Denise is fantastic. I booked her for 2 visits per day for 3 days. She truely connected with Bella and was absolutely wonderful in following the instructions that I left for her. Each visit she spent a full hour playing and relaxing with my dog. I had to change the appointment times a couple of times due to schedule changes on my end. Denise was very accommodating with my needs. I highly recommend her for care of your pets.

About: Hi! My name is Ale im offering services including dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I have experience caring for pets of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior dogs and anxious pets that need extra patience and attention. In addition to dogs, I am comfortable caring for a variety of animals, including cats and reptiles. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. I currently care for my own dogs, a turtle, and leopard geckos, which has given me hands on experience with different care needs and routines. I prioritize safety, consistency, and making pets feel comfortable in their environment. Whether your pet needs structured care, playtime, or just companionship, I treat every animal like my own. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.❤️ I am available Monday-Friday afternoons & all day Saturday & Sunday! I could possibly accommodate some things so don’t be afraid to ask !! I can care for anything from reptiles to fur babies 🩷 I have a very spacious and fenced backyard available for your dog. I will take care of walking and potty breaks as needed. Following your feeding hours.

Emilia was amazing. She worked around our schedule to meet our needs for taking care of our fur babies. Emilia was professional and kind during the visit with the doggos. I would recommend her if you want your dogs to be well taken care of while away from home.

About: I have experience caring for dogs, fish, chickens, ducks, geese, and other small animals, as well as maintaining gardens, plants, and outdoor spaces. My background as a Life Planning Coordinator has strengthened my attention to detail, communication skills, and ability to follow instructions carefully. I am especially patient with senior pets who may need extra attention, slower walks, medication reminders, or a consistent routine. I am also comfortable caring for shy, anxious, or newly adopted pets who benefit from a calm presence and gentle reassurance. As an avid gardener and nature lover, I can care for houseplants, vegetable gardens, herbs, and outdoor watering schedules. Homeowners appreciate that I treat their homes with respect, keeping them clean, secure, and well-maintained. I provide regular updates, photos, and prompt communication so pet parents can enjoy their time away with peace of mind. My goal is simple: to care for your pets and home as if they were my own, leaving everything happy, healthy, and well cared for when you return. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work independently and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent attention, companionship, feeding, walks, playtime, and home care throughout the day. I typically begin my mornings with outdoor activities, gardening, or walking, making it easy to incorporate pet walks, feeding schedules, and exercise routines. Throughout the day, I am attentive to each pet's individual needs, whether that means companionship for a social pet, quiet reassurance for a senior pet, or maintaining established routines to reduce stress while their family is away. Because I value structure and communication, I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise requirements, and household preferences. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can relax knowing their pets and home are receiving attentive care. Whether caring for pets during a house sit, drop-in visit, or walk, my goal is to create a calm, safe, and loving environment that keeps pets comfortable and happy while maintaining the routines they know and trust. When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is maintaining the routines, environment, and level of care they are accustomed to. I understand that pets feel most comfortable when their daily schedule remains consistent, so I carefully follow feeding instructions, exercise routines, medication schedules, and household guidelines. I take time to get to know each pet's personality, preferences, and comfort level. Whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply sticking to a familiar routine, I adapt my care to meet their individual needs. Safety is extremely important to me. I ensure doors, gates, and windows are secure, monitor pets during outdoor activities, and remain attentive to any changes in behavior, appetite, or well-being. If concerns arise, I communicate promptly with the pet owner and follow any emergency instructions provided. I also respect and care for my clients' homes as if they were my own. I keep living areas tidy, bring in mail or packages if requested, water plants, and maintain a clean, peaceful environment. Throughout the stay, I provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can travel with confidence, knowing their pets and home are in caring, reliable hands.

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 have taken care of dogs since I was 12 and still love doing it. Dogs make my day better and I love spending quality time with them. I currently work a full time job as a amazon delivery driver, I normally have Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursday's off. I enjoy spending time with dogs on my free time. I have a fenced backyard with lots of room. I have 3 dogs both are super friendly and love playing. But if a dog ever comes over no matter the circumstances, dogs will never be left unattended and separated.

First time Rover user here and WOW, was I blown away at Bri’s updates, responsiveness, and most of all the love she gave Gunner during her drop ins while I was out of town. It’s so nice to have peace of mind that my fur baby was taken care of and treated so well while I was away. I enjoyed getting photos and videos of Gunner enjoying his time. Will definitely ask Brianna again!!

About: My childhood was surrounded by dogs. When I was 12, I had to completely take care of 4 pit bulls, a Dotson, a mixed breed medium sized dog, and 3 cats. I have watched a few friends and family's pets over the years. Before I moved here, I actually helped my cousin take care of his senior husky with low energy that needed shots for a medical condition and a 2 year old German shepherd with all the energy in the world. My foster mom also bred pugs for a living, and have had to help the momma pug give birth while my foster parents were gone. I also have a 4 year old female Black Mouth Cur named Ava, that I have had since 6 months old, and a 2 year old male pitbull terrier rescue named Bosco, that I have had for a year and counting. He is full of fear and needs a lot of patience to work through it, but after 5 months of touch and go work, he now knows what play is and has his own toys! He also is scared to eat or seems to not know what his feeding bowl is, but after different ways to show that feeding time is okay, he is slowly gaining the weight he should be at! Treats were his sweet spot for knowing it is a safe place, and my sweet Ava sped the process for getting him comfortable in his new home and now commandeers my clothing to sleep with in his bed. Due to Bosco being a rescue and has become very protective is why I can't offer in home sitting in my home but am open to dog sitting at client's homes. I am currently a new stay at home mom. I take care of my two boys and my two fur babies. I am more than ready to help others with their fur babies. Due to behavior of one of my dogs, I would not be able to comfortably care for your fur babies in my own home, but I will do the utmost care for your fur babies in your home! Give me all the rules you need followed; Outside during certain times, feeding strategies, don't sit in a certain spot or area in the home. Nothing is too much to handle! I have even taken care of dogs with potty issues and needed baths for their health care and hygiene of your home.

Arin was so nice and friendly - the perfect fit for some drop in visits for my two cats while I was out of town for the week. Not only did I know they were in caring hands, but Arin was also sweet enough to help put away a food package that arrived (that I definitely forgot about cancelling ?).

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Fernley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fernley on Rover is $26.75 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 824 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fernley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fernley stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fernley. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 pet, 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.

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.
