About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who understands how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality, needs, and routine. I know that every animal is different, and I want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much our furry family members mean to us. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I’m also comfortable following specific care instructions and keeping you updated with pictures and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pets feel right at home and give you confidence knowing they’re in reliable hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends! I currently work as a teacher from 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM during the week, so my weekends are the perfect time for me to dedicate extra attention and love to your pets! I’m an animal lover and have two cats, one dog and 3 goats of my own who I care for every morning/night. When I get home, I make sure my pets get the attention they need, including taking my dog for a walk right away. I’m used to building pet care into my daily routine and understand how important consistency is for animals. On weekends, I have more flexibility to spend quality time with your pets, whether that means going for walks, playing, providing companionship, or simply keeping them company. I’m committed to following your pet’s normal routine and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time and play. I also have a friendly dog and two friendly cats! I understand that every animal has different needs and comfort levels, and I would always prioritize your pet’s safety and well-being. I would make sure pets are supervised, have access to fresh water, and receive plenty of attention and care. I also understand that not every pet is comfortable around other animals, so I would always take introductions slowly and keep pets separated when needed to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable.
“Monique did an amazing job with my two dogs, Annie and Oakley. Communications was great the entire time and it was so helpful in making me feel at ease while we were away. They went on great walks and loved their time with her. House was in perfect condition when we got home which is always nice. Thanks Monique!!!”


About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always been the person friends and family trust to care for their pets. I have a Havanese named Pita who is my little adventure buddy. He’s 6 years old, about 16 lbs, and is a very friendly little guy who loves being around other dogs. I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and won’t be left alone during the day. I live in a clean, tidy apartment right off the Centennial Trail, so we love getting outside for walks and fresh air. Whether your dog loves adventures, playtime, or just relaxing and cuddling, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved like they’re part of the family while you’re away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. Your pup will have plenty of company, attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime throughout the day. Pita and I already enjoy daily walks on the Centennial Trail, relaxing at home, and getting outside whenever we can, so your dog will be included like part of our normal day. I want every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me. I live in a clean, tidy apartment and always make sure pets are cared for in a calm and safe environment. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether they want to play, go for walks, cuddle, or just relax, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need.
“Eva did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for our husky and calico. She was very friendly, polite, and cordial in person at our meet and greet and was available via phone/text during our absence for progress updates. We returned to our pets in good nature and our home just like we left it. I would not hesitate to book Eva again for house sitting/pet care! Thank you very much.”

About: Hi there! Anyone who knows me knows I am an animal lover! I am interested in helping you out with your pets! I have grown up with all different pets and would love to provide you and your pet with a trusting and fun experience. I am confident with all different types of dogs and all animals. I have animals of my own currently. I treat all animals like my own and am a very responsible individual! I also grew up on a farm with many other pets so I am opened to farms if needed. I can confidently say I would be the right option for you and will provide your pet with anything they need! I look forward to hearing back from you! I am currently a stay at home mom looking to make some extra income. I love animals and would love to get to hangout and care for yours during my time! I try my best to keep your pets on the same routine as you do. I know how important our animals are to us and their safety and happiness is my top priority. I will treat your animals as I would hope someone would treat mine.
“Winifred (Wini) has stayed with our two dogs and cat twice now, and she continues to be conscientious, caring, and willing to go the extra mile. During this recent stay, one of the dogs had an upset tummy, prompting multiple accidents and night time trips outside. If she hadn’t mentioned it, we wouldn’t have known, because the house was spotless and free of any telltale smells when we returned home. Wini is a trooper. She was also great with providing daily updates which we really appreciated.”

About: I won't just treat them as a "pet" I treat all animals as family. I have taken care of various dog and cats from family members and friends since I was a child. This included staying over, walking, feeding, training and playing. At the moment I am pursuing schooling for dog training so I have open availability I usually ask for a days notice but it never hurts to ask. I have had experience with larger dogs (German shepherds, Great Pyerenese, Pitbulls and Saint Bernards) as well as small dogs (Chihuahua's, Shih Tzu and Dachshunds). I also provide baths and nail trimming when asked. I enjoy running too so if your looking to get your dog in shape! If your pets coming to my house they must be crate trained (for when I sleep) and friendly with other dogs.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pets, from dogs and cats to reptiles and rodents. I’m attentive to each animal’s unique personality, routine, and needs, and I treat every pet like my own. 🐾❤️ Every day looks a little different depending on each pet’s needs, but my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to keep them happy, comfortable, and cared for. I work remotely online, so I’m home and available throughout the day, with my only set commitment being about an hour at the gym. Outside of that, my time is spent around the pets—feeding, walks, playtime, medications, cuddles, and keeping up with their normal routines. I primarily offer in-home pet sitting so your pets can stay comfortable in the place they know and love, surrounded by their familiar routines and smells. I follow each pet’s individual needs—from meals and walks to medications, playtime, cuddles, and everything in between—and treat every animal like they’re my own. Since I work remotely, I have plenty of flexibility to be home and give your pets lots of love, attention, and companionship while you’re away!
“This was our first time ever leaving our pandemic puppy-and boy we were glad to find Lori! We had a long initial phone consultation to make sure Lori understood our 15 m/o German Shepherd pup has recently regressed with naughty puppy behavior, and wanted to make sure she was up for the challenge. We had an in-home meet and greet which proved that both Lori and our pup instantly got along. We were thankful to be able to get away and feel our pup was in good hands. Lori was up for the challenge and worked hard to indentify our pups’ inconsistencies and how to get along with her. We will use her again in the future for sure!!”


