“Scooby was treated like a king! Kayla’s kids always made sure he was nice and comfortable. Her husband took him on runs and he was made to feel like part of the family. We will definitely use Kayla again.”
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Plum!! It was a big help knowing she was in great hands with people who care about her. She’s looking forward to returning! Thank you!”
“James was an absolute fantastic sitter for our dog snoopy. We loved the daily activity James had with snoopy and the care he put into our treasure. Will definitely use James again.”
“We had our Maltese, Beau, stay with Miranda for just over a week. She kept us up to date about how he was doing. Actually, he made friends with two cats, which was a surprise to me. Beau was comfortable at Miranda's place. He was happy to see me when I picked him up, but I think he had fun staying at Miranda's.”
“I've used a lot of people on Rover and I've always been happy but this time I am extremely happy he did such a great job with communication my dog was extremely happy and I couldn't ask for a better person to watch my dog”
“Mike was a true gift during a very emotional and busy time. With family in town for my father’s funeral, I needed a peaceful place for my dog Bo to stay for a few days. Mike and Shari welcomed him into their beautiful, woodsy home—with picture windows that Bo immediately wanted to look out, and a calm, comforting vibe. When I picked him up at the end of his stay Bo was a relaxed and happy dog! Thanks guys!”
“Kirsten and her family are wonderful furbaby sitters. Bodhi always has a great time while he’s there and comes home exhausted! We enjoy the pictures she sends and know that he’s having fun, while we are too!”
“Sent videos throughout vacation. Picked up Mister and he was fed, as well as in a happy mood. Good compliments about playing with other dogs we appreciate. Would book with Miriam again. Affordable and great location. ❤️”
“Stacey took excellent care of my golden and kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was happy, safe, and well-loved, and playing with her adorable goldens! I would absolutely book with Stacey again and highly recommend her to other pet parents!”
“Ruslana took very good care of Nora. We reached out to her last minute as the need came unexpectedly and she was very responsive. She understood her needs and made sure Nora followed her schedule. Ruslana also asked questions when in doubt. She sent us photos and videos regularly. Definitely earned a repeat client.”
“My pup had the best stay with Celia and her family. She was very kind from the start and accommodated us last minute. From the pictures she took I can tell he was well taken care of. Looking forward to booking again. If you want your pup to have a blast, book with Celia too! You won’t regret it.”
“We are so lucky to have found Meagan! She provided tons of pictures and updates and absolutely showered Bear with love. He came home so happy and we had total peace of mind on our trip.”
“Tomas is my number one go-to dog watcher! My dog is shy, but he gave her space to approach at her own speed. Now a few visits later, she is clearly happy to stay with him, and I can tell from the photos that she feels happy and relaxed there.”
“Yuna and her husband gave my kitty such loving attention and love throughout his stay. Lots of updates and making sure he’s as comfortable as can be. We’ll definitely be back!❤️”
“Michelle and Samuel are the absolute best! My dog pit mix, Lazarus had the best time with their personal dog, which are BFF now! They send multiple pictures and videos all through out the day as they would include Laz in the daily walks, hikes, and fetch time, so I always know what he is up to (Helped Moms separation). Absolutely going to recommend Michelle and Samuel to friends and family, if they need a dog sitter. Don’t Think It Gets Better!! ??”
“I was so worried about leaving Ziggy but Elizabeth made sure he was treated as family!! I got daily photo updates!! She was extremely easy to get hold of if I needed. Ziggy was such a happy boy!! He even learned to get along better with dogs and her sweet little boy!! I am beyond thankful for Elizabeth treating my little one as family and for making sure he was well taken care of!!”
“Kenny is the BEST! Our dog can be very anxious, but Kenny made him so comfy and feel so loved. We got great updates and a nice sleepy pup at pick up. Will absolutely be using him again! Thank you!!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fernwood
Our dog had a blast on the farm and she didn’t want to leave. Kayla and her family treated Millie like part of the family. We loved the photos of her snuggling with them on the couch after a long day of playing with other dogs outside. The perfect property for dogs to run and play. Easy, great communication during the whole 12 day stay. We will book with them again!
Alex did a great job watching our 3 pups! She sent lots of photos and kept us updated on how they were doing. She was flexible with pickup and drop off times as well. We felt comfortable knowing our pups were staying with her! She has a large yard with plenty of room to play. Highly recommended!
We love Tiffany. We never go on vacation unless she is available. She sends pictures of my pups having fun, messages how they are doing, and gives them loads of love and attention while they are away from their family. Her home is always clean, the backyard accessible, and plenty of toys and pup sleeping spots. We highly, highly, recommend Tiffany! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We feel so fortunate that Lisa was available to care for our pup . Lisa asked thoughtful questions and was easy to work with. Although we had a meet and greet beforehand, I was surprised at how relaxed Shasta was when I actually dropped him off to stay. And, when it came time to pick up Shasta, he seemed right at home--there was no dashing to the door to make his getaway! I highly recommend Lisa, she provides a safe and comfortable environment for her pet guests, and peace of mind for us humans.
Khayl is wonderful to work with and took such good care of my boys! My son-in-law recommended her to me and now I know why. Khayl has been so accommodating, friendly and gave us plenty of updates and videos of them while we were gone. Will definitely be using her services again! Thank you Khayl!
Melissa and her family did such a good job taking care of Luna for a LONG 17 days! Luna is high energy and needed a place to feel safe but also a home away from home, and Melisaa provided that. She sent daily photos of Luna. Luna loved playing with her sons and Wishbone, the family dog. We will use Melissa again and recommend you give her a try!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Fernwood 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 Fernwood.
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.
You and your Fernwood 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 WA 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.
