“Heather took great care of our little dog Dazey. She paid attention to her needs and asked questions if she noticed anything unexpected. Appreciated her attentive care of our little girl.”
“Monica was amazing! The first day we met and talked with her for our meet and greet, we were immediately at ease with having her sit for our dog and home. When we were away, we could tell that Monica was so kind, thoughtful and playful with Coco. She played with her toys with her, threw the ball, spent time in the yard and took her on neighborhood walks. She also took her on car rides and in general treated Coco like she was her own. We got so many adorable pictures and updates, and when we got home from our trip, Coco was calm and happy. We could not be more pleased. Also, Monica took beautiful care of our house and administered all of Coco's medications throughout the day. We would hire Monica to sit again in a heartbeat.”
“Halona was great. We were out of town and she made sure that Athena was happy. She stepped in when our other person wasn’t available. She made our trip easy because we knew Athena would be taken care of. We will definitely use her again.”
“Cristal took excellent care of our sweet, anxious doggie. She sent lots of pictures and let us know how Clara was doing. When we returned, the house was clean and orderly. She took excellent care of our dog and our house. We have already booked Cristal again!”
“Rebecca stayed with our elderly dog and we can tell she was very well taken care of. I appreciated her updates and photos would definitely recommend and book with her again!”
About: Hi guys! My name is César, and I offer dog walking, sitting, and overnight care around the East Bay and surrounding Bay Area. I currently take care of a few dogs and have experience with dogs of all different personalities and energy levels. I’m generally available most afternoons for walks, and I can also house sit if you prefer having your dog stay in their own home. If your dog stays with me, I have a secure, dog friendly home with a backyard where they can enjoy supervised outdoor time. I’ve also been a dog owner for most of my life. I don’t currently have a dog of my own, but I absolutely love being around them, which is a big part of why I enjoy doing this. I’m fully cleared through a background check, and I’m happy to provide anything else that would help you feel comfortable trusting me with your dog. If you’re looking for someone reliable to walk, watch, or stay with your dog, feel free to message me with any questions. Thank you! 🐶 I’m available most days with advance notice, just let me know what dates you’re looking for. I work Tuesday through Saturday, so I take care of dogs before and after my shifts, and I’m off Sundays and Mondays. I’m pretty flexible overall, aside from occasional travel. For me, making a dog feel comfortable starts with patience. I know every dog has their own personality, boundaries, and way of building trust, so I never try to force an interaction. I give them time to get comfortable with me and pay attention to their body language and what they’re communicating. I keep things calm, positive, and consistent, whether we’re going for a walk, hanging out at home, or they’re staying with me. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. I want them to feel like they’re spending time with someone they know and trust, not just someone who’s watching them.
“We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Efraim. This was our first time using Rover, and we were trying to find someone who could confidently care for both our indoor cat and our dog, who has significant anxiety and some recent behavioral challenges. In the past we’ve had to board our dog and hire a separate sitter for our cat, which was complicated and expensive. From the beginning, Efraim was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and flexible. After noticing that he also works as a dog walker and is pursuing dog training, we reached out to see if he would be open to meeting our dog. He happily arranged a meet-and-greet and then spent time walking our dog in the weeks before our trip so they could build trust and familiarity. That effort alone gave us enormous peace of mind before leaving. While we were away, Efraim took amazing care of everything. He walked our dog daily, brushed our (very fluffy!) cat, kept the litter box clean, and made sure both animals were comfortable and well cared for. He also maintained our large yard with multiple hummingbird feeders and bird fountains, keeping everything clean and filled. We received daily updates with photos and videos, and he was always communicative about how things were going. When we returned home, the house was immaculate — he had even stripped the bedding and run the laundry. Efraim is responsible, kind, and incredibly conscientious. We felt completely comfortable having him in our home and caring for our animals, and it made our vacation so much more relaxing knowing everything was in such good hands. We would absolutely hire him again and recommend him without hesitation.”
“Yesenia is an actual angel! We booked with her last minute. We met prior to traveling and I immediately trusted her. She is so sweet and sent pictures daily and was always available when I messaged her! When we came home the house was spotless and our boys were so happy. :) we will definitely use her again!”
“Tina was an amazing overnight dog sitter at our house! My dog is a rescue and is very nervous around other animals, so we have to have the dog sitter stay at our house when we can't take our dog with us. However, she warmed right up to Tina and they had a great time together. It was a 4 day overnight job. Tina was wonderful about sending updates and pictures, and she was detail oriented in giving medications. Will definitely use her again!”

