About: I grew up on a farm in the midwest where i’ve always been surrounded by all sorts of animals. We’ve fostered and owned almost every dog you can imagine; from tiny Maltese to huge king Corso’s to mutts and everything in between. I currently travel too much to have a dog of my own, but that’s why I dog sit everywhere i go! I work in food service & clean air bnbs so my routine changes most days; however, it also allows me to be flexible week to week depending on what i have to do. So however your animal needs cared for can be fit into my schedule! I can guarantee that your animals routine and comfort will be my highest priority. I take animal care very seriously because I understand how important it is not only for the owner, but for the animal to have a non stressful environment. any instructions will be followed to a t to insure maximum trust and comfort on all sides :)

About: I’ve had animals all my life l. From small dogs, large dogs, cats and even a few rabbits. I’m especially great with dogs who have special diets and/or need regular medications. I work full-time but with a semi flexible schedule. I am happy to check in on pets mid day. I’m also free most evenings and weekends. I treat every pet like they’re my own! I take the time to learn their routine, favorite activities, and individual quirks so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles, meals, medication, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need.

So my availability will be open after 3pm. Monday-Saturday. Sundays are completely open. For my friends and family its usually at their place, I myself live alone so would have completely no distraction. Also live very close to a dog park.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats since I was a child. They are not like family, they are family. Many friends and relatives have entrusted me to care for their pets for short and long stays at my home where they receive love, attention, play, and care. When caring for your pets, they will not be alone for more than 4 hours at a time during the weekday. Evenings and weeknights they will not be alone for more than an hour at a time. I have a large fenced yard and close access to a public park for walks. I enjoy playing with animals and giving them attention and care.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 8 years old and have been house sitting and pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for the past 5 years. Throughout that time, I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, or simply providing companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to give owners peace of mind by providing dependable, attentive care. I typically work Saturday through Wednesday from 6:00am to 3:00pm. During these hours, I may be away for my shift, but I always make sure pets are cared for before I leave and immediately after I return. I plan my schedule around their needs as much as possible and communicate clearly with owners to ensure their pet’s routine stays consistent and comfortable. I care for pets by ensuring they are fed, have fresh water, receive plenty of exercise and attention, and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s regular routine, so I always do my best to follow their schedule for meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and bedtime. I also have experience administering medications. I’ve cared for a diabetic dog that required medication every morning and evening, as well as a senior dog with arthritis who needed oral medication each night. I know how important consistency is, and I’m committed to following each pet’s care instructions closely to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable.

About: Growing up my family had 3 dogs at the minimum. On top of that of that I grew up on a farm so I'm used to taking care of lots of different animals. I love animals and love exercise so it's a perfect fit. I have a part time job I have to work around. but there's usually a few hours a day I can take care of your best friends. I don't offer a pet sitting service.But I would happily visit your home, take your animal on a walk and feed them, give them water, and make sure they are as comfortable as possible.

About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.

About: I’m an animal science major with lots of different animal experience! I foster with local shelters, extern at a local veterinary office, and pride myself in research/care I’ve taken with my own animals and others. I’m currently a full time student MSU. Most of my classes are first thing in the morning, then I’m available for the rest of the day. I have a completely fenced 1 acre yard with 3 personal dogs who are completely used to new interesting dogs from previous fosters. I kennel all of my dogs and all meals are given separated. No animal in my house is left alone together unsupervised.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Fair Grove

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fair Grove is $89 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $89 and $89 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 413 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fair Grove. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fair Grove. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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.
