About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, bearded dragons, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, etc. I look forward to caring for your pet and treating them like my own! I’m working part time at the moment and have flexible hours, so I have plenty of time to care for your pet on a schedule that works for you! I make sure to keep the dog’s schedule as typical as possible and I listen to any instructions that the owner may have for me.
“Emma did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Hazel while I was out of town. Hazel has several specific needs, like medicine, special feeding instructions, and grooming needs, and Emma handled her complexity with care. She sent daily updates while I was away, which gave me peace of mind to know Hazel was being looked after during a stressful time. Emma absolutely came through for us and I’d recommend her to anyone!”

“Elizabeth checked in on our kitty while I was out of the country for a week. I would absolutely book her again! She was always on time, super friendly and our shy cat loved hanging out with her. It was such good peace of mind having someone so reliable and friendly checking in on the cat, and I can't say enough nice things about her!”

About: I’ve been around and loving animals my whole life. I have had my dog Copper since I was a puppy and as he has gotten older I have learned how to care for older senior dogs and the responsibility that comes with that. My more recent pup, Buckley, I got a couple years ago. I trained and raised her myself so I also have experience with puppy care as well. While pursuing my undergraduate degree I volunteered at an Animal Shelter as a pet adoption counselor and dog walker, so I have lots of experience with a wide variety of breeds and pet safety. I currently have a 2 year old cat named Cleo that I am the sole caretaker for, and have a lot of experience cat sitting as well. As a first-year Doctor of Physical Therapy student at UC, I spend a lot of time at my desk studying and would love a furry study buddy! My class schedule fluctuates week-to-week between 9 AM and 4 PM, so I am generally unavailable for midday check-ins during the week (unless you live right next to campus). However, my evenings and weekends are completely wide open and dedicated to pet care. I love going for long walks to clear my head after class and am more than willing to house-sit and spend the night. Your pet will get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship when I am off campus! With my background as a dog walker and shelter adoption counselor, I am fully trained in pet safety, reading animal body language, handling worst-case scenarios, and administering medications. Because I have experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs, I easily adapt to whatever level of care and attention your pet requires, making sure they get at least one good walk a day or a fun weekend trip to a local park or hike. I am also passionate about feline enrichment and love setting up daily toy rotations or interactive puzzles to keep cats mentally stimulated and happy. To ensure your pet stays completely comfortable in their own routine and to keep my own cat happy at home, I exclusively provide care in your home and am more than happy to house-sit and spend the night so your furry family member gets plenty of evening cuddles, consistent companionship, and the best care possible!
“Colleen was punctual, courteous, and took care of my girls with no issues! She was able to accommodate a sudden change in plans with ease and I genuinely appreciated it! 💗”

About: We both grew up with dogs and have always loved them. We are proud owners of 2 rescue dogs and love socializing our pups with new dogs and new experiences. Rachel previously volunteer trained service dogs for 4 Paws for Ability. When your pup stays with us, we will spend time playing, walking, running, visiting a local dog park, or cuddling on the couch. We use positive reinforcement to train dogs and correct behavioral issues. We are happy to provide baths if the dog gets dirty with us. Dogs must be up to date on shots. We are mostly available on weekends, since Rachel works as a school counselor during the week and Nick works in finance. We hope you choose us to watch over your precious pups!
“I just met Scott for the first time today. There was a possibility I would have to go out of town to the hospital in the next day or two. I have one cat sitter but I need additional one. I immediately felt at ease with him. He carried some heavy cat litter down my steps into my basement and did the litter boxes. He's very kind and although my cats really didn't meet him today I feel very comfortable in leaving him his care.”

“Callie was great with communication and solved a problem with a food mixup to make sure our dogs were taken care of. She is definitely someone I recommend for drop in support. Thanks Callie!”

