About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I actually begged my parents to let me get a dog, promising them that I would be responsible and take great care of him—and I’ve kept that promise ever since! Taking care of my own dog has taught me how much patience, attention, and love pets need every day. I’ve taught my dog eight different tricks, and I love spending time training, playing, and going on walks with him. Whenever I’m at my grandma’s, I always make sure to walk and spend time with her dog too. More recently, I’ve started dog-sitting for friends, which has given me even more experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a freelance dancer, so I have a flexible schedule and make my own hours. This allows me to make time in my day to give pets the attention and care they need. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, and keeping your pet company, and I’m happy to work around their normal routine. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I’m flexible and willing to adjust my schedule to make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they are always in a safe, comfortable, and supervised environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special routines or rules. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep pets away from anything unsafe, and always pay attention to their behavior and needs. I want every pet to feel comfortable, loved, and at home while their owner is away. I’ll also keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Hello there… Thank you for checking my profile. I have plenty of experience with Rover. I took a break and deactivated my account to enjoy life, but I am back! I grew up with dogs and owned (survived) a Siberian Husky for 15 years. They are my favorites, so if you have a rebellious Husky, I got you… I am an expert when it comes to animals and can assure that I am able to communicate with them and anticipate their needs, so your dog will, GUARANTEED, love me! I can do FaceTime for initial meet ups and to answer any question. We can negotiate regarding hours. Please feel free to inquire. If you are going away due to the holidays, I can stay with your pet until you are back. I do not only provide great care, but also can read your dog body language and provide exactly what they need and when they need it. I am organized and LOVE a clean space, so if you like your place immaculate clean, we will get along great.

About: I recently said goodbye to my 18-year-old senior pup who was still as active and playful as when he was a puppy, even in his last weeks with us. I was his main caretaker since we adopted him when I was 10-years-old, so I have plenty of experience caring for dogs and prioritize keeping them safe and happy! We also had other dogs growing up, so I am used to caring for multiple dogs, dogs of various ages and sizes, and dogs of all energy levels. Specifically, as my doggo aged, I gained a lot of experience with medicine routines, slower walks, attention to health details, and all other requirements of caring for senior dogs. In college, I would housesit for families with all kinds of pets (including rabbits, geese and chickens!) and this helped me pay part of my school costs. However, I enjoyed caring for other's pets so much, I have continued to do so for years after college! I love getting to know new furry friends and making sure they are happy, exercised, well-fed, and enjoying themselves while their parents are away! I am currently working part-time, and often only for a few hours in the evening, so I have lots of time and flexibility to care for you pup, prioritizing being available for prime walking hours in the sunshine! I am willing to work around my part-time hours to meet your dog's routine needs. I am willing to care for the dogs in your home so they are comfortable in their own spaces and can generally keep their normal routines. I am flexible and willing to follow any instructions about your space that you provide.

She is super communicative, punctual, and gave our pup all of her attention. We had peace of mind that our pup was safe and will definitely book Nicole again!”

About: He cuidado perros de diferentes tamaños y personalidades durante muchos años. Tengo experiencia con perros propios y también cuidando las mascotas de familiares, amigos y vecinos. Soy una persona responsable, paciente, cariñosa y muy atenta a sus necesidades. Me gusta que los perros se sientan seguros, tranquilos y acompañados mientras están bajo mi cuidado. Trabajo por cuenta propia y tengo un horario bastante flexible, lo que me permite dedicar tiempo al cuidado de las mascotas. Puedo organizar mi día para realizar paseos, visitas y darles la atención y compañía que necesiten. Siempre sigo cuidadosamente las instrucciones de cada dueño y respeto la rutina de su mascota. Me aseguro de mantener puertas y correas seguras, supervisarlos durante los paseos y tratarlos con paciencia, cariño y mucha responsabilidad.

“Mya was truly a blessing and the perfect kitty sitter! She was extremely attentive and loving to my two little spoiled cats. She was always on time and spent a lot of quality time with them. They were instantly in love with and felt super comfortable with her. I was away for work at my new job and wanted to fully committed without worrying. She sent many cute pictures and just went above and beyond. Hire her! But not when I need her 😅 (jk) you won’t regret it. ♥️”

“Jenny was absolute perfection, following every single detail of our care instructions without missing a beat. She kept us constantly in the loop with helpful updates and pictures so we always knew how our cats were doing. When unexpected changes arose with our cats' needs, she accommodated our last-minute extra requests. Knowing they were in such attentive hands made being away completely stress-free!”

