! My name is Michele, and I understand how important it is to find reliable caretakers you can trust. I approach dogs with care and kindness, and I pay attention. I prioritize following your instructions and making sure your dog is comfortable and safe with me. I have a deep history as a dog owner. My mom had a knack for picking up strays and taking in fosters, so I have been providing dog care my whole life. I was 9 years old when I first helped raise a litter of bottle babies, and dogs of all sizes and breeds were my brothers and sisters as I grew up. I have had the good fortune of having two soul dogs in my lifetime, one of whom recently passed away from lymphoma and its complications. During our two-year cancer battle, I learned a lot about canine nutrition, care for elderly and disabled dogs, and at-home medication processes including oxygen administration. Dogs are some of our best family members. I love all dogs, and I would love to meet yours! I have a flexible schedule each week. I have a preference for walks in the mornings and afternoons, avoiding the hottest temperatures, but can accommodate a wide range of times. For boarding and overnights, I prioritize listening to your instructions in regards to your dog's preferences, habits, and level of training. If your dog will be comfortable having the run of the house, I am comfortable with allowing them to explore my home as they board with me; alternately, if your dog does better in more contained environments, we can set up your crate, pen, etc or limit their range to one area of the house. We have a small, maintained side yard that dogs are welcome in, but no back yard. When entering a client's home, I will behave with the utmost respect, and only enter areas of the home necessary for instructed dog care. For overnight stays at clients' homes, I reserve the discretion to limit my hours depending on any safety concerns, but will not change plans without good faith attempts at communicating with you to find solutions that work for us both.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes and personalities and have experience helping family, friends, and neighbors with their pets. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. I enjoy spending time with dogs, taking them on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medication instructions, and exercise needs. My goal is to provide your dog with a loving, comfortable, and stress-free stay. I’m fully available for Summer Break, Winter break and or Spring Break, and maybe some of the statutory holidays. During normal work days, I’m available on weekends only. My dogs' safety and happiness are my top priority. I provide a safe, cage-free home with a fenced yard that allows them ample play space. I am experienced and can recognize even minor signs of stress or illness in dogs, and I strictly adhere to the feeding and medication schedule you provide. In case of any emergency, I have contingency plans in place and will contact you immediately. I will treat each dog as my own and will be happy to regularly send you updates and photos, giving you peace of mind while you are away.
“Best sitter ever! Olivia is kind, responsive and reliable... And most importantly, my dogs felt comfortable around her. Olivia sent videos and photo updates throughout the evening. This is my new go to person! 😊”
About: What sets me apart is my background as an experienced veterinary technician. I can confidently care for senior pets, administer medications (including injections), recognize early signs of illness, and provide skilled, compassionate care for pets with special medical needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize building trust with both pets and their families through dependable, personalized care. I’m currently providing pet care full-time, which means I have the flexibility to give your furry family member the time, attention, and personalized care they deserve. Whether they need companionship, playtime, medication, or extra TLC, I’m committed to providing compassionate, skilled care while you’re away. When caring for your pet in their own home, I strive to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ll provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, exercise, fresh food and water, medication if needed, and lots of affection. I’ll also keep your home tidy, respect your instructions, and send regular photo and text updates so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.

I have two senior dogs who require special care, and they both have very different needs. Vivian was incredibly attentive, caring, and patient with both of them. She even administered medication to one of my dogs and hand-fed both of them when needed. This was my first time using a dog sitter, so I was definitely nervous and worried about leaving them. Vivian gave me peace of mind and made me feel much more comfortable knowing they were in good hands. I really appreciate how caring and attentive she was, and I would definitely recommend Vivian to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter!
Avery did a great job caring for our animals. They were happy and healthy on our return home and the house looked great. Our pup can present challenges given both the late maturing of her breed and her own quirks, but Avery dealt with them as they came and we appreciate her suggestions on how to help her.
Jovi can be quite particular with whom he is comfortable with, so it was a great sign that he did not bark at Polli at our meet and greet. When she arrived for sitting, he was just fine with her in the apartment and didn't try to bark at her to leave. It is always nice to feel your dog is comfortable when leaving! I was gone for a week and when I got home Jovi was clearly well cared for. Polli did a great job getting new pony tails for him so he could see, the house was clean, and Jovi was in good spirits!
This was my first time using Rover. I was very concerned as my older dog had some health issues arise right before I left. Alvin was amazing. He was constantly advising me about my dogs and any change of normal behavior. He was able to take care of the meds she needed and all was good. I was also surprised my dogs went for walks with him, as I was certain they would not go with someone else. He truly cared that my dogs were healthy including mentally making sure they had activity. He stayed at my house and left it the same condition I left it. I would highly recommended using Alvin and plan to use him again on my next trip. He also took care of watering my plants while I was gone.
Aleena is absolutely wonderful! She recently watched our two senior Chihuahuas, Piggy and Lucy, and we couldn't be happier with the care they received. Since our dogs are older, we are always a bit nervous leaving them, but Aleena made us feel at ease right away. She was incredibly responsive and provided consistent updates and photos, which we truly appreciated. It was clear that they felt completely comfortable around her and really thrived with her company. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and genuinely kind to animals, we highly recommend Aleena. We will definitely be hiring her again!
Kelsey last-minute covered for us for a week when our sitter fell through. She came to meet us at a momemt's notice and our dog immediately took to her. Sje also happens to be a wonderfully kind person. She was so responsive and responsible with our dog and our home. So much so that we asked her to come back for another week! Don't hesitate to book with Kelsey- she's worth it and I promise you won't be disappointed.
Courtney was a fantastic cat sitter. She took wonderful care of her and handled Gaia’s asthma medication with so much patience and confidence, even during those first few days when it can be a bit tricky. It was such a relief knowing Gaia was in calm, capable hands. I’m really grateful for the care and attention Courtney gave her, and I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.
The best gift when you can't take your companions on a trip is to know someone will take care of them and give you a peace of mind. Ashley did. She is amazing and is a great communicator. I left behind a 14 year old blob and a 6 years skittish lab and I was worried about the younger pup. It was the 14 year old senior that kept Ashley up at night. Ashley kept me posted on the situation, we kept the communication open to make sure Hunter is ok. Things happened but the best way to know how awesome your substitute is, is to experience their problem solving ability. Ashley got everything under control. I highly recommend Ashley and would love to get her help again. She is definitely more than 5 stars rating.
Stephanie is a super star sitter! Our dog is sweet but has separation anxiety. Stephanie made her so comfortable that Etta was all smiles in all of her check in photos and videos. This helped us fully enjoy our trip knowing our pup was in great hands. Also, the photos and videos Stephanie sent were so cute, well captioned, and well-timed. I had some detailed instructions and Stephanie followed them all excellently. Her excellent communication and understanding helped manage my own anxieties about leaving Etta at home. She was extremely clean and left our place looking great. Also very reliable, professional, and punctual. My husband and I could not have asked for a better experience and would 100% work with Stephanie again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Monterey Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Monterey Park on Rover is $59.94 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 House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 15,150 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Monterey Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Monterey Park walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Monterey Park maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Monterey Park choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Monterey Park. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
