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 love and care about all animals so much. I’m available almost 24/7. I’ve had animals all my life, and connect really well with every animal I’ve met. I enjoy playing and hanging out with dogs and cats the most. I even taught my cat how to do a bunch of tricks. I dogsit and housesit for my aunt ALL the time. Her dog Bandit is super energetic and loves to play fetch all time. He doesnt know his own strength sometimes and knocks me down, but he is super sweet and I love hanging out with him so much! I am available almost 24/7. I am able to dog walk/ cat sit for how ever long needed! I graduated from high school and want to have something to be able to do that involves animals! I think this will be an awesome opportunity for me and will give me more experience with animals! Right now I have 3 cats at home and I’m taking care of 2 strays. I love hanging out with them all the time and they always come for kisses and cuddles. I play with all my animals all the time and love them so so much! :)
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: I’ve been taking care of pets for around 6 years, mostly through caring for my own dog. I’ve also helped care for both dogs and cats for friends and family. I’ve loved animals, especially dogs and cats, all my life, and I’ve spent a lot of time learning about them, including how they behave, what they enjoy, what makes them comfortable, etc. I’m patient, gentle, and I truly enjoy being around animals. I always do my best to make them feel safe, happy, and loved, because they deserve nothing less. Whether it’s walks, meals, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure every pet feels cared for and appreciated like part of the family. I’m a college student and work part-time, but I can be flexible mornings, afternoons, evenings, nights, and weekends. I’m happy to check in, walk, or spend time with your pet, and I’ll follow any routine they’re used to! I’m unable to care for dogs in my home because my dog gets nervous around other dogs, and I want to keep all pets safe and comfortable. However, I’m very careful and respectful when caring for pets in your home. I follow your instructions closely, stick to your routines and house rules, keep the environment clean and calm, and ensure your pet feels secure and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they get plenty of fresh water, exercise, and affection.
“It was my first time using Rover and was a bit nervous. Fernando was great! They communicated with me before, during and after the walk. They provided pictures. I could tell my doggies were well taken care of. The over all experience was very good.”
About: I've been told many times that my childhood seems like I grew up in a zoo! I have a deep love for animals and have learned love and respect by caring for them since I was a child. I’ve raised puppies and kittens to senior dogs and cats. I’ve lived with a big flock of pigeons a few years of my childhood as well. I am passionate for the outdoors and I'm a big foodie. My goal is to share all of the above with the family members that I care for. I am grateful to have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available at all times of the day almost every day. I am organized and have a neat calendar with all walks, sitting, and tasks for the day. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog and incredibly chill cat to keep your pet company. They will be entertained and have space to play, rest and sleep. I take all dogs on at least two walks a day and more for high energy breeds at request.
About: My neighborhood was teeming with pets, ranging from the classic dogs and cats to even guinea pigs. I've got to know how to take care of puppies, felines, and little rodents, too! I also have a dog and a cat of my own! Currently working part-time and in High school, with summer coming around, I'll have more time. Weekdays 4 pm after, and weekends anytime. My schedule is pretty open on holidays, too! Things in easily accessible areas will be hidden, food like chocolate or items like sharp knives will not be present. I'll make sure your pet will have a full belly and happy smiles.
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was little. I had my own dog during elementary school, and some of my best memories are from spending time playing and just quietly sitting with her. That early bond taught me how to be calm, gentle, and steady around dogs of different ages and personalities. While I’m not currently living with a cat or dog, I’ve continued to care for other animals in my daily life. I keep betta fish and have spent time training them to respond to signals and follow my finger. Building trust with a fish may sound unexpected, but it has been a quiet and fascinating experience. I also care for a crested gecko, which requires consistency, patience, and close attention. These animals have taught me to stay observant and mindful of the unique needs of each individual. I’ve also helped friends take care of their dogs by feeding them, going on walks, and spending time with them when needed. Some dogs are shy and prefer a slower approach, while others are playful and full of energy. I try to meet each one where they are and interact with them in a way that makes them feel safe and understood. During visits or walks, I follow instructions carefully and watch closely for any signs of stress or discomfort. I make sure they have clean water, follow their routine, and always send photo updates so you can feel reassured while you are away. My goal is to create a calm and trusting experience for both you and your dog. I speak both English and Mandarin, so feel free to reach out in either language. It’s summer now, and I’ve just transferred to UCLA for the upcoming school year. Since I’m currently on break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I’m hoping to do something meaningful with my time while saving up for school expenses. I truly enjoy being around animals and would love to spend this summer helping care for yours. When caring for pets in someone’s home, I always respect the space and follow the owner’s instructions closely. I understand that every pet and household is different, so I take time to observe how the pet reacts and adjust my approach accordingly. I’m gentle and patient, especially with shy animals, and I make sure they feel calm and safe during each visit. I also send timely updates so you know how your pet is doing and can feel at ease even when you're not home.
About: I currently have two dogs that are my absolute world. They are currently 9 and 13! I would like to be active and walk more pets if possible! I currently work full time and unfortunately do not walk enough. I would like to walk as my exercise and take some pets out too! My dogs are quite a bit older now as they do not walk as far and long but they do get their daily sunshine walks and indoor play time. I will always make sure the pets have enough food, water and snacks. I tend to make sure my dogs get enough scratches and pets daily. I like to make sure that dogs are aware that they are loved and taken care of.
About: I bring energy, love, and patience to every walk and visit. Whether it’s exercise, cuddles, or companionship, I make sure every pup feels happy and cared for. I work Tuesday through Friday in the morning, but I work close enough to pop in, and check on my furry friend(s) during my lunch. Hello 😊 I provide a safe, loving environment with a fenced yard area, supervised play, awesome companionship, treats and crate options if needed. I can also provide you with time stamped videos, and pictures of our adventures together.
About: I’ve fostered and volunteered at many animal shelters over the years, and I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family whenever they travel. I’m very comfortable around all kinds of animals, and I know how important it is to feel like your pet is in good hands.

