“Nicholas was able to accommodate my very last minute booking, handling pickup and drop off with no issues and kept me fully up to date! Milo returned from his care in much better spirits than he has with other sitters or boarding experiences. Will absolutely book again!!”
“I am so glad I found a great sitter, Stacey through Rover. My German Shepherd, Xavier had a good time at her house. Very professional, a lot of dog experiences especially large breed dogs. My dog enjoyed walking off leash with her at her huge property. We booked again already for our vacation next month. Thank you so much and see you soon!”
“Erin was amazing. As a first time user of these services, I was hesitant to utilize these services. I also did not want to board him with limited time of attention. Erin was very responsive and provided numerous photos and feedback every single day without prompting. Duke loved his time spent there and would highly recommend utilizing Erin in the future.”
“Angeline was great we got pictures every day and most important Chelsea was happy We had left her at a daycare/kennel previously and she quit eating and it took her almost 2 weeks to get back to normal. We are planning on using Angeline again if her schedule is open in April”
“Jeannine was absolutely wonderful taking care of my two dogs, Rosie and Sasha. From the start, her communication was excellent, keeping me updated with adorable photos and videos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. Her space is great with lots of room for dogs to run and play. It’s clear Jeannine genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter. Thank you, Jeannine!”
“Melissa and her family are simply wonderful. Our girls had the time of their lives. The yard is great and fully fenced, the family dogs are incredibly sweet, and everyone pitches in to care for the pets staying with them. We got regular updates throughout our trip, which made all the difference. Leaving our girls is never easy, but knowing they’re with their family makes it effortless.”
“I’m so grateful that Megan and William were able to take Betty last minute and were so flexible with our plans! They kept me updated with pictures throughout her stay, which gave me great peace of mind. I also really appreciated them taking Betty for a walk and giving her such great care. I would definitely recommend Megan and William to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and thoughtful sitters!”
About: I got my pup at 8 weeks old. She’s 5 years old and is well behaved and trained. I have been super hands on with her in terms of grooming, training, and playing. I work full time 9-5 M-F. I am able do drop ins before and after work. Weekends I am usually free. For overnight stays I do have to bring my dog with me. She gets along great with other dogs and cats! I try to take my dog for long walks in the afternoon. I try to take her to the park or hiking at least once a week and would be happy to bring others along as well. I do work a full time, but typically have full weekends free. I am able to drop in before and after work to walk, feed, and play with your pup or cat! I try to make sure to keep within the routine that is set forth by my clients. My apartment is dog proofed as I never want my own pup to get into anything, so if we have a visitor they are also unable to get into anything!
“EXCELLENT!!!! Thank you so much for loving on our dog while we were away. Liberty liked being with you and the other friendly dogs so much that I am sure she is missing them now that she is home. We will definitely be using your services again and again. Thanks for all the pics and daily updates too! Our family enjoyed seeing them each day. We missed her so much but could relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that Liberty was having an absolute ball with you.”
“Angela and Joseph were absolutely wonderful with Amelia and Zelda! From the very beginning, they were kind, attentive, and incredibly caring. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dogs were in such good hands.”
“Wonderful experience for both our pet and for us. Enjoyed our visit and we could tell by the pictures they sent that our dog enjoyed her time with them as well. Highly recommend. We have found our dogs new home away from home.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, from young puppies to adult dogs. I administer medication to my own friendly dog twice a day, so I’m comfortable incorporating medication schedules into a dog’s daily routine. I’ve also cared for an 8-week-old puppy for an extended three weeks while the parents were international, which gave me experience with the extra attention, patience, supervision, and consistency that young puppies need. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love while making sure your dog feels safe and comfortable. I can also walk dogs together when their temperaments, leash manners, and walking needs are a good match. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own! I work part-time remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Since I’m home most of the time, I can give your pets plenty of attention and help keep them on their normal routines. My son has a few evening activities that typically last about an hour, but otherwise, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs. I love being able to provide pets with dependable, loving care and make sure they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting them in their own home, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I work part-time remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for drop-in visits to check on pets, provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, administer medications when needed, and offer playtime, companionship, and cuddles. In my home, I have a friendly, animal-loving dog who enjoys having company. I keep plenty of toys and treats on hand to keep pets happy and entertained, and I can provide a crate or a separate room if a pet needs their own quiet space. I also have a yard with a dog-run tether for supervised outdoor time. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to help them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medication, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own!
“Somdipa watched my Boston terrier, Dude, while I went on vacation for a week, and everything went great! I felt confident that he was well taken care of the whole time. Dude didn't want to leave, so I could tell he had a fun time. Would be very happy to have Somdipa watch Dude again in the future!”
“Colette and her family are super dependable and our dog (who hates traveling in my wife's car, associated with long family trips and vet visits) actually loves going to their house for a stay (this trip is almost always in my car). So thankful for getting to know this family and for their care for Faith.”
“I’m so glad to have found Cassandra to watch my dog when I go out of town! She is wonderful! She provides regular updates and photos, and is very prompt in replying to messages. I book with her every time I am out of town now and my dog always comes back really happy and relaxed, and I know Cassandra and her family take such good care of him. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Excellent pet watcher!! I highly recommend. They were very responsive, and flexible. My cat T-square had a blast at there place. He was loved, groomed, and cared for, as if he was with me! ❤️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fernway
Jena & Nick were absolutely wonderful with our very nervous dog. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience with Rover. They went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and at ease. We loved receiving daily photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Their adorable pup, Sebastian, was the perfect playmate and helped make our dogs stay even more enjoyable. It’s clear that Jena and Nick genuinely care about the pets they watch and treat them like family. We can’t say enough positive things about them and would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate pet sitters. Thank you!
An absolutely wonderful experience. They take the dogs into their home with them and their property is awesome with more than enough room for any size dog to get exercise. They update you with photos and videos as your dog runs and plays with the others. Highly recommended.
Erin was just wonderful while my cavalier was with her for a couple days. She communicated very well and I knew right away Mowgli was in good hands. Mowgli played really well with Mako (Erin’s dog) and they got along very well. I will definitely again board with Erin and choose her for future dog sitting.

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.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Fernway can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Fernway home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Fernway.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fernway. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
You and your Fernway sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 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 PA 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
