“Kelly was wonderful! She watched my pup for a couple days so my family could go in a quick trip. She was very accommodating and kind! We will definitely have her watch our pup again if we ever need someone!”
“Very great experience. My puppy loved being there. She was able to accommodate my super random fluid schedule and was able to watch my puppy for me. Will definitely be using Nicole again!! Kept me updated as well on Bane and how he was doing.”
“My puppy had so much with Laura. She sent pictures and updates every day. Laura responds very quickly to inquiries both before and during boarding. I have already booked another stay a few weeks from now. Very pleased with my first time using a dog sitter.”
“Tina and her husband were wonderful caretakers for our sweet terrier Lilly. They were so welcoming when we got there. Their setup was perfect. They had a fenced back yard. They also took her on walks, brushed her, doted on her, let her sleep with them and made her feel so at home that when we came to pick her up she wanted us to come in instead of running out to the car as usual. She wanted all her peeps to be together. That is true testimony to the wonderful experience she had. Tina also kept us updated every couple of days with photos and gave us a full report when we came to pick up. Our girl had no problems so no more reporting was required. We were delighted with their services!”
“Sarah opened her home to my girls and made them comfortable. They usually go to their granny's but all were going on this trip, so it was a very big deal for them to stay elsewhere. They played, walked, rested, and probably were questioning coming home, they were given so much attention. Sarah shared photos and even with a snowstorm ensured they were safe and had fun. I was very pleased. We will call upon sarah again!”
“Ashley and her family were such good hosts for my doodle, Herman. He is a 1.5 year old big baby. It was evident in the photos and correspondence while I was away that he was getting all the attention he was used to—and more! Ashley was very responsive throughout Herman’s 6 night stay. I highly recommend letting her watch and care for your fur-baby too!”
“Mary took great care of Craig! He is not quick to trust many people and really seemed to be comfortable with Mary. He got to play outside, go on walks, and take naps- all of his favorite things.”
“Nana took such amazing care of my dog, Ducky, while I traveled for a wedding! She clearly has a passion for the little dogs and brings a ton of expertise in caring for them :) her pom Dan is such a sweet boy as well. She is a great communicator and always updated me with pictures/videos about how my dog was doing. I would 100% use her again!”
“They took care of Jake and he came back home happier than he has with any other sitters. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate you watching over Jake while I was away. Y’all are the best!”
“Madeline took wonderful care of our boy! She was very professional and friendly, and we highly recommend her. Especially if you have a smaller dog than can be anxious in a new/strange environment. Hopefully she's not booked the next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Matthew was wonderful with Kash he made us feel really comfortable leaving him. Updates were awesome many pictures and detailed text. Kash was such a happy camper. Will we use Matthew again? Most definitely without a doubt. Matthew is exceptional.”
“Jamie and Aaron are awesome! They offered a meet-and-greet a few days before our pup's visit, giving us a chance to meet them, their two dogs, and cats. From the moment you meet them, you can tell they really love animals and want to make each of their "guests" feel safe and at home. In fact, I think Row felt so at home at Jamie and Aaron's, he would have been happy to move in! Jamie kept us updated and sent pictures and videos throughout our trip - it was so fun to see him playing with their pups and snuggling in with them on the couch. We'll gladly book another stay with Jamie and Aaron!”
“Kellin was amazing with Charlie and clearly loves taking care of dogs! She and Charlie had some pretty terrible heat to deal with while we were gone but she made sure he got enough exercise safely, given the dangerous conditions. We would definitely trust her with our doggo in the future!”
“Shonte was absolutely amazing! I didn’t have to worry about my pups at all, they were definitely in great hands. She kept us updated with photos & videos throughout the day. She really went above & beyond any expectations. Great experience! I would 10/10 recommend!”
“Lucy was great! Excellent communication both before and during our dog’s stay. We highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a nice and comfortable place to stay in St. Louis.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,001 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fairmont City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
91% of Fairmont City sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Fairmont City landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fairmont City home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Fairmont City.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Fairmont City sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in IL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
