About: ***UPDATE! Opening my profile up to new clients again after about a year, as I have some openings! Feel free to reach out with inquiries!*** I have had dogs my entire life, and what can I say — I just love them. I have cared for dogs for 20 years, and even spent a few years training dogs at the American Kennel Club (AKC). I rescued my own pup nearly 10 years ago, and rescued my cat ~5 years ago now-- and have since been equally obsessed with felines. They’re incredibly different animals, with their own way of looking at the world, both of which I respect. Over the years, I have walked and cared for many family's, friends’ and colleagues' dogs and cats of all ages, before opening my network to my neighborhood. ***Key Notes: - Currently, I am open for dog walking and dog/cat drop-ins. Please see all service options (including add-ons) in my profile and feel free to reach out with questions! - For 60-minute walks, depending on location, weather and your comfort level, I can take your pup(s) for a hike or trail-run nearby! - I have a range of experience, from energetic and exercise-craving dogs to elderly pups who require gentle care and a patient, slower speed. I love providing care for either side of the spectrum, and all in between. The bottom line is: the safety of your dog/dogs is my top priority. I know how it is. I’ve used Rover and other services for my dog and cat, and I understand how it feels to entrust another person with your fur-kiddo. I am patient and will give you whatever you need to feel comfortable with me as a caregiver — from answering questions, to a meet-and-greet (in person or on zoom), to picture updates all along the way. Every dog and cat is different, and I want to know what makes your beloved pet unique so I can provide him/her with the best care. I’m a good communicator — from medications to leash/sidewalk politics to triggers and everything in between, you can rest assured we will be on the same page. I have experience caring for all shapes and sizes: - Chihuahuas and Terriers (my dog Jack is a mix!) - Bernese Mountain Dogs - Border Collie Mixes - Shepherds - Staffy’s - Golden Retrievers - Shelties - Samoyeds - King Charles - Schnauzers - Norwegian Forest Cats - Tabbies I am happy to take on puppies/kittens and can integrate any training you might be working on with your fur-kiddo. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can accommodate most walks and drop-ins depending on your needs. Just shoot me a request and I’ll get back to you right away. I treat everyone’s home with the same respect I expect at my own. I also take privacy very seriously. I am always happy to do meet-and-greets at a public park (or similar) before services. Again, I get it — you're trusting someone new in your home and with your animals. I want you to feel as comfortable as possible!
“Fantastic sitter for our Maine coon cat. Very attentive to all details, experienced in animal care and so very flexible. Everything you’d want in a pet sitter! Thank you so much Hayley!”
“Lauriane was amazing! She was so patient and kind with our dogs and they seemed really comfortable with her right off the bat. It’s never easy being away from our pups, but knowing they’re in such good hands made me feel so much better. We will definitely reach out again!”
“Emily was great! She took the time to listen to my needs and thoroughly executed them. Most importantly, Emily was very loving towards my two cats and gave them lots of attention. I would definitely hire Emily again in the future!”
“Hi Alex. Thank you for taking care of Jack and being there whenever we need you. Our boy is happy as always and in good health. We are starting to think that he likes you more than us. Lol! Until next time! ♥️”
“I’m so grateful to Sahirah for accommodating our last-minute booking. She was incredibly kind, quick to respond, and kept us updated with photos the whole time. This was my first time using Rover, and she made it such an easy, reassuring experience. I’d absolutely love to book with her again in the future :)”
“Alex has been so good and attentive with my dogs. I always receive several photos update and my babies look very happy with her. I am sure that I will ask her to visit my dogs again soon.”
“Thank you, thank you!! Robin was amazing - communicated regularly, promptly on schedule, and really gave our cats the love and care we hoped they would get. She’ll be our first stop next time we need cat care.”
“Courtney is outstanding! She always goes above and beyond for our fur family!! She even saved us from a potential robber! She takes great care of her clients and ensures safety and amazing care of both pets and their owners!! Thank you Courtney you are a life saver!”
“Sonjia is absolutely fantastic! We thought our dogs would take naps after we left the house and left them with her but instead they played for almost the entire time we were gone. That’s a testament to how much they immediately liked her! It’s scary to leave our babies with someone new, especially with our puppy having some health issues but Sonjia immediately made us feel at ease and her expertise and confidence with animals/dogs was instantly apparent. So glad to have found her!!”
“Amanda was awesome! She dropped in to check on my cat and took great care of everything. She sent pics, gave me quick updates, and my cat looked super happy and relaxed with her. I felt totally at ease while I was away. Definitely booking her again. Highly recommend!”
