“Summer is fantastic with our puppy, Finley! She provides excellent communication before, during, and after caring for him. She is very detailed in her Rover card reports and provides adorable photos, too! She is extremely reliable and we feel so comfortable leaving Finley home knowing that Summer will take great care of him.”
“Bradley took great care of my Griffen. Although, Griffen was happy to see me, he would have been happy to see Bradley. It was nice to go away for a few days and not have to worry about Griffen.”
“We love Michelle. Not a single worry when we have her stop in to see our goofy girl Hydi. Very professional and it’s a comfort knowing we can spend a few days away. Kitty is happy as well.”
About: For the past four years, I’ve been the dedicated sitter for a family who entrusts me with their pets every time they travel. I care for both their 2 dogs (Golden Aussie and Brindle Pitbull) and 2 senior cats, handling everything from feeding and playtime to clean up and companionship. I grew up with dogs and birds, and currently have a cat of my own, so I’m comfortable with animals of all kinds. I’m reliable, observant, and truly love spending time with animals—whether it’s a high-energy walk or a calm cuddle session. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I work full-time, but pet care is still a meaningful part of my routine. I’m available for boarding on weekends and for drop-ins or walks in the early mornings, evenings, and some lunch hours depending on your location. I’m used to coordinating around a work schedule, and I always make time for the animals in my care—they’re never an afterthought. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize safety, routine, and respect for your space. I follow instructions exactly, stay in close communication, and treat your home and animals with care. Whether it's keeping up with feeding times, administering medication, or helping your pet feel less alone while you're away, I bring a calm and reliable presence to every visit.
About: Hi! My name is Sierra, and I am an artist, athlete, and am generally pretty active around town and in community events. I'd love to meet you and your pets! I grew up in a home with cats and have always been a passionate pet owner. My own cat is 17 and healthy, but I love spending time with dogs too. In my teens, in college, and through adulthood, I've pet-sat for many dogs over the years in order to spend more time with them and learn about their behaviors and needs. I've always wanted my own but have been too mobile to make a full-time commitment. My loss is your gain! I've worked with reactive and non-reactive dogs, small dogs and large dogs, and puppies and elderly dogs. I am very comfortable with animals and, due to my active nature, love taking them on walks around town or at the park. I am happy to also stay home with them if they're in their golden years or are less mobile. I will likely want to know a fair bit about your dog or cat when we first meet to ensure they are well cared for in your absence and to ensure I am prepared and aware of their behaviors if we are around other people and/or other animals. The same rules apply for kitties! I love cat sitting too. All in all, I love animals and genuinely enjoy taking them for walks, spending time with them, and making sure they feel loved. I have some experience working with sheep as well, so if you are on a farm or have other livestock, I'd love to help out in that regard too! I hope to own my own small farm someday. Thanks! I am currently working as an artist and researcher, so I have a flexible schedule. This means I can adjust my schedule to suit your needs and can stay overnight if needed. I will likely ask a lot of questions the first time I dog/cat sit for you. Knowing your pet's routine and their preference is very important to me to make sure I am prepared to take good care of them in your absence. I appreciate detailed instructions for house sitting, especially to make sure your pet is as comfortable and happy as can be while you are away. I do not mind if you'd like photo or text updates throughout the time you are away, so you can rest assured your pet is in good hands. I feel the same when I am traveling! For walks and such, I will still have a few questions to ensure I know how to best care for your pet while interacting with other animals and people. I am able-bodied and active and love walks at all times a day to get my (and their) steps in!
“Thank you so much Haley for taking care of our fur babies! We were so appreciative to get updates and pictures and know that they were okay while we took a date night. We’ll be booking again, for sure!”

About: I’ve taken care of of dogs and cats since I could remember. Neighbors, parents friends, or even my friends would ask me to help watch or spend time with their loved animals, I always found meeting new dogs and cats exciting and getting to know their personalities and grow with them quite rewarding, I have 2 dogs of my own and a cat which I am very committed to taking care of and ensuring they live long, happy, and healthy lives. I will always treat any animal as it’s my own, with love, care, and affection. I currently am working 7-3 Wednesday-Sunday and have time after that to take care of any loving pets, as well as my own as I spend time with them and fit their needs, I am dedicated to being able to come right after work, or any event in order to ensure your pet is well taken care of I treat any pet as their are my own. I have trained my dogs to be able to go outside in a unfenced backyard and remain on our property, by rewarding self control, and urges to run off they are skilled well in being able to be outside on their own and when to alert me to be let outside to use the bathroom. Inside the home there are many toys and beds for them to live a comfy and playful life inside with a safe environment for my pets.
About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life and have always had a huge soft spot for them! I currently have four pets of my own: a Rottweiler, an Australian Shepherd, a Maine Coon, and an orange kitty. Having such a variety of pets has given me plenty of firsthand experience with different breeds, sizes, energy levels, and personalities. From big, playful dogs to independent cats, I’m comfortable adapting to each animal’s individual needs and routines. I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pets. They’re family, and I would treat yours just like my own! Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to give your pets the love, patience, and attention they deserve while you’re away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for! I work a fairly flexible schedule, which allows me to make time for pet care throughout the week! I’m happy to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and other pet care needs whenever my schedule allows. Having four pets of my own, I’m already accustomed to making feeding, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention part of my daily routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and would love to make caring for yours part of my week! I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll always respect your space and do my best to keep their normal routines consistent. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, walks, or special preferences. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and comfort level, and I’m always happy to send pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in good hands!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for my own dog, my 1 year old Great Dane, which has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, feeding routines, and lots of love! I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to making sure every animal in my care feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they receive attentive, reliable, and compassionate care. Boarding is open 24/7. For walking and checking in on pets, I currently have openings on weekdays starting at 6pm, overnights and all weekends. House sitting will be available 6pm to 6am and all weekends as well. I provide loving, attentive care for pets in my home or yours, always making their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. In my home, I can provide a welcoming environment with 5 acres of property, playtime, potty breaks, walks, fresh water, and meals according to your pet’s regular routine. I also have soft crates if needed. I understand that being away from their family can be stressful for pets, so I strive to make them feel comfortable, secure, and loved. When caring for pets in their own home, I will follow your instructions closely to maintain their normal routine and help them feel safe in their familiar surroundings. I can assist with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and keeping their space clean. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. As a dog owner myself, I know pets are family, and I will treat yours with the same love, patience, and care I give my own.
“Rachel was wonderful. She was available on very short notice, introduced herself, and most importantly, my cat was fully satisfied in all needs - especially attention. Rachel promptly returned the keys. We will definitely hire her again.”

Emelia had something come up during the 2 week time frame of taking care of our cat, Beans. She was very responsible and communicated very quickly so another solution could be figured out for just 1 of the visits she could not do. Beans loves all the attention and play time she receives during her visits! Would definitely recommend! Thank you!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fair Plain is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $31 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 294 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fair Plain. 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 Plain. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
