sits provably completed in Hood River in the last 12 months
Only 62 Hood River listings have resolved inside our measurement window so far — below the 100 we require before publishing a fill rate, where a proportion still carries a wide interval. Rather than print a number that would mostly be noise, this slot stays empty until the sample is real. What we can already say: at least 382 sits have provably completed in Hood River since 2015, 124 of them in the last 12 months — each one required a chosen sitter, so this market does fill, at a pace our 48-hour instrument hasn't yet measured. The supply and chaining figures below are counts, not estimates, and carry no such floor.
Too few open listings here to describe a typical stay length.

Do house sits actually get filled in Hood River?
Yes — at least 382 sits have provably completed in Hood River since 2015, 124 of them ending in the last 12 months. A completion requires a chosen sitter, so every one had at least one real application. These are floors from listing histories, and they cannot be turned into a fill rate: sits that went unfilled leave no trace, so there is no denominator.
