About: I love animals in general and spoil my not so little cat at home! I have experience taking care of my cat such as feeding, cleaning food and water bowls, scooping the litter box, and brushing hair and teeth. I am patient and optimistic to meet new pets and people, being naturally adaptive to dynamic situations and quick to think on my feet as an aspiring healthcare provider. I would love to be your pets new best friend and spoil them (to your liking)! I am free generally at any time of day! Please give me a notice preferably a day before so that I can plan for the rest of my day. I am currently settling in with a part-time job and will update my schedule as soon as my work schedule becomes more stable. I have a fenced backyard and a two-story house that is calm and quiet in environment! My cat is an indoor cat and will be hanging around if your pet comes to my home. We live with my parents who are more present at home in the evenings after 7pm. At your home, I will care for your pet(s) at your preferences and do all that you think is best for your pet's care if that includes playtime and walking as well!
About: I have 3 cats of my own which I care for on my own. I’ve been around pets since I was very little and can ensure that I’ll care for your pet as I do my own. :) I’m currently a student, but have a pretty flexible schedule! I’m very understanding and can assure you that I will always make sure to communicate everything and provide the best care for your pet! I’m pretty accustomed to pet behaviors and will confidently be able to navigate in any situation to make sure that your pet gets the love and care they need while you’re away!
“Jacqueline did a great job with Xena. She walked her and took photos and even hung out with my kitties. She is very reliable and caring. I look forward to booking her again. Thank you Jac!!! ♡”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of pets, including cats, dogs, bunnies, hamsters, and chickens.🐾 I truly treat every pet as if they were my own. Wether your pet needs calm and gentle or an energetic playmate. I have 2 cats Oreo and Tiger that are out door cats sometimes go inside. They are friendly especially the older one. Im a teenager trying to make money while doing something I'm passionate about. I’m excited to meet your fur baby and give them the love and care they deserve!

About: I have loved animals ever since I was a kid! From cats and dogs to even reptiles and birds, I love them all. I would be honored to care for your furry loved ones! I am currently a student with a very flexible schedule. I would be more than happy to accommodate the needs of you and your babies! In my client’s home, I am very detail oriented and respectful of any rules and guidelines. I take pet care very seriously, and I make sure to keep in touch.
About: I grew up with a Great Dane who I cared for from childhood until she passed, and she’s the reason I’ve loved pets my whole life. Since then, I’ve helped take care of family and friends’ dogs of all sizes. Today I have an 11-year-old chihuahua (Camila) who is healthy, loved, and very used to having little pups around and a 5-year-old Weimaraner (Lolo) who was literally ‘trained’ by Camila to be gentle and respectful with small dogs. We also have a 16-month-old baby who has learned to be calm, gentle, and loving with pets. Your pup will be in a loving, kind, safe, and experienced home. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give consistent attention and supervision to your pup throughout the day. My son is in daycare during daytime hours, so the home stays calm, quiet, and perfect for small dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a fenced front yard where dogs can safely explore under my supervision. I only care for a small number of pups at a time to keep the environment calm and safe. My two pups are gentle, respectful of small breeds, and all interactions are always supervised. I can also separate or crate dogs if needed to match their routine.
“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”

I started my pet/kid sitting job at age 9, I’m 27 now. Im a mom to a little angel in heaven and now want to focus my time and love on others babies. I’ve been an animal lover since I can remember and to this day I love caring for them as if they were my own. I have an amazing dog named Nala who I rescued and she’s amazing with other dogs. She loves to play and making new friends everywhere she goes. I feel like she would definitely benefit from my dog sitting as well because she will have endless friendships and fun too . I also have experience with dog aggressive animals/ shy/ or animals who prefer to be alone so I don’t mind separating my dog from yours. I have a pretty big house and backyard/ front yard so everyone will be happy and have their space. I will always assure they do 🤍 I’m currently working part time from home so I’ve been having some extra time to myself. I want to fill it with joy , happiness and adventure and what better way of doing that than hanging out with peoples fur babies for the day. I have a fenced front and backyard, two beautiful and respectful dogs. I love doing playtime and interactive games that help keeps their brains busy as well. I will also give them so much pets and love till you get back so they won’t feel lonely and miss you.

