“They accepted my booking on short notice and were very responsive when I had questions. Crystal sent photos and updates. I would definitely have them watch our dog again.”
“Leslie was so super great with our boy Dota. She and her dogs just loved him so much and had a great time playing. We would recommend Leslie to anyone.”
“Eileen and Jeff took great care of my shy dog. Opie seemed comfortable and happy staying with them, and they sent photos regularly so I could see for myself. Communication was clear and easy; overall a great experience.”
“Milo had a great time and was taken care of exactly as his medical needs required. We appreciate the flexibility with his pickup and will certainly return if we need boarding again.”
“I wish I could properly express how amazing Katie is, and how much peace of mind we have when she is taking care of our dog! She had a passion for animals and he always comes back happy and tired from all the fun she provides! She is flexible, has GREAT communication skills, and always makes us feel as if she enjoyed our little guy. We are repeat customers of hers, and she is always our first choice!”
“Megan is pretty much... amazing! Penny has found her second home with Megan and her family. I never worry for Penny and I always know she is having a great time going on lots of walks, playing frisbee, and being loved. I totally recommend using Megan for your next rover house!”
“Fantastic service with Kayla. I've already booked ahead for some future trips. Teddy and Mochi got along like two peas in a pod, and Kayla sent plenty of updates for a helicopter dog mom like myself. I highly recommend her services.”
“It was awesome for Dobby and we trust Jennifer. When I first requested she was one of the few who really wanted to know about the dog and that definitely built our hope and we did a video call. During the call, she showed us the place and gave a lot of details about how she takes care of our loved ones. After dropping Dobby off, we were anxious because it was his first time and Jennifer made sure to give us updates (including photos and videos). We only had good experiences boarding with her and would highly recommend her.”
“Adrienne and Melinda were absolutely amazing! I knew they played a lot with my pup when he came totally worn out. He almost didn't want to leave. I plan to use Adrienne and Melinda again in a couple of weeks when I'm next out of town.”
About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember, and my fiancé and I have had our own pets for 6 years now. I know how hard it can be to leave your pets behind, but I am here to help in any way I can. I have two cats and two dogs of my own which means I have experience with puppies and kittens, and with things like giving medications as well. I will care for your pets as if they were my own 😊 I currently work full-time Monday through Friday, however, my fiancé and I have worked potty breaks into our schedules. One of us comes home every day for a mid-day potty break for our own pets, and we would be happy to include your pets as well. We have a big yard and decent space inside for your pets. Our pets are allowed on our couch and they usually hang out with us; it would be no different for your pets. We have space to set up a crate if needed and we even have a few crates available so you don’t have to haul yours around. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs with you!
“Macie was AWESOME with our 10 year Westie! She’s very communicative and was flexible with some travel changes on our side. 10/10 would recommend. Cleo would love to be back!”
“Darien is fantastic. She takes such good care of my girls, is a great communicator, and friendly. I'm always so happy when she's available to take care of them because I know they will be in good hands.”
“What a blessing we found Kinzie!!! Our dogs love her and is always in communication with us via text, photos and videos. Charli & Shelby told me to tell you Kinzie thank you for taking great care of us!!!”
About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life from dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and I’ve had experience with goats, sheep, cows, geese, ducks, exc. I helped someone who had dogs that had puppies and that was challenging but an amazing experience. I’ve got lots of love and experience with all different dog breeds & temperaments. I currently have dogs, cats, chickens, and geese of my own! I am currently a stay at home parent to two kiddos. One is in school so most of my days are free. Tuesdays & Thursdays late afternoon/evening are blocked out as we have a prior commitment of gymnastics. I have a fenced yard at home but I do live in the woods and have some bit of land that is not immediately fenced off. I always keep a close watch on my pets daytime or nighttime and I would do the same for yours if they were at my home. I would follow the pet owners lead and what they feel is best for their pets at their own home and do my best to go above & beyond meeting the fur baby needs/owners needs.
“Sent a lot of great pictures. Communicated back to me quickly. Was very active with my dog and took her swimming, on hikes, to the park, etc. 10/10. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you!”
“Megan is a great communicator, sending frequent videos and photos of our pup, to help put my mind at ease. Our 8-month-old golden retriever puppy particularly enjoyed some the enrichment she provided, like a sprinkler splash pad in her fenced backyard.”
About: I have owned several dogs in my life. I have helped trained multiple dogs for special need accommodations. I often take care of friends dogs and horses when needed, and have experience handling anything from small dogs to large farm animals. I would love to take dogs on walks and am skilled in training dogs if that something you are looking for. I take boarding where I have a big fenced yard. I do have a cat, but she has room to roam downstairs and to be outside so the dog and cat would never have to interact. Because I work a professional Monday-through-Thursday schedule, my weekends are completely cleared and dedicated to pet care. I am entirely off from Friday through Sunday, meaning my schedule revolves 100% around making sure your pup has a fantastic weekend getaway of their own while you are away! Safety and peace of mind are the absolute foundation of my boarding service. Because I only host one guest dog at a time, your pup receives my full, undivided attention in a highly controlled, secure, and loving environment.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fairbanks home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Fairbanks.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Fairbanks sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
