“Alexandria was fantastic! She is extremely responsive and I got tons of pictures while we were away. I felt totally comfortable knowing she was taking care of my pets.”
“Kayla was awesome! She was super flexible and took good care of our 2 boys. One had a small cut on his leg that bled a bit . She informed us, assisted in cleaning up the mess, and made sure that he was good for the night. We appreciate the extra effort and care! Definitely would book again!”
About: I was raised with dogs & cats my entire life, and even helped train a few. I have experience in raising puppies and younger pets, but wouldn't prefer to take care of any too little. Even though I don't currently own any, I have a lot of experience from previous pets and taking care of other people's dogs through a side-gigs and friends! I would love to meet your animals and take care of them. Their happiness and well-being means the most. I currently attend college part-time and work full-time, but I work with total flexibility, so I have tons of free time. I'm free any weekday minus Monday and Tuesday (varies week by week), and free almost every weekend. I have a ton of time to care for your pets! :) Regardless of where I'll be taking care of your pet(s), I can ensure that nothing will stay messy! Whether the pet needs to take any medication, needs any variations in feeding times, needs to be let out/walked at a certain time, etc, I can certainly guarantee that nothing will be left behind. You can always feel free to leave specific instructions regarding the house or place at any given time!

About: I’ve been trusted by family and neighbors to care for their pets, and I always show up with patience and love. I provide consistent care, walks, feeding, and lots of attention. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I also respect your pet’s routine and home, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. I am currently in school and usually out for about 4 hours for classes. Outside of school, I’m very active and enjoy going on walks, which fits perfectly with dog care. I plan my schedule to make sure pets get attention, exercise, feeding, and companionship. I’m reliable, organized, and communicate clearly with owners to ensure their pets’ routines are followed. I have a fenced yard where your dog will be safe, secure, and well supervised. I also live near parks where I can take dogs on enjoyable walks. I adjust to each dog’s needs, routine, and energy level to provide the best possible care. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, feeding on schedule, and lots of affection.

“Tonya was gracious enough to walk our dog on a blocked day. This was the first time I used Rover and everything went so smooth. Tonya was a fantastic communicator and really was flexible with some of my last minute needs. I would highly recommend Tonya and will definitely reach out to her next time”
About: Hi! My name is Rebeca. I am 27 years old with a lifelong passion and love for animals. I have been caring for animals since I was younger. It’s been a dream of mine to work with animals and I’m glad this app gives me the opportunity to do so.

I’ve had the pleasure of having Ana walk fufu this past weekend. Not only was she available last minute, her report cards at the end their walks showed how much care and love she has for animals. She is considerate, attentive and knew how to create a safe atmosphere for my fufu. Fufu definitely had a blast getting spoiled and having extra time to sniff everything in sight. Thank you Ana!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Ferndale on Rover is $16.05 per walk (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 4,995 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Ferndale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Ferndale. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Ferndale.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ferndale. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
