“Where do I begin? Dominique is Absolutely Amazing. She took care of Paris so well went above and beyond took her own walks. Gave her extra treats and extra love. She sent me pictures and videos of Paris and what she was doing throughout the days. I am greatly appreciative of finding her and the quality of care that she gave our little fur baby. I was so thankful and ungrateful for her care that we have already rebooked twice with her for future engagements. Thank you so much, Dominique. We greatly appreciate you and Paris had a ball.”
“I really appreciate Mollie caring for our Teddy and making good judgement on when to walk him and for how long considering the heatwave the city was experiencing. I was also thankful for the updates and pictures throughout his stay. It was obvious Teddy was enjoying his time with Mollie and her family. I highly recommend Mollie!”
“Fantastic dog sitter! She took great care of our two dogs and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout their stay. We loved seeing the pictures and knowing our dogs were in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Gary was very laid back and relaxed about caring for multiple dogs while our pup was with him. He has a spacious backyard and is intentional with feeding. Dillon had a good first experience!”
“Sylvia is excellent with my dogs. We have used her services many times now over the past 2 years. Drop offs and pick ups are always easy, she will accommodate to your schedule. Sylvia has came thru for me on a few last minute reservations and travel delays and is super accommodating. Communication is always quick and she is great with providing updates while your away and distracted on vacation. My dogs always look happy to be there and they seem to love the long walks that Sylvia and her family take them on bc they are walked, happy and Tired when I picked them up.”
“I am thankful Sheila was available on short notice. She doesn’t live far from me. She was very patient with my shy and anxious Havanese boy. I’m happy he was allowed to roam free and sit on furniture just like at home. Although my dog may have been nervous to eat, Sheila did her best to accommodate Paxson. I liked that she had other dogs and a cat. I think this helps Paxson get comfortable and learn the ropes. I appreciate Sheila and her daughter Rhonika for taking great care of Paxson. I will look for her again on the future.”
“Lacey did a great job with our almost 5 year old lab mix. She sent photos and our little Lady came home happy and tired. Will definitely work with Lacey again!”
“Second time booking with Donghae and just like the first time, he has done a wonderful job. I appreciate how communicative he is and also how great he is at taking care of our precious dog. I would 100% book again as needs come up.”
“Great service and communication. Love the photo updates! Her calm and patience during such a difficult time in my life makes me so grateful for an amazing sitter like Rachel.”
“From the moment I arrive to drop off Charly (my dog) Blanca was very welcoming and comforting to myself and Charly. She’s very respectful and thoughtful when asking and answering question about [your] dog’s care and needs. She sends frequent updates with picture and videos just so you can see how your pup is doing. To add to that her house itself is a dogs dream. She has a front and back yard that’s completely sealed off so the dogs have all the room and freedom to move like a dog in his natural freedom. She will definitely be my go to recurring dog sitter and I’d recommend her to anyone.”
“Justin and Athena are absolutely wonderful pet sitters! They took such great care of Chewy and kept me updated with regular messages and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. They are extremely kind, attentive, and you can tell they have years of experience with dogs. They followed instructions perfectly and treated Chewy like their own. Chewy loves seeing them, which says a lot! grateful for the care and attention they give him and would highly recommend Justin and Athena to anyone looking for trustworthy, experienced, and caring pet sitters.”
“So grateful for Selien’s loving and attentive care of Teddy! She discovered and removed a hair in his mouth that was causing him to cough, easing his discomfort and our anxiety!”
“Molly was great! She sent daily updates with numerous pics to let me know how my pup was getting along. I loved that she had several dogs in her care at the time, so that mine could be social and able to play. I felt at such ease knowing that my pup was in kind and caring hands and was able to enjoy my vacation with family, stress-free. I will definitely use Molly in the future and recommend her to any of my friends!”
“Brianna went above and beyond to give our doggie a great experience! She was responsive and very caring. We are truly impressed and appreciated her support. Will recommend her for sure. Thanks Brianna!!”
About: Hi, I’m my name is Anthony, and I have been professionally caring for pets for 15 years. My journey began as a child, but it evolved into a dedicated career where I’ve managed everything from high-energy puppies. I specialize in certain breeds, anything except "pitbulls" and pride myself on maintaining a calm, structured environment for every guest. I do gig work all the time. I would love to make this another part of my gig economy because I love our furry friends I have a big fenced backyard where small to big furry friends can run up and down, they will not get bored here! Promise that!

I had such a great experience with Annette she was incredibly kind, caring and attentive with my dog. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands while I was out of town. She kept me updated throughout the day and sent pictures which helped me feel at ease. It was clear she genuinely cared about his comfort and well-being. I appreciate how responsible and communicative she was throughout my dog’s stay. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, I would absolutely book with her again!
This was my dogs first time boarding and it has been an amazing experience. Blanca took such great care of my dog and kept me updated the entire time which meant a lot because i was nervous for my pup so that made me feel at ease. My dog looked very well taken care of while staying with her. I would definitely book Blanca again and recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in South Gate can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their South Gate 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 Gate.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Gate 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.
