“Tasha was exceptional with my dogs. When I returned home from my weekend trip, my dogs were visibly happy and appeared to have had a wonderful time with her. If you're looking for someone to give your pets all the love and attention they deserve, I highly recommend booking with Tasha. She will ensure they are thoroughly cared for and genuinely loved.”
“I highly recommend Ella as a cat sitter! She has been taking care of my cat, Mitchell for quite some time now, and she never fails to impress. Mitchell absolutely adores her, and they have the most wonderful bond. Whenever Ella comes over, Mitchell recognizes her immediately. It's comforting to know that Mitchell is not only in good hands but also with one of his best friends. Ella is incredibly trustworthy, communicative, and skilled in pet care. I always feel secure knowing Mitchell is well cared for when I'm away. Thank you so much, Ella, for your excellent care and dedication!”

“Amanda did a great job taking care of our 4 kitties! She always sent pictures during her check ins, and she did an excellent job of communicating and coordinating with us. I'd definitely recommend her!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a teenager, starting with stray cats. I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, hamsters, mice, and rats. I currently have birds and a cat. I work from home, and have ample time to take care of people's pets with my current schedule, especially on the weekends. I can also do overnight sittings. I will always follow the instructions of clients when taking care of pets at their homes. When taking care of pets at mine, I have the ability to crate them if needed, and give them space.
About: Since I was about six I have always had dogs in my household. At a young age I learned the responsibilities it takes to be patient, loving, and caring for another living being (pets!). I have had two dogs my whole life, both pit bulls. While I have experience with youthful dogs, I also have experience in taking care of elderly dogs. One of my dogs recently passed away of old age and I took care of her by myself. During the week, I am working from 8am-5pm. I am available before 8am and after 5pm on weekdays. In the weekend, my availability is open and may be scheduled to change. I will not be bringing pets into my home. In regards to care for pets in client’s home, I will follow the directions given to me and ask any questions and/or concerns that come up. It’s all about communication, if I am not sure about something I will simply ask. In the event where I have a question and/or concern and the client does not respond, I will use my best judgement; as I have had dogs all my life.
“Our first experience using someone from Rover to check in on our anxious dog during a weekend away and she did amazing! She was prompt and on time , easy to get ahold of. Additionally, she knew how to deal with our dog who is anxious and uncomfortable around strangers. As the days went on he looked more and more comfortable around her in the pictures she sent to us , which were great btw. We also had an incident where ants came in our house and got into his food and she handled it perfectly and even helped to clean the ants up. Super appreciate Kristin for watching our fur baby. Will be using her again.”
“Breah provided attentive care for my two cats. Kind and detail-oriented, with great communication start to finish. Went the extra mile to contact me when a package arrived early. Will definitely request Breah care for my the next time I travel!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life. I also do dogsitting for friends & family aswell as training my own dogs. I’m used to doing care for senior animals so if your dog needs medications I can do that for you. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of free time to spare. I have an assortment of different pet species and I would love to care for other pets aswell!💛 I have a fenced in yard and 5 dogs of my own. I also own an assortment of different pet species. I do animal fostering that I care for until they get their forever homes. I have several years of experience with dogs & cats of all ages and kinds.
“Another great experience with Stephanie! Timely, competent and dedicated to care of my two cats! Appreciate the peace of mind that I have when my kits are in Stephanie’s care.”
“I am so lucky to have found Laila. We just moved here and I was so nervous about hiring a new sitter. She messaged me when she was on her way, sent me pictures, and spent so much time with them. I already booked her again!”
“Dawna is fantastic. I love seeing the Rover Card photos of my cat and reading the note Dawna leaves after every check-in. I have booked Dawna more than once for my cat and appreciate her care 💕”

I know how hard it is to leave your pet with a sitter because my babies are my world. So it’s very important to me that all parties feel comfortable and your babies get the love comfort they need ! I do work so I love to help people out on weekends which include my off days, I can be flexible during the week i just to need to know in advance so we can work something out ☺️ I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for by sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. I’m a huge advocate for giving animals their space and allowing them to communicate with me through their body language. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, feeding, litter box cleaning, walks if needed, and updates for owners so they can feel at ease while away.
“Paulina is amazing. She was very professional and friendly. She followed our instructions very carefully and was very patient with our two little ones. I would definitely recommend her service to others and book her again in the future.”

Kristin provided wonderful care for my cat. Loved the photo and descriptive updates. She took care of the litter box, litter disposal, checking where my cat had stashed herself, feeding, leaving treats and watching out for the water bowl level. Kristin was respectful of my home and spot on for timing.
Tasha was exceptional with my dogs. When I returned home from my weekend trip, my dogs were visibly happy and appeared to have had a wonderful time with her. If you're looking for someone to give your pets all the love and attention they deserve, I highly recommend booking with Tasha. She will ensure they are thoroughly cared for and genuinely loved.
Cristina was wonderful!! We had a change in schedule at the last minute but, she was able to assist. She communicated extremely well through the whole process, took pictures and provided great notes. When we got home, we returned to what we expected, Excited Pets!!! We will be using Cristina again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fairfield on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,965 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fairfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fairfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Fairfield. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 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.
