“John was very tentative to our dog . We loved his positive energy . We can tell he's a true animal lover . He was so easy going and flexible when we had to change our drop off off time last minute . Love how him and his son made our dog feel loved :) Photos were adorable of her he sent ! Thanks so much :)”
“Amanda and her family took excellent care of my dog, Coco, while we were gone on a cruise. She did her best to update us on how Coco is doing with the wifi connection issue on the cruise. We’re nervous about long-time boarding as Coco developed separation anxiety after the boarding experience with another sitter. Coco came back happy and not overly attached to us which tells us she had a good time while we’re gone. I appreciate Amanda and her family for the great care and I will definitely work with Amanda again.”
“Teresa was absolutely wonderful with Max. She kept us updated regularly and sent plenty of sweet photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. This was our first time ever leaving Max with a sitter, and it wasn’t easy—he’s our sweet 17.5-year-old boy and can’t travel with us anymore. I missed him dearly, but knowing he was in such loving and capable hands made all the difference. We’re so grateful to have found Teresa!”
“Maggie enjoyed her stay with Carolina! I felt very comfortable leaving Maggie there. I received updates and pictures during her stay. She also enjoyed playing with her dog Daisy! I will definitely be using Carolina again! Thank you so much Carolina for taking such good care of Maggie during her stay!”
“My Sweet girl had a wonderful stay. I highly recommend Maisha, she’s best in class. Extremely responsive and stay in touch with you every step of the way. This was my second booking we have a lifetime to go. Thank you for your wonderful service!”
“Siram and Rekha are a blessings to my family. Caliber my Golden Doddle is my whole world and the minute I met Siram and Rekha we bonded and I feel comfortable I was leaving Caliber in the best care and his 2nd home. Caliber gets along well with Milo. As long as they would have Caliber when I need a second home Siram and Rekha is my only option. Thank you both.”
“Shaun and his family were an amazing host! He took very good care of our dog, taking her on daily walks, playing with her and sending frequent updates and pictures. We highly recommend Shaun and will look for him in the future.”
“Accommodated with short notice. Encouraged a meet and greet, even came to us due to our schedule. Immediately felt at ease leaving Fletcher for the day. He looked happy in the photos sent.”
“Sujanna is an amazing person clearly cut out for the job that she does. She took amazing care of Rebel and was very communicative with Rebel’s daily activities. She sent pictures and videos detailing day’s events and best of all, Rebel was clearly so happy with her. I will not look elsewhere if I need a sitter again. Thank you so much Sujanna.”
“I was so relieved that Beanie was in such good hands with Suely while we were away on a family trip for 10 days. I got pictures and an update every day, seeing Beanie play with other dogs, go for walks, and snuggle with Suely's family. Every day my whole family would stop to look at the pictures, delighting in the knowledge that Suely was taking such good care of our little Beanie. We'll definitely be back!”
About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“Tricia was absolutely wonderful with our pup, Lani! This was our first time booking with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She clearly has excellent knowledge when it comes to dog introductions and made sure Lani felt comfortable from the start. Her yard is fantastic, spacious, super clean, and thoughtfully designed with a shaded sand pit and a dig zone that Lani loved exploring. We also really appreciated the photo updates throughout the stay! When our flight was unexpectedly canceled, Tricia was incredibly accommodating, even on such short notice. That flexibility meant so much to us. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely book with her again!”
“I can’t thank Carol enough for taking such great care of my fur baby while I was away!! He was very comfortable staying with her and was definitely pampered. I only hope she’s available to watch him any time I need to leave town.”
“Yuberkis is a very good human being that loved my dog like her own. My dog was very happy with her. She is very caring and great with my dog. She shared pictures and videos every day without failing. I’d recommend her to my friends and family who owns dog. Thank you ❤️💕”
“Jonathan provided great service. My German Shepard stayed with Jonathan for 6 nights. I also received updates about my dog during those 6 days. Thank you Jonathan!”
“We are so incredibly happy with our dog’s experience with Rhea and Michael. They were highly responsive the entire time from the initial booking request to even after picking up our baby from them. It is so clear how much Rhea and Michael love dogs and they showed such great care of my Max from the second they met. They gave us such a peace of mind while we were away for a few days; we didn’t have to worry once if everything was okay. They sent frequent updates and photos which really put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip. Rhea and Michael will be our first call next time we need someone to watch Max!”
“Christina and Nick are awesome sitters! Our dog stayed with them for several days and we can tell he was extremely well cared for. Christina sends lots of updates and photos, which made me feel so much more comfortable being away from my pup. She’s super responsive, understanding, and caring. Couldn’t recommend enough and will definitely use her for dog sitting again in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fairfield
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!
Amanda and her family were fantastic with my dog, Molly! Molly was so comfortable and happy during her stay, and I really appreciated the daily updates and adorable pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such great hands. Molly can’t wait to visit again. Highly recommend!
Jillian has been absolutely amazing. She has taken care of our Marley several times now, and each experience has been wonderful. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our fur baby is safe, happy, and so well cared for while we’re away. We couldn’t be more pleased and highly recommend her.
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 July 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 July 2026, there are 13,637 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.
