“Rachael was absolutely wonderful—we couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter. She came twice a day for a full week and went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she take excellent care of our cats, but she also sent thoughtful updates and the sweetest photos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town. She was happy to help with a few extra things like bringing in our mail and watering plants, which we really appreciated. Our cats can be a bit skittish at first, but by the end of the week they clearly adored her—which says everything. We came home to happy, relaxed cats and a well-cared-for home. I would wholeheartedly recommend Rachael to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive pet sitter.”
“This was a meet and greet, Lori was great. She asked all the needed questions. This was the first caregiver our Great Pyrenees immediately warmed up to. We feel very comfortable leaving them in Lori’s care.”
“Booked last minute, same day, Leylah walked into some NOT-so-great circumstances with the task of handling a big job with other sitters cancelling. She handled with grace and I could rest assured that she took care of my kittens well!”
“Charity is highly responsible. She ensured my cat was visited and fed every day within the timeline I preferred. It is a great relief to not have to worry about anything while away. She ensured my cat was well taken care of. Thank you Charity!”
“Taylor provided amazing caring for our pet family. She is very reliable and provided detailed updates and pictures on every visit. She gave everyone special attention and made sure their individual needs were taken care of. She even went the extra mile by picking up our dog’s new RX when our vet changed our dog’s medication while we were out of town. This helped maintain the treatment for our dog without interruption. We will definitely book with Taylor again and highly recommended her!”
“Madison was very flexible and helped us out last minute by providing care for our elderly dog and two kitties while we were out of town for the day. Highly recommend Madison!”

About: I have about a couple of years of experience with dog sitting for my friend when she goes out of town. She has had two dogs in my ten years of knowing her. I love animals and I always want to protect them as well. I have been around dogs since I was a little toddler. I have a long history with caring for dogs. As I got older and was in more and more activities, my parents thought it wasn't a good idea to have a dog anymore. So I would just play with my friends dogs and that's how I kept up with my relationship with dogs. I would be a great sitter simply because I care about dogs and have a huge heart for them. I always want what's best for the dog.

About: I have over 5 years of professional animal care experience and well over 10 in personal animal care experience ranging from raising and training litters of puppies to assisting with horses. I have had animals all my life and was raised to put their care before my own. For the last 5 years I have worked in vet clinics while in school at UGA pursuing a degree in animal biological sciences. While working in those vet clinics I have worked as both a boarder and a vet tech at a fear free clinic dealing with both calm and more aggressive animals. My duties in these positions were watering, feeding, walking, and administering medication for pets ranging from 6 months old to elderly. I am very well versed in all types of animals and am happy to answer any questions you may have for me! I am a teacher and am entering summer break so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets! While I cannot house sit due to having a dog of my own I am more than happy to take time to visit your fur baby when necessary while my dog plays with my family pets at home! I provide a safe, calm, and reliable experience for pets during walks and drop-in visits. I treat every pet like my own and follow all my clients instructions carefully to keep pets comfortable, happy, and safe. Safety is very important to me, so I always use secure leash practices, pay close attention to my surrounding during walks, and make sure doors and gates are secure before leaving. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners are sure their pets are in good hands.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fairplay is $13 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $19 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 3,626 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fairplay. 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 Fairplay. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