I have a large, fully fenced backyard that offers plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and enjoy the outdoors safely. Pets are always supervised while outside to ensure their safety and comfort at all times. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication, and bedtime rituals, to help them feel at home. I offer plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they want them!), along with quiet spots for rest and alone time when needed. Whether they’re here for a short stay or a longer vacation, I make sure every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well cared for every step of the way. IMPORTANT NOTE: - Please let me know your fur babies temperament. - To give each pet the attention, comfort, and calm environment they deserve, I only board pets from one family at a time. This means your pets will never have to share their space with unfamiliar animals, reducing stress and allowing me to fully focus on their individual needs. Whether your pets are playful, shy, or needs special care, I’m able to tailor their stay and provide a safe, peaceful, and loving home away from home just for them.
About: I genuinely love animals and I treat them as if they were my own. I make sure each pet gets personalized care whether that means longer walks, extra playtime, and more! I currently have a hybrid schedule which gives me flexibility to be more available.

“Tanner is very sweet. He was very patient with our dog on getting comfortable with him. He went above and beyond. Even the family feels comfortable with Tanner taking care of our fur baby! He is the best and we will definitely keep working with him.”

About: I interned/volunteered at animal hospitals for 2 years (Rosemead Animal Hospital, Cote Animal Hospital). I also volunteered at local animal shelters since 2017. I used to live with a energetic husky girl for 2 years, she is in SF now! I am working fully remote at home. Will have time on weekdays and sometimes weekends to sit or walk them. Can do boarding on weekdays too. I have a fenced yard and no other pets in the house. I will have time to interact and walk them during the day.

I grew up in a dog-loving household—my father breeds English Bulldogs, and I’ve helped care for litters of puppies, from feeding to early socialization. I’ve also worked with more reactive dogs, including a pit bull who required patience, structure, and basic leash training. In addition to at-home care, I assist my mother, who is a part-time pet sitter. Together, we’ve provided in-home visits that include light grooming, brushing, cleanup, and keeping pets calm and happy while their owners are away. I’m confident with basic obedience training like sit, stay, and down, and I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and individual needs.

South El Monte dog parents share their Rover experiences
Exactly what I needed! Anyone that is even bothering to come on this app/site definitely cares a lot about their fur babies. If that's the case, of course Trust and confidence in your Rover partner makes all the difference in the world. I was so fortunate to have found Beverly last second. She was incredibly communicative throughout my entire process and worked around my schedule and timing. The biggest thing for me was that I was going overseas so I definitely was stressed out and she made me feel extra relieved by sending plenty of pictures and keeping in contact whenever needed. She's the one! Give her a shot if you're near!

Zooey did a great job of handling my sweet but stubborn dog on walks. He's very reluctant to leave the house with strangers, but she took the time to make sure he was comfortable and didn't rush him to walk farther than he wanted. Punctual, reliable, and would definitely book again!

Yuval was INCREDIBLE with our dog, Benji. She really took the time to get to know him and really leaned into his interests and needs. Some days he needed a more of a walk and other days he needed playtime or cuddles, and she gave him what he needed. She also gave very detailed daily updates and tons of photos. It really felt like she treated Benji as her own and we will forever be grateful to her for that. Knowing Benji was with someone who really cared made being away from him so much less painful. I would highly recommend her services, especially if your dog has a big personality like Benji does.

I’ve had such a wonderful experience with Evonnie! She’s been incredibly sweet and attentive to Bori from day one. She even came a little early just to spend some time bonding with Bori before the walk—which meant a lot to me and clearly made Bori more comfortable too. Even when I gave her a long list of instructions (which I know can be a bit much!), she handled everything with patience, kindness, and total flexibility. You can really tell she cares—not just about doing the job right, but about making sure your pup feels safe and happy. She’s reliable, communicative, and has a naturally calm and caring presence. I feel totally at ease knowing Bori is in her hands 🩵🐾
