About: Dogs have always been apart of my life. I volunteered in a service dog program called 4Paws4Patriots and in doing so I got to learn so much about dog care/handling. Ever since then, dogs have always owned a piece of my heart, I just had to figure out how to follow my passion. Which led me to American k-9 interdiction (AK9I), where I took a 13 week course and became a professional dog trainer. I now have three dogs and own my own dog training business (Big Paws Protection). I have owned a Siberian husky, German Shepard, and an Alaskan Malamute. I currently own a Belgian Malinios. A lot of work have gone into them and still go into them. Caring for dogs can be challenging but I love the work and seeing the dog improving is worth every minute I am a professional dog trainer and have been around dogs all my life, I feel that I can handle most any situation you can throw at me. If I got the chance to work with your dog I would take it.
About: I love dogs, and I love taking dogs to the dog park. I am a very outgoing person. I love companionship. I will make your dog tired so they will have a good night sleep. I have taken care of many dogs: small dogs, medium dogs, large dogs and giant dogs. I have taken care of family friends dogs since I was 9. I can handle any type of dog or size of dog. My dog gets along great with other dogs. She loved meeting new dogs, shes very hyper and very playful. She lovers wearing out other dogs in our yard or at the dog park. I have a park right next to my house that I usually walk my dog at. It is a fairly large park so your dogs will be a little tired after our walks. I am currently a stay at home mom with my almost 5 year old and 6 month old. I have all the free time in the world to care for your pets! My dogs are on an eating schedule 2 times a day once in the morning and once at night, we do daily walks and play time outside!
“Lauren was so amazing! We had to find someone very quickly to watch our little one and Lauren was so accosting. Our little guy had such a great time and Lauren and her family were very friendly and amazing people. 5 stars all around!”
“Debbie took excellent care of my little guy. She was communicative and flexible, I would definitely use her day care service again. Chancho was happy and exhausted after I picked him up from his play date and I can tell he had a great time.”
“Our dog was very excited to arrive after recognizing Destiny’s house from our meet and greet with her dogs. Sounds like our dog had a great and fun day in her care, and Destiny’s communication was great!”
“This is the first time I used this app. And I tried to find a sitter who has good reviews and so then I found Melisa. She is the best! I would totally recommend her! Sushi and cupcake had so much fun!! And her daughters are really sweet! They treat my dogs like a part of their family! Thank you so much, melisa and to your daughters as well!! Will totally book again with her! ♥️”
“Samantha is great! Good communication, replies quickly, and is very friendly. My one year old dog is shy at first but Samantha worked hard to help her feel comfortable. The second time I dropped my dog off, she was so excited to go in to see Samantha. I felt comfortable knowing that my dog was well taken care of and enjoying her time at Samantha's house.”
“Brittany was great! Very good communication. Sent pictures of my pup during the day and was mindful of my old girl’s joints, making sure she didn’t play too hard. Would definitely use Brittany again!”
About: We live on a 4 acre "farm" close to town. I've had dogs on and off all my life. we got our Border Collie (mix) when he was 8 weeks old; he was born 7.25.23. we have an enclosed dog run (10x43) with igloo, 8x22 tiled sunroom (where your pet will be crated at night), added a pet water fountain in sunroom (stainless steel continuous flow which discourages bacterial growth), open grassy backyard and a field to run in. Please contact me for a free meet n greet. I'm a retired senior so I'm usually available 24/7. We have dog crates available (required for overnight stays). We have a large 8 x 22 tiled sunroom available for boarding. our dog and i walk "down to the barn" several times a day and your dog would join us. we have a semi-fenced property in addition to the 10 x 43 fenced dog run. I can also tether your dog outside on the lawn. We have a kiddie pool available for water lovers. we have added a stainless steel water fountain in the sunroom for fresher water (discourages bacterial growth). we can combine 2 crates for a cat condo: small one for litter box and large one for bed, food and water for overnight and open to full sunroom daily.
“My dog was happy when I picked him up. He was well fed and taken care of. I can tell when my dog has a good time at a sitters home and my dog definitely had a good time. I will rebook again :)”
“Sarah was so friendly, accommodating and communicative! Even before we spent a full day with Sarah, our pup sprinted to her. Talk about a green flag! We really appreciated Sarah rescheduling our meet and greet a few times as well since the holidays are such a busy time.”

“Bri & Lyle are the best! Our 2 yr old aussiedoodle had a great time with their family. Bri is great to communicate with and our dog was happy and safe. Thank you!”
“We left our dogs with this sitter for a couple of hours and had absolutely no worries. One of our dogs had never been left in that type of setting before, so I might’ve been a wee bit nervous,.. but wendy was great, well versed and versed and made us feel quite comfortable. When we picked them up, both dogs were happy, chill and appeared to have a fantastic time and were well cared for. Great communication and updates even within the short time frame… We would highly recommend this sitter and would gladly book with them again! 🐾❤️”

I love leaving Ozzy with Erica and he feels the same way. She communicates well throughout the day with photos and videos and always asks beforehand whether travel or treats. I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs someone to care for their fur babies.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Fernley commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 NV 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.
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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 273 sitters in Fernley, 89% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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 sitter.