Right now I am available all day Saturday and Sunday I will introduce myself to the pets and will play with them until they are fully comfortable. I will use your pets favorite toys and treats to gain their trust.
“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!”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities, routines, and care needs. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, dog walking, playtime, and routine medication support. I also have experience with senior pets, shy cats, anxious dogs, and pets that need a calmer, more patient approach. I understand the importance of following instructions closely, watching for changes in behavior, and keeping owners updated during each visit. For medication care, I can assist with routine owner-directed medication such as pills, liquid medication, eye drops, ear drops, and topical medication. Written instructions are required so I can follow your pet’s normal care routine accurately. I offer drop-in visits and dog walking by appointment. My schedule may vary depending on location and existing bookings, but I do my best to keep visits consistent with your pet’s normal routine. For first-time clients, I prefer a meet-and-greet before confirming the booking so I can learn your pet’s routine, feeding instructions, medication needs, behavior notes, and home access instructions. For pets with medication needs, please provide clear written instructions in advance, including medication name, dosage, timing, and what to do if your pet refuses the medication. Safety and trust are very important to me. I follow owner instructions carefully, keep dogs leashed during walks, use your preferred walking route when provided, check doors and gates before leaving, and provide clear visit updates with photos. During each visit, I make sure food and water are refreshed, potty or litter box needs are handled, and your pet’s area is left clean and secure. I also pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything that seems unusual, and I will update you right away if I notice a concern. I only provide drop-in visits and dog walking at the pet owner’s home. I do not offer boarding or daycare, so pets remain in their own familiar environment.
About: I enjoy spending time caring for animals. I have grown up around 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: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with a wide variety of pets. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life so I am comfortable caring for animals with different personalities. I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated so they always feel connected and reassured! I currently work a part time job in the afternoon from 3pm - 6pm anytime before 3 and after 6 I am available as well as weekends if needed! I care for pets either in my home or in the client’s home by following their regular routine, providing fresh food and water, daily walks or playtime, and lots of attention. I keep the environment clean and safe, give updates after each visit, and make sure every pet feels comfortable and loved while their owner is away!
“Fantastic sitter for our Maine coon cat. Very attentive to all details, experienced in animal care and so very flexible. Everything you’d want in a pet sitter! Thank you so much Hayley!”
“Alex took great care of my young cat while I was away! She did drop in visits a couple times a day for about 5 days! You can tell Alex takes pride in her work, she let my cat build a relationship on his terms and had earned his trust and played toward the end of the visits! This was my first time using Rover but Alex made me feel so at ease leaving my cat alone! I can’t thank her enough for her terrific care while I was on vacation!”
“Chris was great. Never felt so comfortable that a sitter was taking good care of my cats. She sent me detailed updates, played with them, and cleaned before I got back. Definitely going to use her for all my future trips:)”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life (I am 25 years old)! I’ve had the responsibilities of picking up after my pets, walking them, feeding them, and bathing them for about as long as I can remember! I am a dedicated physical therapy student at USC and I love being around animals since it relieves my stress. I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats, and I have so much love for all 3 of them! I will be more than happy to care for your pets with the same love and respect that I treat mine with! I work about 30 hours per week, I have Wednesdays off along with weekends. I sometimes have Fridays off as well. When I’m home, I love watching/walking dogs! When I watch pets at my home, I typically keep them in a separate room from my dogs, because I know it could be very stressful for the pets. When I go to a clients home, I make sure to be very respectful of the home. I pick up after myself and the pets, and I follow all of the instructions that the owner leaves for me.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - South El Monte
Jacqueline did an excellent job caring for my cats while I was out of town. Her calm and quiet demeanor was very helpful for the comfort of my cats, and I felt confident in my choice to have her as my cat sitter when the more skittish of my two cats did not run and hide when she first met him. She sent me many wonderful pictures of her drop in visits with them, which included engaging play time, and I could tell day by day they were adjusting well to her presence, even excited for her to arrive. The cats and I are satisfied by the care she provided, and I look forward to connecting with Jacqueline again for future trips.
She has gone above and beyond my expectations! My 3 kitties are super shy and hard to come out of their shell. Sahirah has managed to get them to be comfortable with her in 2 days! She has provided a lot of updates and has been helpful with things as they arise!

As of July 2026, there are 9,794 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across South El Monte. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
