“Karri was GREAT !!!! I was worried because I have one cat that can be a real handful but she had no problems with him. Sent me several pictures while we were gone showing both cat sitting or laying with her. From the first time we met I felt really comfortable with Karri. Would use her again for sure !!!”
“Carol took great care of Baylee and Georgia. She was professional in every way. We felt very comfortable with her in our home. Our home looked exactly the way we left it, maybe even a little better. The pups were just as fat and happy as ever when we got home!”
“Dana was amazing with my Mabel girl! She’s a lot to handle and she did so good with her, send so many updated and photos & even stayed with her an extra day when my travel plans got cancelled! Definitely will book with her again ❤️”
“Lily was so sweet, responsive, flexible, and most importantly caring to our dog! We are incredibly picky with sitters and I’m so happy we trusted Lily with our home and our pup. Will absolutely recommend her to my friends and will work with her again!”
“Matthew did a great job taking care of our dog. He showed up on time, made sure Hank got his walk, and gave him the special care that you would expect from a family member. We highly recommend him.”
“Malesa stayed with our two chihuahuas for 7 days. She was amazing, she even cooked for them! My puppies didn’t even miss us!! We are so grateful that she stayed with our puppies!”
“Hannah and Matt were great with Harper! They were prompt, communicated well, followed all instructions and sent pictures and updates! They kept the house clean and even went the extra mile washing sheets and towels.”
“Best Rover we have had so far! Bella took great care of our dog. She was easy to communicate with and was super courteous and clean staying at our apartment for the weekend! Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth is SO sweet and took great care of my sweet fur baby! He was so happy and so loved on while I was away. My buddy has separation anxiety and knowing that sweet Elizabeth was loving on him while I was away made me feel a million times better!! We’ve already booked her again and Spade can’t wait for more snuggles!”
About: I’ve worked with dogs and cats the last 7 years. In a boarding and clinic environment. I have experience with every size dog and cat as well as medicine administration (oral or injection). I’m usually home with my fur babies unless I have to run errands. I might be gone up to 4 hours. When boarders are in my home I try to stay with them more until comfortable. Then if they are social can introduce my pack and slowly meet one by one. Eventually everyone will be able to be out and play. I have a fenced in front yard and fur babies to play with your pets. We have a variety of temperaments and ages, based on your pups body language I would probably have the right fit for them :) or they can also have alone time and be rotated out to avoid other dogs. I crate all my dogs at night before bed. I have cameras around my yard and outside the house for security as well.
“Courtney was great! We were gone for 11 days and it was such a relief to know our fur baby was well taken care of, even when he had a run in with a skunk. She handled it like a champ! I highly recommend her.”
“Alexis was fantastic. She stayed with our dogs for a few days. We got great updates. But most importantly, when a series of bad storms swept through our town, she was there to comfort the nervous puppies.”
“We love Rachel! My original plans fell through and she was able to watch my animals on short notice. It was like I never left! They seem happy and stress free when I returned home. Highly recommend!”
“Allie did a great job of watching our dogs while we were away. She was communicative and left our house looking great! She followed our instructions well, and I would not hesitate to hire her again in the future.”
“Tricia was absolutely wonderful! She took such amazing care of our English Mastiff while my husband and I were away. Our dog can definitely be stubborn and has her own little routines, and Tricia was so patient and understanding with her. She even did laundry while we were away and made coming home so seamless and easy. Everything was taken care of, and it was such a nice feeling to come home knowing both our dog and home had been so well cared for. We could not recommend her enough!”
“Merci was amazing to have sit our pup during our 5 day vacation. She sent pictures and videos throughout each day which made it easy for us to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing our baby was being well taken cared for. Her communication was great after a few days when our dog didn’t want to eat in the morning. She even offered to let us FaceTime. She left our home clean and I will definitely be asking Merci again to sit for us.”
About: I won’t just take care of your animals, I will give them the same love that I would give my own. What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands on experience, calm confidence, and the physical capability to care for your pets in any situation. Having raised and cared for animals since I was five years old, including ten years with my own Saint Bernard that I still own, and three years with cats, I bring over 15 years of practical expertise with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. Growing up with a giant breed means I have the physical strength and confidence needed to handle large, powerful dogs on walks with ease, but I still know how to respect a cat's boundaries and subtle body language. I am completely unintimidated in problematic situations; I won't hesitate to reach into a dog's mouth to safely remove a dangerous object, and I know how to step in calmly and effectively to break up a fight if one ever occurs. I’m 20 years old and fit which means I can take your dogs on long walks as well as play with them for long periods of time. I am also capable of playing rough with big dogs because my Saint Bernard loves to wrestle so I am comfortable with it. Animals naturally gravitate toward me and feel at ease in my care, ensuring your pets stay safe, happy, and loved while you are away. I am a junior in college and I go to Belmont University but have most of the day off Monday Wednesday and Friday after around 11am-12pm and am completely free on the weekends as long as we coordinate and I don’t already have other plans. Whether staying at a client's home or dropping in, safety, trust, and continuous companionship are my highest priorities. As a natural homebody who prefers spending time relaxing indoors, I am able to offer your pets constant presence and attention, ensuring they are rarely left alone and never feel lonely. I strictly adhere to your pet's established routine for feeding, walks, and medications while keeping a clean, secure, and respectful environment in your home. I am hyper vigilant about hazard prevention like locking doors and gates, as well as double checking for toxic items, and maintaining full physical control on walks, while providing you with regular daily updates and photo check ins so you have complete peace of mind while you are away.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals. I grew up on a farm with dogs and cats and have taken care of animals since I was a little girl. I’m currently working part time so during the weekday morning and afternoon hours I have a lot of time for pet care. I also have availability on weekends as well. I follow the clients instructions for caring for their pets thoroughly. I make sure they’re well fed, cleaned up after, safe, comfortable, and cared for.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Fairview is $60

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Fairview is $32 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $29 and $56 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 2,082 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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fairview. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