About: Hi, my name is Kylie! I’m a patient, kind, and attentive dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes. I treat every dog like family, ensuring safety, fun, and love every day. I’m reliable, responsible, and ready to make your pup happy and comfortable while you’re away. I’m available weekdays (Monday–Thursday) for dog sitting, walks, and playtime. My schedule on weekends varies because I work at different stores, but I’m happy to accommodate special requests or fill-ins whenever possible. I love caring for dogs and enjoy making them feel safe, happy, and loved while fitting pet care seamlessly into my week. Although I don’t have pets of my own, I love caring for dogs like they’re part of my family. I supervise them at all times, follow their routines, and create a safe, clean, and loving environment so they feel happy and secure while you’re away.
About: I absolutely adore animals and have never lived a life without them. I adopted my very own sweet dog Sage at 18 (as soon as I was old enough) and she has been the light of my life. She has taught me a lot of patience and responsibility at a young age. She is definitely a wild girl but I wouldn’t trade her for the world! Since I have a dog I am pretty used to all of the craziness that comes with them like leash pulling, weird eating habits, mess, and of course slobber! I currently nanny from 9:00-5:00 Tuesday through Thursday so I am try to find something to fill that Friday-Monday gap! As I spend those days walking and caring for my own pup I figured I might as well look to see if I can help others! I am a very alert person when it comes to my dog as she is very shy and scared around certain things so I would have course be the same with anyone else’s dog! I would never want to put someone else’s baby in harms way so I am very cautious.
About: I have had many different kinds of dogs since I was a child and have grown to love them ! I have been working at a dog daycare part time since January and have learned a lot about managing and caring for dogs. I work part time and am in college right now but am available the weekdays after 3 and anytime on Friday. Saturdays and Sundays I have work but can still squeeze in time. I care for dogs in others home the same I do in mine.. with love and compassion. I feed, take them out, and give them plenty of attention !

About: My family has had dogs since before I was born! I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and know how to take care of fur babies of all ages :) Almost four years ago I adopted my first cat. Fast forward to today, I am now a mother of two orange special needs kitties. They are my world 🌎 ❤️🐾 I currently work part time and go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On school days, class starts at 9 and I will have an hour and a half between classes to let a pet out to go to the bathroom, feed them, or give them medication. Then I have another class from 1-3. After that, I will be totally free to assist any pets. I also work part time 3-4 days when I do not have school. These are usually 6-8 hour shifts, but I can adjust feedings/walking/medication administration around these times. And when in doubt, I have several well regarded Rover friends that are willing to help out on my longer shifts, with client approval. :-) I have space to keep a crate for overnight visits and live in an apartment complex with some green space to walk and explore. I am also only a few minutes away from five different parks, so lots of options to check out. I have two cats that are dog friendly, but can be separated if the dog is not cat friendly !

