About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with both dogs and cats has given me experience caring for pets of all sizes, from small breeds to large German Shepherds. I’ve also helped raise puppies, so I’m familiar with the extra patience, attention, and consistency they need. I have experience giving oral medications when needed and don’t mind cleaning up accidents or messes that can happen with pets. I believe every animal has its own personality, so I like to match their energy and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. That means going for a walk, playing fetch, or simply relaxing together, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand how important pets are to their owners, so I’ll always follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a part-time worker and student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care for your pets. My availability is even more open during summer and winter breaks, making me a great option if you’re traveling. Feel free to message me with your dates, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule. As a pet owner myself, I know every pet has unique needs and routines. I believe an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, so I always double-check gates, leashes, doors, and windows to keep pets safe. I’ll follow your care instructions, respect your home, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

About: I’m a patient, caring, and dependable pet sitter who treats every pet like family. I understand that each pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to make them feel safe and comfortable. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens who need playtime and consistency to senior pets who may need a gentler pace and extra attention. I follow feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely while making sure your pet gets plenty of love and companionship.

Anahis took great care of my furbaby. I had to leave town on an emergency and she was quick to respond and meet with me prior. She provided picture updates and was attentive to bring up any concerns to me. She was also kind enough to feed my desert tortoises. I would book check-ins with her again!

About: 23 years of experience, but dogs have always been a part of my life. Family I'd visit growing up and still visit have had 10 dogs featuring 8 different breeds, from Chihuahuas to Pitbulls. I've raised and basic-trained 3 puppy rescues since 2001, saw 2 of them to seniority (Chihuahua and Jack Russel-Chihuahua mix), and raised the most recent (Pug) until 2024 when I blessed close family members with her because they have a huge yard she adores and want her to be happy. I can't wait to fill this place with the vibrant energy only dogs can give! We can talk price adjustment after the first booking 😉❤️ I'm currently in between jobs so I'd be able to give your furbaby all the attention they need. I just need a day's heads up to get a few things sorted and we're all set! Your place or my place? I can go either way! This townhome has a patio your furbaby can sunbathe in with a breeze and shade, or we can keep them inside nice and cool/warm if the weather isn't friendly. If they're less adventurous, I can keep them company at your place where they'd feel more at home.

About: I have had a passion for caring for animals since I was a child! I have volunteered at a veterinarian’s office and a wetland animal rehabilitation center, and was in an animal protection club in college. I love animals, and treat them as my own family. I am currently a college student, so I will have a set schedule always! I will be free most weekends, and some week days depending on classes. I will be free most nights, and am willing to work on homework while watching your fur-babies. I have one cat in my home, and I keep her safe by keeping dangerous items out of reach, and keeping her environment safe. I am aware that animals can get into things they shouldn’t, but it is all about the environment you put them in. I will keep a close watch on what your animal is doing, and what environment they are in.

About: For years, I've cared for my own dogs and provided pet sitting and house sitting for family and friends. Through those experiences, I've learned how important it is to keep pets comfortable by following their routines and giving them plenty of attention and affection. In addition to handling dogs, I also have experience with cats, birds, and reptiles, so I'm comfortable looking after a variety of pets and their unique needs. I'm flexible, reliable, and committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. I'm available every day from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, so it will be easy to fit in pet visits and other quick pet services. I understand that every pet and family has different scheduling needs, so I'm happy to be flexible whenever possible. My goal is to provide dependable care that works best for you while ensuring your pet receives the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priority. I will carefully follow your instructions and respect your house rules, while keeping your pet's daily routine to help them feel secure when you're away. I also make sure the environment stays clean, safe, and free of anything that could be a potential risk for me and your pet. Whether it's double-checking that doors and gates are secure, keeping food and belongings where they should be, or maintaining a tidy space, I'll care for your home and your pet with the same attention and respect I would my own.

About: If there’s one thing I can do , it’s take care of pets. I’ve been surrounded by different animals since a young girl and have experienced so many different personalities on each animal. I can assure you that your baby will be taken care of by any means necessary. They deserve the world and more. All they’ve done is love us and we have to reciprocate. I am working part time at the moment so I will be updating availability as soon as possible. Ofcourse any questions or requests will be welcome! I already have 1 senior dog named Ginger. She’s so chill I hang out with her all day when I’m not at work. As I’ve stated, different dogs need different attention. No one knows their dog better than their owner so respecting boundaries and acknowledging wants will be taken into account. Some dogs have anxiety aww! So communication is something I want going into taking care of a new baby.

About: Hi everyone! I’m excited to be back on Rover after taking a break in 2025 🤍 I have experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, both in my home and in clients’ homes. As I return, I’ll be focusing on dachshunds and small breed dogs 🐾 I now have my own pup, Zuko, so I do require a meet-and-greet before booking to make sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and gets along well. During their stay, your pup will also have lots of fun playing and spending time with Zuko! I provide plenty of communication and photo updates so you can always feel connected and at ease while your dog is with me. Your pup will be treated like family—with lots of love, attention, and a cozy, clean space. I can’t wait to meet your pups! 🐶✨ I have experience caring for dogs at all life stages, including senior care and administering medications (pills and liquids) with patience and care. I’ve also cared for extremely low-maintenance dogs who prefer to lounge, follow me around, or stay home when instructed by their owners, always adapting to each dog’s individual needs and personality. With my own dog, I follow a structured daily routine that includes scheduled meals with measured portions, daily supplements, regular brushing, and consistent exercise through walks and outings. I also incorporate mental enrichment through toys, lick mats, and puzzle feeders. This is the same level of care and attention I bring to every dog in my care, and I look forward to incorporating these fun, enriching activities during their stay with me 🐾 For safety and trust, my home has a small fenced backyard with high fencing, as well as a gated front area for added security. I always follow each owner’s instructions closely and respect every dog’s individual routine. Whether you prefer your dog to stay indoors, go on walks, or follow a specific schedule, I will adjust accordingly to meet their needs. I also prioritize communication and transparency. You can expect consistent updates and photos throughout your dog’s stay, and I always tailor communication to your preference—whether that’s frequent check-ins, every few hours, or a daily summary. At minimum, you will receive daily communication so you always feel connected and at ease while your pup is with me 🐾

About: I have had many dogs over the years that I not only primarily took care of but trained as well. I love all dogs and am going into the veterinary field because of my love and passion for our best friends. I believe that our best friends are our top priorities because on days where we have nothing left to give they give us the energy we need to keep going. I take care of all dogs the way I take care of my own. I am currently attending school, so I have lots of down time which allows me to properly take care of my own pets as well as others! I have a two story home and a friendly baby who loves other dogs especially puppies. I also live across from a huge park that has a very nice dog park and many of my own fur babies friends.

About: I will admire there pets the way they do. I know what it takes as an pet owner to make sure your furry friend is cared for in the best way! I’m currently working remotely from home. I work according to my own hours. This makes it easy for me to take frequent breaks for walks, plays in the park, etc. I have a fenced front and back yard. There’s a park near my house where I can take dogs for a walk. If I were to care for an animal in someone else’s home I would treat it with the utmost respect and care as if it were my own.

Just got home and we were received by healthy happy dogs and cat. Brianna did a wonderful job of taking care of our three furry babies. She followed their/our routine down to the last word. Very efficient but mostly kind and patient with our furry babies. Definitely would book with her again. 5 stars all the way.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in South Gate on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 9,565 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across South Gate. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Gate. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
