“I had such a positive experience with Dominique caring for my 1 and half year old pup and would hire her again! She has great calming energy and she sent plenty of updates about walks, feedings or playing. I thought her communication was great and most importantly, my dog Dory really loved her. I came home to a clean house as well. I’m happy I found her on here!”
“Daisy is kind, responsible, and super easy to work with. We have a pup with mild separation anxiety as she just moves into a new space and Daisy took great care of her. Will definitely rebook!”
About: While I’m new to Rover, I have hands on experience from taking care of friends’ and extended families’ pets. However I have the most experience caring for my best friend’s family dog, Cody, whenever they travel out of town. I stay in their home so Cody can remain comfortable in his familiar environment and keep his normal routine. My responsibilities have included regular walks, feeding on his usual schedule, giving medication on schedule, and helping with his everyday hygiene, such as wiping his paws after walks and cleaning him up after he goes to the bathroom. I’m comfortable paying attention to the little details that help a dog feel happy, clean, safe, and cared for. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, attentive, and willing to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I understand that every dog has their own personality and preferences, and I’ll treat your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available throughout the week and can accommodate different routines, including walks and drop-ins. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual schedule and needs. I provide pet care exclusively in my client’s home, where I can keep their pets comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I follow their usual routines while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I also make sure their home is kept clean and cared for while they are away.
“Iulia is a wonderful, caring person who did a fantastic job watching Bella over the 2017 New Years holiday. She was a lifesaver when we had air travel delays and had to extend for a day. Weve found both a Bella AND family friend. THANKS!”
“Josette sat with our 3 dogs from 9:30am-6:00pm. She gave them love, lots of walks and fed them. She is very reliable and very responsible. I would definitely call her again!”
“Eli is the best! He is a great communicator and sends pics of your pets having fun. He follows care instructions. We have him stay at the house. When we return the house is always cleaner then we left it. Our animals water is full and the kitty litter clean upon our return. Book him quick, his schedule fills up!”
“Carmella was awesome. We were out of the country for 10 days and she took great care of our pup while we were away. She is observant and picked up on his little quirks in no time. Left the house spotless too. Very fast to respond which helped a sometimes anxious dog mom like me! Highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter”
“Kristen was everything we could have hoped for and more for our fur pups while we were away. I am always nervous leaving them but she had the best communication sending videos and pictures with updates. I could tell that they were happy and well cared for. We came home to a very clean house and pups and we will definitely be asking for Kristen again. Thank you for the best time for us all during our vacation. :)”
“Serena is the best! She’s so reliable and loved my dog like hers. She really took the time to get to know my pup and was so understanding of all his little quirks. Honestly, I think Tori fell in love with her! It’s such a relief finding someone who cares this much. We’ll definitely be rebooking!”
“Patricia was amazing! We did a meet and greet before staying at our house while we were traveling, she was on time, very professional and very sweet. She communicated very well throughout the process and was very attentive to any needs of our dogs. Everything went perfectly for our first time using Rover and Patricia, we will definitely be using her again.”
“Crystal was amazing! She helped us last minute and worked with our changing schedule. She did a good job of accommodating all of Roxxys needs. I can tell that Roxxy made a new friend! I would definitely recommend her!”

“Lauren is genuinely the best! We’ve been traveling a lot more than usual and it’s always hard leaving our fur babies but we know when Lauren is with them they’re having the best time and she’s treating them like they’re her own! Our dog & kitty get sooo excited to see her. She always keeps us updated with pictures & always leaves our place cleaner than the way we left it! If you’re looking for someone to love on your fur babies, keep them safe & spoil them, then you’ve found your perfect person!”
“This is probably the 3rd or 4th time having Sarah house sit and pet sit and there will be many more to come! She’s an awesome guest to have and always leaves the house clean and the pets well cared for! Our favorite thing is she always keeps up very well updates when we are away with photos and videos! She’s amazing!”
“Dustin was the perfect dog/housesitter! He stayed with our pup while we were away for about a week, and did a great job keeping in contact with beautiful photographs of our dog, as well as taking excellent care of our home. He is a natural with dogs and immediately connected with our dog at their initial meeting. Would definitely recommend Dustin and have him back again next time!!”
“Clarise did a wonderful job watching our 10yo Irish setter while we were on vacation. She kept us updated of how he was doing, sent pictures, and generally communicated very well. He was clearly well cared for and relaxed when we were gone. I would absolutely recommend her as a dogsitter.”
“Mckinley did a great job taking care of our older lab and young one year old lab. She kept their routine and spent time at home with them so they could stay out and play. I was updated regularly and felt completely confident that they were happy and safe:)”
About: Your dog gets a cozy home with a private fenced patio, a doggy door, and the beach just 3 minutes away for walks and fresh ocean air. ⠀ I was a dog mom for 17 years to a rescue pup I found off the street, so I know how to read a dog's needs, moods, and quirks. I've been the go-to sitter for friends and neighbors, and I give every dog the same attention I gave my own. ⠀ With my background in Reiki and sound healing, I bring a little extra calm to your dog's stay, with optional gentle Reiki and sound experiences tailored to their comfort. I'm patient, present, and truly love dogs. Beach walks, quiet afternoons, whatever your dog needs to feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while you're away. 🐶🐾 I'm home almost every day, with only about five days a month in LA for work, so your dog gets my full attention. I'm an avid walker and love having a four-legged companion with me. ⠀ You can expect calm, attentive care, regular walks, easy patio and doggy-door access, consistent feeding, and lots of play and affection. I check in often and send updates throughout the stay. ⠀ At the end of every stay, I send a short video compilation of your dog's days, a little keepsake to come home to. 🎥🐾 Your dog's safety comes first. My patio is fully fenced, and I'm home almost every day, so your dog is never left alone for long. I follow your routine for feeding, walks, and any medications, and if anything comes up, you'll hear from me right away.
“Africa did amazing with our little boy. He has big separation anxiety. She was patient, kind, and provided several updates throughout the day. Aside from family members she is the only other person we trust with our dog. Will definitely be using her services again!”

Reshini is awesome! We can’t wait to have her back to dog-sit again. She took such amazing care of our sweet pup and our home while we were away. Her communication was wonderful, and getting regular pictures and updates gave us so much peace of mind and made our trip much less stressful. We highly recommend her! 🐾❤️
Karen was a great dog sitter for our new puppy. She immediately understood our concerns and reassured us with her calm, caring and professional demeanor. During the evening she sent photos and text updates. Birdie clearly liked being with her and trusted her. We would book her again and recommend her to others.
Alec did a fantastic job caring for our dog and cat while we were away for a week. Our dog has anxiety issues, so finding someone patient and reliable is especially important to us. Alec kept us updated and gave both pets excellent care and attention. We came home to two happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for furry babies. We would happily recommend Alec to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.
Shirlene took wonderful care of my dog, Barnaby, while we were away. She was great about sending updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. 🐶 I came home to a house that was actually cleaner and more organized than when we left! Barnaby was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I returned, which says everything. Shirlene went way above and beyond, and I would absolutely book with her again!

The average cost of House Sitting in Fairbanks Ranch is $70 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $109 per night.

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 Fairbanks Ranch 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 Fairbanks Ranch 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Fairbanks Ranch 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 , 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 .
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
