“My elderly temperamental dog loved her time with Adeib. She immediately took to him, something that rarely happens. He kept me regularly up to date and I think the two of them had a great time. Would definitely book with Adeib again.”
“Richard was fantastic. He wasn’t available for our full trip, but immediately offered to pair up with his girlfriend to cover the full time if we were okay with that while also being clear that he’d understand if we weren’t. They both came over to meet us and our super-senior cat, Mad Eye, ahead of time and were very communicative while we were gone, sending lots of pictures and updates on her eating and medication. They were also very helpful and accommodating when we had an unexpected change in travel plans last minute and very respectful of our space. We’d absolutely use either or both of them again!”
About: Animals have been a big part of my life since I was a child. I have always loved dogs and cats and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I studied Veterinary Assistant in my home country and worked for one year at a veterinary clinic. This experience taught me how to care for animals, pay attention to their behavior, and understand that every pet has different needs and personalities. I currently have a 2-year-old rabbit and a 3-year-old turtle, so caring for animals is an important part of my everyday life. I have a pet in Colombia whom I miss very much, and spending time with animals here brings me a lot of happiness. This is one of the reasons I decided to join Rover. I would love to spend more time with animals while giving them the love, attention, and care they deserve. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. I am patient, responsible, attentive, and always focused on making sure your pet feels safe and happy while you are away. 🐶🐱🐰❤️ I currently work from 7 AM to 4 PM, so I am available for pet care before or after work depending on the service and location. On Wednesdays and Fridays, I have much more flexibility and can spend the whole day with your pet. I am happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and companionship. 🐾❤️ When caring for pets in their home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar environment. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions about feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are secure. I also keep their space clean and organized. My goal is to give every pet plenty of attention, companionship, and care while their family is away. I want them to feel happy, relaxed, and comfortable in their own home. 🐾❤️
“Iris took a VERY good care of my pup!! She was constantly sending me photographs and videos of Koala every day without asking, which shows her responsibility and dedication to dog sitting. Koala always looked happy on videos and I could see Koala is in a very good mood and overall state, when I came back. I am sure they had a connection:) I am more than happy I chose Iris as a nanny. Definitely going to contact her again in the future!:)”
“I had Arin watch my dog & cats for a few days while I was gone and she was so great! I met up with her prior to leaving and I immediately felt comfortable with her and trusted her to take good care of my pets/ be in the house. She was super sweet and my dog took to her right away. She sent me daily updates and pictures and I felt completely comfortable while I was away. Would definitely rebook :) thank you Arin!”
“I booked a date with Esther and Jay so we could meet each other. I also thought it would give my cat an opportunity to become familiar with them. They arrived exactly on day and time we planned. Esther and Jay are warm and friendly and I found them a joy to have in my home. They asked good questions and I knew they would be wonderful caretakers for my cat. Now if I have to travel, I know my cat and my home will be well looked after.”
“Once again Joshua provided exceptional white-glove level service for my pet. And my pet is no easy task; he gets nervous around people and other dogs, and Joshua stepped up and took his time and put both me and my pet at ease with his patience and professionalism. I highly recommend booking with Joshua and I would give 6 stars if I could.”
About: I have 4 years of personal pet care experience and 1 year in professional experience with pets, from dog walking to doggy daycares! I’ve dog walked many senior dogs, as well as dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’ll be sure to follow any requests needed to bond with your fur baby and make sure they have the best time! I’ve worked with many companies from daycares to walking businesses. But I’ve been a personal dog walker for around a year now and I’d love to form a strong bond with your pups when needed! I shower my dogs with cuddles and loads of pet time at home. Once I can build a special bond with your fur baby I’ll be sure to treat them like my own!
““We couldn’t be happier with the care Anita provided for our precious Douglas over three days! From the moment we met her, it was clear she has a genuine love for animals. She made sure Douglas was not only well-fed and walked but also showered with attention and affection. Anita kept us updated with pictures and little notes about his day, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we came home, Douglas was relaxed, happy, and even a little spoiled (in the best way!). Anita went above and beyond, and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter. We will definitely book her again in the future!””
“AWESOME! And great at updating on my pup! My Jax loved her so much!!! So glad I found you and looking forward to having your help always!! Thank you so much for being such a wonderful person to not only my jax but to me as well! THANK YOU 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤”
“Alicia did a great job watching Ernie for the day. She communicated well beforehand, took pictures and updated me on how he did, and left the apartment the same as when we left. I definitely recommend her and would use her again!”
“Lia is a phenomenal house sitter who took amazing care of our two dogs while we were traveling out of town. It’s clear that she clicked with our dogs, and they became instant friends. She stayed in touch with us and provided timely updates throughout. She followed our instructions closely and even made sure to clean our apartment before leaving. We will definitely become repeat clients of Lia!”
