Christie was excellent. My puppies loved her. While we were away, she sent me pics of the puppies every day doing something in their normal daily routine. She took them for walkies, which cemented her and their relationship because it is one of their favorite activities which we told her was optional because they get super excited and is like walking a team of pulling sled dogs. She handled it with ease. When we returned home after the "happy to see you" reunion, the puppies were calm, full of tail wags, and going back to Christie to be petted and loved on. Christie also watered my garden for me while we were gone. She is very neat and tidy and the house was exactly mirror to when we left the week before. Our puppies have limited access to other people so they are suspicious of all new people they encounter, Christie won our dogs over with ease because she has a very gentle, kind, and genuinely caring nature as person. If you want worry free pet care and house sitting you should contact Christie.

About: I've personally owned many different types of animals throughout my life including rats, racoons, squirrels, ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, chickens, goats, dogs, and cats. I currently own 3 dogs (Great Dane, an Australian Shepherd, and a Lab mix), 2 cats, and 6 chickens. I worked as a groomer and a broader for a while at a pet store. I understand every animal has certain needs that need to be met for it to live a happy and healthy life and I will work my hardest to meet those needs. I'm a stay at home mom that has plenty of time to hang out with any animals that may need it. I'm very comfortable with any animal I meet and I love all animals. Also available for farm animals and reptiles. I'm a stay at home mom with kids in school so I am pretty available all day long every day. I stay at home on most weekends too so I'm available almost 24/7. I have 3 separate fenced in yards they may use. My personal dogs are crate trained and I have crates available for others to use. I can keep them completely separated from my personal animals very easily or they can play together after a safe introduction.

About: If you’re looking for someone who will love your dog like their own and bring a level of professionalism and medical awareness most sitters simply don’t have, I’m your person. As a registered nurse, I’m trained to recognize subtle changes in behavior, respond calmly in emergencies, and confidently administer medications or follow detailed care plans. I’m also a proud dog mom to two golden retrievers, so I understand firsthand the energy, affection, and attention dogs need to truly thrive—not just get by. I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds with different temperaments and needs, and I helped foster six puppies in high school, which sparked my lifelong passion for animal care. Your dog won’t just be supervised—they’ll be genuinely cared for, understood, and treated like family in a safe, loving environment you can feel completely confident about. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because as a nurse, I only work three days a week, which gives me four full days dedicated to being home and fully present. On my days off, I have complete flexibility for walks, drop-ins, boarding, playtime, and sticking closely to your dog’s normal routine. Even on the days I do work, my schedule is predictable, allowing me to plan dependable care and maintain consistency. Nursing has made me highly organized and intentional with my time, so pet care isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I thoughtfully plan for. Your pet would receive focused, reliable attention from someone whose schedule truly allows for it. I tailor my care to each pet’s personality, routine, and needs, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They receive structured playtime, regular potty breaks, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection throughout the day. I’m mindful of maintaining their normal feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any medical needs, and as a nurse, I’m comfortable administering medications and monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. Safety is always a priority, and I create a calm, supervised environment where dogs can feel secure and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress. I follow all instructions closely, whether that includes specific feeding guidelines, medications, crate routines, or preferred walking routes. I spend quality time with them beyond the basics—playing, cuddling, and providing companionship—so they don’t just feel “checked on,” but genuinely cared for. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away.

About: I am a CMA, and have worked in 4 vets offices over the years. I can give medication (oral, topicals or shots). I have been a groomer for 9ish years (traveling to homes and in grooming shops). I also come packing a huge heart ready to love whatever babies you have. I have cared for them all and really to care for yours!💜 I recently had surgery in March but have been cleared for work. I am a mobile groomer for myself so my schedule is very flexible. Working with vets/in hospitals, I have learned the best way to keep your animals safe and happy is to stay in their own home. Cars and new environments can cause a lot of stress or anxiety. Drop in visits and house sitting keeps your pet in a safe and comfortable place without the exposure to others or their pets.

Aunya was fantastic. She made sure all four dogs were well taken care and even cleaned up as she left the house. She was very responsive and provided check-ins. I would definitely let her take care of my wild pack any time!

About: I’ve spent the past 10 years caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and clients. I genuinely love animals and enjoy building trust with each pet I care for. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or calm companionship, I make sure your pet feels at home and well loved When you book with me, you can expect reliable, attentive, and loving care for your pet. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, litter box care, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety, making sure they feel secure and stress-free while you’re away. I’m patient with shy or independent cats and attentive to pets who enjoy extra affection. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I am responsible, attentive, and caring for your space and requests! As the eldest child in my family, I was always the spokesperson and main caretaker of our family pets. Since moving back home to huntsville, I’ve pet sat for multiple friends in my circle studying here. The program has completed so I am looking to branch out and offer my services to all who need a helping hand! I’m working part time as a dance teacher and taking courses online. I am available to be present with your pets and can be as accommodating as possible to even the most strict pet parents. I respond to your pets needs right away as I am available for the majority of each day. I follow feeding, walk, and other care schedules, and give them all the loving to keep them comfortable while you’re away so you don’t have to worry (:

About: I’ve had dogs throughout my entire life, but currently I have a 7 year old golden retriever I treat like my child! I’ve always trained all of my dogs myself and participated in many safety training classes regarding training. I am currently in graduate school and unemployed, so mostly it’s just me and my golden at home most days, so I have plenty of spare time to help in your pet’s care! I am open to boarding and house sitting, but also happy to do drop-ins or just walks! I have a big fenced in yard and a sweet golden who loves making new friends to keep your pup company! I have plenty of room to crate your dog if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of large dogs, small dogs, cats, ferrets, ducks and basically any pet you can think of. Everyone deserves to have someone care for their pet properly while they are away. I will keep your furry family member safe and happy while you are! I also take photos while they are with me that I can send to you with updates. I can’t wait to meet your fur friend!!! I am currently in college online. When needed I substitute teach for my primary income but it is a very flexible schedule. I care for animals more often than subbing and devote my workdays towards your pets. I have one very friendly dog, but if your pet is not into socializing they can stay separated. I want to make sure you come back home to a pet that is as happy as when you left. My hope is that whether you're on vacation or business trip your furry family member will be treated like they are part of my own family.

FAQs for House Sitting - Fairview

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 311 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fairview. 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 Fairview 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 Fairview 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 Fairview 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.

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

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
