“Jordan followed every instruction to the T. She was very polite, professional, responsive and communicative in the months of planning leading up to our big trip. The only mishaps while we were away were handled adeptly without stress or drama and Jordan even made one more visit to care for everyone when our return flight came in later than planned. We arrived home (from being thousands of miles away for a week of almost no cell service) to find our +20 member fur family happy, well fed and not at all worse for the wear. The house was just as we had left it. We truly look forward our next opportunity to book Jordan. Mahalo nui Jordan- you made a once-in-a-lifetime family reunion happen. We are so grateful we had your care here at home so we could be away to make these priceless memories!”


“This was my first time entrusting my girls to your care, and I am extremely satisfied. I was truly impressed by your wealth of experience and the genuine care you showed.”

“Pam is the best. Leaving the care of beloved pets and your home to someone you don't know is scary, especially for an extended stay while you're far away. I took a chance on using Rover and was immediately impressed with Pam's profile and reviews. I liked that she's mature, not working full-time somewhere else, and has experience caring for senior dogs, more specifically, a senior Doberman. We were able to book early, which gave us time to get to know each other, and it was a good match from the start. She is easy to work with, conscientious and thorough, and genuinely loves the work. She planned for contingencies (important for a long stay), checked in daily while we were gone, and took great care of our old dog, finicky cat, and home, exceeding expectations. We returned from a three-week trip out of the country to happy pets, a clean house, and a good friend. Thank you Pam!”
“Very playful and energetic with my pups! Made sure the my dogs had everything they need and gave them lots of love. While on vacation we received lots of photos. We are happy that we found someone who cares and loves our dogs just as much as us. Jennifer is someone you can trust!”

About: Hello there! After recently saying goodbye to our beloved senior Chihuahua, Moe, our home feels far too quiet without any furry friends. Starting this new chapter in pet care is very exciting, and I'm looking forward to giving your pet a safe and fun place to stay. I am the primary sitter but will be assisted by my girlfriend Sam who lives with me. Your dog will benefit from a multi-person home with plenty of attention and companionship. We have no pets or children so your furry friend will be the king or queen of the house! Whether your pet needs a quiet spot to lounge or energetic play sessions and walks, I am flexible to their personality. I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes for family & friends over the years. I pride myself in being attentive to your pet along with flexible and easy to work with. My goal is to make your pet feel completely at home while allowing you to relax during your travels! I am happy to provide as many updates you would like. My longtime girlfriend and I both work from home everyday! We have plenty of time to care for your pet. We can accommodate your pets schedule however needed. Our home is free roaming and pet friendly. Doggies are welcome in bed or on the couch if they desire. We also have a very large backyard and enjoy walks if that is your pets preference.

“Margaret was fantastic with my pup! We had a meeting set up to introduce her to my pup and he loved her. I received daily pictures and updates on how he was doing, and I couldn't be happier. Would recommend! Margaret was fantastic with my pup! We had a meet and greet beforehand so she could get to know him, and he loved her right away. While I was away, I received daily pictures and updates on how he was doing, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She was also incredibly understanding and flexible when I experienced flight delays on my way home, which I really appreciated. I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided and would absolutely recommend Margaret to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Kamille stayed over at my home to watch my cat and left me with a peace of mind during my vacation. I came back and my apt was the way I left it and most importantly, my cat was super happy. Highly recommend working with her as she’s super easygoing and communicative!”

About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, crate routines, and keeping pets company. I’m especially patient with puppies and energetic pets, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to provide regular updates and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently in school, so I have flexibility in my schedule for pet care, especially during the daytime, evenings, and weekends depending on my class schedule. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide consistent, reliable care rather than rushing through a visit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions, keep doors and gates secure, stay aware of my surroundings during walks, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I’ll maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I treat every home and pet with the same respect I would want for my own.
About: “I’ve worked with dogs at an animal shelter for about a year”. I love dogs with my heart. I can feed, walk and just spend time with your dogs. I’m currently working part time but I’m free to be there for you when needed after 2:30 from Monday-Friday and on weekends I’m free all day long. I have a fenced yard hat so dogs are able to run around the yard and still be safe while having fun. I love taking my dogs to the park.
About: I have plenty of free time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I treat each pet like family, offering personalized care, companionship, and comfort. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, I ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you’re away. I enjoy having a routine, and caring for a dog fits perfectly into my day. With my current schedule as a full-time online student, I have plenty of time to give pets the attention, care, and companionship they need. When caring for pets in my home, I keep my own Shih Tzu (8-year-old female) in her own room and take each dog out separately when needed. I ensure they get 2-3 walks a day, feed them as directed, play with them, and allow them to roam freely. I make sure all their needs are met. When taking care of pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions, taking their pet out 2-3 times a day on a walk and feeding as directed.
About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets throughout my life, from parakeets, hamsters, frogs to dogs and cats. Friends and family trust me to care for their pets and homes while they’re away in both city and suburban communities. I’m responsible, dependable, and treat every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own. I currently work part time, so my schedule and availability are very flexible! Whether is squeezing in walks or check in’s, overnight care, or a mixture of both, I’m confident we can come up with a manageable care plan. I follow routine! I am accommodating. I communicate regularly with owners through updates and photos. I also respect their home and keep everything clean and secure.
About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have a 7 year old German Shepherd and 4 year old black lab mix. I love all animals and spending time with them. I have experience with taking care of diabetic cats who received insulin twice a day. I work full time from home so I have flexibility throughout the day. I am about to become an empty nester now that my youngest will be heading off to college in August. I’ve found that I have a lot of free time. I am available to come to your house as often as needed to care for your fur babies. I can take your dog for walks or just snuggle with your cat, whatever is needed.
“Jorden was very nice. He took good care of the dogs. There weren't messes to clean up when we got home. We were very happy with our choice to have him watch our pets. we would do it again.”

Aleena was just wonderful and we cannot thank her enough. She walked in to a unique situation caring for a senior pup with a back injury and handled it calmly and kindly. She was responsive and took great care of our girl! Would recommend her to any pet owner. Thank you again, Aleena!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Fairmont on Rover is $44.4 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 2,778 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fairmont. 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 Fairmont 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 Fairmont 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 Fairmont 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.

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.
