“Danielle was terrific. She sent daily videos or photos of our 2 little Shorkies. She took care of everything at our home, including taking out our 3 big trashcans to the curb on trash day and bringing them back in later in the day. We were able to really enjoy our vacation knowing that Danielle was here at our home and making sure our boys were well taken care of.”
“Ellyn was great with our rescue Labradoodle. She is wary of new people but liked Ellyn at our meet and greet. Ellyn sent daily action shots and coordinated with us. We highly recommend Ellyn!”
“Bob was an amazing sitter for our corgi and husky! He was on time for both the meet & greet and the actual booking, and was very professional and kind throughout the entire experience. He sent us multiple daily updates, photos, and videos, and it was clear both dogs were getting lots of playtime, attention, and love. Our corgi usually gets extra emotional when we come home, but this time she seemed so happy and relaxed, which really showed us how well cared for they were. Our house was also left in great condition. We’re very happy with Bob and will definitely book with him again!”
“Stephanie was fantastic with my sweet and spicy Cattle Dog. Went above and beyond, kept me informed with great photos, cleaned up and washed bedding (didn’t have to). I’ll definitely use her again!”
“Eli took great care of Kona and our house while we were away. He was very responsive before our trip, and sent great updates while he was staying with Kona. We look forward to him dog and house sitting for us again soon.”
“Luis was so great! He was super communicative, and gave updates/photos on how both of the dogs were doing. We are incredibly grateful to have found him, and will be booking with him in the future!”
“Kaylan was an amazing sitter from start to finish! If my dogs could write this rating, I’m sure they’d give her 5 stars. She sent frequent updates, lots of pictures, and wasn’t afraid to ask questions whenever she needed clarification, which gave me peace of mind. She even took my pups on little adventures to explore new parks and treated them to pup cups, with permission of course! It’s obvious they were cared for, and got lots of love and attention while we were away at work. I came home to 2 happy pups and a cared for home. Would definitely recommend Kaylan for a reliable, caring sitter and happily booking her again!”
“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!”
“Nataliya has been wonderful for our family while we are visiting the San Diego area on vacation. She has been willing to take Ember so that we can do some activities that puppies can’t join. She took Ember out to the beach to explore, and was fantastic with her specific needs (avoiding overstimulation, managing some bits of training that are still ongoing because she is a puppy). We really appreciate that Nataliya was available without tons of notice, and that she was able to watch Ember 1:1 because even though our pup loves playing with other dogs, she gets really anxious initially. For one-off engagements, it seemed more distress than it would be worth to go through introductions to other dogs. Thank you for Ember’s good day out and the help, Nataliya!”
“Paige was excellent! She took great care of our dogs and made sure to tend to their specific needs/schedules. She even came to meet them ahead of time to make sure they felt comfortable with her!”
“Wendy is Amazing . Super punctual and very patient w my high energy/ playful gsd. No negative remarks I heard from her though my dog charge when she enters the door. I will definitely book w her again. Thank you Wendy🙏”
“Marisol was unbelievable and took incredible care of my dog. She was a true professional and the communication the entire time was A+ relieving any concerns I had of leaving my pet alone for the first time. Would highly recommend and she’ll be my first call going forward anytime I need a dog sitter”
“Alexa just watched our golden retriever Ruby, and she did a great job! Ruby is really calm and happy, and the house looks great. We’d definitely hire Alexa again. Highly recommend!”
“Lizbeth was amazing! She really went above and beyond for my cat and she took such great care of him, was super responsive, and sent me the cutest photos and videos every day. It was his first birthday while she was taking care of him and she even got him a birthday hat and bandana and sent me the best photos ever, genuinely could not recommend anyone more!”
“Rachel was amazing!! She house-sat for me for a week soon after I got a now 15 week old puppy, and she took amazing care of him. He is very high maintenance right now, but she kept up his schedule and entertained and trained him without any issues! She was very professional and communicative. She kept me updated with frequent pictures and updates. While it would be easy for the puppy to take all the attention, she also gave love and attention to my cat and kept me updated on him as well. I would definitely trust her as a house sitter again.”
“Beckie is the best! She creatively solved problems with the housing situation, took amazing care of the animals, communicated extremely thoroughly and professionally. We hope to have another opportunity for her to care for our pack in the future!”
“Josette did a wonderful job of taking care of our three dogs. She is responsive, reliable, was great with giving medications to our senior dog, providing updates and pictures. She stayed at our home while we were away, which we love because both my husband and I work from home. Our dogs are used to having someone at home almost all day long. She also walked our dogs in the morning and in the evening. She played ball with our dogs a few times a day in the backyard. She is also clean and tidy. She washed all the towels and bedding that she used. We did not expect that at all. We’re so grateful to have found her. She loves animals and understands a dogs’ body language. We will be returning clients. We highly recommend Josette to take care of your pets.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fairbanks Ranch
Paige was absolutely wonderful with King! She took great care of him, made sure he got plenty of walks and attention, and kept me updated. King can be a strong dog, and it was clear she was confident and comfortable handling him, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. I truly appreciated the love and attention she gave him. I wouldn't hesitate to book with Paige again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and capable dog sitter!
Rachel is very experienced with dogs, especially large dogs. Ours is particular; Rachel got down on her level at their first meeting, and it was all good from there on! She kept us updated with photos and notes during her stay. I will definitely call Rachel the next time we need a dog sitter!
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!
Luciana was a blessing to me and my pup. She house/dog sat for me and took excellent care of Juliet. She followed instructions exactly as expected and left the house spotless. She sent me daily updates and photos so I knew all was well. She is trustworthy and dependable. I highly recommend Luciana.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fairbanks Ranch
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fairbanks Ranch on Rover is $70 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 7,242 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fairbanks Ranch. 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 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.
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 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fairbanks Ranch. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
