“Jaden watched our 2 dogs this week, one of which is 1 year old with endless energy. He did an excellent job of taking care of our girls, even singing to and celebrating our older girls 7th birthday. Would definitely recommend.”
“The bestest!!!!! If you want someone to watch your cats and feel secure they’re being well taken care of, get Hanna!! She is so caring and makes the extra effort to make our babies feel comfortable and content. One of our kitties is very shy and Hanna did a great job of respecting her space but also making sure she’s fed/doing well. The other kitty that loves attention, Hanna made sure to give it to him! In addition, she made sure the water fountain was filled and the litter box clean! We are so appreciative of her and will definitely work with her again and recommend her care!!!”
“This is my second time booking with Kayla and she was great again! Chloe really likes her, and she sent photo updates throughout the day, which I appreciated. when I was worried about Chloe’s eye, she responded quickly and sent photos that put me at ease. She also kept the house clean and took out the garbage, which was a nice suprise! I would absolutely book her again.”
“Sandy was wonderful taking care of our senior dog and puppy. She made sure to give updates on the dogs and also sent pictures. I knew they were in good hands with Sandy. Will definitely be using Sandy in the future.”

“We had a great experience with Emina and Jackson. They did so good with all our dogs with their varying personalities. Also they were very accommodating when we requested an extra day. Overall great experience and would use them again.”
“Brittany is the best! I didn't think I would ever find a dogsitter that could handle my high maintenance dogs, but Brittany seemed to handle them with ease. She communicates well and was accommodating to schedule changes. I would absolutely use Brittany's services again!”
“Maura stayed with my dog and cat for 11 days while I traveled abroad. She was easy to communicate with, and I could tell she treated my animals as if they were her own. I highly recommend Maura for your pet sitting needs!”
“Christian was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we met him, we knew Dobby was going to be in wonderful hands—and that he’d found a new best friend. Christian took such great care of him and kept us updated throughout his stay with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed, and very loved-on pup! We would absolutely love to have Christian stay in our home with Dobby again and couldn’t recommend him more highly.”

“Chris was fantastic during his overnight stay with Olive and Davida! He took exceptional care of both of them, instantly tuning into their unique personalities and needs. Olive was in pure dog heaven—Chris kept her entertained with her favorite activities, including playing frisbee, going swimming, and even turning on Animal Planet to satisfy her complete obsession. Davida the cat was equally well cared for, relaxed, and content throughout the stay. Chris is reliable, attentive, and thoughtful, making sure our home and pets were in great hands. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!”
“Cristy was wonderful with our very energetic lab mix! We truly appreciated the photos and updates. It gave us peace of mind during our night away. We came home to a happy, tired pup.”
“Heather was an incredible and knowledgeable sitter! I have a senior dog that needs someone who was going to be able to give him extra care and attention. She was able to do exactly that! She was compassionate and judging from the many pictures she sent during the sit, he loved hanging out with her too!”
“Erin was wonderful. She did an advance “interview “ with Max prior to the sitting. She sent us many pictures on multiple days which we loved. She comforted our max during thunderstorms and the like. She brings her baby with her. Even though we don’t have kids max took to watching after both Erin and her baby. Although we did not make our final arrival time, we worked the key exchange and the house was better than we left it with dishwasher items put away. We had daily updates most days and Erin was always responsive. We would definitely recommend her.”
“Amanda stayed at our home for 6 days with our Honey Girl while we were away on vacation. She kept in touch with updates, pictures, and even video chats. We knew our girl was in good hands which made our trip more enjoyable. Amanda also had our home like it was when we left which was much appreciated.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Fairview
I can’t recommend Sydney highly enough! I hired her through Rover to look after my cat and house/garden during an 11-day trip, and I couldn’t have been happier with my choice. From the very beginning, Sydney was quick to respond, professional, friendly, and punctual for our meet-and-greet. My cat is rather shy, so Sydney’s daily updates were almost comical at first. On day one, my poor cat was hiding under the bed looking scared. But Sydney patiently won her over, and before long, my cat was happily sleeping on Sydney’s lap! It was clear that Sydney took the time to talk to her, earn her trust, and make her feel safe and comfortable. When I returned, the house was spotless, my garden watered and my cat seemed happy and relaxed. Sydney is a terrific person who genuinely cares about the animals entrusted to her. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and professional cat sitter and I would absolutely hire her again!
I was nervous because my dog has severe separation anxiety and this is the first time I left more than 8 hours since I inherited her in July. Annie and Sydney did great. Sydney checked in with me the first two days when she got to the house in the afternoon and she sent pics of my pup. Over the weekend Sydney stayed home with Annie. Sunday she checked to see what time I would arrive home, so she didn't leave too soon. I am very pleased.
Hanna took excellent care of our furry family while we were away. Its the longest we’ve been away from them ever. She sent updates and pics and knew what questions to ask when we met her before our trip (questions i didnt know to ask) which prepared her and us for our trip. We will happily ask Hanna to care for our cats and pup again!!!!
Elizabeth was great! Our dogs, cats, and fish tank were taken care of exceptionally. She last minute was able to administer an ear cream to one of our dogs every day while we were gone. She also helped with watering the outdoor garden. The house was in perfect shape when we came home after a week+, and the pets were perfectly happy!
Natalie was extremely communicative and sent us photos of our fur babies cuddling with her all weekend. They clearly felt loved and trusted her completely! She went above and beyond by doing tasks like washing towels and bedding at the end of her stay along with taking out the trash - things we NEVER would have expected her to do! We will 100% be reaching out to Natalie again!
She is the best pet sitter we have ever had. We never worry about the care and love our dogs will receive while we are away. She always sends a lot of pictures and videos and daily notes about each day they spend with her. If your dogs are everything to you and you miss them every second you’re away from them then Shelby will give you peace of mind with her gentle and loving care. She is also great with older animals or ones needing special medical care. You won’t regret hiring her for the care of your beloved animal companion.
Rachel was great. We communicated clearly and concisely upfront what care our 2 dogs required and she was candid about her availability. Rachel was responsive and respectful - she stayed in our home and upon return, our home was in same condition as when we left and our pups clearly had been well cared for by Rachel. I would hire her again without hesitation.
Kayla has been taking care of our two dogs, a rough coat collie and cattle dog mix for almost 2 years now. Both of them have their very own unique challenges and personalities, sometimes being very high maintenance. Kayla consistently gives them the attention they need and makes sure to communicate regularly when at our home. Kayla not only takes exceptional care of our fur babies but our home as well. I can not recommend Kayla enough for any pet needs you may have.
Tori did an amazing job as always house sitting for our two kitties while we were away for 3 days. She sent photo updates daily, made sure Kat doesn't eat Kit's food lol, and tried new ways to play with them like having Kit sit on a trash bag while dragging it around the room. She is very attentive, responsible, and has a huge heart for taking care of fur babies. She is excellent with cats and even took out our trash and kept the place spotless. This is Tori's 5th time watching our kitties this year. We are so grateful for her.
An awesome young lady!!! Based upon the “smile “ on Rocky’s mug …I’d say he’s got a another besteee! I believe our home is cleaner than when we left! Summer was able to navigate his routine and we communicated well if there were questions. We experienced some travel scheduling changes that I asked if she could accommodate…she immediately responded and made herself available! A+ experience
This was my first time using Elaina and I couldn’t have been happier. She was a good communicator, she was timely, very neat, and my cat and dog were very well taken care of. She sent a few pics to show how happy our pets were. I plan to use her again in the near future!!

The average cost of House Sitting in West Fairview is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $103 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 727 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across West 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 West 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 West 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 West 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.
