“Emily babysat my 3 cats 8 days. Flight plans changed unexpectedly and Emily graciously stayed the extra day. Sammy, my Senior cat requires medication two times a day, at 17 years old it’s imperative he not miss a dose. Emily had no problem at all. She checked in on every visit the first two days til she was able to stay nights. She really saved me, Sammy, Atticus and Angus from a disaster. I’d been in conversations with another sitter for over a month and had a great Meet and Greet. At 33 hours before my planned flight that sitter abruptly cancelled. Yikes! Emily stepped in at the 11th hour. She was tidy and thoughtful, even vacuuming the morning before we returned home. I’ll be contacting Emily for all our future house/babysitting needs in the future. Forgot to mention every morning and every evening she sent photos of Sammy, Atticus and Angus.”
“Destiny is great! She stayed with my dog, Sasha, for five days in my home. Everyday she provided an update and pictures which was so nice to know that everything was going well. Destiny also has great communication and responds quickly. I so appreciate the wonderful care she provided to Sasha. Will definitely be booking Destiny in the future!”
“Amy was a caring and fun cat sitter for Cal and Cookie. She played with them and sent pictures and messages while we were away. She also left the home clean and ready for our return. Thanks Amy!”
About: Hello fellow animal lovers! My name is Shealea and I have over two years combined experience working with dogs. I was a handler as well as a team leader at one of Eugene's premier dog boarding facilities where I gained a plethora of knowledge and experience in all things canine related! My approach is to treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. "Dog's are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." I am a SAHM so I have a flexible schedule to meet your pet care needs! Please message me if you have any pet care needs outside of my scheduled availability. :) I treat each pet in my care as if they were part of my own family. I am attentive, knowledgeable and understand the importance having a solid line of communication with pet parents.
“Lisa was excellent. We felt comfortable that our fur baby was getting the care we expected. She is knowledgeable and client focused with a professional approach.”
“Alivia did an amazing job with my reactive, 60 lb Old English Sheepdog. Willa took to her immediately, which is rare and means she has the BEST vibes. She stayed with Willa in our apartment while I was out of state, gave regular updates, wasn’t afraid to ask questions, and I arrived home to a happy, healthy sheepdog and a clean apartment.”
“Jaryd did a wonderful job caring for our pets. He communicated throughout our time away and when we returned our pets were calm and well. We would absolutely recommend Jaryd.”
About: I have volunteered at the Humane Society of Utah weekly for 5 years with both dogs and cats where I’ve had the opportunity to care for both dogs and cats with all kinds of personalities and needs. Last year I moved to Oregon to pursue my undergraduate degree (go ducks!) and I’m so excited to bring my experience and love for animals to caring for your pets!! At home in Utah I have two dogs (Millie and Iroh) and a cat (Luna) and have been caring for them for the past 5 years. Iroh has epilepsy and anxiety so I am experienced with handling animal medications and special needs. I’m dedicated to making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, and I’m happy to accommodate their individual routines, personalities, and needs. I'm currently in school at University of Oregon but do not have a job outside of that so I have a fairly flexible schedule. Typically, I am in class from 12-5pm, which means I’m available to spend my mornings and evenings with your pups and kitties! My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their normal environment. I’ll follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any other care they need. I will treat your home with the same care and consideration I would my own.
“Cameron was fantastic! She shared photos of our pets and took Otis out on a hike. Pets seemed very happy when we got home and the house is in perfect condition. We can tell she is thoughtful and attentive and we will definitely ask her to come back and help.”
About: Hi, I’m Tessa - I run T’s One Acre Bark & Breakfast! 🐾 With one acre to play on and a cozy home to relax in, I give every pet safe, loving care. I’m Pet First Aid & CPR certified, have completed a course in Veterinary Assistant training, and am trained/certified in Fear Free™ - Leaders in Animal Wellbeing. While studying Fear Free, I have learned valuable information regarding dog body language, stress signals, and how to create a calm, positive environment for each pet. This means I use gentle handling, reward-based interactions, and stress-reducing techniques to make sure your furry family member feels comfortable and cared for at all times. My goal is to provide not just a safe place, but one where pets truly enjoy their stay, whether they’re here to play, rest, or cuddle up for some quiet time. We love visitors of all walks of life; seniors, puppies, and everything in between. We’ll treat your pet like one of our own and keep you updated every step of the way ❤️ In addition to boarding and daycare, I also offer drop-in visits; perfect for pets who feel most comfortable at home. Whether it’s potty breaks, mealtime, playtime, or a little extra love while you’re away, I’ll make sure your pet’s routine stays on track and they get the attention they deserve. Beyond errands needing to get done or going to town for appointments, I am always home. My husband assists in care when he is home as well. We have a lovely dog of our own - so they are always in our schedule with potty breaks, play, eating times and everything in between! Our acre is fenced and ready for exploring, relaxing, and playtime! We also have three children that are eager to shower your family member with an abundance of love and attention.
