“Chelsea was very communicative and sent lots of photos during the time she stayed at my house while watching my pup. I’d recommend her for house/pet sitting and hope to have her back!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely feel they’re meant to be by your side. I have hands-on experience with senior care, helping an older dog walk, carrying him when needed, and keeping him comfortable. Dogs understand emotions and give unconditional support, and I make sure to return that same care, patience, and love to every dog I watch. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work part-time about 25–30 hours a week at a nearby job, which gives me plenty of flexibility. I can consistently provide walks, attention, feeding, and care throughout the day, making sure your dog is never neglected and always looked after In a client’s home, I stick closely to your dog’s routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care needed. I’m very respectful of your space, always clean up after myself and the dog, and make sure your home stays in great condition while you’re away.
“Charlotte was great with our 2 boxers! She was on time for our meet and greet and showed up exactly when we agreed for our pet sitting… she communicated every step of the way and left our home and our puppies clean and happy!! Thank you Charlotte for all your help!!!”
“Rachel was absolutely amazing with our dog . She handled her anxiety so beautifully and we felt totally at ease leaving our Harper with her. I would absolutely recommend Rachel without hesitation”
“I was really stuck in a last-minute center just for one night And brian did a great job! Definitely recommend I would definitely use Brian again. Mickey, my bull terrier was very happy with Bryan !”
About: I’m a lifelong animal person that’s - family always includes a dog or three! I’m familiar with many characters… the mush, the anxious, the energetic, or even the yapper. From growing up always being a co dog mom to my recent certification with Guiding Eyes for the Blind to sit and train seeing eye pups, I’d love to be a trustworthy friend for your four-legged family member(s)! Little note - vegan for 7+ years, so you know I truly love animals;) I’m a returning intern at a local firm, which gives me some flexibility and keeps me within close proximity. I’m a morning person, can make myself available for a midday visit, and am always happy to stop by after the work day. If you need help on the weekend, I’m absolutely here for you! I can promise I’ll not only take care of your pup’s needs but also become their best play buddy. As I said before, I’ve grown up around and have loved many characters, so I’m comfortable getting to know any pup.
“Nicole watched our dogs for us last week while we were away and it was such a great experience. We loved all the daily updates and photos she would send us. It was so nice to be on vacation and not worry about our animals because we knew Nicole was taking such good care of them! We will definitely be using her services again in the future. Nicole goes above and beyond and truly loves your pets like they’re her own.”
“Adriana was amazing and Bella was well cared for and happy. Adriana went above and beyond with our home and pup and it was a pleasure to arrive home to a house that was in much better shape than when we left. And we had a constant stream of happy pictures of Bella on top of everything else! Our pup has some health issues which Adriana handled like a pro and I was able to be away for a couple days and feel that Bella was well cared for in our absence. I would not hesitate to have Adriana back again to take care of Bella.”
About: I love to play and interact with dogs and keep them fit and healthy. Getting to know their personalities and preferences is fun AND entertaining! I'm an educator, so I'm used to following a plan, detail-oriented and wanting to please both the pet and owner. I offer mostly care for pets who need individualized attention in a private setting wiithout other pets. I offer complimentary walks during day care and overnights! I currently work from home, and have flexible availability. I do project work and school so I can work my schedule around appointments. I have weekend hours open on continuous basis! I walk dogs around parks, keeping distance from cars when I can. I have dedicated space in my home for dogs that need to be crated or have accidents.
“Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for caring for Cooper during our wedding! Samantha is so caring towards our pup, and sends regular updates. We are so grateful to have someone we can rely on to watch our baby!”
About: I can provide reliable care for all life cycles from babies to seniors. I focus on your pet's schedule and work to create soothing care. I have a flexible schedule and can meet morning, afternoon, evening, and late night drop ins for care with a focus on individual pet needs. I care for your pets with drop ins tailored to their needs. Keeping schedules on track helps reduce stress for most animals. I work with you to set up the guidelines of care.
“Meg was absolutely wonderful with our pups! They loved her the moment they met her. She is definitely a dog person. Meg took pictures of the pups during walks and when they were lounging in the living room. They looked so relaxed and chill, not looking as if they were anxiously missing us. She was very diligent in her care for our pups. We have two senior dogs, and one has special needs and she handled them as a pro. We are looking forward to having her watch them again.”
“Tokar was amazing! Our pup has a rather long list of feed and care instructions and Tokar was able to do everything we asked. We had pictures of her relaxing on the couch and she even slept in bed with her on the last night. If that doesn't say that she felt comfort having Tokar here, I don't know what does. It's always nerve-wracking leaving your dog and house in someone's care but I know in future we will have no qualms about using Tokar again.”
About: Hi! I’m Amanda, a nurse and lifelong animal lover who is brand new to Rover and so excited to be here. Caring for others has always been a huge part of who I am, both professionally and personally, and that same level of compassion, patience, and attentiveness carries over into the way I care for pets. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family members. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and anxious, or needs a little extra patience and TLC, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a nurse, safety, reliability, and attention to detail are second nature to me. I take caring for pets very seriously, from secure leashes and locked gates to making sure routines, medications, feeding schedules, and special instructions are followed closely. I know how nerve wracking it can feel leaving your pets with someone new, so my goal is to give you peace of mind while giving your pets lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy making time for pet care throughout my week. I work as a nurse, so being dependable, communicative, and attentive comes naturally to me. I’m excited to be starting my journey on Rover and look forward to building lasting relationships with both pets and their owners Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention to details like secure leashes, closed gates, feeding instructions, medications, and routines to make sure every pet is safe and cared for. As a nurse and lifelong animal lover, I understand how important trust is when leaving your pets with someone, and I’ll care for them like they’re my own.
“I could not have found a better dog sitter. Lisa was simply amazing. She went above and beyond to ensure. Cappy’s happiness, comfort, and well-being. She was compassionate and empathetic, not only towards Cappy, but to me as well, as I am a recent widow. You will not find a more kind or caring dog sitter. I highly recommend Lisa. I assure you, you will not be disappointed.”

Tokar was amazing! Our pup has a rather long list of feed and care instructions and Tokar was able to do everything we asked. We had pictures of her relaxing on the couch and she even slept in bed with her on the last night. If that doesn't say that she felt comfort having Tokar here, I don't know what does. It's always nerve-wracking leaving your dog and house in someone's care but I know in future we will have no qualms about using Tokar again.
Catherine was a blessing when we needed a sitter to stay with our Bella while we attended a family funeral. She was thorough in making sure she understood our care instructions, she was loving in her handling of our pup, and careful and respectful of our home. We have a laundry list of things that go into her meals and she carefully read through and made sure she knew where everything was and how it was administered. I am always a little worried when we leave the pup, but I felt sure that Bella would be in good hands after walking thru things with Catherine. She kept us informed with daily diary entries of the day's events and a stream of pictures of Bella's walks and couch sessions. We would not hesitate to use Catherine again!

FAQs for House Sitting - Point Pleasant
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Point Pleasant on Rover is $81.65 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,581 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Point Pleasant. 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 Point Pleasant 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 Point Pleasant 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 Point Pleasant 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.