Our cats were shy with her at first, but the Christmas tissue paper we left for them to play with was well clawed up, so they ended up having a great time! Thank you Hailey! ”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life. My grandmother had a special gift for rescuing stray dogs and cats, giving them the love and care they needed, and finding them forever homes. Growing up with her, there were times when our home was filled with 8 dogs and 5 cats, which gave me a lifelong love and deep appreciation for animals. I’m an experienced and compassionate pet caregiver with hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, administering basic medications, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention. I’m also attentive to changes in behavior and know how important it is to recognize signs of stress or illness. I treat every pet as an individual and strive to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they feel happy and cared for. I’m comfortable handling pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I approach every animal with patience, kindness, and compassion. I have an open schedule. So I am open to most requests, just need a few days notice before accepting your beloved pet in my home. I have a fenced house. There are no other dogs in the block so there won’t be no barking wars or intimidation when the pups go outside. I do have a cat in the home. I have a flexible schedule as a work freelance so I can adapt to the needs of each individual pet and owner. I have a 11 year old boy who is gentle and kind and has been around pets since he was born.

About: For the last two years I worked as a professional pet sitter in New Orleans, but it doesn’t stop there! I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life! Growing up my family had many dogs around, right now we have two in house and a total of 6 outside of the house belonging to my brothers and sisters! I’ve also taken care of plenty of cats in my life! I’m a big animal lover, I’ve been pet sitting for my moms friends since I was 15 years old, I walk, bathe, feed and play with every pet I watch! I make sure that the animals feel safe with me, that’s what I care about the most! I’m a big lover to all animals and I want them to know that they are loved! I’m a full time actress but I provided care 24/7! Most of my days are at home or auditioning or filming auditions so if you text me asking me to come stop by, I’m more than happy to drop everything to take care of your furry ones! If I’m at your house, I respect your home like I’d want someone to respect mine. I’ll stay only where you ask me to stay and do only what I’m allowed to do! But I won’t make it uncomfortable for the pets, I know they can sense this stuff! If you leave a list of how you take care of your pet for me to follow, I’ll make sure to follow it step by step!

About: I’ve been taking care of my dog since she was a tiny puppy, and I treat her like my own little child. I do the same for other people’s pets too - I love to give them food, give them some cuddles, and make sure they’re happy. And always remember to give your furry friend a special treat! As a remote worker, I find flexibility in my work schedule. I enjoy incorporating outdoor walks into my daily routine, which allows me to connect with nature and exercise while having the flexibility to do so with my dog. Through play, companionship, and nourishment. Will stay by the dog and keep the place organized and clean so it is a fair space for the house and the dogs

About: I live with my girlfriend who boards animals and I love how natural she is at this! It’s lead me to want to start caring for animals too! I'm a genuine animal lover with a real passion for dogs and cats. I understand what it means to care for my furry friends like family, and I treat every animal that I care for with grace and kindness. Your furry baby will get daily walks, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable space to be themselves. Honestly, watching a dog's face light up when their owner returns? That's what it's all about for me. I am a freelance writer and have plenty of free time on my hand to care for up animals. Meaning I’m available Monday to Sunday! I have a home where my partner watches pets most of the time. We have a backyard and a cozy living space but I would most likely want to stay at your home where your animal can feel comfortable and safe.

About: My pet care experience began in 2022 when I helped care for and raise my grandmother’s domestic shorthair cat, whom I still treat like my own. Before 2022, I grew up caring for family dogs, gaining experience with handling, grooming, and caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. Since 2023, I have volunteered at the ASPCA, where I’ve learned from animal care professionals about providing animals with patience, compassion, attention, and consistent routines. I now try to bring these experiences to pet sitting, intending to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and like family while in my care. Hi, and welcome! I’m Ariana, and I’m a part-time dog handler at a doggy daycare, but decided to start pet sitting in 2024 to expand my skills and experiences to help more fur babies thrive! I’m available Monday–Friday with weekends off, giving me a flexible schedule for pet care. My job is also aware that I do pet sitting, so I can always let them know if I need to make any arrangements with my shifts to match your pet’s routine. If anything, feel free to review my calendar for more details on my availability. ¡También hablo algo de español! I live in a small apartment, but I will ensure it’s spacious, clean, and pet-friendly, ready for your pet’s arrival so they can be comfortable, with enough space to play, run, and sleep anywhere they like. I also live with family, including my two younger siblings, aka my two little active helpers, who make sure to be gentle, patient, attentive, and willing to always give me a hand with your pet so they’re never alone or bored.

About: I grew up with dogs all my life and have always had a deep love for them. My most recent dog, Rocky, passed away in 2022 after being raised in our household from a puppy. I was his primary caregiver during his senior years, providing him with the love, care, and attention he needed. As a senior and hospice dog, Rocky required additional care, including regular shots and medications. Caring for him taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and attentiveness when caring for older dogs and those with additional needs. Please reach out to me regarding availability, as the calendar does not allow me to detail my schedule as specifically as I would prefer. I am a trusted member of the dog-care community here in Cliffside Park, with experience caring for dogs of various breeds, sizes, ages, and mobility levels. I am also VERY flexible with scheduling and committed to maintaining consistent schedules for my clients. Providing loving and attentive care according to each client’s guidelines, including feeding, medication administration, and any other special care needs. I also maintain clear communication with clients and promptly provide updates regarding any concerns or changes I notice.

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Fairview on Rover is $33 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $50 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 26,672 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Fairview. 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.

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!

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 .

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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
