“We cannot recommend Hope highly enough. Our dog Chester is normally overwhelmed when meeting new people, but he immediately loved Hope (she came prepared with treats to win him over.) Hope was very communicative leading up to her stay and confirmed the details with us several times. She arrived on time and Chester remembered her immediately. Hope texted us pictures and updates of her time with Chester, making us feel at ease while we were away. She went above and beyond her duties and when we came home, our house was in better condition than when we left it. We will absolutely rebook Hope to watch Chester in the future. Working with her was a wonderful experience.”
“We couldn’t recommend Debbie enough!!!! She was (miraculously) available fairly last minute for our trip and from the word go, she was top notch! Our home and puppy Philomena were so well cared for while we were away. Debbie sent us plenty (but not too many) of snapshots and occasional videos of Phil living her best life while we were away. Thank you Debbie for being Phil’s new friend and we can’t wait to have you back again!. 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, ‘no notes’ as the saying goes. 🥰.”
“Julie kept us well informed about how Cooper was doing. He had nice long walks and play time in the yard with Julie. These are things we are unable to do with him so he loved it. Definitely would use Julie again.”
“John took care of our babies while we were gone for a trip! This was the longest we’ve been away from them and our nerves were all over. He eased our anxiety by providing pics multiple times a day and giving us updates on them. We can’t recommend him enough!”
“I’m so happy I found Jenna on Rover.com. Jenna is reliable, friendly and takes great care of my two Goldendoodles and she leaves my house in perfect condition after a visit. My pups love her and knowing that they’re both being taking care of in my own home with Jenna gives me peace of mind.”
“Olivia is great! I’m definitely an anxious doggo mom but Olivia made me and our pup feel at ease! She takes such great care and has excellent communication and responsiveness. 100% recommend!”
“Serenity was wonderful. So communicative and there for my animals around the clock. I had a friend drop out at the last minute and was unable to take care of our animals but serenity was ready to take care of them the second I reached out. She has done a great job of taking care of my dog pets needs and making me feel secure in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would love to use her services in the future!”
“We love Tonia! She was fantastic with our two treasured pups. She was attentive, loving, and very clean/ organized, which always makes coming home a delight. She made sure to send a lot of pictures so we always knew our babies were well cared for. 100% recommend!”
“Madison was perfect! She sent pictures/updates of our dogs and had no problems reaching out with any questions that came up. We booked her super last minute and had no problems at all. I would recommend her to anyone who has crazy dogs and would definitely book with her again”
“Christiane took wonderful care of our elder furbabies with all of their specific needs! My body, mind & soul appreciate having someone so responsible caring for our home & loves. It makes travel easier, thank you!!!”
“Saige is the real deal!! She is very professional and accommodating. She gave our pup lots of love and snuggles and took great care of our high-maintenance girl. Luna can't wait to see Saige again!”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals on my family farm and I love them all! I have experience with dogs, cats, chickens, pigs, bunnies, ducks, and horses! I have a short school and work schedule so I have plenty of time to play with and take care of your pets! Available many hours and days. I have fenced in areas and leashes outside to keep pet safe and secure. I also have barns and crates if needed for your pet.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a little girl and that has been many many years ago. I have also worked as an animal tech and research assistant where I maintained animal colonies and worked with large animals. I believe having animals in your life is a blessing. I am retired and I love animals so I thought I would give some love and attention to the animals that need some attention while the owner is away from them. I have a fenced in yard that the dogs can run and play. I am also there with the dogs most if not all of the day.
About: As a nurse practitioner, families already trust me with something more precious than anything – their health. That same professionalism, responsibility, compassion, or what I bring to caring for your pets. But beyond my medical background, I have an extreme love for animals. I don't do pet sitting just as a job, it's what truly makes me happy. Whether it's dogs, cats, or exotics, I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and understood while you're away. You'll get the perfect mix of medical professionalism, trust in genuine animal passion – a combination that gives you total peace of mind and gives your pets a new best friend while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, my schedule is flexible, which allows me to build time in for pet visits walks and it's extended care. I prioritize keeping a balance schedule so that way I can be dependable. That means you'll have the peace of mind, knowing I'm organized, committed and available to work on your needs. I provide pet sitting exclusively in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their own from your space. I'll make sure they have everything they need fresh food and water potty breaks or litter changes, walks, playtime, and lots of love.
About: I’m a very active person and I will return your pup to you worn out from their vacation! I have been taking care of dogs intermittently since I was 10-11, and I love dogs of all sizes and breeds. I’m comfortable with big dogs, and I’m not one to let a dog take advantage of me and my treat jar. I’m also very comfortable with little dogs! Lap dogs are always welcome in this home :) With the recent passing of my dog, I am ready to bring a furry friend back into my home while you're away. My job is very flexible, and I am able to work from home or drop in to let the pup out for potty breaks if needed. I love to go on long walks after work, and your pup will enjoy those with me. I love walking to Domino Park, and would love to let your pup run in the dog park if you're comfortable. Otherwise, we will make long loops around the neighborhood. My roommate and I live on the first floor of a beautiful, large apartment. My office/guest room includes a lovely twin bed that your pup can relax on while I work. I have experience with senior dogs as well, and the first floor apartment could be perfect for a pup with mobility issues. We both absolutely love dogs and someone will always be around to give snuggles!
“We are new to the Cincinnati area, and finding a new pet sitting can be quite daunting. We are so fortunate to have had AJ take care of our 3 papillons and house for the past week. During the meet and greet, my 3 liked AJ immediately. He is a good communicator and very conscientious. We received several updates, and found our dogs happy and healthy upon our return. He also kept our house very tidy. We will definitely book AJ when we need pet sitting in the future. 5☆”
About: Ask anyone who knows me, i'm the ultimate dog-lover! In 2018, I became a professional pet care provider with Eola Pets in Orlando, FL. I have provided any sort of care to any sort of animal you can think of. From long, energy focused walks to short potty breaks, administering oral medication or injecting insulin, training 6 month old puppies or being a companion for our senior friends. Dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, snakes, reptiles, fish. I have experienced it all and would love to help care for your creature! I work from home M-F, so I’m able to adjust my schedule to your needs! We do three 15/20 minute walks between 8am-5pm then an, at least, one hour walk in the evening or a few hours at the dog park with our other dog friends! I can be as flexible or as strict to a schedule as you need! Every dog that crosses my path is treated like family and gets the ultimate care package when with me. I have a seven year old husky who loves making friends! We do plenty of walks around our neighborhood so there’s lots of opportunity for socialization training and even a neighborhood dog park, if you approve! There will always be supervision in the home. If needed, my dog can be crated or kept separate.

FAQs for House Sitting - Pleasant Plain
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,491 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Pleasant Plain. 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 Plain 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 Plain 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 Plain 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.
