“Abby was fantastic! She came and met my pups prior to house sitting just to get acquainted. My aggressive pup absolutely loved her and she text me updates throughout the visit letting me know when she came to the house and when she left after her stay! Highly recommend and will definitely use her in the future!”
“Haley was absolutely amazing with Kenny and Poopy! We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of them. She kept us updated, gave them plenty of attention and love, and most importantly, gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were in great hands while we were away. It’s obvious Haley genuinely loves animals and treats them like they’re her own. Kenny and Poopy were happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Having someone you can truly trust with your dogs means everything, and Haley has definitely earned that trust with us. We will absolutely be using her again. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and wonderful with your pets, Haley is the one. Five stars doesn’t feel like enough! 🐾❤️”

“Sophia is a wonderful addition to our pups lives! They love her & spending time with her! They are excited when she walks in our door. She house sits with our fur children while we are traveling and is amazing! She watched our two dogs & my grandog for our travels. The house was well cared for as were our babies! Sophia is caring,upbeat,responsive and knowledgeable. Our home was left in top shape & so were the furs. We have already booked 2 more stays for the summer. I highly recommend Sophia!! She is truly exceptional!”
“Ericka was wonderful with my special needs elderly dog and my skittish rescue dog. She was extremely respectful of my home and even came back after the dog sit was completed to check on my dogs when we got delayed with our travel. A+! Highly recommend! We will definitely be using her again!”
“We are incredibly grateful for Sherri! Our trip unexpectedly got prolonged due to weather conditions and she kindly stayed over with our dogs until we could get home. It was such a relief to have someone so thoughtful, kind, and dependable at our house taking care of our dogs. We will always book Ms. Sherri if she is available!”
“We cannot recommend Londyn highly enough! She stayed at our home over a long weekend to care for our dog, Brontë, and our cat, Tig, and did an outstanding job. It was clear from the moment we returned that both pets had been well cared for, happy, relaxed, and given plenty of attention and affection while we were away. Londyn also took excellent care of our home, leaving everything spotless and in excellent condition. Knowing our pets and home were in such capable hands gave us complete peace of mind during our trip. We were so impressed with the care she provided that we have already booked her again for a future trip. We would not hesitate to recommend Londyn to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and responsible pet sitter.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since early childhood, and I now own a cat! I have taken care of dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors needing daily medicine. I have been trusted with the pets of my friends, family members, and family friends. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter as well! I have such a big heart for dogs of all ages and breeds! I am currently a full time cosmetology student on campus 8 hours a day Monday-Friday. Unfortunately, I am very limited on time during the weekdays, however, I am super flexible Saturdays and Sundays! I am unable to watch pets in my home due to my lease. However, I am willing to travel to yours! If special instructions are needed for your pet, please let me know! I can cage/kennel the dog(s) if needed!
“Jessica was great with my dogs. She gave them their medicine, walked them and treated them like her own. The house was spotless just as we had left it. We will definitely be calling her again.”
“Hailey did an amazing job with our pets. She came to my house beforehand so that we could meet her in person. She sent pictures every day . Our pets seemed happy and everything was great when we returned. I will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve loved animals and cared for pets since I was young (growing up with Labrador retrievers and miniature dachshunds). As a proud dog mom to Henry, my long-haired miniature dachshund, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’m experienced with daily routines, feeding, playtime, walks, and providing lots of love and attention. As a volleyball coach, I’m patient, responsible, and attentive to individual needs. Whether your pet needs an overnight companion, a midday check-in, or extra cuddles while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family and keep you updated so you can feel confident they’re in great hands. I know first hand just how important those daily check-ins and photos can be when you’re away from your furry family members. I’m currently working full time from 8:30 am to 4 pm M-F. I have an hour lunch break that I usually leave my office during. I have very little schedule interruptions throughout the week, but will always communicate conflicts in advance. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with a dog park and paved sidewalks within a fenced community. I enjoy taking walks in my spare time and am an ex-collegiate athlete which can help to manage larger dogs and keep both parties safe.
