“I can’t recommend Blanca enough! I booked boarding with her and since my pup had never stayed away from family before I also booked a day of doggy day care so he could meet Blanca beforehand. Let me tell you, when he went back for boarding, he was so excited to see her again. She is wonderful about sending updates and lots of photos and videos, it really kept me at ease during my whole trip knowing my pup was not only being looked after but was surrounded by love. I would definitely book Blanca again. 10/10 recommend.”

“I will never leave my dog with anyone, aside from Sheila!! I almost felt like she didn’t want to come back home. Sheila you’re the best!! Thanks a million”

“Exceptional puppy sitter! We are new puppy parents to Leonard, our 4 month old Golden Retriever puppy, and we were so anxious about finding a sitter to help watch him because our puppy wasn’t fully vaccinated yet. As soon as we met Annette our anxieties went away. She is incredibly kind and calming with an energy that just makes you feel like you are leaving your puppy with a family member. She has a big yard which is a perfect for a puppy who is still mastering his potty training skills. Annette was so great about sending me pictures and updates throughout Leonard’s stay. Her and I talked about getting Leonard a slow feeder and she even helped introduce him to one during his stay which is just above and beyond. Our puppy was well taken care of and I am so glad we met Annette!”


“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.”

“Donghae was an amazing, kind, and caring sitter. He kept me constantly updated, took Abby on walks all over LA, and even gave her a new toy and treats to take home. I would absolutely book him again.”

“Excellent care for Rocky as always!!! He's truly happy every single time Savanah cares for him. I feel like he's family too her family. Don't want to leave him anywhere else. Thank you”

“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!”

About: Hello! My name is Dominique. I started working with animals in 2015. Working with dogs at a doggy daycare, moving on to rescues and vet offices then eventually dog training. I have experience using force free, and balanced training. My goal is to provide safe, structured and compassionate care for every pet. Pet care is just as much about the owners and their peace of mind in leaving their companions with me. Whether your companion is a senior with medical needs or an energetic puppy I have the experience and the passion to provide the enrichment, stability and comfort during their stay. For house sitting and drop ins my availability will be Tuesday- Friday 9 A.m-2:30p, and on Sundays and Mondays I'm available 9 A.m- 5 P.m. For hosting a dogs, because I’m currently working on making pet care a full time career through Rover my availability is up to whatever you need. I will only be hosting dogs from the same family or one at a time. In my home I like to have all supplies readily available for any enrichment or training purposes. This includes Toys, leashes, beds/cots, treats/kibble/food, any tools such as prong collars or e-collars if needed (this depends on clients needs/preferences), enrichment puzzles, cleaning supplies and medications for puppies and seniors. The agenda for the day will be structured around the clients and the dogs needs. A walk, training, or simply some companionship while your away. I'm flexible with what you desire and what your dog needs. I’m home most of the day besides stepping out for personal errands or appointments, so rest assured you companion will want for not.
“Hi I'm Christopher Braig and I am a middle school music teacher in South Central and Jazz Musician. I have only been in LA two years and I often go to see my daughters in St. Louis. I must insist on telling this was the best experience we have ever had on Rover bar none. Shardae took the time time to frequently and in detail tell us of how our old man toy poodle Oreo was doing. And she did in such a fun way it made me and girls laugh. Thank you Shardae I will be doing some traveling this summer and we hope you are available. CB”

“Luke is great! He’s watched my 6yr old shihtzu 2x already and has really been flexible with his availability. Luke sent pics everyday and asked good questions to make sure my dog got what he needed during his stay. I was out of the country and the communication was consistent and never failed. I will definitely have my dog stay with Luke again!”

“Molly is awesome! Our dog stayed with her for a week and Molly was so communicative and sent frequent photos and updates throughout. We were able to really enjoy our trip knowing she was in such good hands. Our dog looked like she was having a blast playing with Molly’s sweet dogs and she got so much love and cuddles from Molly.”

“So grateful for Emily and Maple! Emily was great about sending me updates and info on Cookie while I was away. She handled all of my dogs medical info great. My baby is blind and deaf so I really appreciate the updates and love she received. Cookie and Maple got along well and became buds!”

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover and a proud dog mom to two Maltipoos. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I know how important it is to find a safe and loving place for your fur baby while you’re away, whether it’s for a vacation, a weekend getaway, or a busy workday. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and at ease. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve also looked after the pets of friends and coworkers and have even rescued lost dogs in my neighborhood and helped reunite them with their families. I provide daily walks three times a day, and we enjoy playtime outdoors in a shaded area. In the evenings, I like to take the doggies to the lake and the dog park. I’m less than a mile from a beautiful park. Watching the sunset is our favorite. I also send regular photos and updates so you can stay connected while you’re away. Most importantly, I make sure every pet in my care feels happy, safe, loved, and right at home. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends, and your pup will enjoy a consistent routine that includes three daily walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. My goal is to keep your dog’s routine as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else’s care can be difficult because they’re more than just pets, they’re family. That’s why I prioritize safety, communication, and individualized care. I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll treat your fur baby as if they were one of my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and right at home.
“Finny had such a great time with Sherry! He came home happy, tired, and honestly a little heartbroken to leave his new dog friends behind. 🐾 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being loved and cared for like part of the family. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”


“Gary is my go-to sitter for my two precious 4 legged kids. He is so good with them that I cant' ask for more. Kids are well-rested and loved. They have been cared for by Gary for almost two years, and it's like their 2nd home in time to time. Kids are going back again for fun camp at Gary's.”

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!
“Angela D handle my two dogs very well. My older dog Honey was having difficulty and Gigi being younger was would get in her environment but Angela seemed to handle the situation well. Taking them frequent walks calmed them down. She was patience with them which I loved and kept me updated on a daily.”

“Deanna was phenomenal! She helped me when I was in a pickle and needed a dog sitter on very short notice. Not only was she willing, she was incredibly accommodating, kind, and communicated regularly with updates throughout my dog’s stay. I picked up a very happy pup who’s acting like his usual self. I can’t thank Deanna enough!”

“Brittany was great! Our dog stayed with her for a week and a half and she sent constant updates and kept her entertained with plenty of walks, treats, and puzzles!”

We did a meet & greet before I confirmed my Coco’s stay which was great. I could tell Coco immediately felt comfortable there. Annette kept me up to date with photos & videos which made me feel at ease knowing my furry friend was comfortable & enjoying her stay. Definitely, will use 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 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 Gate 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 Gate 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 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.
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 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.
