“From the moment I meet Jessie, she made me feel confident that I had made the right decision to use Rover and choose her as our sitter. She stayed one week in my house and took excellent care of my three dogs. She was in contact with me every day sending pictures and updates. My dogs loved Jessie. She is a lovely young lady and very professional.”
“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!”
“Ella watched our babies for two days while we were out of town and I wasn’t worried one minute! She sent multiple photos while taking care of them to ease my nerves. She was super punctual to the schedule I provided and stayed extra to make sure my babies got everything they needed!! Will definitely need to reach out again the next time we are leaving out of town!!”
“Donna was amazing! She stayed with our Willow for 2 weeks and sent pics every night and was VERY responsive and trustworthy! Leaving a pet for a long period of time is so stressful, but Donna took all the stress out of it and I got to actually enjoy my vacation!! I would 100% hire her again and will on my next vacation!”
“She took care of our pets very well, and sent pics everyday! For the most part I was able to relax and enjoy the trip, and when I did get anxious (pet parent 😅) she was always very quick to respond!”
“This is my second time booking Sarah for house/dog sitting, and she’s great! This time I asked on pretty short notice, and she was available and accommodating to my schedule. Will definitely book again :)”

“Andru was amazing. He took fantastic care of my animals and kept me updated with pictures while we were away. Andru was clear in his communication, and seemed to genuinely love my animals, would definitely recommend and would love Andru to look after my animals again”
“Sherri was amazing! Super trustworthy and kind. Sent pics and kept us updated on Bebop while we were out. Bebop was sad when Sherri left! 100% would use her again! Thank you Sherri!”
“Anaysha was amazing! This was my first time using these services so I was a little nervous. Anaysha was extremely friendly and communicated so well while I was away. Anaysha went above and beyond. Highly recommended!”
“Sophia is the best! We had to leave our service dog (yes, there were many reasons for this) and he was just as happy when we returned as we left. You could tell he was well taken care of and enjoyed lots of treats. He’s not talking about how many but that’s ok. We will definitely be using her again.”
“Rachel took great care of our dog! She watched him for 4 nights and she sent a lot of photos to keep us updated. She spent a lot of time with him and made sure he was well taken care of!”
“Londyn did great with our puppers! She took good care and gave them lots of walks during her stay which our husky needs. She kept us in the loop with regular updates. And left our house neat and clean. We will gladly use her services again.”

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!!!
Emily was fantastic to work with. She came and met with our pups to familiarize herself with them and our home ahead of her stay. She asked great questions to ensure she was prepared and was very communicative while she was with our dogs. She was very considerate of us and our home which we very much appreciated. We will definitely work with Emily again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Pleasant Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Pleasant Hill on Rover is $83.25 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 545 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pleasant Hill. 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 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.
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 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!
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pleasant Hill. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
