About: My name is Heidy and I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I’m the current dog mom of an almost 11 year old chihuahua mix named Blue and a 2 year old beagle named Gunner l. I love animal and love caring for them. I worked as a nail salon receptionist , for two years where the dogs were the store mascots. During my time at the salon I feed, walked, played with, and even pet sat them while the owners went on vacation. I can without a doubt say that was my favorite part of the job. I currently I’m going to school for RVT and work night at Trader Joe’s. I am available every day during the day to care for your fur babies while you’re at work. I follow instructions and directions very well. I can care for your pets in your home in a safe and loving manner that would make your pets feel at easy with me.
About: I’m an animal lover and currently work as a veterinary assistant. I have an associate degree in veterinary technology to become an RVT and soon to be a Veterinarian when I’m older. I have a big passion for animals providing love and attentive care. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, happy, and I would love to give your furry babies the same care and attention I give to my own! <3. I’m currently working part time as a vet assistant at my job. Otherwise I am available most of the time. Although some days can change such as dropping my brother off to school in the mornings on Tuesdays and Thursdays. As a veterinary assistant with an associate degree in Veterinary Technology, I understand the importance of making sure a pet feels loved and safe under my care. In fact, I like to put myself in their shoes and think before I do something. Such as if they ever feel scared when meeting me, I’ll let them smell me and get used to my scent before petting them. As a cat owner myself, I know how important it is to provide a loving, stress free environment and follow each pet’s individual needs and routines. I will carefully follow the owner’s instructions, provide updates, and treat every pet with patience, kindness, and care as if they were my own.
“Paula is amazing! She is kind, responsible, and great at communicating. Paula is great with cats! She was able to bring my cat out of his shell on the first day of meeting him (and my cat is extremely shy). I was also updated with pictures, which I greatly appreciated. If you are looking for a caretaker for your fur child Paula is your girl!”
“Second time booking Tyler and second time with no regrets! My cats love Tyler and she genuinely loves them back! Great sitter, follows instructions immaculately, and leaves the home as good as new. Will book Tyler again when we need a sitter! Thanks!!”

I provide a clean, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment. I always keep pets supervised and follow their feeding, walking, medication, and daily routines according to their owner’s instructions.
“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Amanda provided for my cat during the drop-in visit. She stayed for 1 hour and 47 minutes—even though it was only supposed to be a 60 minute visit! That really shows how much she cares. She made sure my cat was fed, had clean water, cleaned the litter box, and spent quality time playing and comforting her. I received thoughtful updates and cute photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and truly dedicated pet sitter!”
About: I’ve spent my whole life having pets at home, from dogs to cats to bunnies, I have endless experience. I’ve volunteered at local animal shelters, raised a puppy and 2 cats of my own, and taken care of pets for other families. I truly love animals and feel they should be comfortable with someone who truly understands them when their owners are gone. I’m working full-time and have 3 pets at home, so my availability varies depending on the week. However, I do work nights Mondays and Wednesdays, which makes me available before 2pm. I live in an apartment with 2 cats and a puppy, so unfortunately I do not have room to bring another animal into the space. However, I would love to come to your place and take care of your pet(s)!

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life, I currently have 2 cats and 1 dog in my household and I was able to successfully acclimate them to one another using patience and positive reinforcement; and the 3 are inseparable now!

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have two 10-year-old cats and two dogs, ages 5 and 3, so I’m very familiar with the daily routines, personalities, and different needs that come with caring for multiple pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, litter box care, basic grooming, and following detailed medication or care instructions. I’m also experienced with older cats and understand the importance of being patient, observant, and attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, or energy level. In addition to my personal pet care experience, I have formal animal handling experience from my scientific research background. I take pet safety seriously and always treat other people’s pets with the same care and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week. I’m used to planning my day around my own pets’ feeding, walking, playtime, and care routines, so pet care is already a regular part of my daily life. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible. Safety and routine are very important to me. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, walking, medication, litter box care, and any special needs. I always keep pets secure during walks and visits, monitor their behavior closely, and make sure doors, gates, leashes, and harnesses are properly secured. I also respect each pet’s personality and give shy or nervous animals the time and space they need to feel comfortable.
About: My very first job was walking dogs. Even at the rebellious age of 12, pets meant everything to me. At first, it was just walks, but as we got to know each other, it became overnights every once in a while, and then all the time! This puppo was full of energy when we met and even until she passed, she had the craziest zoomies, which was always a joy. Pets are our everything, and they deserve all the happiness, love and care that we can provide. And that’s what I plan to do. I’m currently a working actor so most of my days are at home submitting for auditions and if I do book something, I make sure to clear out my schedule. If I end up booking a gig after booking a pet visit or whatever you may need, I will work around you first. If you have trusted me with your pet, that is my first priority. My kitties are indoor kitties, so in order for them to still get their exercise I make sure to play with them every day. Whether it’s a ball, a fish on a stick or the ever elusive laser pointer, I always make it a point to spend time with them.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in South El Monte is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - South 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! ❤️

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
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.
