“Emma was able to help accommodate us with a last minute sitting. Her communication was great and she was very responsive to messages. She was also great with our pups. Would not hesitate using her again!”
“Julie was amazing! We are new to using this site and were very apprehensive about who we chose to house & pet sit for us. We couldn’t have gotten luckier choosing Julie. She provided very reliable & frequent updates and followed our instructions. It was so great to have peace of mind leaving our babies in her care!”
About: I’m experienced with high-energy & large dog breeds! I focus on structured, alert walks and attentive supervision. Above all else, I prioritize your dogs routine & safety first. I’m currently working part time, so my schedule is pretty flexible! I tend to be more available in the mornings & afternoons, but am happy to do evening work should the need arise! My schedule tends to vary week to week, but my evenings get busy from Thursday to Saturday. Otherwise, I’m happy to help! Safety, structure, and home security are my highest priorities. For house sittings and drop-ins, I strictly follow the owner's established rules, keep entryways locked, and double-check gates/doors before and after any outing. For walks, I practice active leash management and remain hyper-aware of my surroundings—maintaining safe distances from triggers, bikes, and other dogs. I ensure fresh water is always available, and send detailed updates after every visit so you know your pet and home are completely secure.
“Caitlin was fantastic! This was our first experience using Rover and leaving our pups for five days. She kept us informed the entire time, sending updates and pictures of our dogs. Our home was in perfect condition when we returned, just as we left it. Our pups got along wonderfully with her, and we will definitely be booking her again for dog sitting.”
“We had such an amazing experience with Dani watching Laylah! She went above and beyond in every way and treated Laylah like she was her own. While we were away, Laylah unfortunately had a seizure, and Dani handled the situation with so much care, calmness, and compassion. She kept us updated the entire time, made sure Laylah was safe and comfortable, and truly gave us so much peace of mind during a very stressful moment. She also sent tons of updates, pictures, and messages throughout the stay, which made us feel so connected and reassured. It was obvious Laylah was getting so much love and attention. We are beyond grateful for her kindness, communication, and the level of care she provided. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring for their pets!”
“Tania was a great dog sitter! She provided plenty of updates/pictures of the dogs! She watched my two Great Danes and left the house so tidy! I would hire her again, and y’all should too.”
About: I have many years experience with my pets as well as sitting other pets. In my home and others homes. I love all breeds and sizes and have a background in simple training as well as agility. My most recent pet recently passed so I look forward to filling that void with the love of your fur baby for the time being. What joy they bring us! Give my services a try and I'll treat your pet as it were my own. Thank you for taking the time to read a bit about me and don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have! Looking forward to meeting and sitting your family dog/ fur baby!! Lots of freedom at my house for your precious pets!
“Javel took great care of our Nina and updated us with video and pictures of her while we were away! This was the first time we used a dog sitting service and we're so glad that we found Javel! Highly recommend her and would definitely use her services again in the future! 😁”
About: Hello, my name is Elaina and I have been a veterinarian technician for over 5 years! I am so lucky I get to help animals and would enjoy doing it outside of work too.I feel comfortable doing many things including administering medication via any route, watching their behavior, bowel movements and urination, along with their appetite and water intake! I am comfortable with so much more as well (obviously I would hope so considering my job lol) I am very certain your pets will be in great hands! I look forward to establishing a strong long term relationship with both you and your babies! I do work a full time job but on the days I have off which are every Wednesdays some Saturdays and every Sunday I would like to make a little extra. Every other morning besides those days I would quickly take care of the babies but later on in the evening will have time to spend with them. As long as pets have everything they need I am comfortable taking care of them, I just need to know their routine and what their behavior is like. If there are special requests those are appreciated. Your babies will be treated as my own as they are precious innocent creatures and deserve the entire world:)
“Melissa was amazing! Took wonderful care of our golden and our home during a week long trip, providing us with ample photos and updates along the way. Would highly recommend her services! 💛”
About: My wife and I are huge pet lovers. She's been doing pet foster care since she was young and I've had the privelage of owning a few animals myself. I absolutely love being around animals of all kinds and loving on them as I would my own. We also have experience with medication administration. We're flexible and adaptable and here for your fur babies! If your fur babies like to be around other animals we have a very loving dog who loves all animals and loves to play. I look forward to speaking with you and getting to know your pets! Ally is a stay at home mom, though she does have a job that takes her away periodically she's at home the majority of the time so there is almost always someone available to give the animals the love and attention they deserve. We have a fenced yard with some space to run and stretch or get some fresh air. Sometimes we take multiple dogs at a time but not normally. If separation is required a crate is preferred but we do have extra rooms and baby gates to give the dogs their own space is we need to leave the house or for sleeping hours.
“Bryce was AMAZING with taking care of our two dogs, Beaux & Radar. He sent me frequent pictures, some normal and some edited to be hilarious! We didn’t worry once with them being in Bryce’s care. You can definitely tell that he loves animals. We would definitely use him again!”
“House and dog sitting. Olivia is kind and friendly. Pets were loved and cared for. Pictures and updates were provided. Needs some improvement on following instructions and home care.”
“Kassandra was great! When initially meeting my pups, she took the time to ask questions and let them get to know her. While sitting, she sent some great photos of my much missed pups and was a great communicator! Definitely would recommend!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in New Fairview is $44 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $44 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.

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 New 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 New 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 New 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.

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.
