“Sunnee was on time to walk our dogs and knew exactly what to do to entice our scared puppy to go on her walk. She sent pictures and a message of their walk together. Thank you so much for caring for our babies!”

About: Big animal lover here! I’ve helped many friends care for their pets over the years- everything from dogs and cats to birds. I’ve also done a few house sits out of the state. I don’t have a pet of my own right now, so I love being able to spend time with and care for other people’s furry (and feathered) family members. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I work mostly remote and make my own schedule. That flexibility allows me to plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, whether that means morning walks, midday potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or just hanging out and giving them some company. I’m home a lot, so pets get plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day instead of being left alone for long stretches I love getting outside for walks and fresh air, so daily walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to. I also try to stick closely to each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and relaxed while their family is away. My goal is always to make them feel safe, cared for, and a little spoiled :)
“Meghan has been great to work! Shes’s helped my shy collie become more comfortable with new people while ensuring he gets an adequate amount of exercise with his afternoon walks.”
About: I've taken care of dogs and pets since I was a teenager and love spending time with animals! I am attentive and energetic to ensure your pet is well cared for and feeling at home. I have gone through the puppy stage with two family dogs recently and am open to any aged dog. I work remotely Monday through Friday, with a flexible schedule, and am available to give your pet all the love and attention :). I look forward to hearing from you! I work full time from home with a flexible schedule to allow for time spent on pets :). I like to get out of the house for walks myself a few times a day and would welcome any furry friend to join! I ensure your dog feels at home and pay attention to their unique needs offering outside play time as well as inside play time, and walks if desired! I am flexible to adjust to any dog’s routine.

So whether you are on vacation, on a business trip, have an out-of-town family emergency, or recovering from surgery you will know your pets are being loved and well cared for. Thank you for getting to know me and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby soon! I am flexible with my time. I am available for house and pet sitting.

I love to walk so your dog will get plenty of exercise. Your pet will be treated like one of the family. That means they can sleep on the bed with me.

About: I think everyone should have access to a reliable pet sitter or care taker. Things happen, we love our dogs no matter what. I'd like to be that reliable person to help even in tight pinches. I currently work weekends only, as I'm attempting to save more for professional dog training certification. I do have a dog myself that is available for several reasons if needed, that being said, any owners preferences will always be prioritized. I am here to help you, on your conditions for your dog. That is priority to me. I do have a mixed large breed of my own, she is capable of allowing social visits if thats what owners prefer. However, my dog is never required to be there. I will absolutely prioritize your pets safety and comfort over anything else.
“Lauren was great to work with. She sent me multiple updates through out our booking and included pictures of Belle.

Will book with her again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 186 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 bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Ferndale after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the 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:
- 100% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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 walker.
