“Eric is very attentive and sent me pictures and videos of my cat each day. He took good care of her and made sure she took her pills each day. I would highly recommend leaving your pets in the care of Eric.”
“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!”
“Jing is the best! She gave us updates about our dog several times a day and sent us videos and pictures. We feel comfortable leaving our dog with her. Our dog seems had lots of fun there. 100% recommend!”
“She was absolutely wonderful with my one-year-old puppy! My pup had a fantastic time, got plenty of playtime, and all her needs were taken care of so I could focus on work with complete peace of mind. She was incredibly empathetic and attentive, especially understanding the needs of a younger pup as well as my older dog. She handled multiple pets with confidence, warmth, and such natural care—almost like a mother. I truly appreciated the updates and loving environment she provided. I would absolutely book with her again anytime I’m in Pasadena. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“I could not recommend Jessica and her husband enough! They came in a clutch when I had a sitter cancel on me last minute right before our nine day trip. I had a great amount of peace knowing my dog was in the best hands. We got plenty of updates and fast communication whenever I would send updates on pick up and drop off. Her location ended being a little further than I thought but it was totally worth the drive and I would easily do it again! Thank you again for taking great care of Tyson for us!”
“My cat is always apprehensive around new people but she was able to open up after a day. They were also able to give her medication which is not easy to do especially with cats”
About: Lived in a multi-dog household for over 15 years providing care to pups of all ages (newborn puppies to seniors). Experienced in puppy care, senior care, medication administration, and rescue pups needing a little extra attention as they're getting adjusted to their new furrever homes. Although I don't personally provide training, I've had experience in going through training for our own pups and can support in maintaining the training that you have already in place. Guests are provided with care full-time. I'm available throughout the week and are generally flexible with pick up and drop off times. Though there may be some slight adjustments to the our daily routine, a general idea of our schedule for boarding consists of.. 6:30am potty break and playtime 7am breakfast and continued playtime 8:30am lounge/nap time Potty breaks every 3-4 hours 12:00pm -2:00pm Afternoon playtime some time during this time frame if the weather permits 5:30pm-7:00pm dinner around this time frame Evening play until 7:30pm-8pm 11:00pm for a final potty break We live in a fenced home that is double gated with a large spacious backyard. Guests are only allowed outside when there is human supervision. Guests are welcome to wrestle and play chase; however, if we do see there is an escalation in energy levels then we do a quick reset and separate guests for several minutes before returning to a lower energy of play behavior.
“Smokey stayed with Madalyn once again and we can’t say enough good things about his stays. She keeps us updated and always remembers his preferences and likes! He is always excited to see her when I drop him off.”
“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+++”
“As always, Baxter had a great time with Philip. Baxter usually was not friendly to other dogs. Philip was able to have him stay calmly with another dog during the stay. He is truly a dog whisperer.”
“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.”
“Janice is amazing! My little frenchie loves her! Left my dog with her twice and on the second time my baby was running to her door that’s how excited she was to comeback to Janice. Also, she takes great pictures and always messages to let me know how my dog is doing. I don’t have enough words to express my gratitude to her for taking care of my baby so well.”
“My wife and I have an 11-year old dog who has high separation anxiety and we have struggled over the years to find someone who could take care of our dog due to his timid nature. We’ve tried friends, family, and various boarding places but there have always been an issue. However, Selien was able to take excellent care of our dog and he even felt comfortable enough to eat around her. It gives us great peace of mind that we have found Selien, someone we can trust with our dog moving forward.”
“Stephanie was awesome, she took Izaiah on walks and outings. He got to socialize with Stephanie’s puppy. She kept constant communication and sent picture updates throughout the time she had him. Would definitely reccommend.”
“Partheng took great care of our two frenchies and we could see that they really enjoyed their time there. We will be booking with him in the future and highly recommend his boarding!”
“Tiffany is very professional and has a high attention to detail. I have a senior dog who has medical issues that require medication and prescription dog food. Tiffany was able to follow all the instructions as well as provide exemplary care. She provided updates daily and pictures which put me at ease. Tiffany is such kind, trustworthy person and clearly loves dogs.”
“Five stars. I couldn’t be happier with the care Jonesy received. Communication was excellent the entire time, and I always felt updated on how she was doing. It’s obvious Jonesy had a great time and was very well cared for. She came home happy, tired, and even learned a few new tricks while she was there. Most importantly, I felt completely confident that she was safe and in good hands. I would absolutely trust her with Jonesy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South El Monte
This is my repeat booking with Eric. He took care of my two furry babies for six nights. Thank you so much for all of the walks. And much appreciation for multiple photos and videos throughout the day. Eric even sent photos and videos late at night before their bed time. My furrry babies were very happy all the time. I had no worries during my trip away from them. I will definitely book again.
Shu Ting continues to be an amazing sitter! This last booking, our flight home was delayed and she was extremely accommodating. Our dog always looks happy and healthy in the check up photos and has the time of her life! This is our 4th time booking and will continue to use her services for as long as possible!
We had such a wonderful experience boarding our sweet Chloe for two nights with Madalyn. From the very first meet and greet, she was incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating with our dogter and schedule. She gave us frequent, detailed updates that truly gave us peace of mind, and it was so clear Chloe was being cared for with so much love and attention. Knowing our senior girl was comfortable and in such good hands meant everything to us. We’re so grateful and would absolutely trust her again in the future. 🤍
Isabel is such a sweetheart and treated our dog like her own. She sent us regular pictures, cuddled with him and took him on walks, and made sure he was fed and happy all weekend. It was like leaving him with family! Highly recommend Isabel for your upcoming trip!
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!

As of July 2026, there are 10,637 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across South 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 South 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 South 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 South 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 South 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 South 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.
