“Amanda and Max took such wonderful care of our dog! From the start, Amanda was incredibly responsive and flexible, which made the whole process so easy. While we were away, she sent lots of photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that our dog was having a great time and was being well cared for. We’re so grateful to have found them and would highly recommend Amanda and Max to anyone looking for a reliable and caring place for their dog!”

“I was so fortunate to find Amy just before our vacation given alternate plans that had fallen through. She is super friendly and accommodating, thorough and responsive. Took great care of my babies as if they were her own and they had a great time on their stay, given the many couch lounging photos sent daily. Thank you and will be our preferred booking moving forward.”

“Great experience with Nathalie! We got lots of pictures and updates the entire time we were away. Nathalie was super communicative and our dog was very happy when we picked him up!”
“Desi and Marilyn were great with my goldendoodle and my sister’s cockapoo. The dogs spent a week while we were on vacation. Desi sent daily updates and they were really good in introducing our dogs to their dogs gradually. Our dogs are only one year old and this was their first time away from us. A positive experience!”
“First Impressions Boarding my dog, Lilly, with someone outside the family for the first time made me a little nervous. My granddaughter, who had used Rover before, helped me submit the application and choose a sitter. Even on the way to drop Lilly off, I still felt apprehensive, but that quickly changed when Teresa gave us such a warm welcome and Lilly and I were greeted by Teresa’s three friendly dogs. Although Lilly seemed a bit overwhelmed at first, she soon relaxed after playing in Teresa’s large backyard, and I felt comfortable leaving her there. Updates During Her Stay Teresa reassured me that Lilly would be well cared for and promised to keep me updated. She followed through by sending photos and notes about how Lilly was sleeping, eating, and taking her medicine, which I really appreciated. Pickup and Overall Experience When I picked Lilly up, Teresa told me what a joy she had been to care for. She said Lilly was very sweet, that her daughter had fallen in love with her, and even one of her dogs had taken a liking to her. Teresa also said Lilly would be welcome back anytime. I left feeling grateful for the care Lilly received and would happily trust Teresa with her again.”
“Maisha is the best dog sitter ever! She sends updates/pictures often, and ensured that my fur baby was having the best time. He enjoyed his stay!”
“Carolina was absolutely wonderful with Brady! She is so caring and attentive, and it really shows how much she loves what she does. She was responsive from the very beginning, keeping me updated. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was with someone so reliable and thoughtful. I could tell Brady was happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Carolina to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and truly caring sitter!”
“Marcy was excellent! She accommodated my dogs with an extra day! Very attentive and always updated me! Her service was great! My pups had a great time, and I am sure they will miss her and the family. For future boarding, I will book her!”
“We will be using Digdem every single time, i totally recommend her. she made us feel completely comfortable and she eased a hard situation with constant communications and pictures. and she is teddy's favorite person now.”
“Jenelee was so wonderful and we can’t wait to use her again. From the moment Jenelee met my dog, I knew that it was a great fit. The second time she met my dog, my dog rolled on her back and got some big belly rubs from Jenelee which already showed her comfort level with her. Jenelee was very responsive, answered all my questions and sent plenty of updates and photos. She was also accommodating and allowed me to extend my dog’s stay with her when we hit a travel issue and had our flight cancelled. I know my dog can’t wait for her next vacation at Jenelee’s home with her family! I truly recommend Jenelee to everyone!”
“Bobbi was absolutely amazing! Our dog has never stayed with a stranger before, so I was very apprehensive going into this. We have a German shepherd/lab mix so a bigger dog to handle. To my surprise we had the best experience right from the beginning. As Bobbi opened the door to greet us, and just hearing her voice Bodhi (our dog) ran right up to her and starting licking her hand and went right inside her home. He could tell right away that her energy was so kind and pure. From that moment on my mind was at peace. Bobbi sent cute pictures of Bodhi throughout his stay and he always looked so happy with a big smile. I’m truly greatly for people like Bobbi who genuinely love dogs and want to give them a great experience. My husband and I have found our dog sitter 🙌🏻 Thank you so much for the peace of mind Bobbi. We truly appreciate you!”

Amanda was such a great sitter and I cannot recommend her enough. Her communications, flexibility and care she had for our dogs put as at ease while we were away. She took the time to really understand our dogs and their different personalities. The photos of the dogs showed how much fun they were having. Thank you so much Amanda!!
Jason and Ashley are the perfect duo. From the beginning they were very helpful in giving me all the information I needed to prepare Morty for his week long visit. We were invited to come and visit their house and see the huge!!! Fenced in yard. Jay and Ash are both the nicest people If you’re thinking about boarding dont look any further you and your dog will be very satisfied
Thank you so much to Elizabeth for taking wonderful care of Coco. We loved getting daily updates with pictures and videos. It gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation. Elizabeth went above and beyond by giving Coco a bath and washing his blanket and toys before pickup. Coco came home happy and clean. Thank you again for the excellent care!
Geetesh went above and beyond caring for our senior pup while we were away on vacation. He was incredibly patient and attentive, making sure Keyser felt completely comfortable in his new surroundings. We loved receiving frequent updates and photos, which gave us such peace of mind. Geetesh’s kindness and genuine care shone through every step of the way—I honestly worried Keyser might not want to come home when we picked him up! We couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Fairfield on Rover is $83.25 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 13,681 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fairfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Fairfield sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Fairfield landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fairfield home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Fairfield.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Fairfield sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
