Katie is so good to our River! She goes above and beyond during her visits. I feel so much better about leaving River while we're at work since their visits together started. Highly recommend Katie!

This was my first time using the Rover service, snd I could not be happier! Annie too excellent care of my two cats and everything was in order when I returned home. My female is shy, but came out to greet Annie. I would highly recommend Rover and Annie if you are looking for a reliable person to provide TLC to your fur baby/babies!

During the meet and greet, Blue took an instant liking to Kisha which was great to see. Kisha sent us pictures for every visit and we felt very confident that Blue was in good hands. This was our first time using a service like this and Kisha made the experience a positive one and we look forward to using Kisha in the future.

Michelle did a great job caring for our family member Lily. She was great about communication and I could tell she was really trying to make sure Lily ate while we were gone and even gave her a little preventative medicine when she noticed Lily eating grass. Lily seem to do much better at home than in a kennel being boarded so I’m sure we will definitely use Michelle again for future trips. I would highly recommend from Michelle.

About: I have always been an animal lover my whole life. I currently have a dog named Snowball who is 16 years old, he has been my best friend growing up. Taking care of him has taught me many skills such as bathing,walking, and medicine administration. I recently got a cat named Peanut! He is a sweetheart and gets along with Snowball :) I am looking forward to helping families out and meeting some new pet friends! I am currently home for summer! I recently graduated from Illinois State University and will be heading to graduate school in Romeoville in August. I am looking for jobs throughout the summer! I will treat your pet like my own! I am very energetic, responsible, and flexible. I will ensure that your pet and their needs are properly taken care of. I can easily adapt to different needs and situations when sitting. I am looking forward to making you and your pet happy!

These experiences have deepened my understanding of different animals’ needs and personalities, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or extra love while you’re away, I treat every furry friend like family. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and help make your life a little easier!

Saturday-Sunday, I offer open availability for both walks and pet sitting, making it easy to schedule care that fits your needs. I provide attentive, compassionate care for pets right in their own home, so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment.

Sylvie was incredible from start to finish. She went above and beyond to make things easy and seamless for us, and our pets absolutely loved her!! We needed an at home visit and she was able to accommodate our schedule and extensive needs for 2 dogs and a cat. I would recommend Sylvie to anyone!! She's the best out there.

About: I’ve taken care of many pets! From dog to tarantula I’ve had them all. I’ve handled the stubborn breeds like bull terrier to the loving breed like Labradors. I’ve raised multiple kitten litters and helped them get adopted out and took in many strays. I treat every animal as my own. Im available every week day after 8am! If im needed earlier I can make it work as well. My schedule may be more open soon depending on jobs. Pet care come first for me so no need to worry about anything preventing me from that. I can easily crate your dog if needed and have a fenced in dog park. I do live in an apartment complex so room isn’t as spacious as a house.

About: We have grown up around cats and dogs. We are the go to pet sitters for our families and friends. We have experience with cats, dogs, snakes, turtles, fish, and ferrets. We have house trained our dogs and know the patience required with the process. We both work from home so we are able to take dogs out as needed and nothing is better on a work break then cuddling some fuzzies. We have a large fenced in yard,so dogs can safely run and play. We always stay outside with them. Inside the house is pet proofed with couch protection covers and scratching posts for cats. All kitty litter is gated off from dog access. Water bowls are available upstairs and downstairs. If we are outside for more than 15 minutes we also bring a water bowl outside.

Thank you Courtney for taking such good care of our kitty. Communication with you was great and we highly recommend you to anyone looking for a cat sitter. We appreciate the pics sent each day. It was very reassuring, particularly since this was the first time we used Rover. Will definitely contact you in the future if the need arises.

About: Dedicated pet caregiver since childhood, growing up on a farm which provided me with extensive, hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. I am highly proficient and deeply comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels, from active puppies to senior dogs needing special attention. Friends and family have trusted me completely with their pets for years. My approach is rooted in reliability, positive reinforcement, and specialized attention, ensuring every dog in my care receives a safe, happy, and structured stay tailored to their individual needs. I am currently working part-time, which allows me to offer consistent and focused attention to my pet guests.I am generally available for walks and drop-ins after 2:00 PM. I have plenty of dedicated time to play, exercise, and cuddle with your pups! I manage my schedule carefully to ensure reliable, timely care that adheres perfectly to your pet's routine. I care for every pet in my home with the same dedication and high standards I use for my own animals. I am highly experienced in recognizing pet distress, administering medications, and following complex routines, skills honed both on the farm and in my own home. I ensure every stay is safe, structured, and stress-free, treating your pet as a valued member of my temporary family.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Fairmont on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 2,162 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Fairmont. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fairmont. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
