“Suzanne was lovely! She was able to help us last minute and did a wonderful job! She stayed in touch the whole time and sent update pictures! She even helped with some dishes and laundry!”
“Jasmin has watched our dogs before and she always does such a great job. One of our dogs is on a raw diet with probiotics galore and she does great with all the instructions. Such a lifesaver to have her stay in our house as our senior dog has never stayed anywhere else. We are blessed to have found her as our go-to gal! She gets our mail and keeps our plants alive which is just an added bonus! Thank you!”

About: I raised my own dog and cared for her until she was 13 years old, which gave me invaluable, hands-on experience through every stage of a dog's life. Because of our long journey together, I am especially attuned to the gentle, patient care that senior dogs require, understanding their unique needs and comfort levels. I am excited to bring that same dedication, love, and attentive care to your furry family members, whether they are energetic puppies or relaxed seniors. My daily routine is highly structured and reliable, allowing me to easily incorporate dedicated time for pet care. I am an early riser who is committed to a daily fitness routine, making me a great fit for energetic morning walks or active play sessions. Whether it's sticking to a strict feeding schedule or ensuring your pet gets their daily exercise, my organized lifestyle means your pets will always receive consistent, on-time care. Safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. I have a fenced yard and a trail in my neighborhood great for your fur baby! Having raised my own dog through her senior years to age 13, I am deeply familiar with pet-proofing spaces, monitoring for hazards, and handling pets with gentle care. I love dogs and have grown up with dogs all my life! Our neighborhood has great paths for walks. Please bring their food, treats and a food bowl. Also, a leash, and a harness if needed, for walks. You are welcome to bring a dog bed, blanket, or anything that would help them feel comfortable.

I am available to watch your pet pretty much any time of day and night. I have a fully fenced yard and also have crates in my home if needed. I am comfortable using crates as I have crate trained all of my dogs.

“I had a great experience with Gaby (Shannon)! This was my first time using Rover and having a house sitter for Belford, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. She made the whole process easy and reassuring. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. On top of that, Gaby went above and beyond by washing the bed sheets—even though it wasn’t required—which was such a thoughtful touch. My home was left in great condition, making coming back even better. I’d absolutely book with Gaby again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive pet sitter!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,667 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fairchilds. 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 Fairchilds 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 Fairchilds 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 Fairchilds 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.
