This was our first experience using Rover and Alex did not disappoint! When we needed a last minute sitter for our precious kitty, she was quick to respond and arrange a meeting the same day. We were immediately put at ease with her knowledge as a vet tech and clear love for animals. From the beginning, Alex was professional, thoughtful, and warm. During our trip, she sent detailed summaries of her visit and went above and beyond to care for our sweet girl. It’s no surprised our Eevee warmed up to her so quickly! We’re so impressed with Alex and would definitely book her again! :)

About: Senior cat mom skilled at managing: hijinks, special diets & administering medication (oral/topical)*! I treat all fur babies with the same love & meticulous attention I give my own 🐱🐶 It can be nervewracking being away from your pet, but not to worry — I give LOTS of updates & always confirm before doing anything outside of your care instructions. $20 off 1st booking: KATHYV57281 (even if not with me! 🤗) *I am not trained in administering injectable medication. Therefore, I only offer oral and topical med admin; I will never risk your pet’s safety just to make a bit of extra money. Thank you for understanding! 💛 I work 100% remote in SGV, so I’m able to housesit anywhere with a strong internet connection. I love taking midday breaks to come dote on your pets ❤️ Same-day Saturday & Sunday drop in visits available upon request. I’m all about keeping your pets safe and happy. At home, I double-check doors, windows, & all other potential escape routes to prevent escape acts and keep curious pets out of tricky spots. On walks, I use secure gear, avoid hazards like hot pavement or busy areas, and always watch for stress or discomfort. After I take your pet back home, I always do a perimeter scan for toxic flowers, food, and choking hazards to ensure your pet will remain safe even after I leave. If any issues arise, you will be the first to know — I will leave a detailed text, call, and voicemail along with immediately reporting them to Rover.

About: Hi! My name is Jing, and I’m so excited to care for your furry family members while you’re away 💕 I live with my family in a house with a fully fenced front yard and a safe small backyard, perfect for dogs to relax and play. Even better, there is a park just a 1-minute walk away, making daily walks very convenient and enjoyable for the dogs. 🐾 My Care Style I’m a patient and loving home-style caregiver, and I treat every dog who stays with me like part of my own family. 🐕 Every day, I provide at least: • 2 outdoor walks • 2 play sessions in the front/back yard • Activity levels adjusted based on each dog’s age and energy 🧠 In my home, I also have: • Snuffle mats • Puzzle toys • Various interactive toys All toys are cleaned and sanitized regularly so dogs can play safely and happily. 🐾 About Crate Use I personally do not encourage long-term crate confinement, and I will never place a dog in a crate without the owner’s permission. I prefer to let dogs move freely and safely in the home so they can feel relaxed and comfortable. However, if your dog is used to crate time or needs a crate for safety, rest, or training purposes, 👉 I’m happy to provide a crate or use one you bring, as long as this is discussed and approved in advance. 🏡 Cleanliness & Safety Cleanliness and safety are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment every day so your dog can feel at home and at ease. 🍓 Optional Add-On Services (Additional Fee) If requested in advance, I can also offer the following extra services: • 🦷 Teeth cleaning care • 🍎 Fruit & yogurt treats (only with your permission and if there are no allergies) • 🍗 Homemade fresh food service: I can prepare simple, healthy homemade meals based on your instructions (ingredients, portions, and allergies must be discussed in advance) ❤️ My Philosophy I truly enjoy spending time with pets and deeply value the trust owners place in me. My goal is simple: 👉 For every dog to feel safe, happy, and well cared for while staying with me. I look forward to meeting your furry friend soon 🐾💕 — Jing 🐶 A Typical Day in My Care Every pup in my home enjoys a warm, structured, and loving routine: 🌞 Morning – We start the day with a refreshing walk at the park just a minute from my house, followed by breakfast and a little playtime in the yard. 🌤️ Midday – After a cuddle or brushing session, we’ll head out again for another walk (unless it’s extremely hot—then we’ll keep it short and stay cool indoors with the AC on). 🌿 Afternoon – Free time to nap, play with toys, or just relax in a cozy corner. I’m always home, so your pup is never left alone. If they enjoy company, I’ll engage them with gentle play and lots of love. 🌆 Evening – Another walk before dinner, followed by more family time together. On weekends, I love taking dogs for a bigger park outing, so they can explore, sniff, and meet new friends. 🌙 Night – After a final potty break in the yard, your pup can settle down for a calm and restful night. I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their chosen sleeping spot. ✨ Throughout the day, I’ll send you updates with photos or videos, so you can feel close and reassured while your pup enjoys their “home away from home.” 🏡 A Safe & Trustworthy Home for Your Pup Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Our home has a secure fenced yard and a peaceful garden, where pups can play freely without worry. Indoors, the environment is calm, clean, and air-conditioned on hot days, so your furry friend will always feel cool and comfortable. Because I’m home full-time, your dog will never be left alone. I watch over them throughout the day—whether they’re napping, playing, or enjoying time outside. Every pup gets gentle supervision and loving care, so you can relax knowing they are safe and happy. I treat every dog like family, providing both freedom and structure. With daily walks, plenty of cuddle time, and consistent updates for you, you can fully trust that your pup is in a secure, loving, and reliable home. ❤️

