“Yeti had a lot of fun during his stay visiting with other dogs. Jing was super kind and sweet. She sent updates of Yeti soon after we left to re-assure us that our puppy was adjusting well. We are really thankful.”
“Steven was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. My wife and I always have family house/pet sit when we go out of town, so leaving them with a sitter had us a bit anxious. During the meet and greet, Steven immediately put us at ease with his kindhearted and soft nature which made us confident in his ability to provide excellent care. While we were gone, steven provided updates with pictures every day, and we could see that they were happy, relaxed, and enjoying thier time with him. Steven was also very accommodating as far as drop offs and pick ups. We absolutely plan on entrusting steven with our pups again in the future. Thank you, Steven!”
“Angelica and her daughter are so wonderful! My Brownie apparently was so well behaved but I thank that in part to her being kept so busy 😆 They had nothing but wonderful things to say about her. She gave me photo updates of Brownie so I can rest assured. They did everything that was asked for her routine and lots of love and attention. I highly reccommed her services. Thank you so much again. Definitely will be back.”
“We had to leave our puppy with Eric for almost 10 days and he took good care of him. He frequently sent video updates and replied to my queries right away. Eric is very good with dogs and I could see how my baby was cared for.”
“Joyce was fantastic! She kept me updated frequently, along with pictures. Worked around any special care instructions if needed. Also, very quick responses which stood out the most compared to other sitters. Will definitely be reaching out again when going out of town. Thank you Joyce! Chanel had a great time!”
“Janice was the best! She was so great witn Bear and gave so many updates and videos. It so reassuring to have someone like her and her family care for your pet.”
“This was a long stay for Smokey and he was so well taken care of, it allowed us to really enjoy our trip knowing he was safe and sound. He made himself right at home with Madalyn! She is so responsive and sent pictures of him every day. I can’t thank her enough and we feel so grateful to have found her for our pup!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have had dogs in my life since I was 5 years old. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs, and I genuinely love spending time with them. Over the years, I’ve owned multiple dogs and have experience caring for up to 4 dogs at once. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I currently work from home, so if your dog is staying with me, I’ll be home throughout the day to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. If you’re booking dog walking or drop-in visits, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to stop by reliably and ensure your pet receives the care they need. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac in a townhome with a fully fenced private patio. My home is equipped with exterior security cameras, as well as an indoor camera that overlooks the main living area for added peace of mind. I enjoy taking dogs on walks through my quiet neighborhood, and there’s also a large fenced park nearby for exercise and play. If your dog is crate-trained, I’m happy to accommodate that routine, and I also have a spare room available if they would benefit from having their own quiet space to relax.
“Shu Ting was a wonderful host for my two dogs. She sends photos everyday and I can tell my dogs were happy and comfortable at her place. I am so happy to have found someone that I can trust and will definitely book again.”
“We hadn’t taken an overseas vacation in over five years because it’s always been so hard for us to leave our dogs, and honestly, we struggled to find someone we truly trusted. But after our meet and greet with Janelle and Alvin, I immediately felt at ease and knew our babies would be in great hands. I’m so happy to say that instinct was absolutely right. They took care of our two dogs for two days, and the entire experience was seamless. Janelle was incredible with communication! She sent updates and photos regularly without me ever needing to ask, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Both Janelle and Alvin have such a calm, kind demeanor, and their home is clean, cozy, and clearly a safe space for pets. One of our dogs is usually very anxious and slow to warm up to new people, but he surprised us by opening up to them right away. That alone speaks volumes. I can’t recommend them enough, and we will absolutely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you Janelle and Alvin for taking such good care of our babies!”
“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!”
“Jianle was great. He sent us photos of our dogs throughout the trip. When we needed to extend our travel, he was accommodating and responsive throughout all of it. Highly recommend!”
“Selien was amazing!!! She would send updates often with great pics of our fur baby!! Totally recommend her for your dog sitting needs!! I will definitely ask her to sit for Finn again!!”
“Cathy and Andres were wonderful! I was gone for five days and they took such great care of my dog. They always kept me updated on how my dog was doing. It was a complete load off my mind. They also have a great, sweet dog who kept mine company. Overall, this was a fantastic experience.”
“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.”
“Hallie had a fantastic time playing with other dogs at Joe's; she came home nice and tired. His backyard has high fences/walls (mine's a jumper) and a nice shaded patio for the dogs to hang out. Joe is open and communicative and clearly loves all dogs. He sent photo and video updates and let me know how Hallie was playing, eating, and sleeping while I was away.”
About: I’ve owned all kinds of animals from yellow labs to schnauzers cats and even thoroughbred racehorses! Your pets will be well taken care of and looked after like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my structured daily routine. Because my schedule is predictable and steady, your dog receives consistent attention, regular potty breaks, and structured play throughout the day. I have a spacious home where pets can roam and have enough space to feel free and enjoy their time while you’re away and trust that they’re safe in a caring environment.
“Our five-month-old German Shepherd was in great hands. We felt completely at ease leaving her there, and Shangmei followed all of our instructions carefully. This was the second time she has watched our dog, and once again, the experience was excellent. We truly appreciate the care and attention she provides!”

We had a wonderful experience. Shu Ting took great care of our dogs and cat while we were away, and we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in good hands. Our pets were happy and well cared for when we returned, and we really appreciated the updates and communication throughout their stay. It gave us so much peace of mind being away knowing they were being loved and cared for. We would definitely book again and highly recommend her!
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 August 2026, there are 10,401 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.