About: I am very active and can handle dogs of all sizes and ages. I have lived with and cared for senior dogs, can handle my brother's rambunctious 3 year old German Shepherd, and haved walked lots of different dogs across NYC. I live minutes from a dog park and my partner is a nurse and dog-lover who is also on Rover and can help handle dogs who need extra assistance. If your dog needs someone to run around with, I am your guy. I am looking to watch or walk dogs on the weekend. I also work from home Thursday and Friday and would love to take care of your pet during my lunch breaks. My girlfriend and I cannot have a pet in our building and looking to fill the dog shaped hole in our hearts. I have a dog play pen in my apartment, but I generally will need to watch your dog at your place. I live minutes away from a dog park on the Upper East side. I have extra dog items as my girlfriend is also a dog walker.
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.
“Mark was absolutely fantastic with our 6 month old puppy Fig! So much so that we tried to book him again before our first booking was over! He was attentive to her, taking her out frequently as we’re working on potty training, and even teaching her new tricks! He sent videos and pictures and provided updates. He was also very prompt with timing which we appreciated. He is such a kind and caring person- one we trust in our home and with our furbaby anytime. Doesn’t get better than Mark!”
“I have booked with Natalia multiple times for my puppy, Watson. She is a fantastic communicator and very reliable. I feel completely at ease relying on Natalia to look after my dog.”
“Shariana took amazing care of our cats while we were away. She was very communicative and checked in regularly. She was super conscientious about our cats’ habits and needs. We felt confident that our cats would be happy and kept good company. She also left our apartment tidy and clean while she stayed at our place. Highly recommend trusting Shariana with your cats/pets.”
“We were able to enjoy our vacation without a worry because of Alene’s excellent attention to our two cats while we were away. We couldn’t be happier with our choice. Not only did she arrive on time each day and feed the cats and clean their litter boxes, she also spent time with them and even watered the plants. Alene is very honest and conscientious. She made sure the house was secured whenever she left and sent daily pictures of our happy pets. Our cats quickly grew close to her and I think the girl cat wanted to go home with her when we returned. It was a great overall experience.”

Maura was an amazing dog/house sitter! She sent lots of updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She took great care of Miley and my home, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!
Great sitter who gave us plenty of updates about Millie while we were away, making us feel comfortable with the distance from our cat and confident in the care she was receiving. Came back to a clean house and happy cat - can’t ask for more than that! Book with Robin, she is really great and you won’t regret it!
This was my first time using Rover, and I'm so glad I chose Mo! I had a quick one-night work trip, and she stayed with my very anxious Yorkie, who is still getting used to the city and our new apartment. She took wonderful care of him and put me at ease with updates and pictures throughout the night. She was incredibly responsive from start to finish and even left my home spotless. My pup seemed very happy, and I will absolutely book her again!
Alexis absolutely saved the day when a family emergency came up and we needed someone to house-sit our energetic lab during a very stressful time. She was understanding and accommodating through multiple scheduling pivots, top-notch with communication, and most importantly she took amazing care of Tilly. Alexis is a life-saver, and I honestly can't say enough good things!
Adeib is a very caring and thoughtful sitter. He came early so that we could go over all of ButtetScotch’s medications etc. He seemed to genuinely enjoy hanging out with our boy and our boy liked Adeib as well. We will definitely be booking him again and recommend him highly. Thanks again Adeib.
Desiree was absolutely wonderful with our girl, Topanga! She was so sweet, patient, and understanding, especially when it came to Topanga’s separation anxiety. She took the time to understand her needs and made sure she felt safe, comfortable, and loved throughout the day. It means so much to us knowing our girl was in such caring hands. Thank you, Desiree, for treating Topanga with so much love and kindness! We truly appreciate you and would happily book with you again! ❤️
Rachel and Mitchell were amazing! They took care of our two senior dogs at our home for 10 days. They made a home visit prior to the booking, and our dogs loved them instantly. During the booking, they sent lots of photos and were super responsive. They took such good care of them - it was a relief for us to know they were in good hands. When we return home, our dogs were calm and happy, and our home was cleaner than we left it! Don’t hesitate to book with them! They’re awesome!
Jean is an incredibly caring and sweet individual. He loves dogs and went out of his way (literally!) to care for our dog in between being a full time teacher. He hears every note about your pet and checks in frequently with videos to make sure everyone is updated. Thank you again Jean!!
Richard was fantastic. He wasn’t available for our full trip, but immediately offered to pair up with his girlfriend to cover the full time if we were okay with that while also being clear that he’d understand if we weren’t. They both came over to meet us and our super-senior cat, Mad Eye, ahead of time and were very communicative while we were gone, sending lots of pictures and updates on her eating and medication. They were also very helpful and accommodating when we had an unexpected change in travel plans last minute and very respectful of our space. We’d absolutely use either or both of them again!
We had an amazing experience with Ashley! She took great care of our dog, cat, fish and even plants while we were away, paying careful attention to instructions (like about walking our slightly anxious dog) and keeping us constantly updated about how everyone was. Our house was also in great shape when we returned. I’d definitely recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fairview is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $38 and $114 per night. 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 October 2026, there are 19,290 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 , 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 .
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 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 .
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.

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.
