About: Your animals are in good hands here. I'm a warm, attentive sitter who genuinely loves dogs and cats at every age and stage. Whether your animal is young and energetic or slowing down into their golden years, they'll get unhurried, thoughtful care tailored to exactly who they are. Stays and walks with me include lots of outdoor time, plenty of snuggles, and real one on one attention. I also have experience caring for senior dogs with specific needs, including joint issues, anxiety, medication routines, and sensory changes, so if your dog requires a little extra consideration, you're in the right place. You'll receive regular photos and updates, and the kind of peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is with someone who takes this seriously. Every dog deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. That's what I'm here for. I work remotely so care is available 24/7. Im around for walks morning & evening, and available to communicate and send pics throughout your pets stay. I provide extra love and care to make sure your pet is fed, exercised, loved on, and super happy while you're away. I will send pics while you're gone so you can see what a wonderful time we're having together.

About: With me, your pup gets more than a sitter they get a certified trainer, enrichment guide, and loving companion. I specialize in positive reinforcement and behavioral support to help dogs feel safe, seen, and celebrated. Walks and stays are filled with treats, agility strolls, massages, homemade goodies, and even arts and crafts (yes, paw print paintings included). Plus, they’ll get sweet companionship from my two Labradors, Roxii and Chloe. You’ll receive pro-quality photos, helpful tips, and high-touch care that goes far beyond the basics — because your dog deserves VIP love, every time. Pet care is part of my everyday lifestyle with full availability for evening walks, drop-ins, and training support. I am completely open for longer stays, enrichment sessions, behavior training, or doggy day experiences. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or a full day of fun, your pup will have my full attention and care. Whether I’m welcoming your pup into my home or caring for them in yours, I create a safe, nurturing environment rooted in trust and routine. I follow your dog’s schedule closely, from feeding and potty breaks to play and rest and always keep their comfort and emotional well-being top of mind. At my home, pets have a cozy, calm space with supervised playtime, plenty of enrichment, and the loving presence of my two sweet Labradors, Roxii and Chloe. I keep a clean, organized environment and introduce all pets slowly and mindfully. In your home, I treat your space with deep respect and ensure your dog feels secure and at ease while you’re away. I maintain consistent communication, send updates with photos, and follow house rules exactly as you request. Above all, I show up with patience, presence, and care to building trust with both you and your dog.

I highly recommend Ali’s services. I was looking for a sitter who not only loves my cats as her own but understands subtle changes in their health during my vacation. One of my cats is over 12 years old so I needed a sitter with veterinary skills and knowledges. I am glad that I have chosen Ali for my cats and will ask her again for next vacations. Her services are beyond my expectations.

Kristen was a saving grace. When intended prep for Kristen’s visit with my Zuri went out the window on the day of my sister’s wedding (e.g., preparing food and other provisions), Kristen unfazed by the chaos (at least that was my impression) handled it. She was very communicative, patient and just utterly amazing with Zuri. I had a lot of anxiety leading up to Kristen’s visit knowing I didn’t prep things as I intended and advised her I would. From the moment she arrived she put me at ease that all would be well, and it was. I am so thankful for her and would recommend her to anyone. Bravo!

About: I have always loved pets. I have had dogs in my home since I was 4 years old. I promise to care and love for your fur baby as if they were my own. I’m a teacher so I have summers off. I’d love to spend my summer in the sun playing, walking and caring for your pets. I have a pretty flexible schedule and would love to work with your sweet fur baby. I have a fenced in yard, and lots of space in my home for your pets to ply. I also have the ability to crate your pet inside if needed.

Zoe was Great with our quite energetic westie/scottie mix. We will definitely be using her to take care of Minnie in the future. Thank you so much for treating our dog as you would your own!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fairfield on Rover is $21.4 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 23 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