About: I grew up with a Great Dane who I cared for from childhood until she passed, and she’s the reason I’ve loved pets my whole life. Since then, I’ve helped take care of family and friends’ dogs of all sizes. Today I have an 11-year-old chihuahua (Camila) who is healthy, loved, and very used to having little pups around and a 5-year-old Weimaraner (Lolo) who was literally ‘trained’ by Camila to be gentle and respectful with small dogs. We also have a 16-month-old baby who has learned to be calm, gentle, and loving with pets. Your pup will be in a loving, kind, safe, and experienced home. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give consistent attention and supervision to your pup throughout the day. My son is in daycare during daytime hours, so the home stays calm, quiet, and perfect for small dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a fenced front yard where dogs can safely explore under my supervision. I only care for a small number of pups at a time to keep the environment calm and safe. My two pups are gentle, respectful of small breeds, and all interactions are always supervised. I can also separate or crate dogs if needed to match their routine.

About: I grew up with dogs and am an all-around animal lover. I’ve been pet-sitting for the past 5 years. I’m doting, consistent with walks, schedules, and playtime, and very clean and neat. I am about to start grad school, and will have free time when I am not in classes to walk and care for pets! I love being active, and am happy to go on meandering walks with lots of sniffing stops, fast walks/runs, and everything in between! I treat pets with lots of care, love, and attention. I am good at keeping their routines, giving lots of playtime and/or structure. I am very respectful of other’s homes. I will keep things neat and tidy.

Christina took care of our kitties for 8 days while we were away on vacation. I can not begin to explain how attentive, caring and kind she was. She went out of her way to make sure our cats were happy and was super communicative throughout the whole process. During her meet and greet visit, she listened carefully to our instructions and asked many questions. Which reassured me that I was leaving my cats in capable and loving hands. Without a doubt I will be contacting Christina for my future trips. Thank you for everything.

Jacqueline did an excellent job caring for my cats while I was out of town. Her calm and quiet demeanor was very helpful for the comfort of my cats, and I felt confident in my choice to have her as my cat sitter when the more skittish of my two cats did not run and hide when she first met him. She sent me many wonderful pictures of her drop in visits with them, which included engaging play time, and I could tell day by day they were adjusting well to her presence, even excited for her to arrive. The cats and I are satisfied by the care she provided, and I look forward to connecting with Jacqueline again for future trips.

Rose was so lovely to work with! This was our first time leaving the kitties alone so we were a bit nervous, especially because we were going to be gone for a good chunk of time. But Rose was so kind and comforting and confident, and made sure to send us lots of pictures and updates during each of her visits. She took care of everything even with the kitties deciding to cough up some hairballs for her 😅 the kitties were very happy and we’ll be sure to book Rose again if we need a cat sitter in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Temple City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Temple City on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 9,612 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Temple City. 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 Temple City. 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.