About: My experience comes from years of caring for my own dog "Griffey" and cat "Miss Kitty", along with pets belonging to friends and family. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and committed to following your instructions carefully. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or a calm presence, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own and keep you updated so you can feel completely at ease. I joined Rover because I miss having my dog in my everyday life. He is currently staying with my parents back home in north-central Kansas. My dad’s health isn’t the best, and my dog brings him a great deal of comfort, so I know he is where he needs to be for now. I return home about once a month to visit them. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Best Shawn Phelps I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available most weekdays, weekends, and holidays. I can often accommodate short-notice requests and easily work around your pet’s regular feeding, playtime, and care routine. I prefer caring for pets in their own homes, where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed in familiar surroundings. I will follow each pet’s normal routine, carefully secure doors and gates, respect the client’s home, and provide regular updates and photos. I have a friendly cat at home who gets along well with dogs but prefers not to be around other cats. Because of that, I would care for cats in their own homes but may welcome dogs into mine after a meet-and-greet. I’m flexible and always willing to discuss the safest arrangement for each pet.
“Brittany was great! Our dogs were clearly well cared for and our house was in great shape when we returned. She was great at sharing updates and photos while we're away. Will definitely hire again!”
“Aubree was SO great with our doggies, Teddy and Millie! We made a last minute decision not to travel with our dogs and she was willing to come do a meet and greet and accepted the job very last minute, thankfully! She stayed at our home and made our sudden trip away for a family funeral much less stressful because we knew our dogs were in good hands. We have an older dog and a middle aged dog with potty issues, especially when routines change at home. Aubree was patient and willing to clean up after them and I’m so grateful for that extra work and effort. She also sent us pupdates while we were away and pictures! Her communication is always positive and reassuring, making it such a pleasure to know her and work with her! We’re already working on scheduling with her for another trip coming up!”
About: I’ve taken care of Dogs,Cats, and small animals for as long as I can remember. Making sure every animal is treated with the love and care they deserve is my goal! I’m currently working from 9-6 but mornings and anytime after 6 works for me. Weekends are always open for me. If you need any other times please let me know. Always making sure that your home is clean and that your furry friends are comfortable. If your pet needs any extra love or attention in certain areas please let me know.
“Courtney was absolutely wonderful! She sent many updates, photos, and videos throughout the weekend. I know our animals were in great hands and we came home to them being very happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be using Courtney in the future!”
About: I’m new to professional dog sitting, but I absolutely love spending time with dogs. I’m responsible, attentive, and committed to making sure every pup feels safe, happy, and cared for. I’m available almost every day with a flexible schedule to accommodate your needs. Happy to work around your preferred drop-off, pick-up, walking, or sitting times. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll provide a caring, clean, and secure environment with plenty of attention and supervision.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pleasant Hill
Perfection! Abby moved into our home for a two week stay with our two dogs and one cat…all very high maintenance! She handled our detailed instructions with grace and ease. Communication was spot on with lots of texts and photos. Abby went above and beyond when we had a minor health issue with one of the dogs. She was happily willing to make a vet visit if needed and that gave us a lot of reassurance that our pets were in the best hands!
Simone took such great care of our dogs and home! She was extremely attentive to their needs and made sure they had everything they needed during their time together. She also kept us up to date the whole time. Our dogs loved her and can’t wait until we go out of town again so they can hangout with their favorite sitter!
Jordan was wonderful with Maggie! She took the greeting like a champ, unbothered by Maggie's psycho "LOOOOVEEE MEEEEE" attitude and jumping. She was also great with my chattery overview of the house, the dog, all the things. When I got back home, Maggie was chilled out and happy, and that is all I can ask for! Jordan is definitely going to be invited back. She is new to Rover, but it's obvious that she is very much a pro with animals!! I will recommend her over and over!!!

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 Pleasant Hill 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 Pleasant Hill 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Pleasant Hill 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!

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 .

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.