About: I am a lover of all dog breeds and I have many years of experience with both my own dogs and close friends/relatives. I particularly love large breeds, but the little guys really get me too! My current dog, Yeti, is a GSD/Husky. We have had him since he was 8 weeks old and he is almost 10 years old. I am currently only walking dogs, no job outside of that. After leaving my beloved coffee industry after 18 years, I find that walking/hiking dogs is what brings me daily joy. I will strictly abide by any requests or routines that need to be followed for your dogs wellbeing. You know your dog best and I want them to be happy and comfortable in my care.
“Claire was an amazing sitter, couldn’t recommend more! My dog Evie didn’t want her to leave! Claire was very communicative, flexible with my arrival back, and was a joy to work with.”
“Leigh was amazing! Our Monty was so comfortable with her. She was very attentive and kept us updated throughout the day. It was great to see how relaxed and happy he was. We look forward to working with Leigh again and we highly recommend her services!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember, having grown up with family dogs, having dogs of my own, and helping care for pets belonging to friends and neighbors. Over the years I’ve looked after dogs of all sizes and personalities, from small energetic pups to large, gentle giants and everything in between. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, administering medication, and providing lots and lots of attention and affection. At home, I have both a dog and cat, so my nights are usually spent being a pillow for a chubby cat or a pushy shiba (sometimes both at the same time), which means I’m never off schedule! I’m a college senior taking asynchronous classes and working part-time in security roles, which allows for a very open schedule. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring the neighborhood, or simply curling on the couch for some company, I'm happy to tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. I’ve always loved being around animals, and caring for pets lets me share that love while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. As mentioned above, pet care fits really well into my routine because I’m taking asynchronous classes and have a limited part time schedule! Since I can do coursework from anywhere, I'm happy to work from your home while caring for your dog. That means they can have company throughout the day instead of being left alone for long stretches. I naturally build walks, outdoor time, and movement into my day, so taking a dog out for fresh air, exercise is something | genuinely enjoy!. Whether your dog is high energy and loves adventure or prefers a slower pace and lots of cuddles, I'm happy to adapt to the routine and make sure they feel comfortable safe and loved while you're away! When caring for pets in your home, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel secure while you’re gone. I’ll follow any instructions you provide on feeding, walks, medications, house rules, and favorite routines. Safety is always my top priority, and I pay close attention to details that matter. I am educated on and have handled pet emergencies swiftly; I know who to call, and don't waste any time when there's a concern. If you have a barrel-chested dog, it’ll get a small, controlled amount of water after coming in from the heat so it doesn’t catch bloat. If you have an escape artist kitty, it’ll always be in my arms or in another room when the door is open. I’m also mindful of things like hot pavement, crowded areas, and anything else that could make a pet uncomfortable or unsafe. I understand that trusting someone with both your pet and your home is a big deal. I’ll treat your space with the same respect I’d give my own, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I also own a high-quality digital camera and love sending free, high-quality photos to update you on how they’re doing, silly phone pics included!
“Rachel was a fantastic house sitter. I have a dog that can be quite shy, upset when meeting new people. Rachel literally had her eating snacks out of her hand almost immediately. I knew then I could leave Ursa in good hands. My home was cleaned, she even helped me organize some belongings as I had just moved in and my house was disheveled. She had a video playing on the tv, soothing music for dogs 💕 Oh, yeah, I also have a cat. I would highly recommend Rachel and I will be having her return do another visit soon. Thanks!”
“Natalie did an amazing job with my pup and two cats while housesitting. Kept the home nice and clean upon arrival and will definitely rebook with her again. Thank you Natalie!”

FAQs for House Sitting - Pleasant Hill
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 637 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
