“Lucero did a great job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. I also liked Lucero as a person - she is very nice and very reliable. Definitely will come back to her the next time I will need a sitter for my cat! Thank you so much!”
“She is literally the most caring walker. She goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care on my dog. I honestly can't thank her enough for all she's done. Simply amazing”
About: Ever since I was a child I can’t remember a time we didn’t have a pet in the home. Everything ranging from little fishes and a frog, to cats, dogs, rabbits, and even a bird for a short time. I have become very comfortable around animals and would love to bring my history of animal care to your lovely pet. I’ve taken care of dogs while they were puppy potty training all the way up until they’re old enough to need the diapers again. I’m currently between major jobs right now looking to fill my schedule on weekdays. I am available all day Monday-Friday for visits, walks, or any sort of care needed. I have a fenced yard at my current residence and two amazing dogs that live here that are very kind and social and just love to run and play in the grass. There is also a separate area downstairs where your pet could be separated from the dogs here if needed.
About: I have dogs that I share with my family and 2 cats of my own who I love and adore! I also have experience with pet sitting and dog walking with my friends and neighbors and I hope to care for yours, too! I currently work Mon-Fri from 9am-5pm and I have a half day on Fridays and am off at 12:30 on those days I’m available after work and on weekends, too! I will follow any specific instructions that are given to me to ensure your pet has the best experience! I will make sure your pets are happy, fed, safe and all the things!
“Marie has dropped in for my large breed dog, picked him up for dog park visits and watched him for me during vacation. I love that she has experience with large dogs, administering medications and is really hands on and passionate about dogs. My pup is not low maintenance in terms of needing monitoring for counter serving and getting into food, doesn’t like being left alone etc. and she handles it great. She always sends lots of photos and updates which helps make me feel at ease. Would recommend Marie for your dog care and needs 100%!”
About: We’re a dog-loving duo who bring the best of both worlds to your pup’s care! I’m an athlete who loves taking dogs along for runs and outdoor adventures, while my wife is all about laid-back snuggles and cozy companionship. Whether your dog craves long walks and high-energy play or prefers belly rubs and naps on the couch (or both!), we’ve got them covered. With us, your furry friend will get plenty of exercise, affection, and personalized care. We treat every dog like family and can’t wait to meet yours! My wife currently is not working, so she spends most of the day with dogs we take care of. She might leave for the occasional errand, for 1-2 hours. We usually try to arrange for one of us to be home with dogs we are taking care of, to limit alone time throughout their stay with us. We care for every dog like they’re our own—with love, attention, and a balance of activity and relaxation. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise with daily walks, runs, and playtime, while my wife offers a calm, cozy atmosphere full of snuggles and companionship. Although we don’t have a fenced yard, we live in a quiet townhouse community with lots of safe walking space. There are three parks within walking distance and several more just a short drive away. We also love taking dogs to the nearby Jordan River Trail for more scenic and enriching walks. Your pup will get the perfect mix of outdoor adventure and indoor comfort while staying with us.
“Viri was absolutely incredible!! She treated our dog just like her own. We booked Viri for drop in visits for a week super last minute and she helped relieve so much stress. Our dog barks when people come over and she wasn’t phased at all and was completely understanding of his adjustment period. I would rebook Viri in a heartbeat!!”
About: I've taken care of my pets for the last 7 years and have also helped family and neighbors with their pet care needs. I prefer already trained dogs. I'm currently unemployed which gives me a lot of free time to meet your pet care needs. Please let me know how I can be of service for your pets. To contact me please text. Keeping your pets safe is important to me. I will follow all instructions and be aware of your pets needs. I want to make sure everyone is happy and healthy.
“We use Mark all the time to help out when we’re out of town or have busy days at work. He treats denali so well and makes me feel so much better about having to be away from him! We’ve seen Mark working with other dogs in our neighborhood a few times and Denali always runs up to him tail wagging and howling. We could not reccomend Mark more!!”
About: 🏡 HOME FULL TIME 🏡 25 years experience taking care of kittens/cats & puppies/dogs from tiny chihuahuas all the way up to Giant Schnauzers :) Also successfully rehabilitated various wildlife including squirrels, robins and doves.

“I appreciated having someone to help me when I had to travel for work and my flight flights were delayed but she was able to help and made it easy to extend the booking. Thank you for your help!”
