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.

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.

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.

I’m available Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 5 PM for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your pets the attention and care they deserve. I enjoy taking dogs on daily walks and making sure they stay happy, active, and comfortable.

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: 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: I’ve taken care of my own pets since I was 5 and have always loved any animal. Anyone that knows me can tell you how much I love animals and how much they love me. During the weekdays I’m currently available for any care before 1:30 pm and my weekends are pretty flexible depending on your needs. I’m pretty flexible on what care needs go be done and am open to taking about many options. I make sure to follow by the rules that are set by the client, whether it is taking them out x amount of times, playing with them. My usual sense of care is being around them constantly keeping an eye on them and being aware of their needs.

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 21,045 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across South Gate. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a South Gate stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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
  • 94% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