“She was absolutely amazing with both of my dogs! I have a big pit bull who can be intimidating and barks at people she doesn’t know, as well as a very temperamental Chihuahua, and she handled them both so well. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care. She stayed in communication with me throughout the entire booking, and she sent me updates with pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, and great with dogs of all personalities! I made a last minute booking and am so glad she was available next day:)”

About: While growing up, we always had dogs, living with my best friend, i was her dogs' training instructor, and I have almost always lived with dogs' myself. I love them, despite them being much more needy than cats, but alike, we've always had cats too- even some households where cats and dogs weren't allowed to intermingle. I'm quick to catch a runaway and I've got an open schedule most the time. Our animals are like our children, they need attentive love and care, they sleep a lot, but their bedtimes food schedules and habits are as much of their nature as habit, and breaking their habits, never results in good endings. I operate my own business as SeansServices.Com, I do several tasks like landscaping, cleaning, moving or hauling. My schedule is pretty open until i have a job, then after my job, I am wide open again. There are times I'll do a long distance move, but I do know others on Rover I can recommend or refer if I am unavailable. I will always be up front. I currently cannot offer at home care, but I play with, work with and ask for or look up schedules every time they're given, with screen shots and alarms just like any job, I take my jobs seriously and my attentive and alertness on high. I never know what an animal is capable of until they show me, so I treat them all fairly with common warnings in mind, while addressing and watching for new concerns.
About: I will love and care for your dog as my own. I have always been a huge dog lover. As of now I work at MUV Fitness and am an advocate for helping people feel better about themselves and life. My old dog Bailey is a Beagle/lab that I loved with my whole heart. I adopted her 5 years ago, and she passed away. She was pretty old. Her past owner used to run marathons with her, so we get along great. I will walk/run your dog to make sure they have the exercise needed, but i will also just cuddle and show your dog all the attention they need, until you come home to do so yourself. I also had 2 pitbulls with my old roommate that were both rescues that are huge lovers. I do also provide light housekeeping, poop scooping, brushing, and bathing if needed. I am currently enrolled in school, but all is online so I am available most all day every day. Just with some zoom meetings on my headphones I have a fence backyard, but can also care for your animal in the comfort of your home. Honestly open to whatever works best for the owner and pet!
About: I grew up with so many pets from cats and dogs to bunnies and snakes. My roomate has a cat and Ive been traveling a lot so no pets for me right now but I would still love to interact with pets on my day to day. I work 9-5 but it is a flexible schedule. I can visit your pets before and after work or during lunch! I can adjust my schedule based on your pets needs. I am very empathetic, kind and considerate of your home, rules and expectations with your pet. I can not promise your pets will not be love bombed.
About: 38 year old mental health care worker/student who loves dogs and would like to work with them as dogs are my favorite thing in the world I am good with virtually every type of dog. I have a mini dachshund and an American buldog so I know the small dog and I know the big dogs behavior. Will treat your dog as if it was part of the family I'm available throughout the week especially in the evening. I am also free most weekends. Will house sit or walk. I am reliable and committed to providing the best service as possible I feed and take care of my dogs everyday. I give them their medicine when they need it. I am aware of ticks and unusual behaviors and when to seek treatment for them.
“Lisa was wonderful to work with both leading up to our trip, and the entire week we were gone. She was so accommodating to any request we had and provided frequent photos, videos and updates for how our dog was doing. We came home to a clean house with a happy/tired dog. We will definitely use Lisa again in the future.”

About: I've cared for dogs (small to medium size), cats, ducks, fish, chickens and some birds since in my teens. I've looked after friends, family and neighbors pets for feeding, boarding, day care, walking, play, etc… I am an artist, so I am free to be home all day therefore my availability is Monday through Sunday. My hours are flexible and accommodating to your pets needs. I have a house with a tall fenced yard and 3 dogs that are dog and people friendly. Your pets can play with mine or they can be placed in a separate area. During good weather, I leave the back door open so dogs are free to come in and out of the house. All dogs sleep inside the house together or if requested in a separate room.
About: Whether you are coming home from a day of work or play, a weekend adventure or a well-earned vacation, you will come home to tired, happy and exceptionally well cared for pets. My name is Patricia and I have been caring for pets for over twenty years. I had my own pup for 10 blissful years and he was my world. Therefore, I passionately understand the importance of proper care for the four-legged members of your family. Having no children or pets of my own allows me to focus 100% of my time on yours, curating customized experiences, based on their individual needs. I am professional, reliable and have additional references to provide, if desired! I am a very active individual, usually covering 15 miles per day. I am centrally located in Spokane, and am willing to travel to you! I would be honored to give your pets a safe, fun and dependable experience while they are in my care. 100% available to craft a schedule that works best for each pet of yours in my care. Currently, this is my full-time job and I love it! Our home and yard are very pet-friendly. We have a six foot tall fence, completely enclosed to provide room to play, roam, relax while at the house.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 646 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West Fairfield. 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 West Fairfield 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 West Fairfield 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 West Fairfield 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.
