“Lainey loved her stay with Amanda! Amanda sent me lots of photos and kept in good communication. She took our dog out on walks and did lots of outside time with her. She was also flexible with pickup time for us!”

“My dog could probably give a more accurate review, but from what I experienced, Michelle was great to work with. She was very accommodating and flexible. Looked like my pup got plenty of excercise and was well cared for. The drop-off/bath services were a big perk, saved me a lot of hassle. Thanks Michelle!”

“We boarded our 130lb Great Dane with Elisabeth for just over a week. He is new to boarding and has not been socialized with other people or dogs much. Elisabeth excepted this challenge and succeeded in making him comfortable. She also throughly dealt with an emergency issue that required vet attention during his stay. I highly recommend Elisabeth and her Swansboro Vacation Care for any of your boarding needs. Thanks Elisabeth for your care and effort while boarding our dog.”

“Dongjun and Minkoung always take such great care of Kumo! He’s so comfortable with their family and is always so well taken care of. We’re always very relieved when we go out of town because we know our little guy will feel right at home.”

“Blair has been so great with my border collie Kemba! Kemba is typically very sensitive and sweet, but doesn’t always open up to new people right away. But with Blair, he instantly loved being around him and even slept on his bed! Kemba is so comfortable at Blair’s place and I feel incredibly comfortable leaving him there, especially with all the updates and photos Blair sends me throughout the day! I’ll definitely use Blair as a sitter again.”
“Cameron did a great job with Yogi! He communicated well and sent pictures with updates. He asked questions about Yogi's needs and what to expect as far as his behaviour. He gave Yogi a few hours to decompress before being introduced to the other dogs in the home. Very professional and mindful...would definitely bring Yogi back and highly recommend Cameron!”

“Pam was so great. She took care of our 12 week old puppy, Jackson and he had a great time. He absolutely loved Pam and was completely at home. She was great with him and got him out to socialize as well. Thank you Pam!!!”

“Kimberlee and her two boys took excellent care of our pup! She was very accommodating of our "flexible" pug who, surprisingly, can jump up onto tables and bathtub rims. Kimberlee also met with us ahead of time to make sure that our pup and her dog got along. She sent us photo updates throughout the day as well. I would highly recommend!”

“I'm glad I found Michael and Patricia. Josie felt at ease with them right away so it made me feel good about leaving her with them. They are a wonderful couple who really care about dogs. I rarely go out of town, but if I ever need a sitter for Josie in the future, they'd be the ones I'd book a stay with.”


“With our permission, mine took knomi to the beach, as usual, she had a blast, he kept us up to date and laughing with great photos and storyline. Some times I wish I was being taken care of by Mike because I think my dog leads a more exciting life that I do while we are away, thank you again Mike!”

“First overnight for our puppy with Ruby and her family! As with the last time Cusco spent time at Ruby’s home, he got so much love, attention, and playtime. I received many photos and videos while we were away, always making us feel comfortable and giving updates! I know Cusco is already looking forward to going back :) thank you, Ruby!”

“Derek and his family were so hospitable to Winnie. They sent many pictures and were very responsive with any questions asked. This was my first time using rover and Derek and I will definitely use their services again.”


“We’ve boarded our dogs Joey and Rocco with Haley multiple times, including a recent long three-week stay, and she is truly amazing. She treats them like her own, sends regular updates and photos, and gives us so much peace of mind whenever we’re away. It’s very clear how much genuine love and care she and her family have for the dogs, and Joey and Rocco always come home happy and relaxed. Finding someone you can completely trust with your pets is rare, and we feel really grateful to have found Haley , we would absolutely continue booking with her and highly recommend her.”


“I'm so happy I found Sohui. She watched my 1 year old shorkie, and I will definitely use her services again. I love that all of the dogs she watches are small. Her yard is sufficient. And my dog got a great amount of exercise and socialization.”

“Sara was amazing! Not only was she so sweet with our doggo but she lives on an amazing property which is a dogs paradise. Her dog Shadow was such a great playmate , and we received tons of photos while we were out of town. We will definitely book with Sara again!”

“Sharon and Henry were absolutely wonderful with Tony! They were incredibly attentive, caring, and communicative throughout his stay. They sent us so many pictures and kept us updated on everything — how he was sleeping, eating, his potty routine, and how he was doing overall. Their updates made us feel like Tony was right there with us even while we were away. It was so reassuring to know he was getting so much love and attention. We’re incredibly grateful to Sharon and Henry and would absolutely trust them with Tony again. Highly recommend! ❤️🐾”


“Diama and Cody have a wonderful yard and home and were very welcoming to my 11-year old dog. I felt totally comfortable leaving her with them, and I know she was well taken care of!”

“Tale'A is professional, knowledegable and friendly. She and her family welcomed our dog into their home. He was well cared for during his stay. We will deffinately go back again.”

“We had Kaya stay with Sam for a week while on vacation and she had an awesome time. Sam is amazing. We received daily updates with pics so we knew how she was doing throughout our trip. Kaya is energetic and Sam was great about giving her the exercise she needs through daily walks and visits to the dog park. He loves animals and treated Kaya like one of his own. It was clear she loved Sam and was well taken care of.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 746 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Fornis. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Fornis 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 Fornis 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 Fornis.
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 Fornis. 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 Fornis 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 CA 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.
