About: I have had dogs all my life. As well as dog sitter for friends and family. On top of basic care such as feeding and walking I can also bathe and groom them. I am home for the summer so I have an open schedule to care for your dog at anytime you need. Including weekends and holidays. In my home I have a friendly dog who loves to make friends. I take dogs on long walks through the hiking trail next to my home.

“A fantastic relationship through and through. Kim is extremely responsive to communications. Her interaction with my little dog Fred - who is very shy and tentative with new people - was great. She reassured me during my trip that Fred was doing well and interacted with Kim very well. I am grateful for the sitting / home visits Kim provided. I would not hesitate to use Kim in the future.”


About: I have over 40 years experience caring for dogs and animals. My experience includes employment with a veterinarian, employment at a kennel, and a lifetime of dog ownership. We custom built our home to be a perfect paradise for a dog's life. We have a beautiful fenced in private backyard that offers a grass area, deck area, and a woods area for those adventuresome puppies! We have a dog door for those dog guests that want frequent outings or door service by us for those less ambitious doggies. A typical day at doggy paradise includes numerous supervised romps in the fenced in backyard, walks in the neighborhood, lots of love, and plenty of water and meals as per owners instructions. As a little background we just lost our last two dogs within the past two years, one to old age, and one young to cancer. We still want dogs in our life so we are now boarding. Note: An additional daily surcharge will be collected for dogs over 55lbs, details will be addressed at booking depending on dogs weight and age. Thank you Full time care. We will take great care of your pet in our home and fenced in backyard. Typically there is an adult present for full 24 hr care. I have a fenced in yard where dogs are let out. I follow your specific dogs instructions and routine, depending on what they are used to.

“Rachel did a great job taking care of my dog Winnie. He's 14 years old and needs extra attention. Rachel sent me feedback and helped Winnie out when he needed it. I highly recommend her, Charlie”

About: I have grown so fond of taking care of fur babies the more years I do it. I enjoy working with all different breeds and building a connection to the pets I take care of. I’ve learn to work with all ages, breeds, behaviors. The best part? Knowing that people entrust me to bring their fur babies back to me, and knowing that the dogs are excited to return. I have a part time job currently so I have plenty of time to be with your pet(s) whenever I’m not at work, so it’s flexible. I like to thoroughly ask questions about the dog I’ll be taking care of (food, any medications? Exercise? Do they like to play? Etc.) I want to make sure not only yourself but the dog is as comfortable as can be.
About: I have experience caring for dogs in many ways, including: dog walking, play dates with other dogs, overnight dog sitting when the family is traveling and need help to stay with the dog those days they are away from home, or sometimes I have the authorization to bring them to my house, and daytime care. Through those years taking care of dogs I had a privilege to take care of 3/4 dogs at the same time, providing individualized attention and care to each furry companion. Dedicated to providing love and affection, I ensure that every dog in my care receives utmost comfort and attention. Prioritizing your dog's happiness and safety, our time together includes enjoyable walks in the park, fun playdates with other pups, and plenty of cuddles. Rest assured, your furry friend will always be in capable and caring hands with me. I'm currently working part-time, having time to dedicate to the dogs under my care. I prioritize their well-being by scheduling regular walks, play sessions, and ensuring they receive the attention they need throughout the day. I adjust my schedule to fit their needs, whether it's taking them for walks in the morning before I start work, checking in on them during the day, or spending quality time cuddling with them in the evening. Taking care of these furry friends isn't just a duty for me, it's a source of joy and fulfillment that enriches my daily life. In my house, I provide secure, worry-free environment for your beloved pets. I have a medium fenced backyard where I can take the dog to go potty and a great and friendly dog neighbor. My priority is to give the pet attention and make sure they will have love, and protection the whole stay!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fairfield
I highly recommend Olivia! We have a ten year old golden doodle with a lot of anxiety. Our dog has never been cared for by anyone other than family while we have been away so Olivia was the first to dog sit for us and she did an amazing job. In a few short days she built a trusting relationship with our dog and was able to walk her. We returned home to a happy and well cared for dog. We will definitely rely on Olivia to take care of our dog when we travel again. Thank you Olivia!

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.
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 Fairfield 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!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Fairfield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
