“Nicole was an amazing pet sitter and extremely reliable throughout the three days she cared for my cats. She always arrived at the agreed time, stayed for the full 30-minute visit, and was very attentive to every detail. She carefully fed them and made sure their automatic litter box, water fountain, and feeder were all working properly. She also sent me plenty of pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy my trip knowing my cats were safe and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Nicole and would be very happy to book with her again!”

“Kristina was great with my energetic pup Millie! Was able to schedule a drop in visit quickly and was super responsive. Millie loved Kristina and she made sure to update with photos and a full report! Thank you Kristina!”

“Mark checked in on our 16yo cat while we were away for a week and did a great job! She's on medication now, and he handled it without any issues. He was flexible with timing, easy to communicate with, and sent lots of adorable photos that made being away much less stressful. We'll definitely book him again!”

“Emily was amazing. She looked after my dog Godfrey so well. She was very communicative, gave Godfrey so much care & attention and did everything I asked. I would 100% recommended & will definitely be using her again”

“Alison was wonderful in her care for our kitties. We had 3 inside and 1 outside. She was timely with her visits and sent photos and updates very regularly. There was a thunderstorm during one of the visits and she could not find one of the cats. She wrote to us that she did not want to go upstairs to the bedrooms because we did not give her access. I really respected her professionalism with that. She is honest and trustworthy. We would highly recommend Alison!”


About: I have been a dog walker and pet sitter for a year so far! I've also had dogs ever since I was a kid and have had cats the last few years. People have entrusted me to stay in their homes to take care of their pets and also do daily visits and walks! Currently for me I have been working with animals as my main job while I have the time to do it and figure out more permanent work plans. I will do daily visits at my clients homes and can spend time playing or taking them on walks. I can also do overnights so they won't be alone! Since I have pets of my own at home I won't be able to care for them there.
About: I have had dogs my entire life and Ive had cats since around the age of 8. Ive been taking care of my now senior cat since she was a kitten and she’s still happy, healthy, and my best friend. Ive also done some pet sitting for my college roommate with her puppy and was able to get him started with sit/stay commands. Im very accustomed to being around animals and the unique personalities and care each one requires. I hope I can successfully provide that care for you and your furry family members. I am currently working freelance as an artist. Im very flexible and im willing to go with the flow. Overall im able to build my schedule to fit around whatever is required of me. Right now im just doing stop in visits and dog walking but the care depends on the unique needs of the animal. I understand animals have their own preferences and boundaries that I am happy to provide for in addition to the standard feeding and care needs. I am someone who likes to have and follow instructions and safety precautions and I wont hesitate to reach out if I have questions or concerns.
“Maxibel did an amazing job taking care of my two pups! From the start, communication was clear and consistent, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious how much she genuinely cares about animals my dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. I came home to two relaxed and content pups, which says everything. I would absolutely trust Maxibel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“First time I have used a pet sitter for my 2 pups, I had Lidia come over for 2 drop in visits while I was away for Thanksgiving day. She followed the instructions I left to the tee and kept me updated on how Dante and Preston were doing. I could not be happier with the job she did and will book her again when needed.”


About: Hi, on an average day your dog would spend it playing, walking,playing, sleeping,playing, eating, and playing some more! I am comfortable giving medications to your dog as I have had two dogs myself for 14 years who needed medication daily. I am also comfortable with most dog breeds/sizes. My home is in a very quiet suburban street with a large completely fenced in yard. I am also minutes (walk/drive) from three beautiful parks. I truly believe that every dog deserves a fun and loving home and I am more than glad to provide my home and time to assure that your dog gets the love and care that he/she deserves!

“We had our first booking with Jonathan today. He was very responsive and arrived right on time. He remained calm around all three of our dogs. Will book Jonathan again.”