About: I have been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs, and many of my family members have dogs that I regularly help care for. I am comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, giving attention, and keeping pets on their normal routines! I have always had a natural connection with animals, and dogs especially tend to warm up to me very quickly! I am patient, attentive, and love getting to know each pets unique personality! My schedule is very flexible since I currently work banquet events on as as-needed basis. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care and work around your pets routine. I'm able to plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and drop in visits! I'll also have my schedule over a week in advance and I will be sure to communicate with you ahead of time to make sure I can provide the care your pet needs! I provide pet care in my clients' homes where pets can stay in their own familiar environment. I will follow your instructions and your pets normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications ( if needed ), and any other specific care they require. I'm respectful of your home and will make sure doors, gates, and other safety measures are secure. Your pet's safety and well being are my top priorities, and I will keep you updated with photos and messages while you're away!
About: Hi! I’m an experienced, compassionate pet sitter who truly believes every animal deserves to be treated like family. 🐾 I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and have spent the past 3 years working professionally as a pet sitter through an established pet-care company. I’ve cared for all kinds of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, ferrets, hamsters, snakes, skunks, and more. I absolutely love animals of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities—including exotic pets and farm animals! 🏡 Dog Boarding in My Home I offer boarding in my home for dogs under 40 pounds. Your dog will be welcomed into a loving, pet-friendly home where they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and cuddles. I have two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and six cats, so my home is truly an animal-loving environment. Because of my resident pets, I want to make sure every boarding guest is comfortable around other animals and is a good fit for our household. I’m happy to discuss your dog’s personality, routines, and needs ahead of time to make sure everyone has a safe and enjoyable stay. I do not crate pets unless that is your preference or part of their normal routine. 🐾 Care in Your Home — Dogs of Any Size & All Animals For dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting in your home, I’m happy to care for dogs of any size, as well as cats and other animals. Whether you have a tiny puppy, a large dog, multiple pets, or a variety of animals, I can provide loving, dependable care tailored to their individual needs and routines. As someone who has used professional pet-sitting services myself, I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving plenty of love while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pets feel happy and cared for—whether they’re staying in their own home and routine or enjoying a vacation at my home. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets with special needs. I’m also experienced with administering both oral medications and injections. You’ll receive daily updates (or more frequently if you prefer), including photos, so you never have to wonder how your babies are doing. For your added peace of mind, I carry my own pet-sitting insurance. I’m also a non-smoker and non-drinker. Whether you have one dog, a house full of cats, an exotic pet, or a whole farm of animals, I’d love the opportunity to care for them! ❤️ Please feel free to reach out with any questions about me, my services, or my rates. I’d love to meet you and your pets! 🐾 Flexible, At-Home Pet Care Because I work remotely, I have the flexibility to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and companionship throughout the day. My flexible work schedule allows me to adjust my hours around your pets’ needs, whether they’re staying in their own home or boarding with me in my home. When your dog stays with me, they won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to provide plenty of companionship, potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles, and attention throughout the day, while still allowing them to relax and feel comfortable in a home environment. For pets I care for in your home, I can work around their normal routine and provide the individualized care they’re accustomed to. Whether your pet needs regular walks, medication, playtime, extra potty breaks, or simply someone nearby for companionship, my flexible schedule allows me to be there for them. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for—whether they’re staying in their own home or enjoying a stay at mine.❤️ 🐾 Caring for Your Pets in My Home or Yours Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, my priority is always their safety, comfort, and happiness. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so they receive personalized care and plenty of love and attention. I’m experienced with administering both oral medications and injections, and I’m comfortable following specific instructions to help keep your pet’s routine consistent while you’re away. When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I’m also happy to help with the little things that give you extra peace of mind, including bringing in your mail, watering plants, taking out the garbage, and keeping your home looking lived-in. Most importantly, your pets will receive plenty of companionship, affection, playtime, and attention. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pets are being cared for with the same love and attention I would want for my own. ❤️
About: I am a responsible mom of kids and animals. I currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats. From a young age, I have had many pets, worked in a vet office and volunteered at an animal shelter. We have fostered many dogs and cats. I love animals, and I will love your animals as if they were my own. I can give medication, walk them or even take them to dog parks. We take our dogs camping, hiking, and kayaking and they love it. I am a homeschool mom of teenagers. This means I am flexible on my time and availability. We are home a lot, so your pets are not left alone long. I have a fenced-in yard, and I can attend to almost anything your pets would need or the client would like me to do to care for their pet.

About: Hello! My name is Rachel. Growing up, we always had cats and dogs in the home. I currently have a husky named Rosie and a westie named Stormy. Stormy is an older dog so I have experience caring for older animals.

I’m almost always available on evenings or weekends. I have a fenced in back yard and two other dogs who love to play! Typically, my other dogs stay in my back room at work so i would keep your animal separate or crated if you prefer.

Adrianna was absolutely amazing with my dogs! This is the first time I have left them alone so they were not the most socialized. She spent a lot of time and energy to get their trust and by the end of the five visits, they were coming to her with wagging tails. I was so anxious about leaving them, but she calmed all of my fears and I could not be any happier without she took care of my pups! She sent me updates with pictures and let me know exactly what was going on with them and I know they weren’t easy for the first couple of visits, but she showed amazing patients and worked with them well. A huge thank you!
Susan is the best pet sitter we’ve had! Took such good care of our dog and two cats, and our dog even got his own vacation out of it as Susan took him to her house for extra care and interaction with her own dogs. Susan was also very communicative throughout. Will definitely use Susan again in the future.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fairfield choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Fairfield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
