About: I have loved and taken care of my 3 dogs during the past 10 years since they were puppies. In addition, I have also taken care of my friends' pets while they were traveling. I enjoy spoiling and caring for pets and will make sure they are happy. I'm currently working part-time time and I am available during a variety of times throughout the week to help care for your fur baby. Every day, I feed and walk my dogs in the morning and in the afternoon and spend time playing with them throughout the day. I regularly check if they need anything and make sure they get their medications on time. I will make sure to take care of my client pets in a caring manner similar to my own fur babies and follow all of my client's care instructions
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life (currently have a 17 year old dog!). I have taken care of friends and family members pets for about 2 years. I’m currently working full time as a registered behavioral technician. I am also receiving my masters part time. I am hoping to work on weekends and 5pm or later on week days. I have a fenced back yard and a sweet Bichon Frise that is 17 years old. At a clients home I make sure the pet is cared for and safe.
“Maly is amazing. She watched our two standard poodles for 10 days! That is a lot of dog for 10 days. She is kind, communicative, helpful…responsible - all of the things. You would be lucky to have her care for your pets. Our dogs love her - and aren’t they the best reviewers????”
“Thank you so much! Appreciate you giving Didion his walk and medicine. He seemed like he did well especially given that he hadn’t met you prior to his walk. Thank you, Dani, for being reliable and trustworthy.”
“Our recent experience with Kris and Angelica, who cared for our dogs in our home for five days while we traveled, was excellent. They were responsible, punctual, thorough, caring, friendly, experienced, flexible, and attentive to our dogs’ individual needs. Before our trip, Kris and Angelica came by to meet us and our dogs, which made us feel much more comfortable. We have two large German Shepherds with very different personalities and needs—one is young, energetic, reactive, and challenging to walk, while the other is older, slower, very friendly, and easygoing. Kris and Angelica handled both dogs with care and confidence, and kept them happy and well cared for while we were away. I left detailed instructions for feeding, walking, and daily routines, and they followed everything carefully. Since we rarely travel without our dogs, we were naturally a bit nervous about leaving them. Kris and Angelica made it easy for us to relax and enjoy our trip. They sent frequent updates and photos each day, and whenever questions came up, communication was immediate and easy. I highly recommend Kris and Angelica, and they will absolutely be my first call for future trips when our pups can’t come with us.”
“Kristen was great with Levi. He really enjoyed his time with her and their walks. She took care of feeding and walking Levi while we were away. She was very responsible and took pictures for us. We look forward to using Kristen again for future trips we have.”
About: I have been babysitting for my neighbors, friends, and family. They really rely on me to take care of their babies when they are on vacation, at work, or running late. They have also asked me to run home and take care of their animals. I'm currently working a part-time job, so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pups! I'm available on the weekends and weekdays. I have a multiz male dog who is very friendly and playful. He is used to being around other dogs and loves to go to the dog park to play with them.
“I had a last-minute need for a dog walker and was lucky to find Sabrina. She arrived on time, took my dog on a nice, long walk, and even went above and beyond by putting my trash can back. Communication was excellent. Highly recommend!”
About: My name is Clarissa, 29. I currently reside in Black Rock. I grew up with dogs, cats, ferrets, birds, chickens/ducks, you name it! My love for animals began at a very young age! I worked professionally at boarding places and pet hotels in my mid teens till early 20s. But besides attending to my pets I grew up with, starting around the age of 12, I began to care for my neighbors, friends and family’s pets - which I still do till this day and love every moment of it :) I am currently working part-time but my hours are very flexible as I create my own schedule. Your pet would have much time for love and care :) For dogs and cats in my home, they are free to roam around and be on furniture. I live in one bedroom apartment alone, the building is quiet and safe. We have a fence in back yard for dogs, or I can take your dog on a walk, go to the park or a little hike.

I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and free from anything that could harm them. I follow all instructions carefully—like feeding schedules, medication, or routines—so pets feel at ease and stick to what they’re used to. I treat every pet with kindness and patience, giving them the attention and care they deserve. I also keep owners updated so they can feel confident and reassured while they’re away.

I cannot recommend Nic enough! I’ve had many dog walkers over the years, and he is by far the best I’ve ever worked with. From day one, he’s been incredibly professional, communicative, reliable, and genuinely caring with my dog. He always gives detailed updates after every walk, communicates anything important, and truly goes above and beyond. I asked for at least a one-mile walk, and he consistently does close to two miles while still making sure my dog is happy, safe, and comfortable. My dog absolutely adores him and gets so excited knowing he’s coming, which says everything. Nic has such a calm, trustworthy energy about him, and it’s very clear he genuinely loves what he does. As a dog owner, there’s nothing better than knowing your dog is in caring, capable hands. I trust him completely, and anyone looking for a dependable, thoughtful, and amazing dog walker should absolutely hire him.
We can’t say enough good things about Destiny. She has been incredibly helpful during a very difficult time for our family, and her flexibility and kindness have meant the world to us. She took amazing care of our dog, who absolutely loves company, and it was clear from the updates and photos that she felt happy, comfortable, and loved while with her. She goes above and beyond, is extremely dependable, and truly treats your pet like her own. We are so grateful for everything she’s done for us, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and all-around wonderful sitter. Thank you so much, Destiny!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Fairfield on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,391 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Fairfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Fairfield. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Fairfield.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fairfield. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
