“Kristen and Kenneth were great. Our cats were shy and didn’t come out much but were still well cared for and they appreciated the clean water, litter, and full bowls each day.”
“Gwen is an excellent sitter. She stays in touch and is patient with new pet friends. She was a last minute request and I was so happy to get an experienced person. I would definitely request her again.”
“Beth has helped us out twice with our cats and dog. She is very professional, always keeps us updated, and send us lots of pictures. We appreciate her and have felt at ease while we are away.”
“Noah has again done a fantastic job for us. He's on time and even when a work issue came up for him, he made an extra trip later to make sure our dog was ok for the night! Really appreciate him and his care of our animals!”
“Mercedes did an excellent job taking care of our two dogs. She was able to accommodate the times we needed her to come to the house, which was so helpful. I would book with Mercedes again!”
About: I have loved, raised, and responsibly cared for dogs for over 30 years. I also served as a dog trainer and K-9 officer in the United States Marine Corps. I work from home, being attentive, providing loving care is very important to me. With someone always present, I am able to provide companionship, supervision, and a calm, comfortable environment where pets feel safe and cared for. Our home features a secure fenced yard with ample room for exercise, a well-socialized dog and cat, and crate accommodations for overnight stays. Dogs that enjoy water can also benefit from supervised pool time for low-impact exercise and enrichment.
About: I’ve grown up with multiple dogs in my house. I currently have a mini dachshund that I talk on walks everyday. I spend a lot of time with my current dog training, walking, and playing with her. I am a 2027 Bride looking to walk dogs to help save for my wedding! I’m available weekday evenings and anytime on the weekends. I have walked/ taken care of multiple dog breeds including: Australian Shepherd, Chihuahua rat terrier mix, Pomeranian, Dachshund, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Great Dane, and more
About: - 4 years experience of having cats and taking care of a blind cat. Experience with administering oral medication to cats. - Used to working in an animal shelter, dealt with nervous dogs with patience and love. Currently working in a dog daycare as a dog trainer trainee. - Familiar with leash walking (including double leash, slip/P leash, gentle elader), basic obedience, and safe dog socialization. - Detail-oriented, follow care indtruction, strong communication with pet owners (if needed). Monday - Friday availability: Before 9am and after 6pm Weekend: Available all day. Availability may occasionally vary due to personal plans. Please message me to confirm specific dates and times. I prioritize pets' safety at all times. When walking dogs, I always secure leashes/harnesses and keep them away from potential hazards such as traffic, other animals, or other (potential) harmful objects. For cats, I'll make sure they are in a safe, enclosed space during visit, and I handle them gently to reduce stress. I observe all pets' behavior and status closely to ensure they are comfortable and unstressed. I'll follow care instructions for feeding, playing, and daily routines. I keep owners updated with pictures and messages, so they know how their pets are doing.
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was old enough to stay home alone as a young teen! Growing up, we always had two or three dogs in the house, along with the occasional indoor and outdoor cat. I also grew up around horses and have experience caring for a variety of animals, including some other farm animals. Honestly, chickens scare me the most, but I am up for the challenge! If you’re looking for care beyond dogs and cats, feel free to reach out, and we can discuss your needs! I also work from home a few days each week, which allows me to give pets extra attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I currently work full time, but I work from home on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, which allows me to spend extra time with your pet throughout the day. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays, I’m available before and after work, meaning your pet would typically only be alone for about eight hours during the workday. I’m also available most weekends and can provide frequent potty breaks and check-ins throughout the day. At this time, I’m only offering care in clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I do my best to make pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away by sticking closely to their normal schedule for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I understand every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I adjust my care based on their needs and energy level. I also make sure owners stay updated with regular photos and messages for peace of mind while they’re away.
“Norris communicated well, took care of my animals. Played with them, and showed attention. Made sure all of their needs were taken care of. Norris came two times a day, close to the time I scheduled.”
“Crystal was amazing!!! My German Shepherds both LOVED her! She gave regular updates and sent pictures of them while we were away missing them. We will definitely reuse her and highly recommend her!”
“Ben was awesome, very nice, caring and knowledgeable. We felt comfortable letting Ben into our home to care for our animals while we were away. We will forsure be using him again in the future.”
About: I’m the go to dog sitter in my social circle! As a designated dog-mom, I’m always trying to give each dog the best care I can from different enrichment activities like lick mats or puzzle toys to long 3-5 mile walks through the neighborhood or through a park. I do have my own dog, who loves to play but will also enjoy quiet naps with any visiting dogs. I am lucky enough to work from home so pets are not left alone for the work day. They would have access to a fully fenced yard for outside time several times a day. When a pet is in my care, I do my best to keep to their routine while keeping mine and my own dog’s routine. While with me, they’d have opportunities to not only play with my dog, but to run outside in a fully 6’ fenced in yard, different enrichment activities and to work on any training their pet parents would like us to work on.
About: My 17 year old brownie passed in May 2026, and I had spent the last 15 years loving her, but her final 3 years caring for her in her old age. From cleaning the messes from an old bladder to hand-cooking her food for her allergies, I have learned the amount of care is different for each animal, and I am flexible with what is necessary to keep them happy. I am currently living a happy, unemployed life and excited to give your pet all the attention and time they need! Flexible on the weekends and weekdays. Your home is you and your pets’ safe space, and I respect every aspect of it and will keep it the way you left it. Clean, organized, and comfortable.
“Brelynn is amazing! She was so kind and gentle with my senior dog, who needs medicine hidden in wet food and also needs assistance getting up and down the stairs to my deck. Even in frigid January temperatures, Brelynn gave my dog the outdoor time she needed and then cuddled with her indoors for the rest of the visit. She gave my dog more time and attention than I can provide over a rushed lunch hour, and I’m so grateful for the loving care she gave my doggy!”
“I contacted Alyssa last minute for a drop in visit and not only was she able to accommodate but she worked with me to schedule a meet and greet with the cats ahead of my trip, maintained excellent communication, and provided updates over several days. If you are looking for an ambitious and kind individual to watch over your fur babies, I highly recommend Alyssa!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fairfield Heights
We had such a wonderful experience with our pet sitter! She was absolutely amazing with our elderly cat and took such thoughtful, loving care of her while we were away. She was incredibly kind, caring, and patient, and it was obvious that she genuinely cared about our cat and wanted her to feel comfortable and loved. Knowing our cat was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond to make sure she was well cared for, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. We are so grateful and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and wonderful with pets!
Dakota was amazing! She stepped in at the last minute after my original cat sitter canceled and was even able to add an extra day when I asked her last minute. She was always on time, reliable, and easy to communicate with. She took great care of my cats, and they clearly loved her. Even my shy cat warmed up to her, and my grumpy boy seemed really comfortable too. I’d definitely book her again!
Lori did a wonderful job with Cocoa! Cocoa is usually quite reserved, but I could tell from the daily photos that she warmed up to Lori quickly and loved their playtime together. It put me at such ease knowing she was in great hands every day. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fairfield Heights is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $43 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 2,553 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fairfield Heights. 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 Heights. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