“Jessica has watched our home and our sweet pup, Sierra, twice now and has been exceptional. She is fantastic with young dogs needs, and an excellent communicator with daily pics to check in and provide updates. Jessica has also been great about giving our high energy lab plenty of exercise with daily walks. She was great with our home as well, leaving it just the way it was when she arrived...love that. Thanks again Jessica! We look forward to having you watch Sierra again soon!”
“Rocky absolutely loved hanging out with Carrie. He got to meet Carrie's dog too! He had a great time. Carrie was absolutely wonderful for the entire time. She took great care of Rocky. She even went the extra long mile of cleaning our living area before we got home so we had less to do after our trip! Thanks Carrie!!”
“Brenna was amazing. She came last minute (we had another Rover who got sick and has to cancel) and was perfect for our very new, very sweet, very anxious about people and separating from her people pup (15 lb chihuahua terrier mix). Brenna knew just how to be around our anxious dog, and our dog warmed up to her quickly. Our dog let Brenna hold her and cuddle her and even take her outside a few times while we were gone - nothing short of a miracle with this pup. I will be going back to Brenna again as often as needed!”
“Candi took care of our two cats for the first time recently. I could definitely tell she wanted to provide daily enrichment and a quality experience for my furry guys 🙏 Much appreciated”
“Erica was awesome! ! She was on time and friendly! We were able to get her on short notice on a Holiday weekend! When we returned our pups were happy and relaxed and sad to see her go! Our dogs have a new Bestie in Oregon 👍”

“Fantastic dog sitter. Amila stayed with our 1 year old Bernadoodle for 5 days and he was so comfortable with her. She took him on multiple walks a day and he loved it. She left our place immaculate. Would highly recommend!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Concord
Monica is absolutely wonderful. She took care of our dog and house while we were away last week, and we came back to a perfect house and a happy dog. Monica takes very special care of our 16 year old dog. She spends lots of time with her, cuddles with her, takes her along on errands and outings, plays with her and showers her with love and attention. Additionally, She checks in often, asks questions when needed and sends lots of pictures. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.
Esther was wonderful! She was very flexible, accommodating, and followed all our instructions. She took excellent care of Milo and sent us photos and videos often, which we really appreciated. She also left our home spotless. She even washed the towels and bedsheets she used before we returned. We’re so grateful Milo was in good hands, and we will definitely use her again when there is a need.
Victoria was amazing! Mac is a little nervous and she got him to warm up to her really quick during the meet and greet. Mac also had a scary medical thing prior to my trip and she had to give him a pill every day and coming back he looked so much better which was amazing and a relief. She left my house clean and I will definitely be reaching out to her for upcoming trips!!
Hosana took excellent care of my two high-energy dogs (one of which is extra, extra high-energy). Really appreciated her updates and excellent, proactive communication. She stayed at our house and took great care. We very much appreciate her and look forward to using her services again!
Leaving our sweet pup, Winnie, is always hard, but finding someone you truly trust to care for them (and your home!) is such a gift. We cannot say enough wonderful things about Serafina! She took the time to meet Winnie ahead of our trip and genuinely cared about getting to know her routine and what would make her (and us!) feel most comfortable. Throughout the weekend, she sent us the most thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us an immense peace of mind knowing Winnie was in such wonderful hands. We feel so lucky to have found Serafina and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pup!!
Jimena did a great job with my sweet but neurotic cats (and their neurotic owner)! I was nervous about going out of town because the cats had recently been demonstrating some changes in appetite. Jimena sent lots of pictures, which helped ease my mind, and she was vigilant in reporting back to me about the cats’ meals and bathroom habits. My shy kitty also seemed to warm up to Jimena quicker than she usually does with new people!
Monica was nothing short of amazing with our two girls! They bonded with her quickly (no small task for these two GSD/Belgian girls) and had a great time with her. She sent plenty of photos and kept my girls busy. She is kind, communicative, timely, neat, and clearly an animal lover. I cannot recommend her highly enough. I would not hesitate to book Monica again in the future! Leaving your fur babies can be very stressful but Monica made it easy and comfortable. THANK YOU, Monica!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Concord is $88 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $125 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 7,720 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Concord. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Concord walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Concord maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Concord choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Concord. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