About: I am absolutely a great pet caregiver and love to make visiting pets feel at home right away! I play with them, enjoy taking them for walks at a park, weather permitting, and will make them feel loved and happy. I have had cats, dogs and horses as my own pets throughout my life and I am an active animal advocate. I usually sit for 1 or 2 dogs at a time so they will get the very best attention. I will take your dog for several walks each day. Your dog will have a great time with me and be well taken care of. I work from home, part time, so they are rarely left without a human around. Photos/videos will be texted or emailed to you daily. Please no dogs over 20 lbs. I currently work from home, part time, so I can easily keep your pup happy and cared for. We will go for several walks throughout the day. I enjoy entertaining your pup with play time so they enjoy their time here. Also I have a large and interesting fenced yard for outdoor play.
About: What sets me apart is my patience, compassion, and ability to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from tiny puppies to large breeds and senior dogs. I’m comfortable administering medication, following specific care routines, and helping puppies learn basic skills through simple training and positive reinforcement. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and different needs, so I take the time to get to know each pet and make sure they receive personalized care and attention. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I want every pet parent to feel confident knowing their furry family member is in caring, responsible, and loving hands! ❤️🐶 As a college student with a genuine love for animals, I’m working toward making pet care my full-time career. I have a flexible schedule and am currently available on Mondays from 8:00 AM–12:00 PM and 2:00–5:00 PM, Wednesdays 11:00AM-12:00PM and 2:00PM-5:00PM, and Fridays until 5:00PM. I’m also available on Saturdays and Sundays, with Tuesdays and Thursdays opening up for services soon! 🐾 I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on the day. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive, and loving care while making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable. I look forward to building lasting relationships with pets and their families and giving every furry friend the care and attention they deserve! ❤️🐶🐱 Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! 🐾❤️ For my 20-, 30-, and 40-minute dog walks, I make sure pets are securely leashed, closely supervised, and walked at a pace that suits their age, size, and energy level. I pay attention to their surroundings and always prioritize their safety while giving them time to exercise, explore, and enjoy themselves. For my 30-minute drop-in visits, I provide attentive, loving care based on your pet’s individual needs. This can include feeding, refreshing their water, bathroom breaks, playtime, companionship, and following any special instructions you provide. I’m also comfortable administering medication when needed. I respect your home, follow your instructions carefully, and understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I’m happy to provide updates and photos during visits so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make every visit a positive experience and treat your pet with the same love, patience, and care I would give my own! 🐶🐱💕
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes for about 10 years and owned at least 1 since i was born! I just recently lost my mini schnauzer to brain cancer and would really love to help out where I can and hang out with some dogs (and cats) in the meantime! I have experience bathing, walking, and caring for senior dogs and puppies alike. I’m currently working from home and have a good amount of free time during the day to look after and care for your pup or cat! I live in a 3 story apartment and have no problem carrying a small dog upstairs if needed. I have room for a crate and surprisingly lots of room for your pet to roam around!
About: I'm a super animal lover and excited to provide your furry loved ones with a fun, safe, attentive home away from home! Whether you’re looking for home visits, boarding, drop-ins, or daily walks, I'm here for your pets' needs. My experience includes caring for dogs, cats, and exotics such as rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and reptiles. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routine, and personality. There's nothing I love more than hanging out with animals, so I'll be sure to spend plenty of quality time with your pets, whether that means going for a long walk, playing, giving belly rubs, or simply keeping them company. I want you to feel totally comfortable knowing your furry best friends are in loving, reliable hands while you’re away. I currently work a hybrid 8-4:30 schedule, where I am in the office 2 days a week. My partner and I are available throughout the week and fully open on weekends for walking, boarding, and drop-ins. I live in a condo community that is amazing for walking and also has a communal back yard space. I have one friendly, goofy 4-year-old dog named Pepper, and he loves other animals.

“Erin had great communication throughout the whole process. Our meet & greet was seamless and the whole visit went great with our dog! Highly recommend. We will be booking Erin for future needs!”

About: I started out helping friends and colleagues with their pets, and it quickly grew into caring for high-profile families/individuals who need someone they can trust. I know your time is valuable and your privacy maybe is non-negotiable. I am here to provide a seamless, stress-free experience for your dog, ensuring they get the exercise and care they need while you’re busy with your day. Why clients choose me: • Total Discretion: I have years of experience working with high-profile households. I value your privacy and maintain a low-profile, professional presence at all times if needed. • Reliable & Hands-On: You are getting one-on-one attention from someone who understands the demands of a busy lifestyle. Whether you are just running errands for the day, need some “you time”, family event or stuck at the office late - I am available to bring peace of mind so you know your dog(s) is taken care of. Your dog(s) will never be around any other dogs as your time is solely YOUR time. • Experience: I have worked with puppies, senior dogs, dogs with special diets, dogs needing medication & even dogs that tend to be dog-aggressive. I am focused on providing the best possible care for your dog. I’m happy to chat about how I can make your daily routine easier and ensure your pet is always in great hands. Because I work fully remotely, I have the kind of flexibility that most pet care providers don’t. While others are juggling multiple clients and strict appointment windows, I am able to provide a much more consistent, reliable presence for your pet with the proper communication. Since I am not tied to a traditional office or a rigid 9-to-5, I am able to: • Provide True Flexibility: I don’t have to rush through visits. If your dog needs extra time to warm up, a longer walk, or a mid-day play session, I have the time to make that happen. • Offer Peace of Mind: Being remote means I am always nearby. Last minute client at work? Deciding to go-to happy hour with some friends? I am just a text message away. *I do have 2 days a week where I have work meetings I need to attend so scheduling may need to work around that if services are needed during those times.” Since I believe dogs thrive in their own environment, I do not bring any dogs to my place of residence, If I am at a clients home, I set-up complimentary meet & greets prior to any service being provided so we can all get to know eachother & you are comfortable with me being in your home & around your pups
“Jordyn is great with our cat and dog! Jordyn has been helping out with our dog for the past couple of months and was eager to help with our cat while we were traveling as well. She is always communicative and kind!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fairfield is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $20 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 26,833 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fairfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 with handling special pet needs in Fairfield. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
