About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and would be honored to care for your furry family member. I had my beloved Toy Poodle, Chopin, from the time he was just 3 months old until he passed away this past July at the age of 16. He was such a huge part of my life, and I miss him dearly every day. As Chopin got older, he developed various health issues and needed medications and extra care. I became very comfortable administering medications and paying close attention to changes in his health, comfort, and behavior. Caring for him throughout his senior years taught me how important patience, gentleness, and individualized care are. I’m not quite ready to have another dog of my own, but I would absolutely love the opportunity to spend time with dogs again. I would be so happy to meet your pup, get to know their personality and routine, and care for them with the same love and attention I gave my own dog. Whether your dog is playful and energetic, shy and cautious, or a senior who needs a little extra TLC, I’ll treat them with patience, kindness, and care. I’d love to say hi and hopefully become a trusted friend to your dog! 🐾❤️ I’m a stay-at-home mom with a fairly flexible schedule. I’m generally available in the mornings and early afternoons, and I’m happy to work with your schedule when possible. I’m typically not available after 3:00 PM. I prioritize safety, comfort, and following each pet’s normal routine. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs, and I’ll make sure your dog is supervised and in a safe environment at all times.

I would give Megan 10 stars if I could. She was so sweet and caring to my baby boy. He had the best time with her and her baby Jim and was so sad to be leaving his new found buddy. She sent pictures and videos through the day which warmed my heart so much. I will only be calling on Megan to watch my Charlie from here on out. Thank you again!

Sydney is wonderful to Gus (my shadow who suffers from separation anxiety) - her dog Bernie is the sweetest and Gus loves his trips to see Sydney and Bernie - Sydney treats Gus like her own, sends us pics and videos and updates and this makes our family getaways so much more enjoyable knowing Gus in in such great care. So grateful to have found her!

Emily is an absolute rockstar and the sweetest human!!! She took such wonderful care of my baby! I just moved to the area and don’t have people I can rely on. I have always left my dog with people I know and trust so this was a difficult transition for me to ask a stranger to watch my literal child, but Emily was so warm and kind and is definitely an animal lover through and through. She treated Delilah as her own and gave her so much attention and care. I got so many updates as well that filled all the gaps of missing my little girl. I will be using Emily moving forward HAPPILY. Thank you so much for being so reliable and attentive to my old lady, she is so obsessed with you ❤️

From our initial meet and greet, I had no question in my mind that Gabby would be in good hands with Vicki and William and their puppy. Ruby. Vicki's home is super dog friendly and Gabby was made to feel right at home. Vicki sent me photos everyday and I could tell Gabby was comfortable and having fun. Which made me at ease on my vacation knowing there was no need to worry about anything . When I went to pick up Gabby she was in bed and had to be nudged. She was so comfortable she didn't want to leave 🥰 Thank you Vicki. I sure am glad I found you on Rover.

My dog absolutely loved her stay with Rachel! Rachel and her husband Jeff treated my dog like she was one of their own. Rachel was great about providing daily video updates, and every video I got my dog’s tail was nonstop wagging! Rachel finds creative and thoughtful ways to keep the dogs entertained. I was away for a week and felt so comfortable knowing my dog was well cared for and having such a fun time.

I had such a wonderful experience with Nathan taking care of my cat Golu. From the very beginning, Nathan was kind, patient, and genuinely caring. I was nervous about leaving Golu, especially because he is very attached to me and can be shy around new people, but Nathan made me feel completely comfortable and reassured. Nathan took excellent care of Golu, paid attention to his routine and needs, and treated him with so much love and patience. He kept me updated and made sure I knew how Golu was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I’m truly grateful to Nathan for taking such great care of Golu. It’s not easy leaving your pet with someone else, but I felt like Golu was in safe and caring hands. I would absolutely recommend Nathan to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and loving cat sitter. Thank you so much, Nathan! ❤️🐾

FAQs for Pet Boarding - Ferndale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Ferndale is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $67 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.

There are 1,599 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Ferndale. About 93% of Ferndale sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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.

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.

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 MI ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
