“Allison was great with my 2 pugs. She went above and beyond what I expected. My go loved her. She watered plants, filled Hummingbird feeders and dispensed medicine to one of the girls. She left my house clean and was a joy to work with”

“Hayli was our peace of mind with her loving care of Ellie and Annie,our two bichon frise dogs while we had a pontoon day on Lake Monroe celebrating our 45th anniversary. She arrived promptly and understood the girls routine and gave them and us a great day. Her attitude is positive and caring. She would be an ideal sitter for any pet and pet family. Highly recommend for future sitting.”

“This was a last minute booking and I truly appreciate Ben's flexibility. The dogs loved him and the knowledge that my pups were happy and being well cared for is priceless. Ben was communicative throughout and was diligent in obtaining the critical information about diet and personalities of my two dogs. Highly recommend!”
About: I don’t just love dogs because they’re cute. I love them for who they are. Their loyalty, their innocence, their unconditional love, and the way they can make you feel loved without ever saying a single word. They don’t care what you look like, how much money you have, what kind of day you’ve had, or whether you have your life together. They just want to love you, be near you, and be part of your world. 🐾 I’m currently working full time, free during the week to be around dogs, care for them & be their extra love. I love all dogs ♥️ Fenced in yard, I have 2 dogs whom I love everyday of my life. They’ll always be a part of my life, everyday! My life is just about dogs
“Sara’s first stay with Mabel was a 10 day stint. She sent daily updates and did a great job. My house was clean when I arrived back home and Mabel was happy. I will be using her again.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have taken care of all different kinds of dogs. My grandfather trained police dogs so I am used to taking care of all style of dogs. I’m currently on working on the side so I have a very free schedule to offer services at all times. I’m home most of the day and I can choose my own schedule to work around providing pet care. My wife and I live in a gated community that is very dog friendly. There is a dog park in the middle of the complex. We have a very friendly corgi for your fur babies to play with. We allow dogs on the furniture and to sleep wherever they want to.
“Allison what great with our two pups, Max and Todd. Our dogs are used to my husband working from home and Allison did a great job giving them all the attention in the world, as they tend to demand.”
“Lo took great care of our dogs and the house. I will be using her again and highly recommend. My dogs take a minute to let new people in their circle and she did great with them. They loved her!”
“Kia was fantastic! She was patient and flexible with us making changes in the time. She was very responsive and timely. Most importantly, she was very sweet with our dog Bella. We will definitely rebook with Kia when we are back in the area.”
About: I have been a lover of animals since I was a kid, I was always surrounded by dogs and cats! I have sat many people’s animals within my family and friends and I even have a dog and cat of my own! I work part time at Amazon, so I’m only gone for a few hours in the mornings. The rest of the day I usually spend with my pets, and/ or with yours! I care for pets in my home/ other people’s homes by making sure they’re fed, their water is clean and they have had plenty of play time with me or other animals, and of course, lots of cuddles!! (If they like cuddles.)
“Jocelyn was Absolutely Fantastic. She treated our fur babies like her own. And kept us updated along the way. We reached out to her because we were in a pickle for a dog sitter . And Jocelyn came and met our dogs … who absolutely loved her. We will definitely be using her again.”
“We’ve used Rover for years and never had such a positive experience as we did with Megan. She not only took diligent notes about all of my pups little quirks and preferences, but she really went the extra mile every opportunity she had. Our dogs loved her, too 😃. I will absolutely be using her in the future and recommending Megan to anyone looking for a pet/house sitter.”
“I always get nervous leaving my pets when I go out of town, but I felt so much better with Clarissa at my house! She did a great job giving me lots of updates and making sure they had lots of company while I was gone. I’d definitely book her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fairfield Heights
Coming from a very anxious dog mom with 2 reactive and anxious pups, Patrick is FANTASTIC. He took such great care of them while I was out of town ensuring they got regular walks, lots of attention, and administered their medications. Patrick provided regular pictures and updates which helped ease a lot of my own anxiety. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be using Patrick for any of my future dog sitting/walking needs!
Zach sat for our two dogs for two nights in October. One of our dogs is very fearful of everyone except my husband and I, and Zach visited three times before we actually left town to make sure the dogs knew him and were comfortable with him. He brought lots of treats to gain their trust and went walking in the neighborhood with us. Zach is great with dogs and has lots of experience working with dogs and connecting with them. On his third visit Zach did a "test run" and came in to feed the dogs dinner while we went out for a couple of hours. Zach sent us many pictures and videos while we were gone and we really appreciated that! I will not hesitate to use Zach as a dog sitter in the future! Thank you Zach!
Robin was amazing! She took such great care of our two dogs and our home while we were away. She kept us updated on everything they did and followed their schedule perfectly. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Robin and will definitely use her again!
Lori did a fantastic job with our 4 challenging furbabies! She had to deal with an arthritic & fearful dog, one with incontinence & diabetes, one with anxiety, and one high energy pup. Lori was very flexible and easy to work with. She provided multiple updates and photos daily, and didn't hesitate to ask for clarification when it was needed. She provided an excellent level of care for them, and it was very reassuring to know they were in such good hands! We won't hesitate to book her again - provided she's willing to deal with them again in the future!
Alexis went above and beyond with Alan! Even though we did a meet and greet, he decided to be a cranky senior and had a little stranger danger when she first got to our house after we left. She sent us a message right away and handled the situation like a pro! Alan settled quickly and they were best friends for the rest of the time she stayed at our house. She sent pictures the whole time and was great at communicating with us. It was great knowing he was in such caring hands.
Cass did a great job taking care of my 3 dogs and 4 cats for 3 nights/4 days in my home. I have 2 young dogs under 10 pounds, and an elderly 40 pound dog that takes meds twice daily. She gave the meds and followed all my instructions for keeping the pack happy and healthy. She sent regular updates and asked questions as they came up. When I arrived home, everything was in order and all my pets were taken care of like I had asked. I recommend Cass, and would not hesitate to use her as a sitter in the future!
Kailyn was excellent with my two dogs during a weekend overnight stay. She walked them daily and did a great job keeping them occupied, happy, and well cared for. She even went above and beyond by helping watch a third dog, our friend’s pup who was visiting from out of town for a night. We’ll definitely be using Kailyn again moving forward. Highly recommend!
Jesslyn was wonderful during her stay watching our little one. She sent pictures each day and let us know if they went on walks. We were a bit anxious as this was the first time with a new sitter. Everything went great. No issues. We would definitely recommend her to anyone needing outstanding care. She is super nice and totally loves animals. Thank you Jess for the amazing care.

The average cost of House Sitting in Fairfield Heights is $61 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $102 per night.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fairfield Heights walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fairfield Heights maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Heights 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!
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 , 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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