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 backyard and a separately fenced swimming pool area, providing a safe and comfortable environment where dogs can relax, play, and explore. 🐾 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: * Multiple supervised play sessions in the fenced backyard * Activities tailored to each dog’s age, personality, and energy level * Plenty of companionship, attention, and rest throughout the day 🧠 In my home, I also provide: * Snuffle mats * Puzzle toys * A variety of interactive toys All toys are cleaned and sanitized regularly to provide a safe and healthy play environment. 🏊 Summer Pool Time During the summer, dogs who enjoy water may have the opportunity to play in the pool. Pool time is only offered with the owner’s permission, and all water activities are closely supervised to ensure every dog’s safety and comfort. 🐾 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 in a safe environment so they can feel relaxed and comfortable. However, if your dog is crate-trained or needs a crate for safety, rest, or training, I’m happy to use your crate or provide one, as long as we discuss it in advance. 🏡 Cleanliness & Safety Cleanliness and safety are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly home every day so your dog can feel comfortable and at ease throughout their stay. 🍓 Optional Add-On Services (Additional Fee) If requested in advance, I also offer: * 🦷 Teeth brushing care * 🍎 Fresh fruit or plain yogurt treats (only with your permission and if there are no allergies) * 🍗 Homemade fresh meals prepared according to your instructions (ingredients, portions, and allergies will always be discussed beforehand) ❤️ My Philosophy I truly enjoy spending time with pets and deeply value the trust owners place in me. My goal is simple: 👉 To make every dog feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while staying with me. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! 🐾💕 🐶 A Typical Day in My Care Every pup in my home enjoys a warm, structured, and loving routine: 🌞 Morning – We kick off the day in the backyard! Pups get to stretch their legs, do their morning potty, and play around before enjoying a delicious breakfast. 🌤️ Midday – We head outside to the yard for a quick potty break and a little fun. Afterward, we spend most of the time indoors—relaxing in a cozy, air-conditioned room if it’s hot—so everyone can enjoy a peaceful midday nap. 🌿 Afternoon – After naptime, the pups can head back out to the yard to play, explore, or just relax. I’m always home, so your pup is never left alone and always receives plenty of love and attention. 🌆 Evening – Dinner time! For any picky eaters, I like to mix in a little shredded chicken or tasty toppers to encourage them to eat up. After dinner, they head back out to the yard for more play and relaxing family time. 🌙 Night – Right before bedtime, we go out to the yard one last time for a final potty break. Afterward, your pup can settle down for a calm, restful night, feeling completely safe and loved in their favorite cozy spot. 🏡 A Safe & Secure Home Away from Home Your pup’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. My home is a single-family house with a spacious backyard that features a double-gate system for extra peace of mind. Your furry friend can run and play in total safety, with zero risk of wandering off! Additionally, we have an in-ground pool surrounded by its own locked safety fence. The pool area stays securely locked at all times to ensure complete safety. However, if your pup is a water lover, I’m more than happy to unlock the gate and supervise some splash time with your permission! Indoors, our home is clean, quiet, and kept refreshingly cool with air conditioning on hot days. Because I am home full-time, your pup will never be left alone. Whether they are napping, playing in the yard, or enjoying cozy cuddle time, they’ll receive gentle, around-the-clock care. I treat every dog like family—balancing fun, structure, and endless love. With regular photo and video updates sent directly to you, you can relax with complete peace of mind knowing your pup is in a reliable, super secure, and loving environment. ❤️
“Gabriella provided great care for my two cats during her drop-in visit. As a first-time Rover user, I was initially anxious, but she quickly alleviated my concerns with her professionalism and warmth! She was fantastic with my cats, keeping me updated with regular communication and sending me plenty of photos during her visit. Even my shy and cautious cat warmed up to her very quickly. I will certainly be reaching out to her again for future cat-sitting needs! Highly recommend Gabriella for her top-notch service and genuine care for pets :)”
“My pets loved Mike right as they met him. He was flexible, kind, and overall a great sitter. We had to change trip dates and later we worked in an additional visit on the schedule. We had very limited cellphone reception while out of town and were happy that he was communicating as needed. We will definitely book him again!”
“Charmaine showed Leo so much love while we were away! It makes us feel so at ease, knowing he was safe and happy with her. Thanks, Charmaine, for taking such great care of our furbaby!!!”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Temple City is $25
Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Temple City
We had such a wonderful experience! She took amazing care of our three cats while we were away and was incredibly kind, attentive, and reliable. She kept us updated and made us feel completely at ease knowing our babies were in good hands. 🥹🐱❤️ You can really tell she genuinely cares about animals and treated our cats with so much love and patience. We came home to three happy, well-cared-for kitties. We’re so grateful for everything and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend! 💕
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.
Chu Hua was absolutely amazing with my kitties!! She clearly has a ton of experience with cats, and asked great questions when she came beforehand to check everything out and get the run down! She came every day, did what was needed, and played with them! Got so many photos and videos too! Will definitely be using her again in the future!!
I left town last minute and was so thankful that Aisa and David could come check on Kita. She knows them and is able to connect with them so sweetly. I’m so grateful to have someone I trust to either board or look after her when I’m out of town. They’re so attentive and so helpful and they go above and beyond. 10/10 as always!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Temple City on Rover is $27.75 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 9,694 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.
