“Heather was amazing with Rip & Diesel. I couldn’t ask for a better house / dog sitter. It was a last minute booking and Heather came through for me. I will rebook for sure with Heather.”
“Kendall did a great job caring for my dogs. They loved her!! She took them on adventures and treated them to pup cups at Starbucks! Yes, my dogs are a little bougie 😊. I highly recommend Kendall to care for your pet(s).”
“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”
“Kristle was amazing!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter to watch our Coco Bella! Kristle was loving and caring! She was so good to Coco! She took her out on walks, played with her, and made sure she was well taken care of. She sent us pictures everyday and was quick to respond! I am so happy we met Kristle and we will be in contact with her for future needs! I highly recommend her services! Thank you Kristle and family! Coco loved you guys!”
“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.”
“Stephanie stayed with our dogs for 10 days and took great care of them. She was also more than willing to help with small household things. The dogs seemed super happy and comfortable with her. I have a diabetic chi. and she learned how to give him his shots as well. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Patrick is just the best. I was so nervous to leave my two cats for a trip especially as I had to find someone last minute as my prior sitter had to cancel last minute- and Patrick stepped up to the plate. I have very high expectations for their care and he met every single one and beyond- he was always responsive, sent so many adorable photos and videos, followed my three pages of instructions to the exact detail, and really took the time to bond with them. What other reviewers have said below is absolutely right- you can tell he has such a love for animals and understands them in such a great way. They both have unique personalities and he really took time to bond with them and make them feel comfortable while I was away. I had such a good trip because I didn’t need to worry about them, in his care they were pampered and loved just as if they were his own. He sent a really kind note and gift to me that was tailored to me as a person- it was such a lovely touch. My place was spotless as well upon my return. This was the best case scenario for me and I will absolutely be rebooking, and I cannot recommend Patrick enough!”
“Katie was a hit!!!! With Griffin and with us. Please come back soon!!! Thank you for being an eager player of dog games AND for leaving the house so clean. Five-plus stars for Katie.”
“Robin was very attentive to my babies and treated them as her own. She kept me updated during the stay with photos and texts. I was very relaxed knowing my girls were all happy! I would definitely use her again!”
“Sophie provided great care to our fur babies while we were out of town for the weekend! She was attentive to them, communicated well and sent lots of pictures! This was our first time using Rover and we were a little nervous. Sophie put our fears at ease and we couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter. We highly recommend booking with her!”
“Once again Ben was wonderful. He made sure our boys had enough exercise and fun while he was here. We felt at ease knowing our babies were being well taken care of. Hopefully Ben will be available for our next getaway!”
“Jordan was amazing! She took the best care of our pets that we could have asked for and went above and beyond in making them feel safe and comfortable. She was flexible when our arrival home was delayed overnight. Our pets would love to see her again.”
“As always. Zach was the best dog and house sitter! Goes above and beyond, sends lots of photos and videos, and makes sure our dog is getting lots of love and care while we’re away.”
About: I grew up taking care of several cats, and as a mom I helped my 4 daughters raise and train for obedience 3 dogs. Recently, I worked for 3 years at a (small animal & equestrian) veterinarian clinic in the front office. I take care of walking,feeding, and loving on my neighbors’ pets on a regular basis. My own Labrador, Nico, passed in December 2025. Boarding other pets give me the opportunity to still feel the joy of having a pet around. My day job is somewhat flexible on start and end times, most afternoons I work from home and I can fit in breaks when neeeded I will adapt to your pet’s personality and level of desire for interaction. When taking your pet out, I am mindful of whether or not to let them interact with other pets and people.
“Miranda took great care of our dogs and bunnies! She communicated with daily reports while we were gone. She went above and beyond to keep our house neat and tidy. As a first time Rover customer this was a great first experience. I would rebook with Miranda in the future, and recommend her to others.”
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.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fairfield Heights
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!
Josh took great care of our dog this week while we were away. We really appreciated him keeping us informed and connected while we were on a trip (via pictures, videos, and updates). We are repeat customers and will not hesitate to contact Josh whenever we need someone to care for our dog.
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.
Amy is wonderful! She truly cares about my pets. I have cats and dogs and when we are away it's nice to know that someone like Amy is there with them. She sends updates with photos everyday. My pets love her and as long as she is willing I will be using her as my pet sitter :)

FAQs for House Sitting - Fairfield Heights
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fairfield Heights on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 1,445 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fairfield Heights. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
