About: Responsible, caring, and dependable pet caregiver and proud dog mom with experience providing loving care, walks, feeding, and companionship. I am CPR certified and work as a medical assistant, so safety and attention to detail are very important to me. I treat every pet like family and always provide reliable communication and care. I currently work full time during the week, but I am available on weekends for dog walking and pet sitting. I have flexible availability on Saturdays and Sundays and can accommodate different times as needed I treat all pets as if they were my own. I give them the care and attention they need. I am trustworthy, loving and caring.
“Never have I had such a thorough, thoughtful, and caring sitter for our boys. Would welcome the opportunity to have Rose look after our fur babies anytime in the future. They loved her from the moment they met her. I appreciated the photos, notes and videos she shared while we were away.”
“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.”
“We booked Julie and then woke up to a lot of snow on the morning of the first walk. Despite the deep snow Julie turned up on time and was amazing with our young pup. Who she had walking beautifully in minutes. Raven loves you Julie !”
“Sean loves dogs and they love him back! I just mention his name to my Labradoodle, Doris and she perks up and gets ready for her walk! Sean is punctual and flexible which really helps on a day to day basis. Five stars for Sean because he is professional, kind and motivated!”

About: I am 21 years old and a student at Fairfield University! I have lots of open hours and flexibility, especially during week days! I have lived with dogs my whole life.

I love dogs, long walks, and cuddles— so what’s better than dog sitting and walking?!

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 July 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 July 2026, there are 4,463 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:
- 90% 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.