About: I’ve been doing pet sitting for 4 years, and I’ve always loved it. I’ve had dogs my entire life and they will always be my best friend. I’m always taking care of dogs especially I have 3 at my own home I’m always out on a walk or even just filling up their water bowl I’ll come to your house and make sure their food and water is out then take them on a 10-15 minute walk if they need any special treatment I’m always happy to oblige!
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats my whole life. My mom was a veterinary Tech so I’ve always been around animals. I currently raise four special needs cats of my own. I am a tattoo apprentice currently, and I make my own schedule, so I am more than willing to work within your needs for whatever works for both you and your furry friend! I have tons of experience with animal care and promise and very hands on experience with your loved on. they will be loved on and completely supervised. I promise to treat them as one of my own!
About: I am definitely strong enough to take care of the large babies and patient with the babies that need a little extra loving. I have always been drawn to animals and they pretty much always love me too! I am working part time and in between a career shift. I am so excited to get to be able to help take care of the fur babies!! I am not entirely sure what the question is but I will follow whatever instructions are given because obviously you will know your babies and what works best for them
About: The greater joys and attachments in life have come to me by the way of my dogs. I have always had a strong connection with my pets and have been accused on many occasions of treating my furry friends as well as, or better than humans. I'm extremely picky about the cleanliness and comfort of my house yet cannot imagine it being a home without the wonderful energy that only a pet can give it. Having taken in and assisted in the care of pets over many years, my file at a local veterinarian's office is ridiculously thick. It is that same veterinarian who shared with me that when he passes it would be his wish to come back as one of my pets. Be assured, I will love and care for your pet! My home is a warm and peaceful place- free from drama, full of good energy. I believe animals can keenly sense when they’re in a safe place from the moment they step into your space. They’re also acutely aware when it’s not. For the select pets who prefer staying in their own home while their humans are away, I enter in to your home with love, and respect of your space. I exercise discretion, as staying in your home requires a level of privacy that will be protected. I always vow to leave a property as clean and cared for as when I first entered it. Having spent a significant time in overseas travel, I found it unbearable from the moment I departed from home until I landed back home- my two dogs were always on my mind and in my heart. They were like my children. When I take care of your fur baby, they will be my one and only concern. I have a wonderful yard that is fully fenced- it’s a slice of heaven for any pup! I don’t keep them outside, especially when it’s too warm or too cold. I’ve never understood dog owners kenneling their dogs outside, having little interaction.
About: When you’re away, you should be able to take a load off—not spend your time wondering whether your pets are comfortable, lonely, or getting the attention they’re used to. The moment you leave them with me, I go into dog-mom mode on your behalf. I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own, Bruce and Fiona. They’ve taught me patience, consistency, and how important the little details are. I’m comfortable managing multiple-pet households, medication and feeding schedules, different energy levels, late-night potty breaks, and the individual routines that help each pet feel safe. Does your dog like to be tucked into bed at night? Perfect—I can do that. Do they sleep better with someone nearby? I’ll be right there. Are they shy, high-energy, particular about their routine, or happiest with plenty of affection? I’ll take the time to learn what makes them comfortable. You’ll typically receive morning and evening updates with plenty of photos and videos, so you can relax and see how your pets are doing while you’re away. I’m also happy to adjust based on how often you’d like to hear from me. To me, VIP pet care isn’t about treating every animal exactly the same. It means paying attention, following your instructions closely, keeping you updated, and caring for your pets the way I care for my own. While they’re with me, they become part of my pack—and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m currently an uber driver and I have plenty of spare time to step in and care for your pets as if they were my own. I have a husband who helps with my dogs at home while I’m away. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my priority. Before a stay, I like to learn as much as I can about their normal routine, personality, triggers, medical needs, and any little quirks I should know about. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep doors, gates, and leashes secure, and never put your dog in an unfamiliar or unnecessary situation without your permission. I’m also respectful of your home and will keep their space clean and comfortable while you’re away. If anything seems off, I’ll communicate with you right away—because I’d rather ask a question than make an assumption when it comes to your dog.
About: I grew up on a farm with several different pets, so my experience with pets is broad. I do have one small dog that absolutely loves other dogs. I am a traveling nurse, currently fulfilling a contract. I do have different days of the week/weekend available. My schedule is not set the same every week. I live right next many parks and hiking trails. I am willing to follow any feeding/walking/ medication schedule that is needed. I can be a very outdoorsy or in-home person depending on your pets needs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 2,691 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:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
